Chapter 57 – Miko Claude
Chapter 57: Miko Claude Armored Dragon Calendar Year 418 – Claude, Age 13 --- I sat in my private quarters at the Arbalest compound. Attempting what I had never tried before. The room was dark. A single candle provided enough light to cast shadows across the walls. But not enough to distract.
