    Return to Bryn Mairwyn (A Short Story)

    Thousands of years ago dragons soared above the earth on powerful wings. They reigned over the sky until a cataclysmic war led by dark magic users destroyed them all... all but precious few. Those who survived had to hide among humans disguising their true identity. Unless they return to the land of their heartstone, they are destined to forsake their chance of carrying on.

    In present day England, Desmond McKenna is tired of the loneliness and isolation of his dreary existence. Will a new discovery change his mind about finally giving up, after all this time? Will the hills of Bryn Mairwyn call to his ancient soul, or will he simply fade into the fate that is mortality?

      CHAPTER 1

      As the plane descended through the clouds, Desmond McKenna stretched wearily and glanced out the window to the sprawling land below. Misty rings hung over green hilltops, morning light just beginning to break over the grey of dawn and the rugged, Northeastern English countryside spread her welcoming arms from below. The pattern of the terrain never changed; only the industry that slowly encroached upon it masked the face of the hills and valleys. He leaned against the window, a long salt-and-pepper lock of hair falling over his forehead, and greeted his familiar friend, this land.

      Thirty-five years, his mind whispered. But really, for you, thirty-five minutes.
