Chapter 3390 (1/2)
Many people have heard of the dragon race, and they are ruled by the ”Dragon King”. But most people don't know what the word really means. For the priests of Talos order in Tianji province and the whole continent of Tyrell, this is a kind word, although he was not allowed to be believed by his ancestors after the Treaty of platinum.
Most scholars on the mainland agree that this word originated from the contract of akatosh. When the blessed St. Alecia was given the Amulet of kings and the dragon fire was first lit in the first church, ”akatosh pitifully watched human beings struggle. He took precious blood from his heart and blessed St. Alecia with the dragon blood.
At the same time, he signed a contract: as long as alexia's clan remains faithful to the dragon's blood, akatosh will try his best to seal the door of annihilation and prevent the army of the dead and the demons from taking refuge in their enemy, Alec, who has deep feelings for the demons. ” These people who were blessed by akatosh with ”dragon's blood” are called ”Dragon Descendants” for short.
The rulers of the Empire were concerned with all this from the beginning. Only those who had the blood of the Dragon could wear the amulets of the kings and spit out dragon fire. All the legitimate rulers were of dragon origin - the emperors and queens of the first empire of sirodel, including the founder alexia; Rayman sirodel and his descendants; and, of course, Taber septin and his descendants, all the way to his present majesty, pelagios septin IV.
However, due to the special connection between the Dragon lineage and the royal family, other meanings of the Dragon lineage were deliberately covered up and finally forgotten by the public. However, scholars and all the priests who devoted themselves to serving Talos, the former Taber septin, have never forgotten that the Dragon lineage is not just a simple blood lineage - it is the blessing of akatosh.
This way of giving is beyond ordinary people's understanding. Those who become emperors and can spit out dragon fire are naturally dragon descendants - spitting out dragon fire and wearing the amulets of kings are evidence. But is it because they are born of the dragon race that they can do these two things - or is it because of the blessing of akatosh? People can only say: maybe there are both, maybe there are none - no one can answer these things that the gods know.
In the same vein, septin was obviously of dragon origin, which also led to the popularity of a hereditary concept of simplification. However, it is also known that the earliest rulers of sirodir were not all related by blood. There is no evidence that Rayman sirodil is a descendant of alexia, although in countless legends he is. You should know that most of these legends come from the age of Rayman, perhaps just to legitimize his rule.
It is known that the guard of the blade, usually appeared as a royal guard, first came at the end of the first era, when a group of expeditionary soldiers invaded tamril from akaville for some unexplained reasons. They seem to have been looking for a dragon descendant - something that happened in cangyuanguan suggests - and the soldiers in akaville first claimed that Rayman sirodil was a dragon descendant. In fact, it was the soldiers of akavier who put him on the throne. In addition, there is obviously no blood relationship between Taber septin and the former Dragon Kings.
Whether there are two dragon descendants at the same time is also a mystery. The royal family tried to avoid this topic, but the succession to the throne clearly showed that there could be two or more Dragon Descendants at the same time: the emperor and his successor.
The history of the blade guards also suggests this - although their activities in the period of the imperial power gap before the rise of the Lehman Dynasty and Taber septin are little known, many people believe that the blade guards have been constantly finding and protecting these people who are regarded as descendants during this period.
Finally, people come back to the real meaning of dragon origin. Their connection with the dragon is so obvious that it is often forgotten - after all, today the dragon is a distant memory, and people forget that being a dragon descendant in the early days means having ”dragon blood”.
Scholars believe that the blood of the dragon is worthy of the name, although its true meaning is unknown. In the story of the Dragon heroes told by the Rhodes, they are great dragon killers who can capture the power of the Dragon they kill.
