The Hour of the Dragon

A secretive cabal gathers in a candle‑lit chamber, their eyes fixed on a jade sarcophagus that has just cracked open. By invoking an ancient rite, they summon a long‑dead magician whose very presence seems to pull darkness toward the stone doors of the room. The ritual’s success is both awe‑inspiring and terrifying, as the resurrected sorcerer awakens, his blank stare hinting at powers far beyond mortal comprehension.

The four conspirators—each driven by ambition, fear, or curiosity—must now contend with the consequences of their forbidden act. As the ancient enchantments flare and unseen forces press against the chamber’s doors, the fragile alliance among them begins to fray. Listeners are drawn into a world of shadowed sorcery, where the line between power and damnation is razor‑thin, and the looming threat of a forgotten evil promises to reshape the fate of all who dared to awaken it.
