Teurco and his prodigious dagger

In very ancient times even before the great universal flood, there was a great hero named "Teurco" champion among champions, lord of the kingdom of "Draconis" and this is his story: In that glorious and legendary era an unprecedented event happened In the history of mankind, a gigantic flare broke off from the sun, touching the ground as if it were lightning. This phenomenon burned a thousand hectares of farmland and the peasants who worked as if they were dipped in oil.

In that terrible moment a great famine spread through the area and road thieves emerged as flies in putrefaction. Because of this, no one traveled to the "burnt territory" that is what they called it; In this cursed land arose the powerful hero Teurco among the powerful. In those times Teurco hunted dragons with just a dagger and his big heart and in one of his works he found a gigantic dragon spits fire called "Golk", the powerful one that upon seeing him attacked him with such fury that his huge head got stuck between gigantic oak trees.

The hero with feline agility had evaded the ferocious attack of the beast and taking advantage of the opportunity crossed with his dagger the only weak point of the monster: his huge abdomen soft and without scales, which angered the great reptile breaking the powerful oaks as if they were wax candles, the brave hero did not flinch in the least and opened an immense furrow in Golk's abdomen where flames escaped from his seething entrails, the dragon with his last breath of life told his executioner " I am afraid that my name will be forgotten forever as I am the last in my lineage "to which the hero replied:

"From my account runs that your name is never forgotten because my dagger will baptize you in your honor carrying your name, bathing it in your blood to have your essence and power, your death will not be in vain because your flesh will feed my hungry people , that is why my people will chant Golk, the powerful in your solemn burial and you will be remembered forever. "

That said, the noble beast let out a tear and died in peace; just at that moment Teurco bathed his dagger with the blood of the magnificent beast and with a solemn voice shouted:

Your name is from this moment Golk !, your essence the fire !, your end the glory!

All the people participated in the solemn burial of the bones of the dragon Golk, more than ten thousand people among men, women and children. A huge granite slab was placed as a tombstone with the following inscription:

"To the fallen enemy but not overcome".

During the funeral something incredible happened, the scorched earth began to bloom becoming a beautiful garden; After the funeral in a solemn ceremony, the hero Teurco was named king amid applause and ovations. His first decree as king and lord of those lands was to declare the day of Golk's death as the day of the foundation of the new kingdom which he named Draconis.

But the times of peace and joy would not last long because the following year the king of Thole a giant named "Nerbo" of four meters and four arms of a race already extinct, challenged the king of Draconis to a fight to the death, the winner would annex the kingdom of his opponent to his; our hero refused to shed blood just for greed. Before the refusal the giant amount in anger and threatened the kingdom of Draconis with destroying them with their fearsome army of giants if they did not agree to give him the mysterious power of the dragon they possessed.

Before this new threat Teurco accepted the challenge to save his people, set the fight for the next day at noon and the weapons to be used would only be daggers at the request of King Teurco who blindly trusted in his weapon bathed in dragon's blood. That night before the fight Teurco could not sleep because of the importance of what was at stake, so all night he spent cleaning Golk and singing old songs already forgotten.

At last the time of the most important duel of the kingdom of Draconis, both contenders were placed face to face pointing their respective daggers to intimidate, the champion of Draconis made the first move nailing his Golk dagger in the leg of the giant with such force that He shattered the bone in his right leg, forcing Nerbo to fall to the floor injured and incapacitated for combat.But the race of the giants is not cowardly so he threw his huge dagger of five cycles of weight against the face of the hero of Draconis, but he evaded it with a skilful movement of his head, leaving his own and strangers speechless.

The unarmed and helpless giant recognized his defeat and exclaimed: "You have defeated me, your warrior is my life."

The powerful champion of Draconis replied: "Life is a precious gift that I respect even from my enemies so your life will be respected."

Upon hearing this the giant said: "Well earned you have your fame and your glory will be eternal."

Thole's army upon seeing this overwhelming scene knelt in recognition of their new king. Both kingdoms merged creating a powerful empire that received the name of "Great Draconic Empire".

With the passage of time this story was forgotten, but the adventures of King Teurco and his prodigious dagger Golk are innumerable until his heroic death that gave rise to a new continent where the magic weapon is buried to this day.
