《Reincarnated As A Crocodile》Dragon Lore Part 1
Advertisement
You see in the dragon continent, Dragonair, home to the harshest environments and weather conditions on the planet, with extreme climates that change suddenly and can differ greatly within just feet of each other. As a result, only a relative handful of human individuals in the entire world are powerful enough to survive there.
While the Dragonair is incredibly dangerous and humans from the Human World have never been able to settle within its lands, there actually do exist civilizations within this hellish place known as the Ten Civilizations which were founded long ago by legendary dragons of the ten elements, who brought a race of ancient mutated humans and demi-humans.
Two groups are fighting for power over the Dragonair.
The DragonGaurd aka The Dragon Council
And
The DragonScorn aka The Dark Armies.
Fire Civilization
The dry, hot climate of the Fire Civilization stretches over a series of islands covered in volcanic ash and solidified magma. Constant earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and other seismic activities make for an unstable habitat.
Aggressive, yet simple-minded, Fire creatures are extremely confident and self-assured. They seek nothing short of complete victory over their enemies and show no mercy. The thought of coexisting does not occur to them only annihilation and eradication. Even when losing, Fire creatures refuse to surrender. They fight to the death proudly, knowing retreat can bring only shame and dishonor.
Fire creatures enjoy a good spectacle and love to show off. On the battlefield, they tend to overdress and overarm, to the point where the creature inside is no longer recognizable.
Water Civilization
The world of Water is half-land, half-sea. Inhabitants, who once lived only in water, have had to learn to adapt to both in their search for sustainable environments.
Because energy resources are more abundant there, cities are built in water. In spite of the oceanic depths, they are clean and bright, well lit by luminous bodies.

Every kind of rain falls on the mainland like the Mega Rain, Amedama, and the Poison Rain. The rains falling near the coast are relatively mild and not dangerous at all too dangerous types of rain like Laser Rain, Meteorite Rain, and Naplam Rain for example.
Wood Civilization
Dense jungle covers the largest continent, home to the Wood civilization. Here in the hot, humid climate, vegetation grows tall and thick and little sunlight is able to penetrate the vast canopy above. Nearly all flora and fauna are absolutely titanic in size, such that humans seem ant-like in comparison. The continent's trees are so large that they pierce the clouds above
To survive the oppressive gravity on this continent, Wood creatures have developed extraordinarily muscular physiques.
They practice the art of body tattooing. Designs often represent religious icons, based on their belief in animism or spiritual worship. The most commonly used symbol is an "eye."
Light Civilization
The Light world is made up of midair colonies, rich with resources and sophisticated technology.
Light inhabitants make their homes above the clouds on a group of floating islands. Unfettered by gravity, the central city is surrounded by many small satellite colonies. All the structures are similarly oriented in a right-left or up-down symmetry and are built of alloys and energy fields.
Darkness Civilization
The Darkness civilization resides in the underground part of the creature world and was ruled by Tyrant Black Monarch with an iron fist.
Toxic gas fills the air and total darkness envelops the vast underground world of the Darkness civilization. Here in this inhospitable place, lifespans are short, and inhabitants are consumed with the desire for immortality. Endless attempts to lengthen their lives have served only to spoil the land and contaminate their surroundings.
Wind Civilization
Overall, The Wind Civilization has a casual, laid-back atmosphere derived from their belief in freedom over all else.

Much of the wind world is constructed in Gothic style and has a gentle climate that allows crops to flourish.
Ice Civilization
The ice world is cold and slow yet within its borders lurks a vicious cycle that overwhelms intruders and punishes them for trespassing. The Ice creatures are fast and powerful like arctic winds. Coal, Wood, Steel, and Steam Cores are wanted in this frostpunk world.
Earth Civilization
Spanning an entire continent as well as several subsidiary islands, it is the largest and most populated sovereignty in the world and encompasses much of the eastern hemisphere. The kingdom operates as a monarchy under the rule of a king and queen.
The people of the Earth Civilization are proud and strong and adhere to a philosophy of peaceful coexistence and cooperation with the other Civilizations of the world
Metal Civilization
The Metal Civilization is the second-largest nation in terms of area, following the Earth Civilization, while its economy is the most powerful in the world; its strong industrial sector and extensive technological developments not only enabled the Fire Nation to create an extremely powerful military. They take great pride in their wisdom and mystic arts.
Thunder Civilization
Inhabitants of the Thunder civilization worship technology and going fast. There is only a single mountain that reaches the sky to the heavens.
The Thunder Civilization is covered by Cumulonimbus Clouds, also known as Rain Clouds and Thunder Clouds, which are gigantic dense clouds with a maximum height of 10,000 meters and are usually associated with instability in the atmosphere due to their production of dangerous thunderstorms. They are very common here.
The only place that is liveable here. Mount Draketon
Mount Draketon can be broken into distinct regions, as delineated by patterns in the rock and a marked increase in hazardous weather conditions, difficulty of the climb, and increased death rate.
The thunder creatures boast many skilled artisans, craftspeople, and merchants.

Killing Tree
When your day goes to hell and you find yourself kidnapped, strung up from a magical tree, and left to bleed out, what do you do next? Asking for a friend. Fortunately, Riordan Kincaid is a tough, gives-no-fucks honey badger shifter. Unfortunately, now that he's survived the first attempt, a death mage and their cult are determined to finish the job by whatever means necessary, pursuing Riordan across the wilds of rural Michigan. Ghosts and spirits are outside of his specialty, and heaven help him if he has to cast actual spells, but Riordan isn't going to make this easy on his enemies. Even if that means breaking his long exile, turning to the local shifter community for help, and dealing with a bureaucratic department of mages. And don't even get him started on getting licked by a damn spirit bear. Now he just needs to figure out what will kill him first: his enemies, his past, or his own attempts at using magic? Or will Riordan beat the odds and prove that honey badgers really are that hard to kill? If so, what will he do with a life once hung upon a tree that's more than a tree?

I decided that I will begin to release chapters once a week. A new chapter will be released every Friday. I will also release an extra chapter every 3 days after reaching basic goals. Every 10 follows, 10 favorite 10, ratings or 10 reviews up to 100 of each will result in a bonus chapter. That is up to 40 bonus chapters!!! This will give me motivation. I will get to see if my novel is something people want to read. Thank you for reading my novel and feel free to join the discord. I just created it and it is completely empty =D https://discord.gg/DA2FTtu
