DESCRIPTION
The Azhdarchid that Stole the Sun
The life-giving celestial flame vanished down the beast's gullet, and continued to glow even while nestled in its gut. Foolishly a military airship charged at the giant creature in an attempt to cause it to relinquish its meal, only to be effortlessly snapped up whole and make the same trip down its neck that their Sun made moments before.
The vessel and its crew were promptly melted in the crucible that was its stomach, but its real prize would take much longer to process. With a triumphant and echoing belch it departed for its lair where it would hibernate and digest, leaving the kingdom with only the starry sky and the reflected light of neighboring lands for illumination.
