Erador 101: The Na’Geena
In the early days, before Nu’reen created the three Na’Geena swords, they were just another tribe of Erador: no better, no worse, but they did have the ability to tame Griffins, and no one can explain that. If the Griffins could talk, we might know. But for whatever reason (maybe it was fallout from Thane taking the Mark of Yang) the Na’Geena have been masters of Griffins ever since.
Griffins are sworn enemies of Draggons, but we’ll discuss that later. The important thing to remember is Griffin claws (and beaks) are the only natural things that can penetrate Draggonhide. The Na’Geena use the claws of fallen Griffins to fashion axes, but Griffins don’t die that often, so the supply is running low.
Na’Geena is an Old-Eradorian word; it means “The Shield”. And so they have been for countless years. The first line of defense between humans and Draggons. Fierce warriors trained to kill from a young age. They have no fear, and defeat is not a word they understand.
The Draggons give them plenty of room.
I’d really like to read this series. And those covers are stunning!
