Remnants of The Six & The Copper Dragon Part 1

{Excerpted From the DragonPort weekly (and perhaps world's only) Newspaper, The Tattler} The following is a translation from Old Dwarfish into the common tongue, from the Original Source Material provided to the Weekly Tattler, and this reporter. The following report,  be it truth or fiction, was found to be a scroll on a kind of vellum not seen since the time the old Lands were young; a scroll that washed ashore inside a rather large wine bottle, magically corked. Your Reporter of Tales Tall & Small: El-Ray P. Dodds Presents: The Last Dwarf In the Old Lands ,  A Memoir by Rusilka Muntansdottir , Last of The Old Dwarves . Part II Remnants of The Six & The Copper Dragon This is the second of my “scroll in a bottle histories” of my band of companions and our trek from the headland of the Old Lands across the ruined cities, and the desert, swamps, jungles and ultimately the Sea, and beyond the so called New Lands to
