Memory:Ancient blue dragon

This dragon sneers down upon you with contempt. You meet its gaze, and sense the treachery and greed of this terrible foe. Its nearly crystalline scales gleam in the flickering light cast by the electric aura which crackles continually around it. There is a hum of power in the air which makes your hair begin to stand on end. The dragon begins to chuckle ominously as it slithers closer to you. An admirable beast. The mighty wings unfold with a noise like a thunder-clap. Rich blue scales scrape against each other, striking sparks. Static condenses on the sharp spikes studding the dragon's back, then flows along the scales in thin scintillating currents, concentrating at the head in an almost solid emanation around the nostrils. You sense an immanent tension and feel an urge to turn on your heels and run for it.
