The Dragon Lords takes place in a mythical land called Cherydrine, which is ruled over by three kingdoms, Olmec, Hargost, and Grandor, where two young adventurers, Sir Stuart Richards, and the spell caster, Maryinda set off on an epic venture beginning in the kingdom of Olmec to fight and hopefully slay an evil dragon called Morlak. On the way they meet many interesting creatures and people, many of whom cannot be trusted as much as they seem. Once they find Morlak and he engages them in battle Richards learns something about himself that he had never known before, something both wonderful and horrible.
