I want to preface this manuscript with this:
Only some rough draft versions will be added as manuscripts on World Anvil; other versions will just be shared as Google Doc links. In light of the first birthday of the Legends of the Dragonguard world, and the fact that what I wrote for NovelEmber 2024 is public anyway (just not in an easy-to-read format), I have decided to put the NovelEmber 2024 Rough Draft version on World Anvil.
This is the first "rough draft" of the Legends of the Dragonguard story. It's not even quite a rough draft, as it is cobbled-together story elements, which is why none of the chapters have numbers. While this isn't necessarily the order these chapters will go in, they do kind of flow one after another as is, more or less, so I've arranged them as such.
This was written during the first NovelEmber event on World Anvil in 2024. I rewrote some of the prose I already had, and expanded the story after that, so the beginning is probably a little better than the later parts. Some of it was to get to the 20k word count by the end of the month, so I used some ideas I really wanted to be in the story, which is why some of it may seem a little out of place.
Everything in this manuscript is subject to change. (I have updated the manuscript to reflect newly created characters and such that I didn't have names for at the time of writing)
