Challenge #04452-L068: Way of the Dragon

This is a strange place where students are taught to fight. Not the ways of the shadow, but how to fight like the dragon-born. The teachers do not care that most of the students here are not, and were never dragons. Or that there are all races. All they care is that these youngsters, and some adults, are their students. And they will help others who are mistreated stand on their feet once more. -- The New Guy

Places like this are almost always out of the way. The students tend to need a lot of room for their training, and that kind of acreage is only found in obscure locations.

This one had a lot of its acreage inside a mountain. Because this Dojo was one for the Way of the Dragon.

A time once was that a Dragon took in foundlings, so they say. Some others say that the Dragon sired or bore them. Drakkonbred were the first, no matter what people say about how it started. They were not Dragon sized, and therefore needed to fight on their own terms.

A good education is like a virus. It's pretty much designed to spread. Knowledge shared is strength that unites both teacher and student. And if the teacher is really good, they're willing to learn from the student.

Challenge #02669-G112: The Immortal Master

Some humans fight with blades, those who live on worlds that allow it, use firearms. Or for those aboard stations and ships, crossbows. Me? I refuse to use any of that. My body is my weapon. Sure I carry a utility knife, don't most of us? But it's never been used to draw blood. With a single blow I can knock a man down, with a well-placed kick I can knock over a being the size of a tree. My hand, small
