The sorcerers of the God Learner Empire seek to learn the secrets so they can plunder them in the persuit of personal power. What the dragonewts really think about all this is unknowable. They continue to travel the world, conducting their rituals and magic. One thing is absolutely certain, the dragonewts are still powerful and if they were ever angered their fury and those of their dragon forebears would bring disaster upon all who would stand against them...
