The Crystal Guardians of Iecruinia
There are 4 sacred Dragon Guardians, which usually represent an element. Fire, Water, Earth, and Air are the main elements. Some have also been Light, Dark, and Moon Dragons.
The reason for these sacred crystals is because they keep the floating islands of Iecruinia afloat.
The Dragon Guardians have only been around for the last 1,200 years due to attempted gem heists during slaver and poacher raids. During the attempted gem heists, thieves would break for the sacred temple that housed the crystals. They were usually stopped by one of the Dragon Gods, but after one too many close calls; a special group of 4 dragons were chosen to protect the crystals.
These Dragon Crystal Guardians were given special abilities from the Dragon Gods themselves and were worn to protect the crystals as well as Iecruinia with everything they had.
After the borders were closed off from traders and other foreigners, there was a brief period of peace and the Guardians took shifts to pursue things outside the temple. This peace only lasted for 10 years before a strange woman with crow-like feathers sought the crystals for herself as she proclaimed herself to be the next Dragon Queen, which was impossible for species to become.
The Guardians fought this woman, sealed her away, and peace was restored. For how long, no one knew. But the Guardians knew this person’s seal would break over time and she would return. Which meant they along with the Dragon Gods needed to be on guard.
