Malidi has researched this monster called the immortal serpent. Well, why won't he? Anything with Immortal in its name was the target of his research, which made Dragon the perfect research subject on his end.
The issue was, the history of this Dragon was far deeper than one might have expected, his origins even more wild than Malidi expected.
How it attained its immortality when even its totem couldn't do so, well that was a mystery in of itself. But the other part of the mystery was how it keeps being reborn in the same place again and again to no end. Well for that, Malidi did visit the origin land of Dragon, though alone without Heroth's consent or his knowledge.
And what he found there was something wondrous. 'A corpse.' A corpse that existed in two states together, one illusory being the majority of the body and the real, being the mountain peaks of Verna island, turned out to be the scales of this beast.
