The young dracena lets out a startled gurgle, surprised by the blood flowing down her throat—her own. She turns a bewildered look toward you, as if asking why you killed her, before collapsing. Her body twitches in spasms for a few minutes, but she finally lies still, permanently.

An anecdote to pass the time:

Dragon's blood is an extremely toxic and acidic compound.Any contact with the skin will cause a severe burn that can gradually melt the entire body if the blood is not quickly washed off.Grass, insects, and even the smallest animals die rapidly near this toxic substance.Do not believe the legends claiming that one can become invincible by bathing in dragon's blood: many extremely powerful adventurers have died this way, demonstrating the folly of this myth.
