​Welcome to Emerald Dragon Tales, home of the String-Along. The String-Along project is a collaborative effort where multiple authors, in locations around the globe, come together to tell a singular story.

GUN

The citizens of Salem suffer more than their fair share of life’s ills. Murder. Mayhem. Jealousy. Greed. But when a mysterious handmade Gun shows up on the scene, nothing will ever be the same. For this Gun has its own moral code. It will never fire to do evil, only to do good.
