Is late, short version. Seeking a story on mcstories about a dragon that turns princesses into living gemstone slaves. Been searching far too long, any help appreciated.

Is this something you know exists or do you need help to find something like it?

No, I know the story exists. It should be a two chapter story. I just don't recall the name, so checking if it WS familiar to anyone else.

Hmm. That's a bad sign as well. I can't bring up the story octopus vulgaris. does anyone know the author of that one, did they pull their work perhaps?

Found it! It was a story by Thrall that I assume was pulled, called Hoarders. For anyone interested, since it's a very nice f/f story, a rich text document version: www.dropbox.com/s/ajy74kd78kccggp/Hoarders.rtf

I recall reading Hoarders. It was a good story, though spent too much time on the "what happens next?" aspect of it, where the dragon goes out and conquers the world basically.

Did they really pull it? Why?

A bunch of the stuff they pulled seemed to be to sell on amazon in e-book format. Octopus Vulgaris and a few others are there, though I didn't see hoarders.
