Beschreibung
Drach-Oc is first of all a story, a manga story. Author: Stefan Struik, born in the Netherlands, living in Malaysia. Artist: Darja Blinova, born in Estonia, living in Estonia.
Drach-Oc, a young fire dragon plagued by a lisp, flight troubles, and a complete inability to breathe fire, is far from your typical hero. Yet, destiny has other plans for him and his best female friend Mizuki, a water dragon. Their peaceful lives on Long Dao Island are shattered when Drach-oc's father is mysteriously murdered and his brother Riven is at first kidnapped by ruthless pirates. Driven by grief and a thirst for justice, Drach-oc and Mizuki embark on a perilous quest to rescue Riven and uncover the truth behind their father's death. Their pursuit leads them to the treacherous demon realm, ruled by the menacing Queen Abyssa. Riven is held captive by the grotesque cannibal mutant, Diaco, who has dark plans for the young dragon. Faced with unimaginable dangers, Drach-oc and Mizuki must overcome their own fears and insecurities to survive. Along the way, they forge alliances with a captivating cast of characters: Friedensan, the wise magician monk; eissan, the enigmatic albino dragon-witch; Loa, the fierce Drayry (a mutant elf dragon); Jinmu, the ancient mummy monk; and Kaito, the young but determined lieutenant of dragon nobility. As Drach-oc and Mizuki delve deeper into the heart of the demon realm, their friendship blossoms into a forbidden love, defying the rigid societal norms of their world where relationships between dragons of different races are forbidden in the natural order of dragon society. The unlikely heroes must now fight not only for their own survival but also for the fate of their dragon society, and perhaps, even love itself.
Drach-Oc is also a vegan chocolate brand. The chocolate will always be in certain shapes. We started with three different 3D dragon egg shapes. For now these are solid chocolate. We are only making vegan chocolate. So no diary products. To replace milk, we are using coconut milk. We don’t use artificial coloring or artificial flavoring. We only us natural ingredients, and mostly from our backyard, the rainforests of Malaysia and South East Asia. We source: Cacao beans from Cambodia, callled Bunong cacao, grown by Khmer (Cambodian) farmers and by the indigenous people of the region, the Bunong tribe. Pandan leaves from Malaysia, Coconut milk powder from Indonesia, Melon from Japan, Spices from Indonesia According to Dr. Robert Lustig, professor at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), white sugar can be considered ‘poisonous’. This is one of the main reasons why we don’t use white sugar but instead blossom nectar from the coconut palm tree The Bunong cacao beans from Cambodia, used in Drach-oc vegan chocolateare audited and certifified by the WSO (World Sustainability Organisation) as sustainable cacao. Therefore our chocolate can carry the ‘Friend of the Earth’ certificate by WSO
