Fortunately for the dragons, the youngest dragon, Spyro the Dragon escapes being turned to crystal and so along with companion Sparx the Dragonfly, embarks on a quest to rescue and free all of the dragons across the various hubworlds within the Dragon Realms and defeat Gnasty Gnorc once and for all.Īfter visiting each of the Dragon Realms, freeing the trapped dragons, recovering all of the lost treasure and stolen dragon eggs and finally defeating the various bosses sent by Gnorc, Spyro arrives at Gnasty’s Junkyard World where he sets about confronting Gnorc. However, unbeknown to the dragons, Gnasty is watching the interview live on TV and so in retaliation uses a powerful magic spell to encase all of the dragons in crystal before sending out hordes of gnorc soldiers to take over the various dragon hubworlds. When the reporter asks of Gnasty Gnorc (pronounced Nasty Norc) who was banished from the Dragon Realms to the Dragon Junkyard long ago, the two elder dragons begin insulting Gnasty, referring to him as an ugly, simple minded creature who is of no threat to the Dragon Kingdom. The story begins in the Artisan home world (one of the five realms within the Dragon Kingdom) with two of the elder dragons, Astor and Lindar, being interviewed for a video documentary about their world.
