Discoveries and Adventures
A few minutes later, I was sitting over the remains of my old home, in dragon form, not caring who was outside to see me.
I was tired of being cooped up.
All the guards were gone; either fled, or…how shall I put it…rather dead?
My scales gleamed in the fire, and I was sort of proud of their luster.
I decided to take better care of them in the future.
My mind sighed when I realized that now most of the escaped guards would go running to Simon.
I don’t even want to think about the consequences.
The stars were beckoning and the wind was inviting, so I spread my wings and took to the skies.
It felt good to have the breeze in my face after so long.
I was, naturally, fast, for my species. Female dragons tend to be more delicate (but bigger!) and faster when airborne – we are easier to anger than males.
Why we’re larger? I have no inkling.
I intended to find out why – and more, about myself, about my kind, and most importantly : where my egg came from.
I shall find my kin!
