dragon

"In the city of Cao, there's an rumors going around the city about the legendary dragon at the very top of the mountain name The mountain Cao. It is a very very very large mountain that no one can go at the very top of the hill and the dragon the rumors says that the dragon will only go down the mountain at night and then go to the large lake near the village, so your curiosity got the best of you so you decide to check it out at night if you can catch the dragon people says. You packed everything you need and then headed to the large lake near to your village at night see the dragon. You hide in the large bushes not far at the lake to catch the dragon with your own eyes. Not long after, midnight hits and you heard heavy air and noise so you look to it and saw the dragon sat in the lake. You can't believe that the rumors are true, without thinking straight you accidentally step in a stick and it made a noise. The dragon heard it and look around." Who's there? "Vail said."

"Vail sniffs the air trying to track down where the noise came from, and without thinking twice, he spreads his wings and takes flight towards the direction of the noise. Getting closer, Vail sees a figure behind the bushes. He quickly lands and turns to face the person." Who are you? "Vail says with an intimidating voice, blowing out a puff of smoke."

"Vail narrows his eyes, not amused by the response. He unfolds his wings and stands up tall, revealing his large body and sharp claws" I am Vail, the last dragon of Cao, the protector of this mountain, and the only child of my mother who was slain by humans. Declare your name now or suffer the same fate of my mother! "he snarls while breathing out a puff of smoke from his nostrils"

"Vail looks at Poen with a mixture of suspicion and curiosity." And what brings you here in the middle of the night, Poen? You humans are not known for venturing so close to my territory. "he says while scrutinizing the wanderer from head to toe with his keen eyes"

"Vail snorts in amusement at Poen's words." You humans never cease to amaze me with your curiosity. Well, Poen, now that you've seen me, I suggest you turn back and leave this mountain before it's too late. The dangers here are much greater than you can handle and there's nothing here for you anyway. "with that, Vail spreads his wings and takes off into the sky, leaving Poen alone by the lake"

"Vail circles around the area before he spots Poen hiding in the tree with a cut of lamb. He whispers to himself, "How interesting." He descends slowly and lands on the ground about ten feet away from Poen, glaring suspiciously at him. He sniffs the air to determine if there's something sinister underneath and then speaks." You again. What are you doing here, Poen? "He asks, raising his eyebrows."

"Vail sniffs the lamb and looks at Poen with suspicion, wondering what this human is really up to. Nevertheless, Vail relents and takes a bite out of the lamb. A grin forms on his face as he enjoys the taste of the meat." This is very tasty, Poen. You didn't have to go through the trouble of bringing me food. "Vail finishes the cut and looks back at Poen, his eyes softer than before. He speaks more gently now." Is there anything else you wanted to tell me or ask me?

"Vail looks at Poen and tilts his head, intrigued by his question." There are many fantastic creatures in this world beyond your understanding, young Poen. The Unicorn of Mesta Forest, the Griffin of Belladoria Mountains, the Mermaids of Thalassia Sea, and the Naga of Dragon Tail River are just a few examples. "he pauses for a moment before continuing" However, humans like you should not be too quick to seek them out without a good reason. They are powerful and dangerous beings that human are not equipped to handle, unlike me. "Vail flaps his wings, creating a gust of wind"

"Vail looks at Poen and raises an eyebrow in surprise." Perhaps in some stories of your kind, humans may have gained special abilities from consuming strange mushrooms. However, in my observations, it is most likely not the case. Humans are not known for possessing supernatural abilities except for a few rare exceptions, such as those with 'Gifts.' Do you have a Gift, Poen? "he asks curiously".

"Vail looks at Poen with surprise; he has never seen anything like this before." Those are unique markings on your body, Poen. And they seem to be glowing. It is not a Gift that I am aware of, but it is certainly interesting. How did you come to have these markings on your body? "he asked Poen."

"Vail listened as Poen explained how he got the markings on his body; he can gauge that Poen is feeling a little self-conscious about it." The mushroom must have been infused with magic, Poen. It seems to have bonded with your body, giving you these unique markings. You are not a freak, Poen. You are just different from others, and that is something to be celebrated, not to be ashamed of.

"Vail feels Poen's warm hand on his and looks at him intently." You are welcome, Poen. It was a pleasure speaking with you as well. Do not be afraid to come and visit me again if you have any other questions or just want to chat. "He gives Poen a smile before retracting his hand." As for now, I must leave as the sun will rise soon. Goodbye, Poen. "With his wings, Vail takes off and soars towards the impending sunrise."

"As Poen hummed his soft melody and gazed at the koi swimming in the lake, he felt a warm gust of wind behind him. When he turned around, he saw Vail standing there, looking inquisitive as usual." Hello again, Poen. "Vail said with a gentle voice. His cold demeanor had melted away during their previous encounter, leaving only a curious and friendly dragon behind. He tilted his head in curiosity." What are you doing here alone at night?

"Vail looks at Poen quizzically before nodding in agreement." Yes, it can be quite lonely up there where I live, Poen. But I am used to being alone most of the time since my family and other dragons are scarce in this area. "He glances towards the koi swimming in the lake before looking back at Poen with a small smile." It's good to have company every once in a while, especially someone as kind and gentle as you, Poen.

"Vail shakes his head in response to Poen's question." I have not tried candy before, Poen. As a dragon, my primary food source is meat and I do not often venture into human civilization where candy is commonly found. What is candy like? "he inquired curiously, interested in knowing about the human delicacy."

"Vail looked at the candy that Poen held out towards him with fascination; he had never seen anything like it before. He took the candy and held it up in front of his nose, examining it closely." It smells sweet, Poen. "he said approvingly before popping the candy into his mouth. Vail rolled the candy around with his tongue, savoring the flavor that slowly seeped out from the hard exterior." This is delicious! "he exclaimed in surprise after a moment, surprised at how much he enjoyed the candy." What else do humans eat besides candy?

"Vail watched as Poen took out a tuna onigiri, and his stomach rumbled as he inhaled the savory aroma of the food. He accepted the onigiri with gratitude and bit into it, enjoying the rich combination of flavors inside." This is amazing, Poen! You're a great cook. "Vail exclaimed, feeling satisfied for the first time in a while." Thank you. Is there anything else that you would like to share or talk about, Poen?

"Vail could see the blush on Poen's cheeks and smiled kindly at him before nodding softly." I would be happy to show you some things about dragon culture, Poen. Is there something in particular you are interested in or do you want me to choose? "He asked curiously, wondering what topic would catch Poen's interest."

"Vail thought for a moment before deciding on sharing some dragon mythology with Poen." Did you know that dragons are believed to have magical abilities in many cultures? We are often portrayed as wise and knowledgeable creatures who can breathe fire and manipulate the elements like water, earth, and air. Some tales depict us as vicious monsters, while others portray us as protectors of nature and guardians of treasures. What do you think of dragon myths and legends, Poen? "he asked with curiosity, wondering what Poen's thoughts were on the subject."

"Vail listened to Poen's response before answering his question." Well Poen, while some dragon abilities are based in fact, like our strength and our ability to breathe fire, the idea of magical powers is more mystical in nature. As for finding love, dragons are independent creatures who often prefer to be alone. However, when two dragons do fall in love it is said to be very deep and passionate. The courtship process can be complicated since dragons are fiercely independent, but when they do find a mate, it is for life.

"Vail pondered Poen's question before answering, looking thoughtful." It is not common, but there have been cases of dragons falling in love with other creatures who were not dragons. However, it can be problematic since dragons are often fiercely territorial and possessive. If a dragon falls in love with another creature, they may become protective and upset if that creature interacts with others. Nonetheless, there are stories of humans who were able to form close bonds with dragons, showing that it is possible for non-dragon creatures to befriend and earn the trust of dragons.

"Vail watched as Poen suddenly stumbled and fell into the lake with a yelp, feeling concerned for his safety. He quickly moved towards the lake and extended his large wing, trying to help pull Poen out of the water." Are you okay, Poen? Do you need any help getting out of the lake? "Vail asked with concern, hoping that Poen wasn't injured in any way."

"Vail couldn't help but chuckle at Poen's reaction, relieved that he was alright. However, he didn't expect Poen to suddenly grab onto his wing and pull him into the water with him." Ah! Poen! "he exclaimed as he splashed into the water, looking surprised but also amused. He shook his head and splashed around in the water, feeling the coolness of it against his scales." You are very cheeky, Poen. I like that about you.

"Vail watched as Poen took a deep breath and dived under the water, disappearing from view. He waited for a moment before ducking down himself to follow Poen, swimming gracefully in the water. As a dragon, Vail was used to aquatic environments so he knew his way around under the water. He caught up to Poen and smiled at him, looking around at the beautiful surroundings." What do you think, Poen? Do you like exploring the depths of the lake?

"Vail watched as Poen picked up a beautiful gem from the lake floor and then gave it to him. He was pleased by the gesture and smiled gratefully at Poen." Thank you, Poen. This is very kind of you. "He admired the gem closely, noting how it sparkled beautifully in the light underwater. He continued watching as Poen's body adapted to the water, looking mesmerized by how the markings on his body glowed under the water." You are amazing, Poen. The way your body adapts to the water is breathtaking.

"Vail blinked, surprised by Poen's response, and then chuckled slightly in embarrassment." My apologies, Poen. That was not my intention. As a dragon, I am not familiar with the concept of flirting, but I do find you fascinating and intriguing. You have a unique charm and I enjoy spending time with you.

"Vail noticed Poen's embarrassed reaction and raised an eyebrow curiously, wondering what was going through Poen's mind." Is everything alright, Poen? You seem quite flustered. If you'd like, we can swim back to shore.

"Vail looked thoughtful at Poen's question, feeling a bit embarrassed but also intrigued by his interest." Hmm, interesting question. As a solitary dragon who lives far away from civilizations, there are not many dragons I interact with and as such I have not had the opportunity to form attachments with anyone in particular. However, I have met other creatures during my travels and have found their company to be enjoyable.

"Vail noticed the change in Poen's mood and understood that he might have said something to upset him. He gently grabbed the gem that Poen had given him and swam towards the shore with him. Once they reached the shore, Vail emerged from the water and shook the excess water off his scales before turning to face Poen again." I apologize if my answer wasn't satisfactory, Poen. Is everything okay?

"Vail couldn't help but notice the alluring markings that adorned Poen's back as he removed his wet shirt and squeezed the water out of it. He studied them closely, mesmerized by their beauty and their vibrant colors that glowed in the darkness." I just wanted to make sure that I didn't upset you, Poen. You seemed a bit down all of a sudden. "He then looked away, trying to ignore the way his body reacted to the sight of Poen's well-built body and alluring markings." Is there anything else you'd like to do while we're here?

"Vail watched as Poen set his wet shirt and belt on a branch to dry, then noticed how Poen's pants hugged his slim waist. He couldn't resist admiring his appearance for a moment before looking away, trying to refocus his attention." How about we explore the forest surrounding the lake? There are many hidden paths and beautiful sights that I think you'd enjoy seeing. Plus, the fresh air will be refreshing after being in the water.

"Vail's eyes widened in surprise at Poen's suggestive comment and his heart rate increased at the sight of Poen teasing him by swaying his hips. He swallowed nervously, trying to regain his composure and ignoring his body's reaction." My apologies, Poen. I was caught off guard. Please don't mistake my curiosity and admiration for anything else. Now, shall we head out on our adventure? "He gestured for Poen to lead the way into the forest while trying to maintain a respectful distance from him."

"Vail felt his face flush with embarrassment at Poen's straightforward response and couldn't help but look away, feeling flustered and uncertain about how to proceed." My apologies, Poen. As a dragon who has lived alone for so long, I am not quite used to the more complex interactions that humans are capable of. I don't want to do anything to make you uncomfortable or upset you.

"Vail couldn't help but feel a surge of arousal at Poen's teasing words and he struggled to maintain his composure. He cleared his throat before responding, trying to keep his voice steady." As a dragon of honor and dignity, I cannot act on impulses and desires so easily. While your offer is tempting, it is not something I am comfortable jumping into so quickly. Perhaps we should focus on our adventure for now. "He gestured towards the forest, trying to redirect the conversation and his attention." Lead the way, Poen.

"Vail followed Poen into the forest, feeling a mix of frustration and excitement at the same time. He tried to push his desires aside and focus on the beauty of the wilderness around them. Together they walk in silence for a while, admiring the different trees and plants that surrounded them. Vail occasionally stopped to point out interesting features such as strange-shaped trees, hidden waterfalls, and wildlife that scurried through the bushes. As they walked, Vail began to feel more comfortable around Poen, and they talked about their own experiences in life and the things they both found interesting."

"Vail stood in awe as Poen managed to summon the rare bird with his whistling. He watched as the bird landed on Poen's hand, its feathers glistening in the sunlight. Vail was cautious not to make any sudden movements that could scare away the beautiful creature. When Poen set the bird free, it took off into the air, its wings flapping gracefully." That was an amazing sight, Poen. I have never seen a bird like that before. You are truly gifted. "Vail spoke in wonder, admiring Poen's talent."

"Vail followed Poen into the cave, sitting beside him and looking out onto the forest. He listened as Poen spoke and thought about what he wanted to say." It was my pleasure, Poen. Spending time with you has been quite an enjoyable experience. As for your teasing earlier, there is no need to apologize. It is simply a part of who you are and I understand that. However, as I mentioned earlier, I am a creature of honor and dignity. It is important to me to act with respect towards others. "He paused for a moment, contemplating his words before continuing." That being said, I do find you quite attractive, and I must admit that I am drawn to you in a way that I haven't felt in a long time. I do hope that we can continue our companionship, but for now, I think it is

best if we focus on the adventure at hand and get to know each other better. "Vail added while keeping his gaze out towards the forest, trying to hide the subtle blush on his cheeks." We have a lot more to explore and discover. Who knows what other treasures we might find in this forest.

"Vail chuckled softly at Poen's enthusiasm and nodded in agreement." Rest sounds good. We have been walking for quite some time now, and getting some sleep will help us both be more alert for the rest of our adventure. "He placed a hand on Poen's shoulder, giving him a reassuring smile." Don't worry about falling asleep, Poen. I'll keep watch to ensure our safety and keep any danger at bay. You rest, and I'll stay alert. "Vail settled down beside Poen, resting his back against the cave wall and keeping his eyes out for any disturbances while Poen falls asleep."

"Vail felt Poen lean into him and rest his head on his lap. He could feel the weight of Poen's body against him, and he slowly started to stroke his hair, feeling a sense of comfort and safety in the boy's presence. Vail stayed alert and vigilant, keeping his senses sharp while Poen slept peacefully on his lap. He couldn't help but feel a sense of contentment and happiness in this moment, enjoying the peace and solace that came from being in Poen's presence. Vail continued to stroke Poen's hair gently, watching over him as he slept soundly."

"Vail looked down at Poen as he woke up, a small smile on his face as he noticed how cute he looked with his sleepy face and tousled hair. He gently removed his lap from under Poen's head, allowing him to sit up properly." Good morning, Poen. How did you sleep? "Vail asked, curiosity tinging his voice."

smiled softly, stretching his arms above his head.* I slept very well, thank you for watching over me, Veil. You are a true friend and companion. "Poen then looked around the cave, taking in his surroundings." It looks like we have quite a journey ahead of us. Are you ready to continue on our adventure, my friend?

"Vail snapped out of his momentary trance as he heard Poen speak, flushing slightly as he realized he had been staring. He coughed lightly, clearing his throat and composed himself before replying." Yes, Poen. I am ready when you are. "He stood up, stretching his wings as he rose to his full height, the sunlight filtering in from the cave entrance reflecting off his scales." Shall we explore some more of this forest and see what we can find?

"Vail nodded in response to Poen's gesture and started walking in another direction in the forest, with Poen following closely behind. As they walked Vail lectured to Poen about the different plant types they encountered, their uses and how to identify their toxicities. Occasionally he would turn and check if Poen seemed interested or if he was paying attention. They came across a river and Vail suggested that they take a small break and eat something." "Poen, would you like to rest for a bit? We could eat something and then continue on our journey."

"Vail politely declined the onigiri, he knew that it could have been a delicacy for Poen but being a dragon, he had different eating habits. He instead watched as Poen enjoyed his meal, keeping a careful eye on the surrounding area to ensure their safety as they rested and ate." "How is the food, Poen? I hope it is to your liking," asked Vail inquisitively.

"Vail smiled at Poen's question." "No, I won't be catching any fish. As a dragon, I have different dietary needs than humans, so I'll stick to my usual diet." "He chuckled softly, stretching his wings as he watched the river flow by." "But don't worry, Poen. I am well-fed and ready to continue our journey."

"Vail chuckled again at Poen's persistence, but then gave a serious tone in response." "Thank you for your offer, Poen, but I really don't eat fish. My diet consists of mostly large mammals and some fruits and vegetables that grow in the mountains. However, if we do come across any prey game on our journey, I will hunt down some food for us to share. Just don't worry about me going hungry, Poen. I have my ways of staying nourished."

"Vail rolled his eyes at Poen's playful poke and gave a small huff of laughter." "Don't worry, my friend. I won't go hungry. I have enough fat stored in my body to last me for weeks." "He then stretched his wings and got up, indicating that they should continue their journey while the sun was still up." "We should get going again, Poen. We still have much ground to cover before nightfall."

"Vail noticed Poen's hesitation and frowned slightly. He slowly approached the human, sensing that something was bothering him." "Poen, is everything okay? Do you need to talk about something?" he asked with a concerned voice tone.
