The lines of gold and grey

"Some people fear the sea, thinking its nothing but a void for trouble, nothing good will ever come of it. But for others its a trove full of mystery and wonder, full of land for the taking.

But there have been rumors getting resurfaced, rumors of a pirate, taking down every ship in sight, though there was never anyone to confirm such things, as rumors, need actual evidence to back it up in one way or another, all thats there is a scale, and a piece of fabric to back the rumor up.

Of course, i should know,,, why don't you follow us on our journey, to get to the bottom of who this 'pirate' is, its a long one, so why don't we get into a ship, and find the truth ourselves, yes?"

The tv was abruptly shut off followed by excessive grumbling, some dragons swarmed around in bustling giggles. The dragon in the center growled out at the others, "what do you four find so funny about this? Its just some fake rumor to hide some ruse. I'm sure of it, in fact i KNOW it is..." the giggling ceased followed with collected scoffs and huffs. "Ivory what makes you so sure that this isn't your doing?" Was all that was heard, the words coming out of none other than the blue dragons mouth. "Do you think i would mask myself as a pirate and kill off mortals that way?"

Silence filled the room quickly...

"That's what I thought, now if you don't mind, i am going home, you have all exhausted me with your antics." The ivory dragon stood up and left without another word, they then walked around for a bit before stopping to eavesdrop on a conversation between two sailors.

"Haven't you heard?"
"Heard what?"
"They are having a world wide bounty hunt on that pirate everyone has been gossiping of!"
"Cookies are really believing that silly folks tale?"
"Of course, there's also a large sum of pay for whoever turns him in first!"

"Now who's to say that pirate ain't a chick!?"
"Everyone knows pirates can only be men."

The ivory dragon gave a smug look as the conversations went on. Walking into the water quietly and swiftly, before they swam off to their temple.

I do apologize for the lack of manners i have with introducing who this is! This is one of the main characters. The infamous, myth themself, Longan Dragon Cookie. They are known for their cold stare and unmoved expression, their eyes are as golden and strong as the plated armor that they wear that has since been destroyed from centuries of hibernation. They also wear a heavy gown which hides their body, which is transparent through and through...

Longan had after a few hours, crawled themself out of the water, into their temple, where they slowly changed their form, the armor dropping to the floor of the temple along with their gown, fully exposing their body before changing into better fitted clothing.

This is the all-knowing dragons Allias, Longsat Cookie, as opposed to Longan, SHE is a fearsome ruler of the seven-seas, 'why' you may ask? Well that's because she is the pirate that everyone has it out for, what a hefty price to be held on her head, as she tied her hair back with a bandanna, topping it off with her captain's hat.

Her fins twitched as she looked over spotting her ship just coming into view, and with a smile, that longan would never be caught dead with, she ran off the temple and plummeted down, before grabbing a rope on the boat and carefully sliding the rest of the way down.

"Well today has already been a trip mates.." she pulled up the bounty for her out of her shirt, pinning it to the wall with a dagger, "a blank bounty hit for my head, instructed by the crème republic themselves! I am definitely worth way more than 2m coins... wouldn't you say?"

The crew bursted out in laughs as they agreed, making her smile darkly, her eyes glowing. "Y'all know the drill, you find the ship.... And. I. Sink. It."
