Father Amends - A Callum story/The Dragon Prince

Dreams

On a full moon night back in Katolis, after they believed that Aaravos didn't have another chance of getting out. Callum was fast asleep being cuddled by Rayla.

As always he was drooling on his pillow.

As he was being cuddled and drooling there were slight pictures in his mind as he was sleeping.

Even asleep he could hear a voice in this picture -y dream. Somethings were slight blurry but others were clear.

He could clearly see his mother holding him as a newborn, but... there was another person in the dream that for some reason he thought that other person was familiar to him.

Finally, he got a glimpse of a man. Sitting right by his mother, Sarai.

"Callum... I think Callum fits him," He heard his mother say confidently.

"I think it does too," the mysterious man said.

Then he knew. That man right next to his mother... was his father.

Callum then popped up from his pillow wiping drool sleepily from his face.

Rayla groaned.

Callum knew he had to wake her up. He had to find out if his father was truly alive.

He slowly leaned over to gently rub her arm.

"Rayla... Rayla... Rayla wake up," Callum said softly.

Rayla groaned slowly opening her sleepy eyes.

"What... what's going on," Rayla said yawning.

Rayla gently rubbed his shoulder.

"Uh... yeah... uh... I think I just had a wierd dream that my mom was with my dad when they had me," Callum said looking confused but yet that's what he saw.

"Wait... Harrow... or your real dad?" Rayla asked pulling herself up on the headboard.

Callum looked at Rayla.

"My real dad!" Callum said suprised.

"Callum! I thought he was...," Rayla didn't want to say the word.

"What if... what if he isn't... what if this is telling me he is still out there!" Callum said with confidence.

"I will be right by you, whatever you decide, no matter what!" Rayla said hugging Callum.

Callum wanted to know. He wanted to know if his real father was still alive. But that would mean leaving Katolis on a huge search. But it's worth it as long as Rayla was with him, he knew he could do anything.

"Would you come with me to find my dad?" Callum asked still hugging Rayla tightly.

"Of course! wait... do you even know his name?" Rayla said.

"I don't but I can try to find some old papers that my mom would have stored somewhere!" Callum said.

"Need some help?" Rayla asked.

"Yeah... might need some extra help anyway!" Callum said excited to start looking.

"Hey! If he's still out there! He will be so glad to see you! I believe that!" Rayla said looking at Callum.

Callum smiled. He had wanted to know for so long who his father was, and now he finally has the chance.

The chance to reunite with his true father again.
