you are just like Eon in the same boat as "him" but you are not a women but you were raised by women and you were the only male in your family except for your father but little did you realize you were just as special as Eon..or...a little more spec...
No one knows how the first dragon I made their dangerous bargain with the 12 energy dragons of good fortune. The few Scrolls and poems that have survived the century start the story well after the deal was struck between the man and spirit beast to protect our land. It is rumored, however, that a black folio still exists to tell the violent beginning and predicts a catastrophic end to the ancient alliance.
The dragons are elemental beings, able to manipulate Hua-----the natural energy that exists in all things. Each dragon is aligned with one of the Heavenly animals in the twelve-year cycle of power that has run in the same sequence since the beginning of time: Rat, Ox, Tiger, Rabbit, Dragon, Snake, Horse, Goat, Monkey, Rooster, Dog, and Pig. Pete's Dragon is also the guardian of one of the twelve celestial directions, and a keeper of one of the Greater Virtues.
Every New Year's Day the cycle turns, the next animal year begins, and it's Dragon becomes ascendant, his power doubling for that 12 months is sending Dragon also units with a new apprentice to be trained in the dragon magic, and as these boys step up to their new life, the prior apprentice is promoted to Dragoneye and into his full power. He replaces his master, the old Dragoneye, who retires exhausted and fatally debilitated by his 24-year Union with the dragon. It is a brutal bargain that gives a Dragoneye enormous power-----enough to move monsoons, redirect rivers, and stop earthshakes. In return for such control over nature, the dragon I slowly gives up his Hua to his dragon.
Only those boys who can see an energy dragon can hope to be a Dragoneye candidate. It is a rare gift to be able to see the dragon of your birth year, and even rare to be able to see any of the other energy dragons. Every New Year, twelve boys, born twelve years before, face the sending dragon and pray that their gift is enough for the beast. One of them is chosen and in the moment of union----and only for that moment----all men see the dragon and all his glory.
Women have no place in the world of the dragon magic. It is said that they bring corruption to the art and do not have the physical strength or depth of character needed to commune with an energy dragon. It is also thought the female eye, to practiced engaging at itself, cannot see the truth of the energy world.
