---------------------------
Gwynnen prepared himself for an important time, the time to train Midir.
Midir had always been a lone beast, never helped by anyone, always the first on the abyssal frontier, eating away at the void.
No matter the place, no matter the event, Midir was always there as a guardian.
And now, he was officially going to be a rider dragon.
Gwynnen's old dear dragon from his nameless days was no more, it perished in battle against a Certain Someone.
So, they got to work.
-"...I beg of you, cooperate to your best ability.
Off we go..!"
Gwynnen steeled himself onto Midir's back, and Midir took off.
The special thing about the dragons from their world is their ability to comprehend, they were not mindless creature of legend.
Midir instantaneously seemed like he was part of Gwynnen's conscience, following his every word, his every thought even.
It was a majestic moment, flying over the Dragon's Peak, it threw Gwynnen far back into the past, into deep, almost forgotten corners of his brain.
The moment seemed so far-fetched, so out of place, for what they have been doing and thinking for the past while.
It was the first time Gwynnen had ever felt "Inner Peace" at its core.
Maybe they were destined to be like this? A dragon's destiny, you could say.
Gwynnen decided to explore further, he needed to get a simple layout of the lands surrounding the Dragon's Peak.
Not much detail surrounded Gwynnen in his old days, but, from what you could gather from the barely left behind evidence of his existence, you could obviously tell he loved dragons, that's the whole reason he was exiled in the first place.
An old bard's tale even has someone who is in obvious parallel to Gwynnen romancing with dragons, though, even that tale was long lost.
Flying closer to the ground now, though still at immeasurable heights, Gwynnen realized how awfully vast these lands are, they could easily dwarf the lands of his father's rule.
Hours and hours went by of them just spending time in air, and Gwynnen had begun to realize that it was time to return, though, he had not realized he was already spotted by a civilization or two.
In the east of the continent, where the darkness gathered above a mighty castle, the nation of Jistav laid.
On his route through the continent, Gwynnen passed through the Great Jura Forest, slightly missing a newly found settlement that was bustling.
He took a turn west, and kept going that way, eventually reaching the aforementioned land of Jistav.
Jistav; the land of complete silence, ruled by the infamous Demon Lord Clayman.
Well, silence wasn't exactly that, it's just that compared to the rest of the world, Jistav no longer possessed the role it once used to fill.
Once it was glorious, now, a shadow of its former self.
