She vanished without a trace, leaving only the book behind. They gathered around it instinctively, their gazes settling on its battered, nearly disintegrating form—a relic worn down by time. Its leather cover was cracked and dry, the pages frayed and fragile, utterly devoid of the brilliance one might expect from a mystical tome. Violet tilted her head, brow furrowing with doubt. " Didn't she say this book was supposed to have magic? It just looks like some old, forgotten thing you'd find shoved in the back of a library."
Aeron studied it more carefully, his fingers grazing the worn leather cover with reverence than disappointment.
" Maybe it doesn't work the way we expect," he drawled. " There could be a specific way to activate it."
Starfania glanced at him, intrigued but still confused. " What do you mean?"
He gestured as he spoke. " Think of it like a tool. Just because you have a hammer doesn't mean you can instantly build a house. You need to know how to use it first."
Violet crossed her arms, eyeing the book with renewed curiosity. " Alright then...how do we even open it?"
Aeron furrowed his brow, running a hand along the book's tattered spine.
" There has to be a trick," he muttered. " Magic books usually don't just open like regular ones."
Violet leaned closer, examining the worn edges. " Maybe there's a hidden clasp—or a spell keeping it shut."
She traced one of the intricate patterns along the cover, then abruptly pulled her hand back as a faint warmth pulsed beneath her fingertips. " Okay...that was weird."
Starfania took a steadying breath and reached for the book herself. The moment her fingers brushed the intricate silver coiled around the letter on the cover, the creature stirred.
Its luminous eyes snapped open, locking onto hers. The air thickened as ancient energy surged outward, pressing against their chests. Before she could react, the dragon peeled itself from the page, slithering toward her outstretched hand. It bit her. A sharp sting shot through her finger as a few crimson droplets welled up. Starfania gasped—but before anyone could speak, the silver dragon returned to the book. It inhaled deeply—then exhaled a vibrant orange flame that bathed the tome in a brilliant, ethereal glow. Starfania's heart raced, caught between shock and awe. She glanced at Atlas, who rubbed at his ear with a low rumble, his expression caught somewhere between bewilderment and intrigue.
His scales continued to shimmer faintly, betraying excitement tempered by caution. This was no ordinary book. The surrounding air crackled with charged possibilities. As the glow softened, Starfania noticed words forming on the cover, the title shimmering beneath the dragon's resting form: The Draconic Codex
A sense of urgency settled deep in her chest. Atlas nudged her gently, still rubbing his ear. His emotions brushed against her—curiosity, readiness, and something like recognition. The silver dragon perched atop the book watched her closely, its gaze sharp and knowing. Starfania leaned closer, her bitten fingers still tingling.
