The Dragon Heir

Dragons.

To say that my people were obsessed with them would be an understatement.

Dragons, to them, are a ticket to getting rich, to getting fame.

Dragons, to me, are beings just like us. They are struggling alongside us. Hey are trying to find and make a way of living in this world. They are our friends.

They are only our enemies when we threaten their way of life.

"No you can't! NO-"

"How do you know that I can't? How do you know that?"

"I know because someone has already made these promises and they failed me! I can't put myself through that again! I can't open my already destroyed heart! I can't let down my walls for anyone, not even-"

"Then I'll tear those walls down. One at a time. Brick by brick. And stone by stone."
