You decide to go meet Dusted. It's an interesting name, and you wonder what kind of creature it could belong to. Whatever it is, the signpost points to a burrow near you. You walk over, and climb into the hole.
You seem to be in a big room. There's no light whatsoever, and the only sound you hear is your own breathing. Suddenly you hear the scraping of talons and, before you can think, you are sharing the burrow with a dragon.
You freeze, staring at the magnificent yellow creature. Its shoulders only come up to your hips, but it's still a fearsome sight to behold. Its yellow eyes focus on you, and narrow as if to ask why in the world you're here.
Greetings, a soft voice says in your head. What brings you to my home?
"Oh!" you say, startled at the telepathic message from the dragon. "I'm exploring Dracogrex, you see, and I thought it'd be interesting to meet you...." You trail off. The dragon seems impatient with your lengthy reply, so yuo close your mouth hastily.
Kind of you, the dragon thinks shortly. My name is Dusted. I am a KingdomDragon. I live here in this realm because I enjoy the element of seclusion it offers. You see, my parents and siblings died in a fierce fire several years ago.
"Oh, that's horrible!" you cry, hoping to console the poor dragon.
To your amazement, Dusted shrugs. I've gotten over it, she says simply. There's no use dwelling on what cannot be changed. Amaryllis gave me a home here after I was found by Miracle and placed up for adoption. I live a happy enough life here. Now, she states, rising to her feet, you may take your leave. I grow tired. And Dusted is gone.
Blinking at the abrupt departure of the pale yellow dragon, you rise to your feet, and return to the signpost.
