You ask the group if that land is Korizan's shore. They reply that you are right. You ask them what exactly they should do next. Koriza says: "find my parents" she seems happy about this facet of her homecoming. You squint your eyes to look at the city in the distance and comment on it "Kor, is the city meant to look like a ruin?" You both know the answer. The city is in shambles from the war. Koriza seems sad again "that's the capital of the Korizan island. It is named Yanawa. " A tear rolls over Koriza's cheek. You think it is nostalgia mixed with worry. You tell Koriza that you already seen the beauty of Korizan. She doesn't know what you mean and you add: "you, Koriza. You are the beauty of the Korizan island" You get closer and hug her. Koriza smiles again and hugs you back. You call the rest of the crew to look at the land. They all seem enthusiastic about going onshore this time. You go to the edge of the ship where a plank awaits your feet. As you walk over the plank, you look at the water. A bunch of humans and red dragons surround you and your friends as you get off. Koriza explains that she is the princess of this land. Soon you can explore the city of Yanawa. Nobody seems to recognize Koriza for whom she is. "Hey Kor, let's enjoy anonymity while it lasts" you say. Koriza looks around while you walk through Yanawa. She seems to get more and more agitated. The city is heavily damaged, poverty and condemned homes fill the view. A lot repairs are makeshift. Even the guards are wearing scraps. Disarria and Endaklion seem shocked too. The guards start to yell at you. Koriza seems to have gotten their attention already. Koriza screams and curses at the filthy guards. "Do you not know who I am you fucking bastards? I am your princess! Prancing around in shit clothes while my people live in pure poverty?" The guards stand there in silence with their jaws dropped. You try to calm her down but she pushes you away. You look at Disarria and say "here we go again..." You intend to not intervene, Koriza is the princess after all. The guards however plead to Koriza that they do not recognize her. One of them says he thinks they captured an impostor and that she must be a lookalike. Koriza looks at the man with disgust.

"A look alike? I can assure you, you filth, I am your princess! And you are just a bunch of pathetic bastards that couldn't protect me from getting kidnapped! You clearly don't know your jobs!" You walk over to the group and add to what Koriza is saying. "I am a purple dragon, and so is this one" you refer to Disarria. You hope they at least know about the legendary status of the purple dragon. Disarria tries to look intimidating as you walk over. The guards seem to be very confused. You look around and see many people watching from the windows. Most of them don't say anything, they just watch. A few children shout "the princess escaped!" but are quickly hushed by others. a guard tells you that the princess of Korizan was born with a massive scar on her belly. Koriza displays that very scar to the guards. "Like this, retards?" She adds. A guard screams: "It is her!" He falls to his knees and begs for forgiveness. The other guards follow his lead. Koriza snorts in disgust. "I thought you were dead" one of the guards says. "Reports told us that the kidnappers cut your belly open and threw you overboard". Koriza just flicks her ears in a show of disregard and snorts again. You tell the guards this badass princess slain Malediction. You tell them to promptly fuck off and inform the palace you are coming! Then you drag Koriza to the carriage as she protests. In the carriage, Koriza says "I hate it when you do that, you always make it sound like I get killed a lot!" You just smile. Then she kisses you and whispers in your ear: "You are still the bravest and most handsome hero I know". Disarria rolls her eyes in the back of the carriage. Koriza tells her to fuck off, too. Disarria snaps back at Koriza "Enty is with Zalisi, stop being a whore by touching him all the time! Plus I call dibs on him if they ever break up" You teasingly smack Disarria's ass. She says: "That doesn't mean you can go around slapping it!" Koriza rolls her eyes at the pair of you. "He isn't yours, or Zalisi's, he is an independent being! Unless you ladies wanna share him...." You just blush and silence the debate by kissing Disarria, then hugging Koriza. Both ladies are pleased. You tell Koriza that this city, her home city, is the most depressing place you have ever seen. Koriza snorts and looks away from you "this is nothing like it was in my youth. Everything is ruined. My memories crushed." You hold her claw Disarria sighs "these people suffered a lot by the hand of Malediction's cronies. I hope the rest of Korizan island fares better" you nod at Disarria's statement. Koriza begins to speak again "I haven't been here in years...." she says. You know this must be hard upon her. The whole city is destroyed. The palace is wasteland. There are ditches filled with the rotting corpses of red dragon wyrmlings, soldiers and peasants. The stench and sight is atrocious. The city has a broken wall, and many buildings and homes have crumbled from weapons fire or just age. Disarria tells Koriza that you all should leave and forget this land. It is a dump. Koriza snaps, losing it! "Forget this land?! I was born here, my father was king here, and my fucking sister ruled here before she went fucking mad! I wasn't going to ever return but I knew one day someone would have to. Someone worthy." Koriza looks at you. Her eyes well up with tears. You try to hug her but she doesn't hug back. She just holds your shoulders and looks into your eyes "You can't save everyone, Kor" As you roll up to the Royal Korizan Palace, it is more depressing than impressive. The thing is full witch cracks and makeshift repairs. Koriza shakes her head at this. She adds "600 years of history, desecrated by the enemy just like that" Disarria looks at the palace with interest. She and Koriza argue about its condition. "I bet I could fix it up" she says. "Bullshit, you couldn't even do your own house" Koriza snaps. Disarria smiles and chuckles "you know you love me, baby" Koriza pokes her head outside the window to yell at the coachmen to stop. "What's going on? The coachman, an old human male, shuts down the steam engine of the carriage. He tells you how the Royal guard is suspicious as they don't expect visitors today. The road ahead is barricaded off by a metal gate. "We need to get in there!" The old man says "I'm sorry, you'll have to turn around.

The road is barricaded off." Koriza gets out of the coach and start walking towards the gate. You know she's going to create a scene so you run after her. "Koriza that was really unnecessary" "Stay out of this human" You apologize to the coach driver for Koriza's behavior and thank him for the ride. You then turn to Koriza and say "we could just invite ourselves, we got wings and can fly" "No we are not. I am a princess, I will not gate crash like some fucking peasant" You get angry and tell her she has no right to order you around after your ride here but she just ignores you and walks up to the gate. "I demand you let me in this instance!" She says angrily. The guards on the other side of the barricade look nervous at this point. You stay calm and so do Disarria and Endaklion. You tell the guard Koriza is the princess as she got the belly scar. The guard isn't believing you as they think Koriza died years ago. The coach driver even vouches for you all. You tell the guards that even a glance from the king and queen, Koriza's parents, would set this straight. Disarria adds "we are aware of the grave penalty for lying about this, please" The guard, still looking nervous, ask for you all to stay put and walks away from the barricade. You wonder if this is the right thing to do as Endaklion suggests that perhaps they're calling for royal army backup to kill all of you. You think back to the fake execution you had earlier as the guard comes back. "It's really you!" he says happily and hugs Koriza. The metal gate swings open as you are escorted to through the Royal Garden, more of a neglected weed pile. Koriza spots a statue of herself and runs over. She seems highly disturbed as she reads the plaque. "Princess Koriza. Last of the Royal Korizan bloodline. Missing in action, presumed dead" Endaklion states the obvious "Did you read your own grave?" You add to that "Kor, how does it feel to read your own... Grave monument?" You understand she must feel at least creeped out. She doesn't answer. She just puts her hand on the statue and stares at it blankly. You look around the Royal Garden, it used to be full of life, now there are only broken fountains, dying trees, and untrimmed hedges. You get a strange feeling looking around this neglected garden. You wonder what has happened here to cause such decay. You tell Koriza to come inside. It is time to meet her parents. The king and queen! As you walk down the halls of the ruined palace, tears roll down Koriza's face. Gentle tears of joy "it... It still resembles my childhood memories" she says. You pat her on the back and tell her she'll rebuild it all to be better than it was. "It's my home" she smiles softly, "and you're my family now". You blush at the thought. the four of you walk through the palace halls. After a while you arrive at a large door, the guard says you have to wait as the royals are having a meeting. Koriza slams the door open! A dozen or so bewildered faces look at you 4 and 2 larger red dragons in royal clothes seem to instantly recognize Koriza as their daughter. The female, the queen and thus Koriza's mom says: "am I losing my mind? Can you see her too? My daughter?!" The king adds: "Koriza! You... You live!" Koriza and her parents are overwhelmed by pure amazement and joy at this reunion. "Dad... Mom... I'm so glad to see you, but I have things to tell you. Things that are going to be hard to hear. But you must listen to me. The king , tears of joy in his eyes says that nothing can ruin this. You butt in "your wonderful daughter murdered Malediction!" You say, proud of Koriza. They all look confused, but the queen says "a dragon killed Malediction? He deserved it for killing my baby..." "NO! No! It was your daughter! And she did it for a good reason... She did it to stop Malediction's terror!" you explain. Koriza looks down at her feet, while the rest of them stare at her in confusion. "You mean YOU killed Malediction?" asks the king in disbelief. You nod at the king "Koriza killed Mal by crushing him under a statue. You explain how refined and genius her assassination plot was.

Her sister is properly avenged. The land free from Mal. The king hugs Koriza and sobs. "I always knew you'd save us.... I just wish your sister could see you now..." You are a purple dragon. You feel as if a great weight has been lifted off you. While you know that this reunion is important, you don't want to wait around here for them to finish. You got more important things to do, Endaklion is calling you. Endaklion tells you a servant was kind enough to prepare Koriza's old private chambers to use as a guest room for you. You, Endaklion and Disarria decide to leave daughter and parents be as you head there. You arrive at the chambers and as soon as you see them, you know that they were indeed once belonged to Koriza. They are filled with trophies of past hunts and great battles. You start looking through the books in her library, but it is all military stuff, battle tactics, strategies, and weaponry... Disarria takes one look at it, turns her nose up and says "boring!". Endaklion however looks through it. You tell them to be mindful of Koriza's items "stop that you cretins" you hiss. They look at you, then at each other and then back to you. Disarria finally says "this place is boring, can we go find a bottle of wine or something?" You tell her that you're not done here yet, and that you should stay focused. They eventually comply, and settle down on some feather cushions. As you search through the books, you find one with a dark blue cover embossed with a purple dragon. You figure this is what Koriza read to learn about purple dragons. You show it to Disarria and her eyes glitter as she speaks "that is one of the 52 first prints of the purple dragon legend books! They were too costly to continue! These are ultra rare!" Endaklion finds Disarria's nerd outburst hilarious. She pretends to be angry but you can tell she is flattered by his attention. Disarria shows you the book. It contains the same information you already know, but also an interesting story about how a purple dragon once took human form in order to understand humans better and fell in love with a human princess. The princess died before the dragon could save her, but he still preserved her image for all time in the stars. Disarria continues to rummage through Koriza's stuff and finds a purple dildo. She teases the both of you with it ,"look, Kor likes them small! She is perfect for you, Enty!" Endaklion facepalms at this crude display. You feel your face turn red. Then Disarria starts laughing, and then you're laughing, and then even Endaklion is cracking up. The tension broken, you all relax and enjoy each other's company for a bit. Suddenly the door opens and you see a blissfully happy Koriza! You greet Koriza "heya Koriza. How was the talk with your parents?" Koriza grins "It was good! They said I could stay here if I want. They also said I could have some of their personal items if I wanted!" Disarria gets all excited again and asks "what did you find?" Koriza shows her a golden ring with a purple gem, a few pieces of gold jewelry and 3 platinum coins. Disarria looks underwhelmed. Disarria shows Koriza's purple dildo she found and gives a cheeky smile "never knew you like them so tiny" Disarria teases. Disarria shows Koriza's purple dildo she found and gives a cheeky smile "never knew you like them so tiny" Disarria teases. Koriza looks confused for a second, then turns red. She whispers "oh gods, no...I can't even..." and runs out of the room. Endaklion facepalms and shakes his head in exasperation. You ask Disarria "what was that for?" "What? I'm just teasing her. I do it to you too! I'll go find her." You stop Disarria and follow Koriza instead . You follow the red dot on your map that represents Koriza. It leads you to the garden. You find her there staring off into space looking sad. You put a hand on her shoulder and she jumps a bit. Then she faces you and looks at the ground. She looks ashamed. She whispers "I'm sorry I ran off." You tell her "It's fine, but what's wrong? You can tell me anything." You stop Disarria and go look for Koriza yourself. You find her there staring off into space looking sad. You put a hand on her shoulder and she jumps a bit. Then she faces you and looks at the ground. She looks ashamed. She whispers "I'm sorry I ran off." You tell her "It's fine, but what's wrong? You can tell me anything." You stop Disarria and go look for Koriza yourself.

You find her and tease Koriza a bit too "Disarria had hundreds of these dildos and was proud of it too. Nothing wrong with just one" Koriza sighs and asks you why Disarria has the manners of a petulant child. You laugh "Well she was raised by one!" She smiles a bit and asks you if Disarria really had hundreds of dildos. You confirm it and elaborate that Ria's high sex drive got her into them. "Huh" she says, then looks at you and asks "Did Disarria touch my purple dragon legend book?" You shrug in response "I dunno, but she is one of the most mature ones here. I think Zal and Koriza have similar mentalities" Koriza comes back to the room and your group picks up again. You are all debating about whether or not you should invade the surface. Disarria exclaims "there's a much better place we can go! Suralia! It's an entire underground city! You nod and tease Koriza by stating Disarria is probably going to take the very rare book for herself. "Yeah Disarria really likes that childhood book of yours" Koriza gets a little mad and asks you why you would tease her like that. You respond with "I was joking, I know Disarria is an honorable thief." Koriza huffs a bit and states "She's not a thief, she's an explorer" You shrug and say "Isn't that what all explorers do? Explore? They steal the land before others?" She walks back to her room again, annoyed. You follow her. Once there Koriza spots Disarria fumbling with the lock of Koriza's old dairy. Endaklion tells Disarria to not open the dairy but he is ignored. She opens it. You look at the book and read a few sentences from it. It seems to be about her past love life rather than about the surface. You feel weird reading someone else's dairy but it's interesting. Koriza comes up behind you and reads over your shoulder. Disarria decides to tease Koriza some more and says "ohohoho did that boy deflower you?" Koriza gets mad and yells at her "NO, he did not!" Disarria starts laughing as you and Endaklion roll your eyes. Disarria looks at another page, it has a portrait of young Koriza and Koriza's long dead sister that killed herself after the mental anguish from sexual torture. Disarria's demeanor shifts instantly and asks "is... Is that other dragon your sis?" Koriza gets mad and starts yelling at Disarria "DON'T FUCKING LOOK AT THAT!" Disarria gets scared and tries to calm her down, apologizing. Koriza seems to be crying and you step in, telling the two of them to stop fighting. Endaklion stays silent as usual until Koriza calms down. You insist Koriza to take you upstairs to her old bedroom. You two go there and notice how intact this pagoda-like part of the palace is. You compliment Koriza on how gorgeous Korizan culture is in its proper state. She smiles and says "I like this palace, it was built far before the time of our..." She pauses. Every dragon has a hesitation when speaking about their past, especially since it involves genocide. "...fall. I like to remember what once was." "Is that why you keep the book here?" "I wish I could dispose of it but I'm too scared too." You gently get on the bed and Koriza follows suit. You ask her: "am I anything like the purple dragon of that book of yours?" She answers you "I'm not sure. You seem like a mix of many things. I see Endaklion in you, I see myself in you, I see my sister in you. But you are different." You smile and say "good" You ask Koriza that since she always held the purple dragon in such high regard, if she ever had romantic fantasies involving one. She says she is not embarrassed to admit that she did. You laugh and hold her tighter. You don't ask if she wants to try anything with you, you are loyal to Zalisi. Disarria pokes her head up from the stairs. She asks if she can have you for a night too. It is nothing sexual, Disarria just wants your attention. Koriza sighs and shoves a guest bed next to hers, creating a large nesting like area. She says "how about us 3 staying together and sleeping here?" You agree as long as you're not squashed. You all cuddle up to each other and pass out. Koriza asks you "did you have a good night?" You shake your head "nightmares. I did not want to see those mass graves when coming to this city" Koriza reassures you that this is a normal reaction to what you saw. You both smile and fall asleep once again. In the morning, a servant from the city is waiting for you in your living space. He says that the king is to see you right now. Disarria is all ready. She got up early.

You ask Koriza what her dad, the Korizan king, would want. Koriza tells you it is probably about politics, and that her father the king's name is Korinzao. Disarria makes a joke "hey Endaklion, greet the king as papa Korinzao." All of you cringe in reaction to Disarria's joke. You arrive at the king's palace. Koriza asks if you are ready, and you say yes. She knocks on the door. The door opens by itself, and the servant says "just go in." So you enter the throne room, where Korinzao is sitting on his throne. You walk forward "so I hear you are the purple dragon" he initially says in a neutral tone. You stutter and say "y-yes?" Korinzao slowly turns around and sternly asks " you are the mate of my precious daughter, Koriza?" You are not. Koriza blushes "dad... You embarrass me" Endaklion and Disarria watch with interest. Koriza's father says "I will not see you hurt her. That is why I must ask you this question. Do you love her?" You think for a moment. Will you lie to the king or tell him the truth? You tell him that you are taken, by Zalisi, and ask where he hid her as she fled to this city to escape the wrath of Malediction. Korinzao stares into your eyes "so you do love her?" Your heart pounds. You tell him you love Zalisi. his daughter, Koriza, is just a friend to you. You can hear the unmistakable voice of Zalisi as she walks inside "it really is you, Entropion!" Zalisi the blue dragon says. Zalisi runs up to you and hugs you before licking your face all over in pure bliss. Both Koriza and Disarria are overcome with envy. Korinzao says "I'm glad you decided to come here." Even though everyone is happy your group is complete again with Zalisi here, Korinzao sighs as he must bring up a more serious subject. The state of this nation, Korizan. He speaks "the black dragon occupation of East Korizan is still in effect. They want to destroy our culture, our heritage. They see us as an inferior race" Koriza is getting emotional at this site news about her homeland. Endaklion is just staring blankly into the distance. Zalisi looks at you, scared for good reason. If you had to guess, she's wondering if her parents are still alive. Korinzao continues "we have the resources and population to mount a military campaign to free our enslaved brethren. We just need the right generals and the right strategy. Koriza smirks "let's kill all these black dragon cretins. All of them!" Endaklion states at Koriza. He is a good black dragon. Everyone is worried about Koriza's vengeful tone, especially Korinzao! "Koriza! This is no way to speak to our honored guests, they have come here as friends!" Koriza's father says in a scolding tone. "Curse these black dragons! I will not rest until every last one of their kind is dead by my own claws!" she shouts in anger. Your own dragon spirit senses your growing rage. You gesture to Disarria, Endaklion and Zalisi to follow you. Let father and daughter handle this. You 4 return to your quarters. You and Zalisi get in a room and lock the door. You tell Zalisi you missed her so much! You wrap your arms around her, and she smiles. "I missed you too." Zalisi says, smiling. You then cuddle Zalisi tightly "What are you doing?" Zalisi asks. "I want to be...closer to you. I want to be one." You respond. Zalisi is shy at first but eventually gets in the mood as well. You check her neck for the old bite marks you gave her to lay claim on her. They're still there.... You smirk "I guess you're mine" You then say "By the gods, if some other male had bitten you, I would've ripped out his throat!" And she laughs. What a glorious sound. You hope she never stops. Zalisi then gives you a look that could kill. Your blood boils and your heart flutters at the same time. You apologize to Zalisi for doubting her loyalty. She embraces you "Never again. I will be by your side, in sickness and in health, for richer or for poorer, till death do us part." Zalisi says. You look into her eyes and say "I love you". "I love you too." She responds. You then kiss her on the lips. You feel truly happy. Your lives are complete with each other. Then, the door is kicked down. Disarria decides to be her crude self again and hops on the bed you and Zalisi are on. Disarria asks the obvious "you two were about to have sex uh?" Zalisi is utterly embarrassed and Disarria seems to find that funny.

"OK first of all, yes Disarria we were about to have sex, get over it. Second of all, what the fuck are you doing here?" Disarria, without shame tells you that she is jealous. Disarria adds how she will prevent you two fucking. "You want to have sex with me, don't you?" Disarria asks. Zalisi is silent. "I don't think so." You say. "Oh well you're a stupid asshole who does what he's told and only fucks the boring bitch he was assigned to." Disarria says. "Bitch please. You wish you had a dick." You respond. Disarria grows angrier and angrier by your comments. You ask Disarria why she can't accept it that you love Zalisi. "You're a fucking idiot. You're just a big stupid meat shield with a big dick." Disarria says. Now you grow angry. "Say that one more time." You say in an angry tone. "You heard me asshole." Disarria responds. "I think you have some issues with men." You say, getting off the bed. "Oh fuck you want to fight?" You shake your head, trying to diffuse the situation "if you want me to have a room separate from Zalisi, I will. I do think you are a childish dragon, Ria." "Maybe I am. But you're no fun, so fuck you and your... oh fuck." Disarria notices you are no longer paying attention to her and now looking at the entrance. Koriza is standing there with an angry look on her face. "I heard everything. Disarria get out of here, and go back to your room. NOW." Koriza says. You and Disarria say nothing. "NOW." Koriza repeats herself, this time with anger. Disarria hops off the bed and runs out of the room. You look at Zalisi who is still silent. You look at Koriza and she stares at you like she wants to kill you. "What is going on between you and Disarria?" she asks. You want to say "what are you talking about?" You know Kor responds best to honesty "she wanted to cock block me when I and Zalisi were getting intimate" Koriza is aware of how jealous Disarria can get. You also mention that Zalisi did not speak up. Koriza asks "And you believed her?" You nod. "I'm sorry Kor, but I'm not a mind reader." "You're not a man either." She says as she leaves the room. Zalisi finally speaks up "I'm sorry" she says. "I didn't want to upset you, but we haven't had time alone in awhile." You give Zalisi a perverted grin "how about attempt 2? I still want to rut you"' you tell Zalisi. She doesn't seem to angry with you, so you decide to try again. "Sure." She says with a smile. As you get closer to Zalisi, some one enters the room again. It is Koriza, she looks angry. The difference is this time Endaklion follows her. "Enty, can I talk to you for a second." Endaklion looks at the both of you and realizes something is wrong. You groan and snap at Koriza "come on! I just want to fuck this blue dragoness of mine," you refer to Zalisi. She blushes and looks away, but she loves your dominant attitude. Koriza grabs your hand and pulls you off the bed. "Can you leave us alone for a second?" she asks Zalisi. Zalisi understands and complies with Koriza's demands. "What the fuck do you think you're doing trying to fuck Zalisi right now?" she asks you angrily. "What does it matter? You said just a minute ago that you don't care that I'm fucking Zalisi. If you do care, just say so." "I don't care Enty. But it's obvious that your relationship with Zalisi is affecting your judgment. You need to focus right now and fucking Zalisi is not going to help you. You have had it! You explode at Koriza and yell at her. "I did not want to be dragged into Malediction's city and be almost wed to that stupid bitch Disarria, I did not ask to come to your pathetic mess of a homeland and play savior for a stupid, rotting civilization and I certainly did not ask for you, Koriza, to not let me be with the love of my life! I just wanted an easy, quiet life and Korizan can rot for all I care! Everyone of your friends heard your screaming tantrum. All of them feel insulted and especially Koriza is hurt, heartbroken even. She grabs her purple dragon legend book and drops it on the floor before leaving. This is an obvious symbolic gesture that you just shattered her childhood dreams about you and your heroism. "Fuck," you whisper to yourself.

You sit down on the bed and begin to think about the situation. Koriza does have a point, your judgment is a little off right now. You might not be thinking perfectly straight. Your relationship with Zalisi is obviously affecting your brain somehow. But then again, Zalisi has been an important part of your life for years now and you have always been a good judge of character before. Zalisi sighs deeply. She says: "you know how much you've hurt Koriza?" "Yeah, and I didn't mean to. I just was tired from traveling and wanted to rest for a bit. And I don't see how it's any of her fucking business if I want to have sex with you or anyone else for that matter." "You should go apologize to her." "No, I'm not going to do that. The way she treated me was insulting and demeaning. I won't stand for such abuse. Deep down you agree with Zalisi though... Zalisi tells you there is something else. She tells you that she never was pregnant with eggs you fertilized, that was a ruse so she had a reason to escape. You understand she was terrified of Malediction's threats but you feel she abandoned you and the group back there at a time you needed her emotional support the most. This is unforgivable for you. You feel you cannot trust Zalisi. Your relationship may be based on sex but you need more than that. You're a little surprised you were able to feel strong emotions for another after what happened with Malediction though. Zalisi approaches you and embraces you, rubbing her cheek against your chest, her hands pulling your back tightly against her chest. You feel her warm body against yours. She senses your anger, hurt and sadness. "You are all I have now," she whispers in your ear. You push her off and snarl "incorrect! We are over!" You get out of the room and give her a glare as if to say "Don't follow me!" You now have broken Zalisi's heart too, you slam the door shut but you could hear her faint crying. Endaklion shakes his head as he sees you in the living room, putting his book aside. He says "not cool man, you've hurt two of your companions today." "She betrayed me! I can't forgive that." "She was scared." "So was I when Malediction threatened to kill me!" "I think you're overreacting. Zalisi is a strong woman, she can make her own choices." You clench your fists and bite your tongue. You remember the time you and Endaklion didn't see eye to eye. You respected his wisdom and choices even if they differed from yours. Disarria joins you two and pouts upon seeing you. Endaklion tells her to give you a break as you just broke up. Disarria, while disagreeing with you and Zalisi being together, still feels bad for you. You immediately see her as suspicious. She asks why you broke up and you explain the Malediction incident. She says "who cares? That guy was a dick anyway". You say "he was cruel at times but that's not the point! Zalisi abandoned her duties as a companion and lied to me about it!" Disarria laughs and says "you're hopelessly in love! That could be a good thing, I think Zalisi really cares for you." You correct Disarria by stating you WERE hopelessly in love. Endaklion shushes her. "Bro, Ria? Listen up, we three are going on vacation for a few weeks and let the situation cool down here. Endaklion looks at you "before we go, brother, you will apologize to Koriza." You agree with this idea and the terms, so does Disarria. You ask nobody in particular where Koriza ran off to, you want to take back what you said. You go upstairs and spot Koriza on her childhood bed. She faces away from you but her keen hearing has detected you. She growls lowly "haven't you pissed on my values enough?' You say "look I just want to apologize." Koriza's voice cracks a bit "you're a huge hypocrite." You say "Koriza, I was mad at you. Not your wonderful yet troubled homeland. I gave you a cheap low blow in that argument and my behavior was unbecoming of any dragon, let alone a purple dragon meant to unite." You do not expect these words to heal the emotional pain, but to at least make it so that Koriza can forgive you. She turns around and wipes her eyes. She gives a small smile and nods. You tell her "I will wait for your answer at the table." You leave her alone to think about it. You go downstairs and tell Endaklion it is done, you apologized. He nods and soon Koriza comes down. She tells you that "this is for what you said" and gives you a firm claw slash on the shoulder. It hurts like hell but you suck it up.

Koriza continues "this is for not letting my hope in you down and apologizing" Koriza says as she gives you a very tight hug from behind. You feel she is more than fair, and that the claw mark is a good metaphor for her emotional pain. Both will need time to heal. You ask the group who you can sleep with, as you refuse to share a room with Zalisi. Disarria volunteers to be your roommate. You smile at this- it is a relief since you did not want to make the awkward decision over who else to choose. You and Disarria head to her room. You immediately notice the mess. You joke "You miss having servants, don't you?" to which she responds "Fuck you, I'm a princess." with a grin. You both share a laugh as you make an attempt to clean her room. After some time, you are cuddled up next to Disarria when you look out the window and see a dragon flying by. You rub your eyes thinking you're seeing things but its there alright. It looks like a very small green dragon, although its incredibly far away so identity confirmation would be difficult at best. You ask Disarria on what she thinks of you dumping Zalisi for lying. She ask "Was she even sorry though?" You think about it, and finally come to the conclusion that she was not. From what you can tell Disarria agrees. You ask Disarria what it was like growing up in Malediction's dark and evil city, waiting for a purple dragon like herself. She replies "Honestly, I hated it. I had a few nice guards and my family was friendly most of the time but besides that there were war orphans who would try to steal from me and I couldn't ever go outside without protection." "So you never played when you were a kid?" "Never even went to school. I learned what I know from my mom and books, which brings me to why I'm glad you came here." "Why's that? I hadn't realized we had similar tastes in books." you say. "Hah, no, that's not it. It's because I want to learn how to be a ruler. There are many things I realize I don't know as a leader and I need your help. So can I count on your help being here?" This revelation shocks you, but you don't reveal that "Yeah. Of course!" "Great. Thanks. You look at Disarria and joke "time for you and Koriza to compete for my heart once it healed!" Disarria gives you a sly look and moves her head towards yours. You prepare to kiss but she goes past your lips and into your mouth! You jump back and exclaim "Why the hell did you do that?" "Because I felt like it. I wanted to see if you had a reaction. Your face got red and I thought it was cute. I'll be honest, I was a little jealous of Zalisi. I've been thinking about this for a long time and recently got the courage to go for it after hearing about your time with her." "That was a one-time thing!" "I hope that doesn't mean you don't like me." "No! It's not that, it's just um...well..." Disarria gives you a cheeky smile "It's OK. You tell Disarria you cant deal with this, not now. You leave the room. You go to Endaklion's room and tell him "yeah Ria just tried putting her tongue in my mouth" He nods "Interesting...and?" "What do you mean and?" "I mean, what did you do after she put her tongue in your mouth?" "I pushed her off of me..." "Why?" You feel like he's mocking you so you get annoyed and snap "Why do you care? You think its funny or something? He smirks " you went into the room of the crazy pervert named Disarria, what did you expect?" You frown "I thought it was the room of a fellow dragon." He frowns back, annoyed "Whats wrong with you lately? I have never known you to run away from a challenge." "I'm not running away. Disarria is just..." "Just what?" You don't know how to respond. You ask Endaklion if you can sleep here, his room. You add how these girls, Koriza, Zalisi and Disarria are madwomen. Endaklion understands and lets you stay. You cant fall asleep. When Endaklion is sleeping you make a few rounds through the palace and when coming back your eyes meet a vial named "Dream-spy elixir" on the shelf. with this you could spectate the dreams of others! You take the vial and drink its contents. You fall asleep. Soon you find yourself dreaming, you dream about the palace and see Endaklion and yourself sleeping as your projected form hovers over Endaklion.

You enter his dream and spectate. Endaklion dreams he is a great dragon. You laugh and applaud at how boring his dream is. Suddenly you find yourself being chased by giant puppies, you run all over the palace like a child. Your projections of Endaklion and yourself chase each other in circles until you find yourself back where you started, standing in front of the vial that started this dream adventure You want to snoop some more! Next is Zalisi. You enter Zalisi's dream. You wonder how she is holding up. You see her sitting in a bathtub. Her body is heavily bruised and cut up, blood stains the tub and water. Zalisi's eyes are black and white with red pupils. She smiles at you " Hello Enty" You think to yourself "Am I actually in danger? Can she see me?" You feel like your feet are stuck to the ground. You want to leave but your legs wont respond. You cannot be harmed and she cannot know it is the real you, and not part of her dream. You know this and try to stay calm "Hey Zal. So, uh... why are you all hurt and bleeding? Is it about our breakup?" Zalisi looks down and wipes some blood from her mouth with her hand. "Yes, and No." "What do you mean?" "I mean I am not just sad about us being over. I am sad about us being over, but also, I am glad for it." You give her a puzzled look. Zalisi is probably one of the sweetest girls you had ever met. She would never hurt anyone unless she had a really good reason, or was really angry. You are convinced she is just sad about the breakup and not thinking clearly. "Zalisi, I don't think you should be hurting yourself over us. You know I will always love you no matter what. You add that the love is no longer romantic, but it is there. You hope that she gets the hint. Zalisi looks up at you "You shouldn't say things if you don't mean them Ent." "But I do!" You try to convince her, but your words fall upon deaf ears. Zalisi stands up and walks out of the tub towards you, looking deep into your eyes. You try to look away but you cannot. She grabs your wrist and pulls you towards her. Your face remains stoic. But a tear forms in your eye " you hurt me, Zalisi. You lied about a pregnancy to flee a situation in which I needed you the most" You say while looking down. Zalisi grips your chin and makes you look at her. "You are an awful person, you know that right? I really regret meeting you" "I regret as well." Zalisi laughs and gives a smirk "Well, that's something we have in common" she says while breaking eye contact and walking to the bathtub. She sits on the edge of the tub and hugs her legs while sobbing. You snarl at her "be that way. Fine, I don't want to be with a selfish coward" you say while turning your back to walk away. "Coward? Me? You are calling me a coward?" She says getting up and grabbing a dagger. "Don't turn your back on me." You stop in your tracks "Do what you gotta do then, if that's how you see this situation." Zalisi throws the dagger at you. You exit Zalisi's dream. That girl sure has metaphorical demons! You decide to snoop on Koriza next. You are curious about her dream especially. You wonder if she is as tough in real life as her reputation suggests. An hour later, you are looking at a gorgeous red dragon with scales that reflect light like a ruby. She has long elegant wings that she occasionally spreads out and extends while yawning (and yes, it is all very attractive). She looks peaceful, but then it seems someone is about to wake her up and ruin that peace! You stand in awe. This must be Koriza's sanctuary. You approach the red dragon and introduce yourself "are you... Koriza's sister?" The red dragon replies "Yes, and you are?" "I am Entropion." "Hmm. Never heard that name before. Who are you and where did you come from?" You laugh "I drank a potion to infiltrate dreams. It is no wonder you are in Koriza's dream" "Wait... so am I dreaming too?" "Oh heavens no. this is all real." The red dragon laughs "what a silly question to ask! Of course this is real, unless you are just making it all up inside your own head" You frown "I do not have the desire to make anything up. Everything I know is factual and true" You say feeling offended. The red dragon laughs again "I was joking! Geez, you're so serious!" The red dragon tells you she is as real as you are. She is the spirit of Korisana, the dead sister of Koriza.

She and Koriza often meet in the dream world. "We have many long conversations. We are very close you see. I have been worried about her of late." "Why is that?" You ask. "Koriza has been putting on a strong face for everyone, but I know inside she is struggling with her sister's death. She needs to cry, she needs to mourn, but she refuses to let it all out for some reason." You tell Korisana that trauma is permanent. The emotional baggage stays with a person even after the trauma itself is gone. Koriza refuses to cry. She thinks that if she cries, it means Malediction won. "I know" says Korisana. You think about how to respond. Will she be receptive to your advice? You Korisana that she does mourn from time to time, but only when alone with you. Maybe she should go out and morn in front of others too. It might be cathartic. Koriza's sister looks at you with a deadpan expression "what would you know about trauma?" You hesitate to respond, even though you know the answer. You have been through more than your fair share of trauma. You give your answer carefully. "More than I'd like, but less than some." You reply. The red dragon smiles "good answer" You ask the red dragon spirit Korisana if Koriza dreams about you sometimes. She smiles knowingly "all the time" You ask if she dreams about you too. The dragon laughs, her voice echoing in your mind "I'm dead remember? I can't dream" You day good bye and thank her for answering all your questions. She just smiles and says it was no problem. You decide to leave Koriza's dream. "I will make you and Koriza proud!" You say before you leave. Korisana whispers after you left "You already have, dear Enty" Finally, Disarria. You wonder what a weirdo like her has going on. You enter Disarria's dream. The dream takes place in an abandoned town. The buildings are run down and covered with graffiti. You see Disarria leaning against the wall of a building smoking a cigarette. "Hey man, good to see you." She says with a nod. "What's up?" Disarria is dressed in urban clothing, she has a swagger that suggests she is from the streets. You immediately think about how out of place she would look in your home. You burst out laughing "Ria really loves to rebel again her princess status" you say Ria scowls "Ria huh? That's original. You couldn't think of anything more creative than that?" You dismiss the question with a wave of your hand "you were called Ria by all in the palace" you reply, before continuing "though I will admit, street clothing really doesn't suit you" "Oh? And what suit am I wearing then?" she asks a sneer crossing her face. You can't stop laughing "just not this!" you say as you point at her. Ria's face turns a deep shade of red and she looks like she is going to explode "what the hell is wrong with my outfit?" "It just doesn't work for you, that's all." you reply with a shrug. You continue "I don't know any other girl who can wear a snap back, over sized hoodie, baggy jeans and knock off Neek shoes and look good in it." Disarria smirks at you "cute, but Enty, you will need to try harder than a dream potion to infiltrate my mind. I know lucid dreaming." You did not expect this. You quickly try to think up of something. You say "so.. you admit this IS a dream!" Disarria's face turns back to a smirk "well, if you put it that way. Yes." she replies. "what way is that?" you ask confused. "The only way that matters to me" Disarria says with a cheeky grin. You decide not to pursue this train of thought any longer. Disarria licks her lips "this is my dream Enty. I can fully exercise my perverted fantasies on you" she says with a wink. You shiver "wow, that sounded sexual...." you say in response. Disarria bursts out laughing "damn, you are totally going to get it now!" Disarria says. Luckily you are quick enough to leave her dream. You wake up in your bed back in the palace. You are relieved that the dream ended before it became too weird. You dismiss any thoughts about Disarria from your head and carry on with your day.

In the communal room, Endaklion, Disarria, Koriza and Zalisi wait for you. They all stare at you and Endaklion begins "I found the bottle, Entropion, we know you were in our dreams" Disarria chuckles at you "you should have disposed of it, dork" Endaklion and Ria don't mind too much it seems, you wonder if Koriza and Zalisi are offended by you watching their dreams. They seem indifferent. You sure are more wary of Zalisi after seeing her dream. You tell Koriza "I loved meeting her" you are referring to her sister's spirit. "I see that and it's sweet....but what did you truly feel ?" Koriza says. You don't know how to respond. Fortunately, Endaklion asks "so...who wants to hear my dream first?" Everyone groans "why does it matter, you always forget your dreams within minutes of waking up" Disarria complains. "Yeah, but it's fun to hear anyway" Endaklion replies. You tell Endaklion to shush as his dreams are nonsensical. you also want to veer the conversation away from this. "How late are Ria, me and Dak leaving for our vacation?" you ask, Endaklion tells you a zippy Express blimp will pick you up over 3 hours. Once it's time, you, Disarria and Endaklion hop on. It is a small vehicle but you manage. Even with the fastest vehicle in kingdom, this trek will take 10 hours! While flying, you ask about the island. Disarria eagerly answers "the island is called Eísodos and we are going to the Capitol of Nymreum! Eísodos is a tiny little white dragon outpost. White dragons got FUR guys, they look ridiculous!" You enjoy nerding out with Disarria and indulge her "I heard white dragons are peace loving spiritualists?" You ask. "Yeah, all of them are but they still have a strong sense of territory and law!" Disarria explains. You wonder how such a tiny island is still functional "what about the black dragon despotate? How come the white dragons are still free?" "Because the black dragon despotate consumes itself in civil war and bickering from what I heard!" Disarria says. Disarria also explains there are other island communities but they are far away and isolated. Eísodos is under Korizan protection. Invading such a tiny island is not logistically interesting. However, the island has a secret that the public are oblivious to... You sit back and relax as you wait for your journey to end.
