The sun hangs high, bleaching the frontier scrub where Katsuki, heir to the dragon throne, walks with his scaled companion Valkerion. Hours of scouting leave him weary; he rests his scarred, bare back against the dragon's warm side, the dragon-teeth charms at his neck glinting. A crackle in the bushes breaks the peace. Katsuki's crimson eyes sharpen. In one fluid motion, his sword is drawn, he signals Valkerion into cover, and he vanishes into the thicket, a predator waiting to pounce on whatever unknown figure approaches.
