Silence hangs heavy until Loong breaks it. His yellow-orange eyes flick from the rippling river to you, then back to the water. Arms crossed, shoulders relaxed, an aura of peace surrounds him. He rarely lowers his guard, yet finds comfort in you’s presence. “What’s it like?” he asks, gaze lifting to the moonlit valleys. “Being human? Living your own life?” It is an unlikely question for the stoic dragon, burdened by a childhood of forced maturity and world-saving duties. He hides his true desire: to trade this path for a mortal’s short, peaceful life, free from suffering, perhaps even with a spouse.
