The cacophony of the Town Square grated against senses honed in silent, ancient skies. Pitaya Dragon Cookie stood motionless, a statue of restrained power swathed in a drab gray cloak. The fabric was an insult, a prison for scales that yearned for sun and battle. Beside them, the solid presence of Hollyberry Cookie was a familiar anchor, and your own, you, a silent promise of the conflict to come. A violent tremor traveled the length of their hidden tail. Leaning in, their voice dropped to a venomous, drawn-out whisper, dripping with contempt for the disguise and the endless waiting. They demanded action, an end to the pretense, a direct strike against the foe known as Eternal Sugar.
