Tieral chuckled. "All dream end sooner or later. Keep it in mind and it will always be there," he said, picking Alekai up and placing a blanket over Goldenscale, "We'll give her a little while longer. She deserved as much rest as she can get."

C;air let out a dep rolling purr as she woke to the smell of food. "What's on the menue for breakfast," she asked, yawning as she readjusted her position so she could sit up, "Whatever it is, it smells good."

I wake up.

Waking up shortly after, Ece let out a long yawn before opening her eyes. Seeing Storm, she started purring.

I smile and stroke her head "what do you wanna do today?".

"I just want to relax for once. It's been two years, and I'd lke to take it easy for once," Ece said, reaching to her back for her pouch, but started to panic when it wasn't there. Quickly sitting up, she began to look around frantically for her pouch, "Oh no, please no. I can't loose it. I can't loose the pear;," she said to herself, flying up to the roof to look around.

I pretended to look around thourghly and then found it and gave it to her "realaxing sounds fun but what does this pearl mean to you?"

Flying down and grabbing the pouch, Ece settled on the floor as she held it close to her chest. "Mama gave it to the night be th red dragon came. She told me to never loose it," she said, "It's all I have left from home."

"Oh, better keep it close then" I say and lie down and watch the embers of the fire glow.

"I keep it with me, no matter where I go. So many have tried to take it from me, but none have been able to," she said, tucking the pouch under a wing and walking over to Storm to lay down, "i don't know why they want it, but they can't have it. They always say I don't deserve such a beautiful pearl, but I know they are all wrong."

"You defenatly deserve the pearl!"

"You're the only person I've ran into that thinks that way. Everyone else seems to think they deserve it more than me.I had to run from the community I had lived in since before the red came becase everyone was trying to take my pearl. Even those who I though were friends tried to take it," she said, looking into the coals, "I want to know why they changed, why they turned their backs on me."

"Pancakes." Ricken replied with a smile.

Goldenscale continued to sleep.

"I haven't had a sweet breakfast in a long time. Then again, I haven't had anything sweet in a long time," Clair laughed, "A nice warm meal will be such a great start to the day." Sliding out of bed, she walked over to Ricken to give him a kiss.

"Yes, it would." he said, wrapping his wings around her.

"I'm guessing you liked your reward last night,"she said, curling her tail around Ricken's, "What do you suggest we do after breakfast?"
