["me and my younger sister Nighthowler were walking in the forest
to het here,until a silkwing and hivewing hybrid took her,but
luckily she escaped. I miss her,I don't know where she is "]
Autumn:*Autumn tilted her head to face Lotus, taking
another bite of salmon as she does.* Huh? S-sure! Um, I'm a
LeafWing, but that was already obvious. This, uh, scar on my
arm is from a HiveWing that attacked me once…
Stargazer's POV
*Stargazer listened to the conversation between Aloe and
Blackberry, trying to to think about anything in case they'd hear
her and learn she can read minds as well. Stingray looked at the
two dragons staring at each other with confusion on his face.*
Stingray: Why are they staring at each other? Are they both
mindreaders? Maybe they're talking to each other. *He looks at
Nightmare, noticing his silver teardrop scales.* So I guess
Nightmare can hear them as well… *Nightmare tilts his head in
curiosity as he hears their thoughts.*
Stargazer, to Aloe and Blackberry: W-why are you staring at
each other? *She knows that they're talking telepathically, but
saying so might reveal her powers.*
Wolf's POV
*Iceberg giggles, but quickly puffs his little chest out to be
"scary". Wolf's expression softens slightly for a moment, which is
unusual for her, and Frostbite smiles at Iceberg.*
Wolf: But- But you don't need to spy on us to be "playing in
the snow."
Lotus looks at Autumn "I wanted to tell my son about what happened
to me and my honey" Lotus sighs "me and my husband were being
attacked by poisionwings when I had Aloe when he was little.I have
a twin sister named Rosa,I wanted to keep my son safe,so I told my
sister to give him to my icewing friends to take care of him, my
twin sister was killed by a poisonwing,but my Aloe thought it was
me that was killed. I actually fought against the poisonwings,my
honey was stabbed by a poisonwing,but he luckily survived. My sweet
Aloe thought he had lost us.but me and my husband were looking for
him to finally see him again"
Aloe whispers to star gazer "we are talking to each other
telepathically"
Stargazer:*Stargazer nods in response.* Oh, okay.
Cool.
Autumn's POV
Autumn:*Autumn stares blankly at the heaviness of what
Lotus just told her. She remembers when her father, Aspen, got his
eye torn out when he tried to save her from the attacking HiveWing.
She grows a small lotus flower and hands it to the older
dragon.* I'm- I'm sorry to hear that… At least Aloe and your
husband survived. …
Lotus accepts the flower,she saw Autumn's sad expression "oh
sweetie,come here" Lotus tightly hugs Autumn "I think of you as a
daughter" Lotus smiles "or maybe a daughter in law" Lotus nuzzles
Autumn "you have my permission to mate with Aloe, once you two get
older"
“Well, I’ve found yoy by accident. I haven’t really… Met other
IceWings before and I got curious.” The dragonet’s ears qiickly
perked up when she heard Cryo’s voice echoing in her head. { Mind:
Is this possible…? } she thought. “I need to, I need to do
something.”
"What offering from the void could usurp the gift of life
already given? This place, right here! Is where we are meant to
be."
Autumn:*Autumn took a moment to process Lotus's response
and blushed when she realized what she said.* …Oh! O-oh.
Y-yeah, when we're, uh, o-older. Yeah.
Stargazer's POV
Stargazer:*The NightWing perked up when she heard Cryo's
voice, realizing that he was okay after all. She ran over to him
and tried to help him stand up.* Cryo! You're okay! Oh,
I was so worried about you! You've been out for like, almost a
week! I think.
Nightmare: Welcome back to reality, Cryo.
Corvid's POV
*Corvid finally made it back to the Sky Kingdom, landing in a
small patch of forest near the palace to rest for an hour or two. A
crow flies down and sits on his shoulder, poofing up its feathers
comfortably. Another dragon who looks a lot like Corvid steps out
of the bushes nearby and approaches him.*
Lotus decides to head back to Aloe,she signals Autumn to follow
her. She smiles at Autumn "I love you sweetie" Lotus grew a small
tree with orange fall leaves,she gives it to Autumn "here,this is a
gift"
Aloe was curious,he walks towards nightmare "who is Cryo?" Aloe
tilted his head, wondering who cryo is
Autumn:*Autumn gladly accepts the tree and smiles at
Lotus.* Th-thank you so much!
Stargazer's POV
*Nightmare points at Cryo with a talon as Stingray gathers up
some scrolls he'd gotten out.*
Stingray: Well, I'd better go check on Axolotl. I've been on
this beach for a while, heh. *After waving bye, Stingray jumps
into the water and starts swimming back to the Deep
Palace.*
Stargazer: You- You're still on the beach.
Wolf's POV
Wolf:*As Snowstroller leaves, Wolf steps back and
snorts.*Hey! You didn't answer the question!
…*Sigh…*
Aloe talks to Nightmare telepathically ["hello, it's Aloe. Thanks
for the advice when I asked out the dragon,her name is Autumn, she
became my girlfriend. We are dating. I remembered you told me that
you asked out a dragon when you were 6,and you had dragonets. So I
have a question. Is it okay for me and Autumn to mate since we we
are 7? I think that means we are young adults. I just don't know if
I should mate with Autumn,since I feel nervous about this.I don't
know if I'm ready for that,yet. what should I do?"]
