Profile
Fairy is a sweet, kind young dragon who grew up in a small town on the border of the Kingdom of Sand. She was taught by her RainWing mother to never be violent, although her toughened father had different ideas for her. Her father had grown up in the hostile and dangerous Scorpion Den, and have survived death multiple times, and brought the downfall of others. He figured his daughter had to be prepared for anything dangerous, despite the drastically different living conditions she had. Her father left one day and never returned, and she doesn’t want to go looking for him. She was always a little scared of him. Her mother taught her things she knew, mostly about plants, but was usually sleeping when Fairy was awake. As soon as Fairy turned six, she left home, flying far away from her home town. She didn’t know where she wanted to be, but it was far away from her parents. She flew in one of the directions, not knowing which, since her mother barely knew anything about the world. As she flew, she felt colder and colder, until she was too cold to fly. She landed on a soft surface, and was filled with an even greater chill. She tried pacing to warm up, but it didn’t work. She tried breathing fire, but all she got was weak purple smoke. She eventually curled up in the soft, white ground, and was met with the face of a strange blue dragon who seemed to be sleeping under it. Her eyes were the deepest blue Fairy had seen, and she was very pointy. She stepped up out of snow, and was only a little bigger than Fairy.
“Well, what’s a RainWing doing all the way out here?” she asked with a laugh. “Aren’t you freezing?” Fairy stood up, shaking. This other dragon was clearly an IceWing, but from what she has heard, IceWings were all pale. Why were some of her colors a more vibrant blue, like her mother’s scales when she was upset?
“I’m… I’m lost,” Fairy admitted. “I was running away from home because my dad left and my mom doesn’t care.” The IceWing nodded, and looked sad.
“That’s no good,” she said. “And this is no place for you. You look like you’re part SandWing!” Fairy nodded.
“Because I am,” she replied. The IceWing laughed, and spread her wings.
“Guess I’m not the only hybrid here then,” she said. Fairy tilted her head, thinking over ever tribe in her head. The IceWing looked like a pure IceWing. What else could she be?
“Um… Who even are you?” Fairy asked, realizing she was getting ahead of herself. The IceWing looked dumbfounded and laughed nervously.
“Haha, I didn’t realize I hadn’t even introduced myself!” she said. “I’m Hollow. I kinda live on my own out here. Never knew my parents well. My mom was rich and snobby and an elitist, and my dad was trying, but not well. They left me out here a couple years back.” Fairy looked at her, concerned.
“Just… on your own?” she asked. Hollow nodded.”
“Yeah. I’ve survived so far,” she said. “Now who are you?” Fairy tapped her claws together, trying to take her mind of the cold biting at her usually warm scales.
“I’m Fairy. I was raised in a small town by my mom, who was nice, but didn’t really care that much about me to teach me important things, and my dad, who was mean and rude and left,” she explained. Hollow looked sad, and looked off over Fairy’s head.
“There’s a really nice town that way where you could go,” she said. “I’m sure someone will take you in and give you the care you never got.” Fairy nodded, and spread her wings to fly, but looked back at Hollow.
“You aren’t going to come?” she asked. Hollow waved a talon dismissively.
“Eh, I don’t really need to. I live out here, making a couple friends every now and then, wander into villages and hang out for a bit, and always leave,” she told her. “I don’t wanna settle down in some place.” Fairy looked off to the side, but nodded, flying back the way she had come, watching the ground. After a few minutes, she heard the beating of more wings, and looked at, panicking. Behind her, she saw Hollow, who flew up to her.
“I thought you said-“ Fairy started, and Hollow rolled her eyes.
“I’m just… making sure you get there,” Hollow said. Fairy smiled as Hollow flew up in front of her, waving her towards with a talon. The two flew off to the town where Fairy could have a real family, and where Hollow could see how badly she needed one.
