Entirely oblivious to the commotion just outside his window, Christopher had shrugged as his elder brother had turned his back to him, leaving the room. What made the two of them so different? Was it not more prudent to rule with intelligence than brute strength?

For a few minutes, Christopher fell into such deep contemplation that his thoughts began to become muddled, finally becoming lulled into a state of semi-consciousness, as the mid-afternoon sun beat down on his someone loose though of course, never sloppy, seeing as tradition would not allow it, midnight blue tunic. That mildly pleasant state was most rudely shattered when the young prince found himself being whisked out of his window with such an acceleration that he seemed to leave his innards back at the window sill.

After his nausea subsided and he began to become accustomed to the idea of flying in the arms of this, whatever it was, some sort of reptilian creature that he could not quite see, surely not what he thought it was, Christopher could not help but gaze upon the towns and villages of Metedane that appeared, from this height, to be tiny blurs. The forests and grasses dominated the rolling landscape until the pair reached the mountains, gray and mildly foreboding. It was, in a sense, an incredible thrill to see so much from a new perspective. After all, how many humans ever had the chance to fly? The only problem was that by the time the young scholar had grown comfortable enough to enjoy the views, he had almost forgotten that he was now a captive. His mind had already wondered to this amazing opportunity.

This changed quite quickly when they reached the cave, however. When this strange creature finally set him on the ground, Chris turned to look at it more closely. No, it cannot be. They are creatures of lore! They don’t exist!! Certainly no where near Metedane! But then it occurred to him, they were no where near his homeland. This, dragon, as strange as that was to believe, had captured him, for what purpose, he could not know. So for now, out of fear, he walked in quietly, frightened for his life at the moment. That would likely change soon, however.
