General Information
Pairing
Dragon Shifter (Cheese) and Dragon Rider (Ghost)
Background
Years ago, the earth was divided amongst the intelligent species inhabiting it. Humans, dragons, elves, orcs, ogres, trolls, mermaids, and several other species each got their own realms. Each realm had a signature resource that could only be produced on its land. Peace existed for several decades, until one harsh winter passed in the dragons' realm. They had a poor harvest and had to increase the price of their signature crop, flour. This enraged those in the orcs' realm, who had already been experiencing economic struggles. War was declared on the dragons' realm. The humans, long-term allies of the dragons, joined the war. They provided foot soldiers, riders, medics, and more. The trolls, also angry about the increased price, joined alongside the orcs. The other realms refrained from getting involved in the war, but many things could still happen to change the tide.
Plot
The dragon shifter (DS) was fighting in the thick of the battle when his rider was fatally wounded, and he nearly suffered the same fate. Being a shifter, he had a place with neither the humans nor the dragons, thus he resented both. He had only trusted his rider, and once he/she died he became even more withdrawn and blamed himself for not being able to protect him/her. The dragon rider (DR) was a war medic given the task of getting DS healthy again. Gender roles were practically nonexistent in his society, so there were plenty of female warriors and commanders as well as male medics and cooks. Healing DS proved to be extremely difficult considering how uncooperative and distrusting he was. They eventually got to know each other and learned to trust one another. Once DS was fully healed, they realized he couldn't work with any of the riders available. DR was asked to be his rider and hesitantly accepted.
