*Very well, little one* Ariwo said. He took in a deep breath, groaning as he stood up weakly. For as long as you can remember, Airwo hasnt been the strongest, but recently, he seems even weaker, like his body was slowly giving out over time. He dragged his tail along the ground for you to climb onto as his massive body began walking slowly through the rocky, craggy region the two of you lived in

She scurried up his back, feeling worried about his condition, but she couldn't help being excited at hunting, too. She had discovered a few years prior it was one of her favorite activities

Within a few minutes, Ariwo had brought you to a human settlement. The place was almost completely destroyed, buildings were burned and crushed and clearly long abandoned for at least 10 years. Ariwo made a sound of sadness as he let you down.

"It's up to you to find a tool... I am too large to get into the village" He said with sadness in his voice, sighing, but not saying much more.

(You can find a spear, sword, dagger, axe, or any other sort of basic weapon inside the village ruins)

she nuzzled Ariwo's leg after hopping down, before leaping into the village, she noticed a crumbling, singed tower and decided to check it out (spear time ;D)

After you picked the spear, Ariwo spent the next few weeks teaching you how to hunt until you were able to hunt for yourself.

Current Age: 11

Ariwo hadnt moved in months at this point. he would still talk to you if you spoke to him, but other than that he would just silently watch the world and you.

*Little one* he quietly spoke one morning. *There is something I must tell you* he spoke softly, looking sadly at you

Drakaina looked over, quietly stepping over "What is it..?" she asked. She had been so worried about Ariwo the past months, and she felt she had to hunt for him, too, which wasn't easy

*We return to human place* he said, bringing himself to his feet and having you follow him. The short journey took much longer than it reasonably should, but the sage of thunder and his weakening state was struggling to travel.

*Long ago* he began telling you a story. *A human settlement started here... they lived a secluded but closely knit lifestyle... this is where you were born* he admitted to you. *However, I, and another sage dragon had gotten into a horrible fight here... I was victorious, but in the wake of the fight, my powerful thunder had destroyed your town* Ariwo took a deep, sad breath.

*Everyone had perished in the rockfalls and crumbling buildings... except your dying mother... she begged me to save you, even though you had already perished as a newly born infant, not even a year old... but using part of my soul, I revived you* He tells you. *It is my fault you were not raised among humans as you should be, and the reason you have those scars in your body* Ariwo confessed to you. *I wanted to tell you sooner, but there never seemed to be good time* he sighed sadly, laying back down

She looked at her sage dragon, complete shock in her eyes, "I don't believe it!" she said, her tail swiftly slashing the air, "I won't believe it! It can't be true!", she looked like she was about to burst into tears, "It can't be true! That can't be why you're.." she suddenly stopped, looking at the ground, "I can't responsible for.." she suddenly broke into tears, her tail between her legs, "I'm sorry!" she said, repeating herself over and over again, as tears streamed down her face like a river heading towards a water fall.

Accepted!

You felt at home as you wandered through the vast tundra, for as long as you can remember you've never felt the cold before, perhaps Zin could have been able to tell you more had she not been killed when she did.

In the open field you stood in, you could see some mountains with a settlement in the distance, and a forest not too far away.
