Walking toward the building, it's surprising how little is here. I can see the storm surrounding the area nearby, hiding where this place might be. Shame, I don't see anyone around. I am not sure if this would allow me too. I still don't know if this is just a dream or real. I know I talked to that big dragon. Suddenly I stopped in my tracks.

I look to my side, and see a familiar statue. A large regal dragon watching over the road. I took a big gulp and was surprised to see a statue of said dragon. It was that dragon I had helped. The one who called himself the father of Aether. I wonder if Aether came here to see his fathers resemblance. I bet he is proud of his dad. He was a very strong dragon. I bowed to pay my respects to him.

I lifted my head and continued walking down the road more. I need to see why it is that I am here. That big building seems to be where I might need to be. It took some time, but I got there. I saw a statue of that Dragon King fella, but looking up at its face hurt my head, so I kept my gaze low.

This place seems marvelous and grand. Very large halls I assume for the much larger dragons I have seen. The thought went through my mind wondering if this place has any unique creatures. I put it to the side as I wandered deeper into the building. I saw a room with steps leading nowhere, which seems strange to have. They came to a point like something is supposed to be at the top, but isn't.

This place seems really strange. I wandered out the back somehow, and came across what seemed like large pillars holding up elevated platforms. This place seems so grand. Chains stretching down and holding the platforms which are elevated. I could feel how much mana was just around. It's impressive.

I wasn't sure I found what I came here for though. I walked back inside the building and headed in a different direction than I had before. I passed more unique and strange rooms, which seem like they have a purpose but none of which I understand. This place and building is very strange. The mana here feels so free and happy. Like it's radiating out from here.

“Am I supposed to be doing something here?” I asked, out loud finally.

No one responded back. Not that I really expected anything too. I am not even sure why I am here. It was some more exploring this place when I came across something which really took my attention. Before I could focus on what it was I had found I found myself whisked away to another far away land. I stood in what looked like a battlefield of gods and dragons. I wonder what they were fighting that so many died.

A large dragon skeleton stood above the rest, while large god weapons lay scattered. The ground here long since has been dead. I pawed at the ground. It must've been a terrible fight. Walking up to the dragon I couldn't help but wonder at how strong of a dragon this must've been. Looking past the battlefield I could spot a large lake, and forests. This place is really pretty. Much different than places I have been so far.

I went to wander away when I felt the pull, right before I was dragged away this time. It's not that I just happen to be here, it's like some force is moving me around. I can't understand what it could possibly want from a dragon stuck on a planet. Suddenly I found myself on a large platform looking at the mountain with decorations of a blue dragon. There were many strangely dressed humans here seemingly worshiping this dragon. Loud noises caught my attention when I wandered over to this large pit-like place, which humans were fighting and the humans not in the fight cheering.

There were some humans sitting in chairs watching over it. Though two of the humans looked different. One being much older had really long pointy ears with silver hair, the other was so different it made me pause to wonder if it was a human, then I noticed many more strange anomalies within the humans gathered. They all looked so strange and different I found it hard to believe that most of them were all humans. Strange how these mortals seem to really enjoy watching the clothes fight.

“Is it really enjoyable to watch others fight?” I pondered letting my thoughts slip out.

It really called into my understanding of humans. I didn't know they like so much violence. I watched them fight, and though Hickory assured me humans are not capable of mana use normally, all of them here seemed to be able to. I was watching humans in front of me, wielding wind, water, fire, earth. These humans were really skilled at this. It made me slightly concerned if these humans got the power of gods would they try to fight them.

“What if they tried to fight me with mana.” I asked, remembering the look on the humans faces when I crushed their buildings and belongings.

I shook the thought out of my head, I had not seen this level of mana manipulation even out of Hickory yet. I should be fine. Though if I keep finding shades I might run into trouble. I feel that I have been getting stronger and a better fighter, I know that I am still small and weak for dragons.

I found that sensation pulling at me again, and I let it pull at me, but as it is I fought back for a moment, and I was in nothing. The brief moment between places there was nothing. Even more so than the abyss in my mind. In the brief moment which I halted, went from calm to terrifying really quickly. Suddenly, I felt like I was drowning in hostility. Bloodlust filled the air. It felt like a million, no billions of things wanted me dead. I invaded their space, I should not be here.
