The mansion was huge. As we started walking, I was again remined how small I am. 'I want to grow up! *sniff*'

The whole outer layer of the mansion was of the same color as the temple looking building that we saw when we arrived. It resemble white marble.

What first caught my attention was giant fountain statue in the middle of the road. It was in the image of young dragon that is ready to roar. I tried to imitate the pose, but all I could hear were chuckles from my mother. This is embarrasing!

"That's your grandpa when he was young" still smiling she explained the statue. She continued "Long time ago, he was a war hero-"

"What do you mean 'was'? I'm still a hero! " interrupting her, grandpa took the same pose as the statue.

"Don't yell in front of Tamariesha or I will tell mother about your 'hero' behavior from earlier!" my mother said.

"I'm all quiet" her statement had more effect than my cuteness. After their exchange, we walked towards the big doubledoor and entered the mansion.

Mother looked around and after few seconds, she yelled "Mother, we are home!"

At that moment, light brown dragon started running towards us. Despite running, you could sense aura of divinity around the dragon. The exact opposite of dark aura that grampa showed in 'white temple'.

"Alicia!! My little Alicia! Where have you been? Have you been eating enough? Did this old geezer did something that you had to leave for 50 years?" she asked several qiestions in a row.

"M-mother!" embarrassed, mother exclaimed.

"And who is this little cutie behind you?" with a smile, the dragon asked my mother.

"She is Tamariesha. Your grandchild..." walking to the side, mother revealed me to her full view.

"Gr-grandchild? I have a grandchild!? " clearly happy, she walked closer towards me.

"Dear! You hear? We have a grandchild!" looking at grandpa, she said happily. "That's the first noble baby for 500 years! And it's our little Alicia's child"

"I know Marie, calm down a little or she will be scared of you" grandpa pointed out.

"I'm not that scary as you! Right sweetie?" she asked while turning her head towards me. I guess she might be lively, but not that scary.

"Ai~!" I had to use my cuteness for the answer.

"See dear? She said it herself!" still full of smiles, she took my mother's and my hand.

"Like I care!" said grampa. Is he sulking?

Grandmother continued with "Anyway, we should move to living room, standing here in the hallway is no good" as she started pulling mother and me towards one of the big rooms. I take it that I have two energetic grandparents? I should get used to it and enjoy my new life.

"Tamariesha, from now you are part of our family!" while saying that with a smile, we entered the living room.

My new life on the Dragon island starts from today! I just hope it will be peaceful.
