[🐾] The deerfox thought about the dragen’s response for a few moments. Arcadia City… That was a place that up until now he’d never even known existed. Though he did have to give it points for diversity. There were so many different species, some familiar and many others not so familiar. But all of it was making him just a bit uncomfortable.

“Arcadia City… Doesn’t ring a bell. Though if something brought him here, then it makes sense it’d drag me along too…” Right now, Nega was just thinking aloud to himself. Though while he was thinking, something occurred to him: this dragen, she seemed familiar… But they’d just met, so that’d be impossible, unless…

“… You know Twig, don’t ya?”

[🔥] Lunet scurried onto the snout of her friend, looking at the deerfox with curiosity in her yellow eyes. She wasn’t the only one that saw how much Nega looked like Twig. It was uncanny how much the two deerfoxes looked similar to each other. There had to be some sort of relation between them.

[🐾] Nega pushed himself onto his paws, groaning as he felt his joints ache. How long had he been out, and more importantly, where was he? He felt Twig nearby, who was confused and scared. If he was here…

Shaking the dirt out of his dark-colored fur, he began padding towards what could best be described as a massive city. The buildings here pierced the clouds like the mountains, and everything seemed much much more busy than in Trolberg. … Least he’d have little issue fitting in. Though he really should get some answers about where he was and how he ended up here.

Approaching what looked like a dark-colored dragoness, he calmly greeted her. Though his tone was cold and uncaring, he couldn’t stop the pain of both himself and his counterpart from slipping into his voice at seemingly random intervals.

“Hello there. I was wondering if you know where I am. I’m admittedly a bit lost.”

[🔥] The city was massive and cluttered from top to bottom with many different species from all over. Whoever or whatever was kidnapping anyone and bringing them to the island clearly wasn’t lacking in the verity department that was for sure.

But the big question was: Why? Why was everyone being dragging to this place and kept here like prisoners thanks to the barrier that surrounded it? There had to be a reason for it, right? Probably a no good one if past experiences had anything to say about it.

A voice piped up out of nowhere. Green eyes trailed to it to see a small deerfox there that looked a lot like Twig. The only thing about this one that was different was the coloring. It was reversed for him. Maybe they were related to each other? Siblings or twins. It would explain why they looked so much alike, save for their color.

[🐾] This… This had to be a joke right? This was beginning to sound like a sick joke without a punchline. Not even flying creatures are able to leave because of some stupid barrier?! If this was a joke, then it definitely wasn’t funny, especially not to the deerfox.

“You’ve got to be kidding me. So even though some of us can fly, or swim, or both, there’s literally no way off of this island?!”

This entire island was just a setup for the worst kind of joke imaginable. Letting out a defeated sigh, he decided he may as well just stick around despite his gut telling him that this entire place was bad news.

“Well, either way, it’s nice to meet you two.”

[🔥] It was clear that the deerfox was upset and rightfully so. He was just given news that no matter what happened, there was no way to get off the island. Not with that strange barrier keeping everyone locked in, even for those who could fly or swim. This place was like a deathtrap of some kind. This had to be some sort of sick joke that someone was playing on all of them. And it wasn’t very funny.

[🐾] Dragen? Spyder? Yea, he hadn’t heard of those before, himself. Though they did somewhat resemble creatures he did know of… Well, this’ll likely be an interesting learning experience for the both of them.

Though a question occurred to Twig as he silently studied her, if she has wings like that, then surely she can fly for at least a little while. She’d at least be able to get a good distance away if Twig’s assumptions were correct. Though for the moment, he was unaware of the barrier blocking everyone in.

“Well, nice to meet you both. My name’s Twig.” They took a breath, hoping that he isn’t about to tread on thin ice. “By the way, you can fly right? Why don’t you try leaving to go back home? Creatures that can fly would naturally have the best chance of getting out of here.”

[🔥] “I’m Coalra. This is Lunet.” The little spyder raised a pink, purple, and blue-tipped leg, waving at the deerfox. “Oh, yeah, I can fly alright!”

Leaping up into the air, my wings began to beat up and down akin to that of a bird’s. I hovered above the ground for a moment before lying circles around Twig with a grin. After a couple of rounds, I lowered myself back onto the ground. I couldn’t fly for a very long time, being a young dragen still. Flight for longer periods of time would come with age, or so Artemis had said. As of right now, I could only flight for a short amount of time before needing to land. But it should have been long enough to get off the island.

The only problem was the barrier. For some reason, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get through it, much to my annoyance. I was stuck here just like anyone else. What a pain in the tail that was.

[🐾] Twig was lost and confused and, if he was being honest, somewhat scared. He had woken up on this island with only a bag that contained some money, basic necessities, and some other things. Noticing the dragen staring at him, he turned to face her, his dark-colored eyes scanning the two. After a brief moment of pause to process what he was looking at, he registered her question to him.

“Oh, I’m a deerfox. Though I could ask you much the same question.” If he thought about it, it somewhat made sense that they wouldn’t recognize each others’ species. Whatever had brought them and all of the others here was clearly powerful enough to travel through worlds.

[🔥] A deerfox? Yeah, that was definitely not something that was around the Kingdom alright. Though it made sense. He had the appearance of a fox but with antlers and hoofs like a deer. A rather young one still at that too.

It also made sense that he had never seen nor heard of a dragen before. They probably didn’t exist in the world that he was from. Though if what Bindi said was anything to go by, dragens had been cast away to the Kingdom eons ago.

[🔥] What in the name of the ancestors was that? It wasn’t something that was seen around the Kingdom before, but then again, this wasn’t the Kingdom. It was an island. An island far from home. One that had a sort of magic carrier around it that, even for those who could fly, it was near impossible to leave.

Whatever sick trick this was, it wasn’t very fun at all. Lunet crawled from her perch on the lower part of the wing, scurrying over to sit upon the snout of her friend. Yellow eyes scanned the deerfox over. Even the spider hadn’t seen anything like Twig before.

[⚡] Starter call time to kick things off!

[🔥] Do you guys like dragens? What about female ones? What about ones that live in a magical realm with many different areas to explore and have fun? What about a dragen that has the power to control dreams and nightmares? One that will torch some baddies with her flame breath and sass?

What about a little dragen trying to fit in to a world that dislikes her and her kind? One that must save the world from those that threaten it? Even if she doesn’t want to?

If you answered yes to any of these questions, then this is the blog for you!
