Time was nice dragons roamed the land and were treated with respect. There was no war, and things were prosperous. Though for now our story takes place in a small town, some secluded place off in the forest. The town was filled with hybrids of all sorts, humans, and even elves roamed the place. Though the best part about the village if you had to ask the townsfolk would be the dragon that lived here. Now the dragon belonged to no particular person and they were just as free as any other dragon or person, though this dragon had chosen to stay here and help out the town.

The oldest member in the town could tell you tales about how the dragon had been here all throughout her youngest years.though the dragon currently only be about a teenager for their species.

So here sits the dragon at the moment laying with several children laying with it, the sun's down and many of the townsfolk are celebrating a successful day with no worries , most of the children and elderly are asleep somewhere near the dragon. The dragon rests lazily. Glancing around as people stop by and hug their snout or give them a rather comforting scratch behind the ears. Some offer thank you's to the dragon for things the large creature has helped with.

Though soon as the nights began to fall later and later people disappeared all to sleep in their houses. As the night continued on, the dragon stood and began slowly slinking their way out of the town, scales falling off in the wake of it's movement. The scales themselves were a darker black color compared to the forest green the rest had.

The dragon continued on, it had someone to meet. Eventually it made it too a small clearing in the forest, there sat on a rock was an enderman holding a block of snow. The enderman seemed focused on the slowly melting block causing a sizzling sound to emanate from their hands.

The dragon seemed to grin as they called out to their friend "E'dvyrt!" They called quietly as the skid to and moved to curl around the rock their dearest friend sat on.

E'dvyrt glanced up at them with a small head tilt as they smiled, though the smile itself dropped rather quickly "You need to go into hiding Wisteria,," the muttered as light staticy fuzz covering their words.

Wisteria tilted their head as they gently pulled the block away from their friends burning hands and replaced it with their snout. "Explain there's no need for me to hide".

"The humans, or more humanoid beings, they no longer appreciate you, the dragon of the Nether, he was slain,,," E'dvyrt mutters daring not to look the dragon in the eyes.

"E'dvyrt, no one has beat him it must be a rumor, an untruth, besides why would they hate us , we help them, and in then they help us as well".

The enderman looked to their friend briefly with blueish violet tears in their eyes "Westiria, they respected you but now their more advanced larger cities are putting out bounties, they're realizing how dangerous you could be how dangerous *we* mobs can be-" they choked attempting to hold back a sob as they took a breath "- Wes, They tried to take my pearl, My life force, my breath, by force,, ".

" You all usually trade them for blocks do you not ? " They tilt their head into seeming to grasp the brevity of the situation.

"Wisteria! " E'dvyrt shouts " Are you simply not listening to me! They do not care anymore! The have no need for peace or formalities with you and I. Your village is small but people know of it and they know of you! Soon very soon people looking for riches will be here looking to kill you Wes, they sent me as a warning! They kept me alive to warn, I've been marked and i'm telling you to leave! " By now the tears were starting to flow as the enderman gently cupped the dragon's snout.

" Then if I must leave you'll come with me, you will, won't you? " Wisteria pleads now understand the situation due to their friend's panic.

" Wes I can't, now leave, and don't-" the enderman's breathe was cut short as a sword broke through their torso and followed through breaking the flesh with a tear as their body began to fall limp before it simply disappeared into a small pile of ash on the ground with an ender pearl nestled neatly on top surrounded by a bioluminescent purple colored blood.

"Well, it's seems about time I shut them up,, I gave them their time" A voice spoke, a voice that belonged to a man holding a sword decorating in the same bioluminescent blood that also covered his face. Gingerly he leaned down picking up the Pearl with a grin.

It made the dragon sick, that was their friends life he now cradled in his hands, ever so carelessly. " Put them down and leave this place, you aren't welcome here ! " She shouts a harsh glare directed at the man as she bares fangs.

"how about you take your friends advice personally I have no need for the pearl, I wanted to send a dragon a little message though " he states holding the pearl as if he might crush it.

" I'll disappear you'll have no reason to see me, just give me the pearl set it back down " They tried to reason.

The mans grip on the pearl grew tighter cracking it some "And if I fail to give you the pearl you'll simply sacrifice yourself , won't you *Westiria* ." The man states a sick grin forming on his face.

"You have no right to call me by that name! Drop the pearl *now*!" They shout a growl building behind their throat.

"Fine I will" as he finishes the sentence he crushes the pearl in his hands turning to blow what's turned into small dust like shards to the wind. The rest of the shards he throws, pocketing one. "Now shoo" he states a smug yet sick grin on his face.

Wisteria slowly begins backing before turning and running , when they pick up enough speed and gain the space they take to the skies, opting to stay in the clouds as tears build up, they musnt cry, they must find their sister. It dawns on her now that E'dvyrt was telling the truth, their brother is now dead.

They fly wearily for hours, the sun rises and they've yet to land, worriedly they hope nothing happens to their sister. As they finally land they pace anxiously until they find their sisters Den. Hurriedly they run in , and they're immediately greeted by their sister restraints.

"Sister!" They call moving to bite and tear away at the restraints along with a few enderman and other dragons. They are one of the biggest among the others. Slowly the work is completed and they free their sister.

Tearfully the move and curl up beneath their sisters wing. Their sister offers them a moment of comfort before she stands "we need to leave, most of us have been touched by the void, many of the humanoids have done very *stupid* things, they've killed our brother , started *experiments* on the things our breath creates, they've created their own plague underground,nothing louder than a whisper can happen underground now, so we go to the void".

"The void will kill us!" Wisteria shouts worry flooding their voice .

"Then stay!I'd rather be killed by the void and take my days in the end opposed to being Where I'm unwanted and to be hunted!"She shouts in response growling at her younger siblings

"Sister,," they mutter, taking a breath as they flare their wings and turn away "Fine then, I shall, I'll make my own den and I'll stay safe!" They shout back beginning to make their way off.

Though our the surrounding months they proceed to make their own den, they fall in love, they lose their love to hunters, and the den is made deeper, many mobs moving it to help them turn a harty cave system into a home, eventually their sister sends them an enderman companion after he escaped with his life from the nether. Their breath produced forests, and creates a hide away for their den, though thankfully it was kept safe, and gown how the many nods that lingered made the area seem dangerous.
