When Nelli first got to the lair he thought he knew what he wanted. He settled down with a few different ladies, got a nice handful of kids to call his own then Harely came along. That firecracker of a pup followed Nelli around like it was his job. Always talking the elders ear off, dragging him out to little trips around the wasteland. For months Nelli wondered why he let the little dragon drag him around and make conversations with him, the other dragons in the lair never did that. Nelli was always the stay at home and read a book kind of dragon, everyone else just kinda left him alone. But Harely didn't, and Nelli wasn't sure why he let him either.

It wasn't until Harely started to bring him little gifts from his adventures outside that it clicked, he loved Harely. Being the shy dragon he was he never said anything. Harely was the first to say something of course. Pulled Nelli aside and said he loved him, then asked for kids. At first Nelli was stunned into silence then he agreed, and helped make the kid with a willing partner. The happy couple are now proud parents of Petro, who is a bookworm like his indoor Dad.

Since he was born in the fire flight he has always found the area of plague cold. Other members of the clan tried to help him by building a fire pit in the middle of their cave but it wasn't enough. Harely grew worried of his mate and decided to get him some of those fancy furs he saw richer dragons wearing. Months and months he saved his shiny pennies until he was able to buy a fancy fur coat for Nelli and then, that was enough for him to stay warm.
