Majesty

Majesty closes his eyes and with a thoughtful expression "Hmm I never really thought about it them not being mine. I guess I was more focused on dealing with my feelings to them. Before I meet Giver I have never really had a meaningful connection with any of dragon as we were taking away from our parents at a young age. So once the connection was made I had to wrap my head around it." Now he openings his eyes with a weary expression "On the topic of raising them. At least when I got Giver he was self-sufficient. Pearl oh Pearl. All my assassin training could not prepare me for the fussy imperial that I'm raising. He liked to cry a lot no matter what I did. His temper tantrums were a sight to behold. Seeing as I'm skilled in magic I was able to use it to take care of him. The stroller I had crafted by the clan blacksmith was useful. He also got us a bigger cave to live in."
Majesty grumbles under his breath "I may have had some help from Violet Sky." he raises it "I would like to think that I did and I am doing a great job. I especially loved finding out about Daycare/sleepovers. Best things ever invented in my opinion. Well, that should be enough for your answer. Be lucky you caught me in a good mood. Now it's time for me to go home and relax in my lonesome as they are both at Violet Sky's place for the weekend"

Majesty flicks out his tongue before he speaks "You like the tough questions, don't you? My past clan is a clan of lies. We were told that the Gladekeeper chose our clan for a higher PURPOSE."
Majesty spills out the last like it is venom
"That our clan was like a golden child out the rest of the Gladekeeper's children. That our clan was lucky enough to have a leader that was able to get our clan into GladeKeeper good graces. For the clan to be in the Gladekeeper's good side we were to be enforcers of the Gladekeeper's will and must take out those who plan on doing her harm. At birth, you were chosen a role based on the color of your scales the darker the scales the higher rank you may become. "

Majesty sighs and tilts his hand away "My mother was lucky enough that she was a high enough rank for her to choose a mate of her own and was not stuck with have him chosen out for her. She chose my father who was just a simple chef as his colors were too bright to qualify for any other job. They had me and at my hatching, my colors were deemed good enough for me to be trained in the combat troops."

"So my mother trained me in all of her knowledge until it was test time and I was taken away. I never saw them again" Majesty now has a nostalgic look on his face "You know back then I never once thought about either of them, not for one second. After the test, I was put into a team and we were trained even harder. Our objective was given to us before we left for our first mission was a simple one the orders were to take out and get out. There was a clan of the dragons that were not following the Gladekeeper's rules they were selling items that they were not supposed to so it was the team job to take them out you only leave the hatchlings alive. I was most confident to complete this task and make our leader and the Gladekeeper proud"

Majesty turns his head to look in the eyes "Now do you see what the problem was. Back then when I first started I did not understand what we were doing. I thought we were defending the will of our deity but I was wrong. Apparently, the items the other clan was selling were items that my clan sold primary. My clan's leader was using us for their own personal gain there was no communication with the Gladekeeper. It was all lies. Lies that I was okay living with once I found out about them. until I saw how it affected Giver."

"Once you reach a certain a rank in the get put in charge of a team and I happen to get put in charge of Giver's and made the mistake of forming an attachment. When loving someone you do stupid things. Success means nothing if you are hurting the ones you care about and I learned that the hard way. As for Pearl, that story will be Pearl's ears only. It will be his choice if he wishes to tell another soul."

"Now I have answered your question. You better be satisfied. I don't go around telling others my life story."Majesty sticks his tongue in the air one last time and turns his head in another direction "It looks likes Pearl and Giver have managed to burn a dinner again... It was my favorite kind of fish too. Well goodbye you noisy dragon"
He turns his body around and disappears into the darkness around you both

"Geez this was long! Hopefully this answered your questions"

"Power always comes with sacrifices. Do you think it's worth it? Would you make a sacrifice to achieve power? Or would you rather give up power and escape sacrifice?"

The Coatl lifts his head and speaks the next couple of words with a very tired voice "Power and sacrifices... I do know something about that." He gives a light sigh "When I was younger and with my previous clan I would most certainly same that it was worth it. I would give anything to achieve and rise in the ranks to prove myself to the Gladekeeper and to my leader. My teammates were nothing but useless dragons that I had to work with. If I had to sacrifice one of them for the completion of a mission then so be it. But that all changed when a meet this skinny little skydancer hatchling who would not stop crying for his parents." He lifts his head up and gives slight smile "He was the one that got my eyes to open up that it is not worth it.That power means nothing if you have nothing else to live for. I kind of wish that I would have figured this out earlier maybe she would be here with me...But now I have given up my power and become my recent clan's hitman without a say just so the two closes to me can have a nice happy life. I may not be happy but at least they are. So yes I would give my power so I don't have to live with the sacrifices."
