Translucent

Okay I can do this Translucent told herself. She slowly sat down in front of her glass ball. She nodded to the shopkeeper who opened the doors and sent today first customer in. She had trained for years in the art of talking with the dead, but today would be her first day ever serving an actual customer. “Welcome please come in and take a seat. Who are we trying to come in contact with today?”, the newbie dragon asked trying to sound friendly. The Imperial female smiled at her and said “I was hoping to get in contact with my mother. I've only done one of the one other time and I really enjoyed talking to my father, I thought I should be fair and come to speak with my mother.” She said pretty calmly which was good for me. My trainer had told me about times when she would have dragons come in crying and it would take forever to calm them down enough to get them in contact with their loved one. This dragon though was nice and didn't seem to be worried, so Translucent took a deep breath to calm her nerves. “Okay then let’s get started. Could you please place your paw on the crystal. It might take a second but once I get in contact with your mother i'll tell you and you can start talking or asking questions. The spirit will be able to hear you but only I will be able to communicate with it.” I told her trying to keep my voice from shaking. She nodded and set paw on the crystal I went to set mine over hers but I somehow missed and pushed the ball of its stand and onto the floor. I quickly picked it back up and apologized. The Imperial just smiled and put her hands back on the ball. I forced myself to stay calm down as the dragons friends and loved ones burst through trying to talk to me. I pushed them out searching for the Imperial mother. I found her luckily it didn't take much time sometimes it would take me a half hour to find a certain dragon. “Okay go ahead.” I said. “Can you ask her how she’s doing?” I shakily asked the dragons mother the question who was quick to give an answer. She voice was a little shaking and hard to hear but I was able to make it out enough to give the Imperial an answer. “Can you tell her i'm sorry and that I miss her so much?” the dragon asked. Right when I started to give her mother’s answer another dragon burst in causing me to say “She doesn't forgive you. Wait no i'm so sorry that was another dragon!” I quickly stumbled over my words trying not to upset the Imperial. She only laughed before lifting her hands off the crystal cutting of all connection. “It's okay. Really you actually just reminded me a lot of her, she was really clumsy about things. I think i'll go now thanks for the good memory though.’’ The young dragon hung her head in embarrassment “Thanks a lot spirits.” She said before nodding for the next customer, hopeful this one will be better she thought.
