DO NOT EXALT

Uh-oh, looks like this curious fellow wandered a little too far from his lair (81613, jubilations), and now he's off to see the world! If ever you feel the urge to exalt, he'd really appreciate it if you could just return him home instead, or to the 'Dragons Off To See The World' thread, here.

Items carried and lost along the way:
cyan flair scarf, aqua deepsea bulb, a noggle familiar, noggle familiar, white satin tunic

_{Entry 1---- Clever but insecure Sterling is looking for some change. Being the runt, Sterling got his share of rough treatment from his kin back in the ol' hatchling days. He thought he'd get some peace when taken in by another lair only to run into his wicked aunt. He certainly gave it his best but he doesn't feel he's living as happy as he believes he can. He's now grown quite large for being the runt of the nest and he feels he's ready to experience what the world has to offer. Maybe a permanent clan isn't for him. Or maybe he just hasn't found his clan yet. He figures some traveling would be just what he needs as he mulls it over.

Entry 2---- His first stop was in the so-called 'Lightning Dancer' lair of the Shifting Expanse. There he met a Guardian named Cthylla, with whom he bonded rather quickly. When he later decided that it was time to leave, she draped a scarf over his neck and nuzzled against him, whispering that he could return whenever he wished.

Entry 3---- Next he paid a visit to an interesting Wind clan, made up mostly of neurotic skydancers and resigned Imperials. Their tightly-wound, always-exasperated matriarch Jexpyte showed him kindness: He enjoyed his time soaring through the clouds with some of the resident high-sprung spirals. He even became very close friends with a coatl... But alas, it was not to be. And so he moved on, but not before they gifted him with a small noggle that had been hanging about the lair, who had become strangely attached to the ridgeback. With a fond farewell, Sterling and his new neckwarmer, Ollie, were on their way.

Entry 4---- Sterling quickly found his way to a more chilly part of the world. Just as the frosty air was beginning to take its toll on him, he saw a glimmer in the snow below him, a crystal Tundra. It was the leader of an Ice clan, who saw his frozen wings and offered him a place to rest. The ladies of the clan swooned over the handsome Ridgeback- Sterling was nervous at first but quickly grew to love the attention. A massive winter storm had the small clan trapped inside for a couple of months, so they traded stories and prepared Sterling for his departure when the weather began to calm. The white Ridgeback left, saying his goodbyes and sniffing the corsage made of a rare daisy given to him for good luck.

Entry 6---- Sterling's next stop was in the Starfall Isles. The ridgeback found himself lost, deep within the Star Wood. Just as he feared he would never find his way back out again, Sterling stumbled upon a clan of Arcane dragons living inside a teetering tower. They happily took him in and Sterling made friends with the other ridgebacks living with Clan Wizardly. He did his best to help them with their magical projects and spent his free time collecting the strange fruits and flowers that grew within the woods. Though his life was peaceful, Sterling eventually began to feel ill at ease. He knew this was not where he belonged. With a heavy heart, he said goodbye to his friends, and continued on his way.

Entry 7---- Next, Sterling headed to the Crystalspine Reaches, where he met with a small Arcane clan. There, he met the clan's winterspell mage, Skadi. Together the pair traveled to the Snowsquall Tundra so they could privately nest three hatchlings. Once hatched, they carefully made their way back to Skadi's lair, where two of the hatchlings made their ways to new clans, and soon their father followed in suit.

Entry 8---- The poor directionally challenged fellow found himself back at the mouth of the Starfall Strand and entered, hoping to cross through and make his way through to the Observatory. He needed to make one last stop to see the stars through one of the many telescopes before he could leave the Starfall Isles. He tromped through the Wood as quickly as he could, before he had any time to consider that he may get lost once again. Through the crown of the trees, he could see the sun slowly setting. Though he had heard how beautiful the Wood was at night, he had no intention of witnessing this himself. He hightailed it out of the forest and settled on staying with a very diverse clan at the base of the observatory for the night. The clan leader took him to a telescope, where he could witness the wonders of the galaxy. Pleased with such a glorious sight, he decided to leave the next morning. Time to get out of Arcane territory... or at least, he hoped.

Entry 9---- He managed to leave arcane, only to wind up in an even bigger place that was the easiest to get lost in. This was the abiding boneyard, all the way out in the plaguelands. He was first met by the female skydancer zugaikotsu who seemed to be nice, until she got him even more lost, and set a mass of shattered serpents on him. He would of not made it, if not for shadowdancer spotting her and warning Tarmistry, a powerful guardian. He quickly got in the way, and made the shattered serpents hide back underground. Then he helped the very confused and surprised ridgeback back into their clan, where the Nightbringer lectured zugaikotsu, to at least test those lost, with less shattered serpents, in case they could be useful to the clan. Sterling did not think he would like these strange battle hardened plaguelings, and he panicked when he realized his gifts had been missing for a while...but he could not remember where he had left them. The nightbringer decided to let the ridgeback stay with their clan, but warned him to keep away from Zugaikotsu(who he already planned to avoid) and the pure white coatl, Ziya. He did not know why for her, since she seemed so nice, but nightbringer gave him the stare down with all four of her eyes, and told him he can learn if he wants, but she is the most evil among their clan. He was wise and decided to take her word, so he did not go near ziya. He was relieved when both ziya and zugaikotsu left the lair, but he still had that wandering itch. For this reason the nightbringer gave him a Noggle named Nestly, and a white satin tunic before sending him on his way.

Entry 10---- After leaving clan Navrixros' lair, Sterling stumbled upon a wildclaw named Chronos while he was still in plague territory and the dragon invited the traveler to make his clan his next stop. When the two of them arrived in the Sea of a Thousand Currents, Sterling was well received by the Kaleidrops clan, so he decided to stay in their lair for a while. Soon he met Willow and they fell in love with each other, even though there was a great difference in their age and maturity. For her, he stayed in the clan and became one of its official members. But even the most pretty of stories comes to an end, and so did Willow and Sterling's romance. Though they decided to end things, both were heartbroken. In order for him (and for her) to move on with their lives, Sterling decided to leave the clan in which he had lived for two whole years. It was a sad goodbye, but life is full of surprises, and Sterling hoped that his would take yet another pleasant turn in the coming future...}

Final Entry

---- Forlorn and still heartbroken by the loss of his beloved, Sterling drifted on autopilot. Traveling with no destination, minimal rest, and constant. He was not sure how to feel besides lost. Many many days passed and the nonstop moving takes it's toll. He drifts off despite his best efforts, and crashes into the earth.
When he wakes, he notices the surroundings he lay in seem familiar. A quick look around confirms it. Home... His first home he left before starting his journey. Sterling has changed very much since he last saw the clan. He wonders how they are doing. Is Witchhunt still there? Dogma and Cutlass? ....his wicked aunt Roslyn?

Sterling was far from the yearling he once was when he left the clan. He has seen many lands, challenged and befriended many dragons, learned new skills and gained new knowledge. Fathered many offspring and loved. He has really come into his own yet his heartached with the absence of dear ones to him. He yearned to see his old family. He headed into his old lair in the Snowsquall Tundra. He was met with new faces as well as a few familiar, those familiar swarmed him and lavished him with affection, begged for stories and tended to his bumps and bruises. His wicked aunt scoffed at his presence but there was some indication she was impressed, even so, he paid her no mind.

He was home again.
