When I was first meeting my grandparents I wasn't really scared of them, but I was frightened at meeting all of the new dragons in Elysian. My grandpa is super nice, he reminds me of Dad. Hopefully we get to talk more. Grandma Dal is really different than Grandpa, but she seems nice enough. Uncle Alin(that's what he insisted I call him) was very funny, I loved his jokes. I was really suprised when they told me Elysian was in a cavern, I was kind of scared because I've never been underground before. But Rosie and Tori were excited, so I followed them.
The city is beautiful. There is a river running through the cave, huge pretty lanterns hanging from the ceiling and runes covering the walls, and little creatures hiding in the bushes. They are adorable, and hopefully I never see one that's not.
Grandpa wanted to give me a tour, and he introduced me to all of the dragons in his clan. They all were nice, but I was a little scared to approach them. I met Grape, a pretty purple Wildclaw that seemed nice, and I think I'll visit her tomorrow. We arrived a little later than expected, so we didn't have that much time to do things but that's okay.
I'm really glad Mom and Dad got me this journal, I love writing in it. Hopefully I'll see more of Elysian soon, it was actually kind of fun to roam around and see the pretty city. I'm about to go to bed because I'm quite tired, but I see Rosie writing in her journal. She's trying to hide it from me, but I can tell she likes her journal as well. I don't know where Tori is, but I'm sure Grandpa wouldn't have let her run off to far.

Today went well. In the morning, I met up with Grape and she told me about her dreams. She had many dreams, and that meant many stories to tell. They were all magical, and she told me they were stories of the past. Memories from long ago, shattered and broken, and Grape put them back together. It was hard, she said, to be tasked with this. Memories are such a dear thing to dragons, and without Grape their past would be lost to the wind. I asked her if it was a burden, to carry the weight of so many on your shoulders. She said it was a blessing, and it gave her a purpose. All of the secrets, all of the things dragons never wanted anyone to know; they were restless. They were itching to be heard, seen, and Grape helped calm them. She told me the good dreams, though, the ones about dragons playing in the snow, celebrations, stars, traveling over mountains and hills and oceans. I don't understand how one dragon can hold all of those secrets, how she doesn't get lost in time. Maybe she does, but the strength of all of the dragons depending on her woke her up time and time again. I guess I need to remember that.

Elysian is wonderful. There are so many things to do and see, so many dragons to meet. When I first arrived, I was afraid others wouldn't accept me bit everyone here is so nice and caring. I know Rosie doesn't want to stay much longer, but I can't help loving this clan.
The Crystaline Gala has been great as well. Today I danced and laughed and ate with the dragons in Elysian. I loved it, and the funny thing is I wouldn't have even gone if Rosie hadn't told me to. We stayed up way past our usual bedtime, but Dahlia said it was fine. Rosie got bored and left pretty quickly, and I haven't seen Tori at all today. I heard her talking about training with Uncle Alin yesterday, so that's probably what has kept her so busy.
I think something is going on in the Unala clan. Vamir has seemed very stressed out and worried about something, and whenever I ask about Mom and Dad he gets all nervous. Dahlia tried to cover it up, but somethings wrong. I hope we find out what it is soon.

I was sleeping until late this morning. The past few days had worn me down, and I'm glad I got a little extra rest. Grandma and Grandpa have been in great mood, and I wonder why.
Just a little while ago Grandpa told be to start packing up my things, because me and my siblings were going back to the Unala clan. I can't explain how I felt, but I decided to talk with Vamir and Dahlia about staying in Elysian. They both were very kind, and said it would be wonderful if I stayed. I'm terrified of saying goodbye to my parents for good, but I.. love Elysian. Hopefully they will be happy for me.
I can tell Tori understands why I'm staying. I haven't told her yet but she knows, I can feel it. Rosie, on the other hand, is super sad. I told her and she got a little mad at me, but that's just how she is. I'm super sad to be leaving them, and I know it will be hard, but I'm willing to make the effort. Neither of them would be able to stay in Elysian, and I know I would never be able to settle in a clan of their choosing either.
I will be flying with my siblings and Grandparents to say goodbye to Mom and Dad, but I will fly back to Elysian afterwards. Hopefully I'll be able to write in here every once in a while, but I'm going to take a little bit to figure out who I am on the inside.

I'll be back soon,
