"I can forgive myself for thinking terrible things, what I can't forgive
is considering them."

Dain's Story

Dain was found young in Dripcave Dregs by a family of gaolers. It was never really known whether his parents abandon him in the cave or if he wandered in of his own accord. Even if he did remember how he came to be there he didn’t talk about it. Just as he didn’t talk about most things. His gaoler family put word out that they had found a young dragonet in their caves and a few couples had come to claim him. Although through the very grueling interrogation of his adoptive family they all seemed to flee. To the gaolers this was a pretty good indicator that he was not theirs as they “weren’t that scary” and “any real parents missing a child would have stayed despite that fact.”

Though Dain was very nimble, being a skydancer and all, he was not really one for battle. With this in mind the warden of the order who raised him assigned him to their diner. It was a small family run business that mostly fed more of the family but they got an occasional customer here and there. Dain got used to the quiet life in the kitchen. He would cook a variety of frozen meals when he very rarely needed to and the rest of the time he could lounge about the kitchen reading or eavesdropping on others conversations. Was it really eavesdropping if they knew he was listening? He knew he was welcome to join in conversation but he only really spoke when spoken to.

That all changed when a certain deity stepped into the diner one evening. Everyone was a buzz around him.

“Have you seen her eyes? They have the most beautiful soft glow to them!”

“Forget her eyes, look at her feathers, they are as lovely as the midnight sky!”

“Hold on lot, is that a skydancer?” The warden’s voice rang out and that’s what got Dain’s attention. He hadn’t known the warden was making a visit, but there was also a slight curiosity about one of his own kind being at his place of work, right in the center of almost no where.

As a gaoler went out to greet her Dain could already sense the warden looking in his direction. Don’t look, he thought, don’t look.

Almost as if the warden knew what he was thinking she spoke, “Well aren’t you at least going to go keep our guest company?”

Dain sighed, “Must I?”

“Have you even looked in her direction?” She raised an eyebrow. Dain peaked up at the warden from the book he had been reading and gave a quick glance in the skydancer’s direction. He did a double take and set his book down. Dain was often silent but he was never stunned into it. The warden gave a sly smile. He knew what she was going to do, the warden was planning on having him deliver the meal that the skydancer ordered.

His first reaction was to object. That is what his limbs were programmed to do but all his mind was saying was go for it.

When they started to shove him out the kitchen doors with her meal he resisted very little, and what he did put up was mostly for show. From the second he introduced himself to her he was taken.

They never spent a moment apart. When Asili longed for home there was no question in his mind that he was going with her. They planned to have a whole herd of children. They planned to smother their grandchildren with gifts. They planned to grow old together. They planned to be buried where they met so they could be together even in death.

Until Asili’s sickness. Dain of course stayed by her side but there were many nights when he would stand by the entrance to their cave. Wondering if he made the right choice. Wondering if things would have been easier if he had fallen in love with the second skydancer who walked into the diner. Though he hates to admit it there were nights when he thought he could just fly away. Leave it all behind. But every night he went, he always came back. He always curled around his partner and weeped to her silently wishing she could forgive him for being so disloyal. He always put on a brave face when she woke and gave her whatever she needed.

Even if the rest of their promises to each other were dashed he made sure that one would always be true. That they would always be with one another.

One night Asili made true on one of their promises as well. He awoke to a child crying. Though Dain had trusted when she said she was a deity he never had any actual proof until he held his son in his arms. A son that Asili had created out of thin air that was the spitting image of each of them. He cried that night. Thankful he stayed and thankful his son could have a father.

Extra

His quote:
"Hold on, I still want you
Come back, I still need you"
is from the song Hold On by Chord Overstreet. I think the song perfectly suits Dain's feelings towards Asili.
