The Butterfly Effect
"Sometimes when I consider what tremendous consequences come from little things, I am tempted to think there are no little things."

______The day she hatched, she was not yet Poesia. She would not be Poesia until she emerged from the Twisting Crescendo, reborn by the will of the Wind.
______At first, she was a mute yet curious little Nocturne in a nest of Imperials. Among her enormous siblings she felt very small indeed, so she focused her attention and her mimicry on other very small things.
______She watched as dewdrops slowly slid from leaves, forming a growing puddle that insects could drink from.
______She followed a single ant as it carried a leaf all the way back to feed its colony.
______She kept her wings close to her body, mindful of how little bugs could be knocked off-course by the massive wing-beats of dragons.
______The insect kingdom had a great deal to teach her and she was an eager student. Her wordless watching made one thing very clear to her: All is connected. All has consequence.

_____It was while sleeping peacefully in the fields of the Windswept Plateau that she first heard the voice of the wind. In a whisper that drowned out the roar of the cyclone, it called her to the center. A request as simple as it was irresistible:
"Follow the sound of my voice."
_____What else could she do but follow?
_____She ended up at the base of the Twisting Crescendo. The stars above her seemed to blur and twist.
_____It is possible to return from the eye of the storm, but return is far from guaranteed for even the most powerful of the Windsinger’s fliers. Nonetheless, she threw herself into it without hesitation.
_____Her mind was her own; her actions her own. She had faith in her heart that the voice could be trusted. It carried genuine joy and affection even as it drew her into danger.
_____The flight was a struggle. She was but a hatchling, her wings underdeveloped.
_____The voice came again, encouraging her, lifting up her tired wings:
"I'm so looking forward to finally meeting you."
_____Things were finally quiet. The straining could stop.
_____Inside the eye of the storm she opened her eyes. She could not see anyone else, but she knew at once she was not alone. The currents of the Crescendo seemed to shift and undulate around her, like the movements of an enormous snake.
"You've done well to make it this far.
I'm proud of you."
_____She no longer needed to beat her wings. The air held her aloft with a tender care, as if she were held in the talons of a great creature.
"The world always needs a little push,
now and then,
to remember what's important."
_____The air shimmered with heat and the sky rumbled like thunder as the Wind exhaled. The hatchling’s next breath flooded her lungs with warm, wet air.
"You will be that little push.
But the effect you have on those around you
will be great."
_____Something fluttered in her chest, like an ancient bird finally waking.
"You have within you the power to change the world."

"Change will come.
Even if you're standing still.
So make your choices and make them loud.
Cause a few hurricanes."

_____The morning sun on her back woke her. She uncoiled from the flowering grasses where she had fallen asleep. An unfamiliar scroll case rolled out from under her. Curious, she picked it up. It was labeled: "Poesia." She opened it without a second thought. Three scrolls tumbled onto the grass along with a note:
“A magical form.
Means to amplify your voice.
Last, a gift for all.
Take these gifts of mine,
Then, dearest Poesia,
Call my children home.”
_____She could feel the magic in the first scroll. It would transform her into a Fae, naturally adept at channeling magic. The second was a series of rites and incantations that would enable her to manipulate the ley lines under the Plateau to send her thoughts and feelings on the wind.
_____The third scroll simply read “For the Poets.”
_____She turned her head to look wistfully at the Crescendo twisting above her.
"So not just a dream?"
_____She gasped, startled by the sound of her own voice.
"Apparently not! My voice...
Thank you, Windsinger."
_____She looked down at the scrolls again. She wasn't yet sure of all the details, but she knew she had a purpose.
Please do not exalt this dragon ever. It is a Wind Flight Legacy Dragon,
and if you need to remove it from your lair or need to leave the game,
please contact @Sinjin or @Paintminion or the Wind Flight Council, and arrangements
can be made to save this dragon.
