Than

The first time Than ever touched another Sage was a complete accident, but it opened a whole new world for the little fae. He saw things he had never seen before! It was magical… But it was over before he knew it, and it left a taste for more.

Now, Than actively seeks out other Sages to borrow their powers. He could try to get a corresponding gene to gain his own powers… But Than prefers it like this. This way, he can try out all kinds of different flavors of Sage abilities. And Than would like to try all of them! However… His latest find is not letting him get too close…

This is an older dragon, one with experience. So far, Than has mostly conversed with young Sages, who were interested in the effects of an empty shell like Than on their own powers. But this one, he was having none of it. Than has tried everything. From cheerfully introducing himself to pleading to trying to threaten the other dragon. Of course that last one didn't work, Than is way too small to be scary. But now he is running out of options. And he really wants to get close to this dragon. He needs to get close to this dragon.

Because of this, Than has a plan. A plan that has been weeks in the making. He has been monitoring this dragon’s every move, and now knows at exactly what time he falls asleep. And Than will enter his lair when the older Sage is sound asleep, to touch them and finally experience their gift. It’s unconventional, some might even say it’s illegal, but Than really doesn’t care. It’ll only be minute, it’ll be over before they’ll know it! And Than will have a new experience to add to his collection. It’s not that bad, is it?
