Huloo's Journal
Entry 0001

I'm not going up to the Arcanist today. I was supposed to be sent to meet the Arcanist today, but I had different plans to myself. While looking for a secret exit, I found a cute little common podid, who happened to be near a cauldron. It was scared, so I took it with me. I snuck out, took one of those magic machines with the large star on it, and just flew off into the night. I never want to go back, but this machine may come in handy if I somehow ever get blown back to the Kingdom of Ascension.

Entry 0002

I came across a small clan in Plague. The inhabitants greeted me with open arms, apparently this is a safe haven for dragons escaping the war. I decided I might spend some time here to collect myself. I have been working under a dragon named Astilbe. She has allowed me to stay with her as long as I help her take care of the vast amount of familars she has. I am happy to say she has almost become a friend to me. I am going to leave before the next moon, I am curious to see the rest of Sornieth now that I have freedom.

Entry 0003

My next stop was the Hewn City. While the heat and glare of the Sunbeam Ruins could feel oppressive, I felt safe at a camp in the Hewn City Hellmouth. It certainly wasn't pleasant, but I got to meet a few other travelers. I even had a nest with one of them!

Entry 0004

I found a cave entrance while trying to cross through the Foxfire Bramble, and took shelter inside for the night. I decided to explore the cave system, but soon got turned around and lost, and eventually found an old clan living in an ancient temple hidden in the tunnels. There's even an underground lake that connects to the ocean.

Entry 0005

Today, I came across a small clan called the Order of Arvvoreen, and the dragons were very welcoming! There were so many hatchlings, and they were all very excited to play! Apparently, they don't get visitors very often. There was one hatchling, who had apparently been a hatchling for quite some time. About 2 years (at the time of this entry)! There are many bizarre members of this Order. Although I did meet one who stood out..... his name is Nightsky. He is the leader of this strange Order, and he offered to let me stay with him. One thing let to another and.... well, we had a nest. Two beautiful babies! In addition, there was a small caravan of performers that were just a delight! I'm not sure how I got near the Wind Sanctum, but I'm glad I did. What a wonderful lair!

Entry 0006

After staying put for a while, I eventually couldn’t resist my urge to set out to travel again. I bid farewell to my new friends, then took to the skies once more. However, I wasn’t ready for the strong winds I was about to fly through, and I got blown off course, all the way to the reaches of the Southern Icefield. I ended up hurting my wings after I crash landed, so I had to wander the snowy plains on foot. It was bitter cold, and there was no food to be found. I was starving. But eventually I reached the foot of the mountains, where I saw a bunch of tents and an old village nearby that looked like it could belong to dragons— and I was right!

The dragons were a group of mercenaries, who called themselves the Winter Blades. The leader was a stoic skydancer who never said a word nor made a single expression when I tried to talk to her, but the group agreed to let me stay with them for a bit while I recovered. They had one of their healers patch up my wings and gave me a bit of food, although they weren’t the friendliest or most social of dragons around. I heard whispers of a vastly more welcoming kingdom that was set much higher up, in the tallest peaks of the mountains, but the mercenaries never let me near it. And I could feel that silver skydancer’s cold glare boring into me every second of every day, making my scales crawl. I was grateful for the help, but I couldn’t have been happier when I was finally strong enough to get up and continue on my way, leaving these cold, stoic mercenaries behind with the utmost of relief.

Entry 0007
I found myself back in the Starfall Isles. At first, I was uneasy - I had thought I'd come back to the Kingdom of Ascension. However, a very orange obelisk glowered at me, and curtly asked my name. I did not recognize her, but I still hesitated at giving her my name. After all, what if she was a new member of the kingdom? After giving my name, she greeted me and said her name was Asia. She then turned and called for someone else named Morganite. She seemed vaguely familiar, I might have seen her flitting about in the air nearby the Scarred Wastelands. She quickly introduced herself as the resident adventurer, and personal scavenger of her partner, the resident merchant. Asia quickly added in a welcome before Morganite could continue. It was then that I realized I was safe - this was a very much different clan named "Magical Flame". Upon inquiry regarding the name, I found that it was due to the clan originally starting in the Ashfall Waste, then moved to the Starfall Isles. They reside in a clearing, which seems to be helpful due to the sheer amount of mages that use flames that match their natural-born flight's color. I thought it was odd, but then again, that's what they seem to pride themselves on. I learned there weren't very many fae, despite being an arcane clan in the middle of a forest, and the head of the clan (which, apparently, is different from the leader? there's two elders in this clan as well??) is an imperial that looks like he crawled right out of the pits of the shade. He doesn't speak much, if at all, though he seems friendly. I then met another fae, who said his name was Magik. They gave me brief descriptions of each of the dragons here. I wanted to ask how in the world he married and nested (SEVERAL TIMES) with an imperial, but I suppose that's none of my business. A few hours after entering the clan, a very bright, glittery fae approached me. She introduced herself as Moonbeam, the arcane rep, and she had an assistant named Dionysus, who was apparently the best arcane magica practicioner in the entire clan. He seemed nice. Moonbeam then handed me a small bundle of clothes, and said they were gifts from Xeno (the aforementioned head of the clan). I asked about how he was the head when they have a leader, and she explained the hierarchy. There was the founders, the head, the leader, the reps, the mages, the workers (like fishermen, farmers, and merchants), and then there was everyone else, from highest in the hierarchy to lowest in the hierarchy. Supposedly, they all have a say in what goes down, but whomever had higher power had more of an influence in the final decision. Though, everyone seems friendly and relaxed here, so it doesn't seem like there would ever be much disagreement among the higher-ups and their people. I asked about the difference, and she said that was a story for another time, and requested me to put on the clothing. I looked...pretty darn good, I'm not going to lie. I'll have to put these in my Carry-Around Jar, I quite like my look. I was even given a free lantern to hang off my tail to better illuminate my nighttime travels. A little baby veil approached me and asked what my podid's name was. I told him I had no idea, and he promptly named it "Looloo". I thought it was a funny little name, but it went to him when he called it that, so I suppose that's its name now. Overall, I quite liked it here, I might visit again, though I am unsure. I left by the next day, thanking everyone for their hospitality. I wouldn't be surprised if another travelling dragon had decided to hunker down and stay there.
