Growing up near Rotrock Rim, Kahlo saw the pilgrimage that many dragons took to reach it. She had a deep-seated understanding of journeys, and how important it was for some to be able to see the completion or the end of one. However, due to the dangerous trek, many dragons never made it. The Scarred Wastelands held many dangers and illnesses, and there were nomadic clans that weren’t too kind to travelers. It was a wasteland of bones, a symbol of warning. There was a lot of destruction, and Kahlo made a vow to herself early on that she wouldn’t be one to destroy, but instead create. When she outgrew her own clan, she decided to make a journey for herself. At the time, she didn’t know what her goal was or where she would end up, but she knew that starting a journey was difficult. She also knew that ending a journey was the worst part, whether a dragon made it or not. At first, the journey was hard. She wasn’t used to constant traveling, and was sore for the first few months. It was hard getting used to the harsh climates, where to obtain food, and how to approach different clans. Knowing when it was best to leave some dragons alone was also a lesson hard-earned, and had forced her to learn to sense when to hide. Over time, the travels became easier. She traveled through the Tangled Wood and eventually found herself at the end of the Sunbeam Ruins in Lanternlea Port. There, as she was walking through the Port, she found herself at a crystal and glass shop. Within the shop, there were little glass figures, blown glass bulbs, and windchimes made from crystal and glass that made a sweet sound when you entered. Listening to the sweet sound of the chimes, Kahlo had a deep sense that her journey was meant to pass through here. She approached the shopkeeper and asked, “Who makes these wonderful glass chimes?” The shopkeeper looked up from their book and pointed at themselves. “I do.” “Will you teach me how to make them?” Kahlo asked. The shopkeeper smiled. “Of course, you can be my apprentice.” 
Kahlo spent a few months learning everything there was to know about glasswork. How to blow it, how to carve it, how to form it into beautiful things. During these lessons, she realized that what she had set out to do when she started her journey was right here: learning how to create instead of destroy. The thing about glass was that there were ways to make it stronger and there were ways to make it easier to break. Sometimes, one had to break the pieces in order to create something new out of it. Creation out of destruction, and that was what Kahlo loved the most. After learning for many weeks, Kahlo felt an ache in her bones. She noticed this ache as the need to be back on the road again, and after a heartfelt goodbye to her mentor, she journeyed on. She carried a few of her creations with her, as well as some glass, which was burdensome. But she couldn’t find it in herself to offload any of it. She couldn’t bear the idea of not being able to create. So, on the road at night by a fire, she would work with the glass. Those were her happiest moments, to be on her journey, her claws creating art.
One day, Kahlo came across a small village. The village was in a panic, because a hatchling had not returned home the night before after playing in the woods with their friends. Search parties were sent out, but nobody had found the hatching yet. Kahlo promised some dragons that when she left the next day after selling some of her glass artwork, she would keep her eye out for the hatchling and spread the word to other travelers. As she was leaving the village, once she hit the woods, she paused. She reached into her satchel and pulled out one of her glass chimes, and hung it up in the tree right along the path that led to the village. The twinkling sounds of the chimes was sweet as the glass gently moved with the soft breeze. She continued along the path, and she recognized that the path had many twists and turns. She had been through this forest before, and knew where to go, but perhaps a hatchling would have a harder time determining the right forks. So she left more chimes along the path, hoping that if the hatchling was nearby, they would perhaps hear the chimes and think to follow the sound until they reached their village.
Even though Kahlo journeyed through several more villages after that, and hadn’t been back to the village with the lost hatchling, she continued to hang her chimes. On fences, in trees, on signs. She started to view these chimes as a symbol of her journey, a journal of where she has been. The chimes almost always eventually lead to a village or to caves that a weary traveler could rest. Eventually, other dragons noticed this and word started to spread that if you ever were lost, just follow the sound of the glass chimes and it would eventually bring you home. Other nomadic travelers started to use the chime paths as official routes, and some dragons even started to create maps showing the routes of the chimes. The chimes became helpful to other dragons on their own journeys and to dragons who were lost. Kahlo kept on traveling, and even when she traveled along her own chime routes, she fixed the chimes that had broken down and put up new chimes where there were gaps. After hearing the stories from other travelers about how important the chimes were, Kahlo had the same deep sense that she had standing in the glass maker's shop all those months ago. That this was what she was meant to be doing. That her journey was not meant to end, but instead her journey was meant to help other dragon’s finish theirs.
