Added a couple more stories to the thread! These were written quite a while ago, and it's only now that I've had time to clean up the coding and transfer them over. Both of these feature Lethe, a member of Farallon's [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/forums/drs/2834947]Barghest lineage/subspecies[/url]. Farallon also wrote Lethe's starter lore, featured below:

Hope you enjoy reading these! It took me a couple of years to come up with the lore and put everything together, and it was nice to finally be able to add the first two parts to the thread. Thanks for stopping by!

Sometimes I write lore in my dragons' bios, but I'm too lazy to transfer it to the thread [size=1]or reserve all the posts I need[/size]. This one's a super-short scene involving one of my newer dragons. Enjoy! ^^

I've really enjoyed reading all your recent updates, but Caelifer's story especially took me! I am reworking my clan's lore to be more of what I originally wanted it to be (a clan centered around a menagerie of all Sornieth's creatures), and Caelifer seems like someone my clan might like to hire from time to time! Any chance he might someday be open for a lore connection? When I manage to get my act together and stop getting tangled in Sornieth taxonomy instead of writing actual lore for my clan, that is. Either way, his concept is delightfully creative as always! I wonder how you can manage to come up with so many rich and compelling stories for all of the dragons you have...and cramming these concepts into quick and punchy bio stories is doubly impressive! I am ever excited to see what you come up with next :D

@TheAwesoMew Oh wow, your lore rework idea is interesting! Would definitely love to see more of that once it's ready -- if you have a lore thread pinglist, I'd love to be added to it! I couldn't find a widget or remember if I'd asked to be added before, so I figured I'd request just in case. ^^
Yes, Caelifer's open for lore connections! That sounds like something that'd be right up his alley. Feel free to ping or PM me anytime, or if you'd like to connect with some of my other characters!
Funnily enough, his "mighty hunter" concept was inspired solely by this piece of apparel:
[item=hunter's hat]
He doesn't have one yet, but it's part of his outfit plan. I tossed various color-matching clothes on him and decided to build on the Hunter's apparel since the feathers matched his tert so well. After that, I tried to figure out how the other pieces would fit -- chiefly the incense and the shurikens. The story then grew from there. So glad you enjoyed it btw -- a lot of my lore is sprawling, so I'm always glad to see that even the shorter pieces get some love. Thank you for your time and kind compliments! [emoji=heart]

I finally have time to go through and read the wonderful lore updates that you have!
Soul Searching: The line "We found his soul" made me want to start screaming. I love the idea of amber holding so much power, and Sargon is a character that I find very cool!
Children of the Mirrors: Ohohohoho, I love beasts and I love messed up mirror stuff, I love this story so much!!! I am so curious about the hatchlings (the ones who reflect fears, how juicy!).
re: kirea gilded (whereabouts unknown): I love the format of journals and letters, I love how the voice changes so much. Maybe I should write more journal chapters, especially with my historian dragons.
In Memoriam: Oh, what a tragedy. This is such a beautiful story. I love how it tied together Children of the Mirrors and re: kirea guilded (whereabouts uknown). The aspects of memory, the story taker, the shapechanger, all of it is so so so good!!!
A Story for Caelifer: Caelifer sounds like a fascinating dragon, I love a good hunter. This is a great story!
