Nothing too widespread, not if they wanted to stay the way they were, but there certainly were rumours. Tales, even. They told of a mysterious Island, existing between the lines of the world, drifting all around Sornieth, found everywhere and nowhere at once. They told of an island for outcasts, for runaways, for the needing, for those with nowhere else to go and everywhere else to leave. They told of a place, a [i]sanctuary[/i], where dragons could stay however long they liked, however long it would take for them to get back on their feet. It sounded unrealistic, really. Ever-replenishing food sources, a calm and peaceful life, dragons who welcome you no matter how you are, a place free from the touch of the Shade... again, unrealistic. And yet, the rumours didn’t dissipate. They weren’t proven false. And really, that only piqued dragons’ interest more. The rumours change overtime, of course. Little stories leaking out, short tales of gods and not-gods, the different personalities of the ones in charge, and more. But if there’s one thing that will stay the same for as long as the Island stands...

”Are there more?” you wonder out loud.

This time, without the Wishkeeper saying anything, you turn a corner, and blink at the sight of more books before you. Well, you suppose that answers your question.

I guess I’ll just continue until then

that’s a good idea

and another one!
