When news of the ball reached her ears, Quasar knew attending was a must. Her grief had consumed her far beyond the count of time. She had become a prisoner of her own making, and freedom could wait no loner. In her sorrow, she had forgotten things of a material nature. Before her empty shelves she stood; naught but rags and dust upon the wood did lay. Head hung low and tears collecting, she whispered a prayer to the heavens. The Spirits heard her lamenting and wept for her pain. Unable to bear the strength of Quasar's grief any longer, the Spirits descended. Six there were, and six did cast, a beautiful enchantment to lift her curse. From the rags that lay upon her shelves, silk of ethereal from the purest part of night was fashioned. Though beautiful they were, the Spirits labored on. Singing haunting spells in tongues long lost, they took the stars and made them dust. Cast upon the silk of night, the Spirits proclaimed their work now done. Quasar hardly recognized the dragon in the mirror before her. All the pain and sorrow had washed away, the element of hope only remained. Lifting herself up high, she smiled. The Spirits danced about her head, laughing and singing songs of a heavenly nature.
To the ball she went that very night. Excitement filled the air with a palatable presence. So many were there, and all in their best attire. She walked about the ballroom, reciprocating any greetings sent her way. Her gaze drifted across the sea of dragons before coming to a stop in his icy eyes. A warmth suddenly radiated through her very soul. A single word forming on her tongue, nay, not a word but a name.... [i]Pulsar[/i]

Fire, passion, heat.
All of these I represent.
Harmful yet helpful.
Am I evil...? No...
Just misunderstood, you see...
Please...just listen...
A defiled rep...
Not everything I touch burns.
For I'm not alone.
Someone does love me.
She has lit a fire in me...
One that can not die.
My Ceres, My love...
I share you with another...
But I am still yours.
With you by my side.
My life is a treasure trove.
Yours for the taking.
So I ask you this...
Will you accompany me...
To the end of time?[/quote][/center]

Goddess Nyx of Night
Oh darkness
envelope us in safety
Goddess Nyx
hold us in your warm embrace
Controller of wind
lighter of fire
bringer of water
caretaker of earth
cleanser of our spirit!
Goddess of night
bring us the stars
so we may see in light
and be safe in your arms
casting a circle in your honor
we ask your help
lead us to protection
so we are master warriors
We are your children
you love us all
in your name i call the elements forth
and care for us for we are so small![/center][/quote]

[b]Story or Poem:[/b]
"Dress to impress"
"Show off your wings"
"Make an impression"
"They'll love you"
The blue sheen of the mask made it hard to believe he was anything but silly looking, but the flower held in his teeth proved... something. Honestly, he didn't know what. His friends had helped him "dress to impress" and he had barely managed to keep his wings free of the ordeal. The cape lay heavy over him, and fabric was wrapped around his limbs and...
Why?
Minthe was never the kind of dragon to go to anything, and certainly never to wear anything that wasn't armor. Now he was wearing a silly hat, a silly mask, a silly cape, and just felt silly. This was silly. At least his companion didn't think he was silly, but maybe it was because he was finally wearing blue.[/quote][/center]

Green and white
While wearing brown,
He glows at night
But does not frown.
For he knows it to be,
As all can see
A simple fact of his color.
So do not be sad
If you glow a bit, too
Instead, do be glad
For being just you!
