Wail, you look fancy as anything! What kind of shop do you run in your clan's square? What patrons do you serve? What are some things you don't like about business, and what are some things you love about it?

You catch Wail just as he hands a stack of neatly organized papers to a fellow orange coatl with small gold glasses. He appears flattered upon your compliment. "I do my best to keep myself looking sharp, tis the burden of the hospitality business." He shakes his wings with a dramatic flare. The other coatl just rolls his eyes as he shuffles through the papers before flying off. "I run a few businesses here but by far my biggest one isn't a shop, it's our clan's main tavern. Big enough to host a whole herd of imperials quite comfortably with hand prepped food and the finest spirits of all the flights! As for who we serve? Why everyone my good dragon! Guests of all colors are more than welcome to stay and grab a bite and relax while our talented bard Zelus tells one of his wild stories, now there's a real treat! One of our most frequent customers are the tunnelers, a group of mostly gaolers and more recently, banescales that maintain our beloved systems. Quite a loud bunch they are, sometimes they disturb the other guests too unfortunately..."
"As for what I love about business... well I hope this first answer isn't too sappy but I love the variety of dragons and creatures one gets to meet. I often mingle among my guests to make sure everything is satisfactory and up to our standard, whether that be the quality of food or service. I've heard more than my fair share of claims of feats of strength from the younger ones here, or older more wizened dragons brewing over reports of upcoming wars. I also rather enjoy some of the more dull things of business, nothing makes me happier than knowing everything is running smoothly! As for things I don't enjoy.. hmm. There are definitely a few... characters... that I'd prefer to stay away. Every once in awhile there's an occasional charlatan who attempts to scam me of my produce. And I must admit I could never love all the paperwork that comes with business!"

Eldur, do you wish to be bigger or are you content with your current size? Do you think that being bigger would make your job easier? Also, why do you hate hugs so much?

The small gaoler lifts her talons and gives them a long hard look. "I suppose being bigger would help my old job, though I must admit I don't realy go out and hunt all that often these days. (It would also make me taller than Veramur! Ha! Oh no but wait, then I would be
too big to cuddle with her! D:)
I don't actually... hate hugs really, at least not from Veramur or Mother, it's just, have you met Vera's parents?! Or no, really have you met Zelus? He's really sweet and loves his husband and daughter to death but that also extends to
me, which includes bone crunching hugs! Arg I can only take so many! And generally dragons tend to react with wanting to hug me when we first meet. Like hey though, I'm not a plush and sure I may be ridiculously fluffy and hug-sized but I'm not a baby! D;<"
@/Minstrel It appears you got skipped by accidentally so I hope you don't mind me asking you a question!
Sentinel you seem a fair bit more mysterious than your fellow Starborn, and far less flashy/pink. Are you a seer of sorts? Or maybe just an expert in a different type of arcane magic?
