Hello everyone! There are a few things to talk about tonight!
First, the listings have been updated with a small handful of dragons. I tried to pick something different from what we usually showcase. You can expect these dragons to be removed from the line-up faster than donation dragons usually do, since it's a more experimental selection (I'd estimate about a week). You can identify these dragons in the listings by the fact that there are no "Donated by" on their form since they were bought from the AH.
Secondly, I forgot to close the lotto x.x I'll draw the winner later tomorrow because I'm concerned they might miss their name in this wall of text so keep your eyes out for that!
Thirdly, I posted the father's lore yesterday but forgot to include the pinglist...
Here is a link to it if you're curious.
And finally, here's part 2 of Affogato's lore.

Previous entry
Barely a week after her arrival, she shed her kin's blood for the first time.
She had had some martial training in the Starfall Isles but she never expected to put it to the test. A raiding party of the Lightning Flight had descended on the refugee camp she was stationed in, intending on razing it to the ground. Thanks to a swift intervention by a local Clan, the casualities on her side had been limited but not entirely avoided. She could've been proud of the fact that she was able to hold her own (and even contribute) in the defense of the camp or she could have been upset at the depth of her naiveté for assuming the location she chose to assist would be spared by the war simply because it was far from the frontline but instead, she felt devastated. It would take her some time to cope with just how monstrous the raiding party had been - not in appearance, of course, but at how they had been merciless enough to slaughter innocent dragons. The refugees were already beaten and driven away from their homes, still recovering from injuries from their escape or simply too old or young to defend themselves. There was no reason to try to slaughter them, and yet, she would learn the attack she had endured was only one amongst many.
It's her inability to cope with the atrocities she witnessed that drove her to seek out a way to provide more than humanitarian relief. She petitioned the Knight that had come to the refugees' aid to allow her to aid him in his cause. He was reluctant, at first, but they needed more soldiers and she was a competent enough fighter, if inexperienced. She followed him to Teller's Rise, his home, which was populated by a handful of dragons at the time. They had been tasked to assist the defense of the Frigid Floes, a task far too great for their small clan but one they tackled head on with the doggedness typical of Ice Flight dragons. They were good people, caring, brave and virtuous and who wanted nothing more than to protect their kin against the invaders.
Their beliefs were strong but against the flames of war, not even the ice could preserve them.
