A Dragoness's Memory part 1
I'm Soaring through the Sky...
How long has it been....
How long has it been since I was born...
Dragons Hatch from Eggs...
But the first one hundred Dragons were made by the goddess of fire...
We came to existence as adults...
All of us knew our role..
And I knew mine...
I was to be Queen...
The Dragon Queen...
My kin are the strongest of all Mankind...
And I'm the strongest of them all..
That's puts me at the top...
It's kinda lonely...
I remember leading my race in this world...
I remember that we were not Alone...
I Remember Fighting with a large Aquatic monster over a Whale's corpse...
I remember war and Carnage...
My Kin are violent...
I remember my first equal enemy...
I remember how much I liked fighting her...
I remember....
I remember how miserable I was...
I was made to be Queen...
And had no other Purpose...
I remember struggling at my job alone...
I remember Looking for someone to help...
I remember lines and lines of suiters who came challenging me for the right of king hold and my hand...
I remember them all failing and dying bye my hand...
Why did this have to be my job...
I like the honor...
But everyone...
Even my kin....
fear me...
It's not like I chose who I was and what I am..
I'm a Dragon so I have to be strong...
I'm a Queen so I have to Lead...
I'm A Dragon Queen so I have to be ruthless or else my kin will go out of line...
I remember being lonely...
My only solace was Fighting another Queen who shared my pain in her eyes...
I remember....
I remember meeting him...
I was flying through my lands...
And came to a very impoverished area...
A agricultural area...
Dragons are a higher race...
But we still need food...
Although we can hunt, if a bad season came, like a drought or winter, then we'll struggle to fined prey...
And although we can buy from other Kingdoms, we need to achieve Self sufficiency in order to guarantee our safety...
Otherwise In case we went to war with other races, our food supply would be cut..
And Dragons the treasures horders they are, are too cheap to buy food...
So we needed someone to work at farming and raising Cattle...
But who...
That is simple...
The weak...
Dragons are strong...
And respect the strong...
The weak have no place among us...
So those who can't fight are tasked with supplying our food...
I look down and as I admire the land.. I see a strange field...
Emerald: "mm... What is this small red berry?"
I taste it a little...
Emerald: "SOOO SWEET!!!"
I don't know what this is called but it's sweet, how come I never tasted it before, well I usually go for meat, I should probably broaden my diet.
Emerald: " *munch* *munch*"
I eat another berry... And another... And another...
And another...
???? : "stop it, this is mine and mothers field, it all we got so please stop"
Emerald: "mm... Whose there..?"
I turn around and see a small boy who looks like he barely reached adulthood...
Still he still looks a little childish and girly...
To think that there are such pathetic Dragons in my kingdom...
Dragons are born in their dragon form, but when they reach 5 years old, they turn into regular children, after that they have to train hard to be able to learn how to transform again, And even then they can't keep the form indefenetly as it consumes alot of magic power, between all the dragons, I'm probably the only one who can spend her entire life in a dragon form without being affected, still I use the human form when I need to.
Emerald: " *munch* "
Crow: " I SAID LEAVE THE STRAWBERRYS ALONE"
Emerald: "mm.. So these are called Strawberrys *munch*"
Crow: "WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU THIS IS ALL WE HAVE, STOP ALREADY"
He tries to charge at me...
*SMACK*
One flick of my finger and he falls down..
He really is bad even for his age..
Emerald: "I'll pay for them, so get lost already"
Even if I'm a tyrent, I won't steal from my own people..
Crow: "I don't.. Care about that"
The kid stands up again..
Emerald: "mmm..."
Crow: "THIS IS WAS THE LAST FIELD THAT ME, MOTHER AND FATHER WORKED TOGETHER ON BEFORE HE PASSED AWAYYY, AS IF I'LL LET SOME STRANGER WHO BROKE INTO OUR FARM TAKE IT"
The kid's father passed away?
But dragons have long life spans, and if I'm older then this kids father then he should be probably still alive?
Unless he died in a battle?
But farmer Dragons aren't allowed to enter the battle field..
Emerald: " how did he die?"
I asked with genuine curiosity...
Crow: "...."
Emerald: "what's wrong why hesitate..
Speak up.."
Crow: "he....
Died of illness..."
Emerald: "..."
Crow: "...."
Emerald: "..."
Crow: "...."
Emerald: " *pft*
I can't control myself.
Emerald:" HAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAJAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA"
A PROUD DRAGON ACTUALLY DIED OF ILLNESS.
It's not unheard of, but highly shameful...
Dragons have the strongest and most resilient bodies of all Makined races, even above most monsters...
Emerald: "HAHAHAHA HOW WEAK WAS YOU'RE FATHER..
EVEN AMONG FARMER DRAGONS HE MUST HAVE BEEN A DISGRACE AND SHAME HAHAHAHHAHAHAHA"
Crow:"..."
*drip*
*drip*
*drip*
Emerald: "he..."
He's...
Crying...
What have I done...
Even for me...
That was....
Dragons have a very different view on death, when a friend or enemy dies on battlefield we laugh while honoring there bravery and life, as to end it with happiness...
And because wars are the only way dragons dye with their long life span, most funerals are, a group of dragons laughing and celebrating their friends accomplishments...
But this is different...
I shouldn't have...
Crow: "apologize..."
Emerald:".."
CROW: "APOLOGIZE FOR MY DAAAD!!"
I should apologize..
I should...
Emerald: " I..."
No...
I'm the Dragon Queen...
I reward strength...
I punish weakness...
I WILL NOT APOLOGIZE FOR SHAMING THE WEAK
Emerald " Bow"
I say while I activate my (imperial privilege)
*Thud*
The boy falls knees down on the ground..
Any dragon who's under my imperial privilege will not be able to go against my orders.
Hid instinct should have alerted him to my identity by now...
I'll just leave and send someone to pay for the field later..
As I turn around to leave...
Crow: "I..."
Emerald: "!!!"
HE'S RISING UP...
THAT SHOULDN'T BE POSSIBLE...
My imperial privilege is absolute to all dragons...
None should be able to break it...
Crow: "I... don't... care..."
He's struggling to walk closer slowly to me...
Crow: "I don't care if you're a Queen or a god...
APOLOGIZE TO MY FATHER NOWWW!!!"
He makes his hand into a fist and weakly strikes my stomach...
It didn't even feel like an ant bite...
*THUD*
He loses conscious...
Emerald: "...."
