"Time, Noon. Location, Nosscreus Kingdom."
The man who drove Raphtalia and Emerome to their new home finally returned to the kingdom. "Hua, where have you been for the past two days? What happened to your carriage and horses?" "Yao, big sister. How high are you in the military hierarchy?" Hua panted. "I'm a high general of the royal guard. Why do you ask? That doesn't even answer one of my questions." Yao said. "My...my horses were eaten by wolves on my way back. But my carriage is something I need an audience with the crown prince for." Hua caught his breath.
"Eh? Okay, little brother. Come with me." Yao turned, walking to the castle. I'm pretty sure that Crown Prince Recknoght is in a meeting with King Grosmet, second prince Mancelous, the third prince Garou, the first princess Drasol, the second princess Hydrei, Queen Komo, his new fiancée Felicia, and our neighboring allied kingdoms. Whatever happened will be too big to dismiss since it obviously includes the villainess Dragonborne. Yao sighed.
Once the two made it to the castle, Yao led Hua directly to the conference room. "I'm sorry for interrupting your meeting. But my little brother has something to say about his recent voyage escorting Raphtalia Dragonborne." Yao said, "Any discussion about her can wait." Recknoght waved Yao. "Little brother, let's hear what is clearly important enough for Yao Taoni to interrupt this meeting about your new engagement." Drasol glared at Recknoght.
"Why should I care?" Recknoght scoffed, "Because our mother's great-great-grandmother was a Dragonborne until she became queen and left the ducal family." Mancelous stated. "Yao, you may give your statement." Komo looked over at the siblings. "While I don't know what my little brother went through, his carriage and horses are no more from the journey," Yao answered.

"Hua, please state your difficulties," Garou ordered. "During my escorting of Raphtalia Dragonborne. Her egg had hatched when we had reached her drop-off point." "Are you sure about that? From everything about her dragon egg, it's pretty much a dud." Grosmet spoke over Hua. "I'm certain, as the dragon that came from the egg...was a Child of God." Hua finished. "A Child of God? The dragon of legend." "I-it has to be a lie, King Leonidas." Recknoght stuttered.
"What did it look like?" "Queen Cleo, it was a female dragon. It had six fluffy wings, a large tail made of plasma, a humanoid head with a second set of eyes, murky wings on the side of the face, hardened magma covering the chin, basalt horns, and fluffy feathers acting as hair, two rows of teeth, a humanoid upperbody, black crystals lining its neck, runes lining its plasma-made hind legs, fluffy fur covering its ears, neck, wrists, and sides, and crystal and plasma spikes along the spine. It stood just above the trees of the area." Hua answered.
"That indeed is the description of a Child of God." Hydrei tapped her cheek, "I'd love to see the dragon of legend." Felicia smiled. "This means that a dragon unseen for one million years is no longer part of this kingdom," Leonidas stated. "I did hear from her maid's lecture that our measurements on how dragons hatched are inaccurate. Even if they came from the Dragonborne family six generations ago." Drasol stated. "She said that dragons hatch via mana and not time, right?" Mancelous cocked his brow.
"That viewpoint was adopted six generations ago when that ducal family got more engaged with noble affairs?" Cleo tilted her head. "Either way, by proxy of Recknoght's actions. We have lost the Child of God. Therefore, we need to get it back at any cost." Komo stated. "What does that mean mom?" Recknoght asked, "It means that no matter what you want or what anyone else wants. What she wants in exchange for access to her dragon is of utmost importance." Komo answered.
