UPDATE 3/25/12
A new poem was added at the end!
Note: for those whom have read Drachenscolderung, you’ll know who Terpunku is and why he’s in this issue. Another note: the stories from TSODR are out of order and it’s up to you, the reader, to piece them together in the correct timeline. Another note: familiarize yourself with the story Narcissus and the Dragon Birth.

“I don’t understand it. How can someone sleep with another person for no reason?”
The girl lowered her iPhone and smirked, “well, you’re an innocent virgin so you’ll never understand and I don’t expect you to.”
Narcissus lowered her coffee, it was the only time she ever tried drinking it. There was a light scoff somewhere between her smile, “I’m no virgin, and I’m not innocent either.”
She wanted to pour the coffee out, but this time she kept it.
She “lived” a little bit, not knowing the consequence of the coffee.

Dragonwave: Flower Pattern Factual
She ran as fast as her brown legs could take her.
They were close behind her, yelling things like “dragon witch” and “demon kisser”
She actually feared for her life, and it felt GREAT!
These
men wanted to harm her! All because of her dragon sons!
Something
so trivial was big to them
To them, Dragons are regarded as demons
She gave birth to a Dragonchild in one of their huts a while back
She didn’t know who could have told, but she knew someone was against her
Who wouldn’t be?
Right now she was holding the silver dragon in her arms as they chased her
It’s safety was her number one priority, albeit she was slow to recognize it
The dragonling was born with some kind of birth defect that a dragon doctor would have to diagnose and treat
“Dragon witch!”
They were still chasing her and she was still running
Sooner or later they would have to give up, she could go for HOOOUUURRSSSSSSS
“Oh no.”
Hours? Sure, if there wasn’t a large ravine blocking her way
She couldn’t simply “jump” across it, her legs weren’t coursing with the dragon god’s blood
Even if she had his blood, she still couldn’t jump
She’s afraid of heights
