Full Circle - Set In Motion
A large bump and the muffled clatter of pebbles against the side of Brian's pickup served as familiar welcome to the Shadow Scales Stables. Two hundred acres, rather massive for a stable which hosted fewer than a hundred dragons, presented itself...
Progenitor
Light. It invaded her perception, the first since her old friend warmth awoke her so long ago. It filled her vision, rough and unfocused, and for a time the two sensations were all she knew. She did not know how long, but eventually the light...
