What's Up in the Dragon Kingdom?
Once again, we've returned the realm overflowing with sorcery, mystery, and vast advance engineering science accomplishments. Where the vegetation was a precise replication of the universe of James Cameron's "Avatar" (Which is way overdue for the promised sequel!) And the fauna was a match for the realm of the Last Airbender.
Where the domain itself was an amalgamation of the Renaissance Era meets futuristic. Moreover, where Humans and Draco Beings currently lived in harmony following over a millennium in an unnecessary conflict.
While peace can grant you peace of mind while giving you satisfaction, one knows it cannot last, unless you strive each day to preserve it. You remember to teach each new generation the ways of peace. Thus the ideas of discord from ages gone by don't resurface once more, causing anarchy.
It was this understanding that was currently in the minds of King Toothless and Queen Moon Shadow. The captivating couple now was occupied at the moment with getting ready for the day.
(It was worth noting their Draco Being forms exceedingly resembled Princess Serenity and Prince Endymion from Sailor Moon. Although Moon Shadow's gown and the elbow-length gloves were blue-violet. Also, there were colossal fuchsia flowers next to her hair buns.
As for Toothless? His armor wasn't black. It was royal purple complete with the Night Fury emblem on his chest. Otherwise, they looked precisely one of the most profoundly loved couples in all of anime.)
"Darling, how do I look today?" Queen Moon Shadow queried gently to her love as she finished weaving her jet-black pigtails. She glimpsed away from her vanity mirror to gaze her silver eyes upon her attractive husband.
King Toothless, who just completed putting his long jet-black locks into its usual ponytail, merely glanced at his wife. Every time he gazed upon her beautiful figure, he only becomes further intoxicated with feelings of love and desire for his wife.
Her exceptional beauty came second to her tender heart. Queen Moon Shadow had an unlimited capacity for love. It was rare to find a soul so pure and overflowing of love. But the Queen of the Dragon Kingdom had an extremely pure heart.
For Moon Shadow, it was her husband's outstanding courageousness, unyielding altruistic and everlasting compassion she found most desirable. Toothless always put others before himself. Furthermore, he didn't let animosity or violence ever rule his actions. He was also the most magnificent Draco Being she knew of.
This appeared to be the reason they were a perfect match. Also, it was a good thing both of them had learned great deal patience. Especially when they had ten princes and princesses to worry about.
( If anyone from Earth saw their children, they'd immediately think the same thing. That their daughters looked like the Sailor Senshi's princess forms. While their sons looked like Disney Princes.)
For the record, no other Draco Being ever had that many children. True, they'd evolved to look human-like. Nevertheless, they still retained their fangs, talons, special powers, and few remaining dragon features, to show where they came from. Although at least they behaved cultured.
But the point was Draco Beings bodies, unlike humans, were able to have more children at once. More children then a human woman could safely carry. So, as a result, almost everyone had multiples when they had children. A singleton pregnancy was rare but still happened now and then. Their people ordinarily had about three or four at once.
Everyone considers this a blessing from Silver Queen. Silver Queen's responsibilities and her capabilities gave her authority over both marriage plus motherhood. She was after all the Mother of the Draco Beings as her husband, White King, was the Father of them all.
Either way, it was seen as a blessing for her to have so many happy and healthy children. But it was nevertheless a challenge to raise them all. Luckily they had their families to help them, and they, in turn, helped with raising their nieces and nephews.
But right now, all that matter was Moon Shadow's question if she looked well. To which Toothless assured to her with a long passionate kiss that she was still the fairest in the land.
"So tell me, my love, what concern you today?" Toothless inquired to his wife as they pulled out of their kiss.
"Well, besides the need to maintain the peace?" she asked him as she caressed his face. He nodded. "If you forgot it was a year ago with our extraordinary friends' help, we performed the miracle of reconciling the Royal Holy Family. Yet, at the same time, our children and their cousins unleashed their hidden powers."
"Yes, I recall. If not for Crown Princess Astrid's help during the crisis, I don't think they would've been able to use them as well as they did. Still, I sense your still troubled by this turn of events?"
The beautiful queen nodded and explained the source of her uneasiness. "I'm thankful for Crown Princess Astrid's help in last year's crisis. But I'm still so frightened for our children, Toothless."
"Why? They have no lasting trauma from the events of last year. They recovered fully from it. It seemed to make them stronger and better prepared for any future event. Why are you still so anxious?"
"I still fear that their powers will overwhelm them. You know perfectly well the power we Night Furies hold within our being. For us, we have the hardest time learning to control our special powers. Powers, unlike any other Draco Being! So even if they've reached adolescence, I still fear they won't be able to control their newly unlocked abilities."
The King sighed and bowed his head. He knew from his childhood how hard it was to control their gifts. No two Night Furies had the same blessings. So since their gifts were unforeseeable, their kind did have it harder when they reached maturity. Yes, all Draco Beings inherited individual gifts that were unique to their species. But there was no denying it took much skill and practice to harness these special powers. The results could get messy at times.
To calm his wife down, he reminded her of something important. "I know you, and I still have some reservations about Deadly Siren and her role. Nevertheless, she is dedicated to her duty to be the children of the palace bodyguard. She's a formidable warrior and an excellent teacher."
"I know, Toothless. I know that Deadly Siren is the kingdom's best warrior without a doubt. The way she pushes herself with her training and her demanding perfection from herself, how could she not be?
However, you must remember it wasn't until she regained her faith that she started to see beyond being a warrior and recover her humanity. I will say if again not for Hiccup, Boden, and Una and, of course, White King and Silver Queen's aid that Deadly Siren wouldn't be the way she is today.
She used to be hard as ice, secretive and self-contained and as solitary as an oyster. Now she's a woman full of compassion and empathy. She now fights for the right reasons and not the wrong ones."
"Yes, I know we've all grown and changed in these past two years. The war between humans and Draco Beings has ended. Also, like you pointed out, the Royal Holy Family is whole once more.
So that's why we must work as hard as possible so we can secure the dream of peace and protect our loved ones. So when we are gone, they will be safe and not raised in hate and sin."
"Yes, I know, that's why it's so important for us to keep peace alive."
"Well, let's go check on the children before they go to their lessons with Soulwings. Then inform the council we will be having a meeting at the end of the week. Then we can start our tour of the kingdom," Toothless laid out the game plan for the day.
"Sounds good. Let's get going."
Right now, the Princes and Princesses were having breakfast in the banquet hall with their cousins and friends. Their friends were the children of the honor guard and the kingdom's mystic."
"So what do you think is gonna happen today?" inquired Princess Sari to everyone at the crystal table.
"I don't know, cousin. I know we've lessons with Soulwings, and we are covering more of our spiritual history. But other then that, I don't know what we will learn today in class," her cousin Lady Odette Swan informed her cousin.
"Do you think our parents will approve of us starting to train either with weapons or physical combat? Or let us start proper training for our new powers?" inquired Stormfly's eldest daughter Hellfire curiously.
"Well, if they approve of self-defense lessons, we all know its our bodyguard Deadly Siren who be training us. Though do you think they might let one of the human guards help us out as well?" pondered Lord Black Aries.
"Well, I hope if we have to learn from a human, I would like it to be either Honor Guard Astrid or Heather. She and her brother Dagur are in charge of keeping everyone in shape," Hookfang's son Ash piped up hopefully.
"While this is all a fantastic discussion, shouldn't we be thinking of something more important then our powers or self-defense classes?" Princess Hope spoke up, and everyone looked at her inquiringly.
"What are we forgetting, sister? Please tell us," her brother Prince Lightning asked his sister.
"In case you forgot, my dear family, it's almost Mommy and Daddy's wedding anniversary! It falls on the night of the blue moon. Which you know is even rarer here then where our special friends' Hiccup, Boden, and Una come from."
"How long have they been married?" Ash's older sister Scorchclaw asked her friends.
"They've been married sixteen years. They deserve a grand and lavish party for all they've done and to celebrate their love!" Princess Hope replied.
"Well, I'm sure our parents and the rest of your family is busy planning some celebration. But there no reason we can't figure out something on her. I'm sure my parents would love to help out," Cloudwings said as she played with her hair.
Cloudwings was one of the rare Draco Beings to be a hybrid. Given her father, Cloudjumper was a Stormcutter, and her mother was a Blue Spiritwing. So she had a very unusual look to her. But that didn't make her any less unique then anyone else here.
There were a few more minutes of talking about what they could do for the King and Queen's anniversary when they appeared themselves, which made everyone zip their lips immediately.
"Good morning, children. I hope you slept well, and we welcome you to this blessed day." Queen Moon Shadow greeted all the children while making sure to kiss each of their foreheads.
"Mom, stop!" whined Firethorn as he squirmed to get out of his mother kissing him.
"Now, Firethorn, you can handle a little kiss from your mother. Now we wanted to make sure you all were aware of the schedule for today. You have your standard classroom time with Soulwings, and this afternoon Deadly Siren will be taking you all under her wing.
She and a few of the other Honor Guard will be training you this afternoon. This new setup will go on for the next few months to see if it works out. Remember to show your respect to your elders and do your best."
"Yes, your majesty."
"Good. Now Deadly Siren will be here in ten minutes to escort you all to your lessons. She first has to collect your human classmates. Then she will come to get you. Again best behavior or there will be consequences."
"Understood."
"Good. We are looking forward to having dinner with all of you and your families tonight. Well, have a good day. Come, my love, we have a kingdom to inspect."
"As you wish, my beloved."
The royal couple quickly left and made it to the palace's gates. They couldn't go into the kingdom without protection. It was a stander protocol. It becomes the new stander that one guard be a Draco Being and the other be human. So everyone was treated equally.
They didn't have to wait long before their favorite guards to show up. Stormfly and Astrid. Also, with them was Hookfang and Snotlout. Astrid didn't appear to like Snotlout even if things were better for the humans. But that was just how the rotation was working today.
"Hello, my friends. How are you today?" the king asked kindly.
"We are quite well, King Toothless. Everything is alright. Now shall we go forth and see how the kingdom is doing?" suggested Stormfly.
"Yes, we shall. Let us..."
"Wait! I just realized I forgot something back at the guardhouse! It's imperative. Stormfly, can you come with me to go get it?" Astrid exclaimed.
"I don't know what it is, but okay. Pardon us a few moments," as the Nadder and her human partner quickly jet out of sight.
Once they were out of earshot, Astrid got down to business. "Okay, Stormfly, did you and the rest of the guards get the items we requested for the King and Queen's anniversary party?"
"That's what you want to talk about now? My mother and the rest of the guilds are working overtime as we speak. To get what is needed to make this the best celebration. My mother Beauty is, of course, in charge of the cake."
"Just want to make sure everything is going alright."
"I can assure the guards have passed the message to their family outside the palace, and the whole kingdom is working in secret to prepare. But we must deal with one thing at a time."
"I know, but this important to us. Ever since the humans and Draco Beings made peace, we want to show our appreciation and want to make this anniversary truly one to remember."
"I can assure you we will have it as planned. Now we must do our duties for now. And worry about party planning another time."
"Of course, oh, and this will make them happy," as she pulled out her ax. "Need some excuse to show we had to jet."
"Okay. Let's go."
The rest of the day played out rather well. For now, everyone was getting along and working to mend fences and make a better future. But there were still things troubling the royal couple.
Even after a successful day, they weren't happy. Of course, their second in command, Stardust and adviser Nightrainbow wanted to know what was bothering them."
"It's this fragile peace we have. Seeing how far we've come only reminds us how far we still have to go. And after visiting human's village, we are reminded their still clans outside the kingdom walls." Queen Moon Shadow pointed out.
"Yes, if we wish to achieve true unity and peace, we must renew our bonds with the other clans. Both humans and Draco Being." King Toothless informed them.
"Sir, are you saying you wish to unite the Dragon Kingdom with the Hidden World colony somehow? After all that, we're all the clans who broke away from us 500 years ago went," Stardust inquired of her leader who nodded.
"Yes, we must send them an invitation and help the lost clan rejoin us. We must also find the remaining humans and have them renew ties with their people as well as us."
"Well, finding the lost human clans will be a little harder. You know from Deadly Siren's mouth that evil monster Drago Bludvist didn't just put Draco Beings in his concentration camps.
He divides humans and Draco Beings alike. It might take a while to find all the remaining human tribes and send them invites as well as grant them safe passage to the kingdom." Nightrainbow pointed out sensibly.
"Well, you two, along with Azurewings, get to it then. If we are going to host a peace summit, it should be ready by the end of the month," King Toothless informed them.
"Very well, we shall do our best to fulfill your command."
"Good. We also need to inform Sister Pearl she must contact the Royal Holy Family. Surely with Prince Aaron and Princess Mims aiding us, things will be much more fruitful."
"But we should also find a way to get in touch with Crown Prince Hiccup and his siblings as well as Crown Princess Astrid. We wouldn't be where we are today with all of them." Queen Moon Shadow pointed out the truth.
"We will see that ourselves. Let's go forth and do our duty," the Night Fury king assured everyone.
And with that, a plan was born, and now it was just carrying it out.
