The Dragon's Riches

Summary:

For the past few weeks, the young dragon had started getting acquainted with the land in this foreign region, away from the comfort of his childhood home back in Amertia.

Though it’s become somewhat more of a tradition than an obligation, Jimin had still been excited when it had been time to leave and finally go do his own Riches Pursuit. Naturally possessive creatures, dragons leave their home once they reach a certain age and head out to travel the world, searching for riches to bring back with them. According to dragon lore, it’s the basis for what makes a good home and a good family.

And so Jimin had gone, taking only a couple of his belongings, leaving his family and younger brother behind, knowing he’d be able see them again at least for the annual Dragon Kin Festival in a couple month’s time. He trusted in what fate had in store for him.

He'd never expected to be roped in all sorts of escapades and help out others along the way.

Chapter Text

 

The sun was setting below the horizon in a striking gradient from crimson to a murky blue by the time Jimin had finally found a place to stay. The cave he had found was of a decent size and the mouth was large enough to accommodate his physique. It was also, by the smell of it, not occupied by another large creature, except for some small bats who had made their home deeper in.

 

With his gleaming yellow irises, he eyed the bats warily as they chirped and flew around the ceiling. I don’t think they’ll bother me too much, he thought, exhausted, as he slowly made his way into the dark hollow to set down his small bag of belongings and immense body. His eyelids were already drooping, and he let out a deep heated exhale, his wings fluttering behind him. After he made sure that his tail was securely wrapped around himself, he finally let his eyes shut.

 

He could worry about food later. For now, he needed to rest.

 

Some hours later, dawn leisurely made its way up above the terrain to announce the start of the fourteenth day of the tenth month.

 

Amid this large forest was a slumbering silver dragon, unsuspecting of his future exploits.
