As a child, I remember watching a movie where a character declared, "Inside, I will always be a lone wolf." Even then, it puzzled me... why a wolf? Given the choice, I knew I would far rather be a solitary dragon.
The concept took root in my mind, and the dragon became my secret spirit animal. I was captivated by the way I envisioned their existence: certainly, they possessed the power to reduce the world to ashes if pushed to the edge, yet they chose solitude in distant, quiet caves instead. They were serene, deeply wise, and spent their hours contemplating life beneath a vast moon and a sky full of stars. They were utterly indifferent to humans - to our conflicts, our pettiness, our greed, and our noise. Dragons remained above everything fleeting.
So, meet my inner dragon.
