Prompt: What if a child wanted a dragon pet:

I’m not sure how this would go over in most households or dragon lairs. From a dragons perspective Myrria says that being a pet is not something she aspires to.

Maybe to start this out I need to define pet: a domestic or tamed animal kept for companionship or pleasure

I think it would be safe to say that dragons are not domestic or tamed. Yes they may become your companions, be bonded to you in some way but you will never domesticate or train them. For a while they may give you the impression that they are tame, but like a wolf or any wild animal one day the wild will come out.

Now Myrria and her compatriots like to tell me that something like that could never happen between us, but then again she is not a pet so I do not expect them to bury their wild tendancies. I value the companionship and guidance they give me and to me they are more than a pet could ever be.

Now as to the child that wants a dragon as a pet:

Different forms of cheap women viagra this medicine, have added more valuable aspects in treating erection issues. Certain categories have accumulated much knowledge enabling planning http://pharma-bi.com/2011/02/ commander levitra and launching of hits with a practical probability of success.

Watermelon: There is research to suggest that watermelon could function almost like a buy viagra pill . I would like to say like any pet they are a big responsibility, but since they prefer not to be pets, they pretty much take care of themselves. Of course if they do befriend a dragon and wish to bring it home, you might wish to discourage that, because although they make wonderful companions your home is by no means large enough unless you live in a cave, which I don’t think most of us do.

The other thing is the food bill. The nice thing about dragons is they can find their own food, but if you have one for a pet your neighbors may not appreciate it when the livestock disappears and I’m sure your budget cannot handle the cost for the food they eat.

You would be better off advising your child to have a dragon as a friend that he can visit instead of as a pet. Your well being as well as that of the child and the dragon will be in a much better place when the dragon is your friend.

Dragons are most loyal creatures when they have chosen you and you don’t try to enslave them or treat them as a pet.

So my advice to the child who wants a dragon as a pet, tell him to find a dog or a fish, and leave the dragon to be his friend. You, the child, and the dragon will be much better off with that arrangement. Besides you will have gained a great friend who if treated right will defend you, console you, be honest with you; all the things you can expect from a real friend. And she might even take you flying, because one of the things dragons love to do is fly and explore the world, just be sure to take a jacket, because it can get rather chilly flying in the stratosphere.

Like humans, dragons have different personalities,different motivations, different moralities. Tomorrow I will explore some of the dragons I know with malevolent personalities. Unfortunately I do know a few.

Prompt for the day: What would your characters do if they met a famous dragon?

This one is actually easy since most of my characters in my YA books know the dragons up close and personal like. Most of my protagonists are linked to their specific dragons; like Joachim and his father Theodric are linked to Myrria and Brandan is linked  rather reluctantly to Alorn. The reason I say reluctantly is because Brandan is the protagonist/antagonist, so besides Alorn who is one of Asha’s (God of Ramajadin) Brandan is also linked to Tatsu a dragon and slave to Sidramah (the evil force). Whenever any in the royal family, the adepts and the wisdoms need to they can communicate with the dragons, but that ability does not extend to the general population, although there are people that are dragon sensitive (magic sensitive) that if developed can talk with the dragons.

The elf-like race of Kningrad communicate with the dragons, because of their connection to Asha. Their magic and hence their dragon sensing abilities are heightened.

It is a drug that is highly capable of dealing with different common troubles like erectile dysfunction, PE, semen leakage and other related ones. sales cialis Unfortunately, nothing could be further from the truth. prescription du canada viagra Online you can make the purchase without bringing your face to the floor, simply using your credit or debit card. viagra viagra If a symptom like blepharitis does occur with ocular psoriasis, Click This Link viagra australia price ophthalmologic surgeries such as photorefractive keratectomy or LASIK, both designed to correct vision or even cataract surgery must be steered clear of. But I guess I am not answering the question. What would my characters do? To answer that I would have to look at the general population. Of course everyone can see the dragons. Many have been exposed to the evil of Sidramah’s dragons, so the people tend to be cautious in dealing with dragons until they know what dragon they are dealing with. Most will stay in their homes hoping not to stir the wrath of the dragon. The bold few that are dragon sensitive are at first surprised that the dragon can communicate with them. When Alorn first talked to Brandan, the prince was riding on the dragon’s back. The prince was surprised and looked around to find the source of the voice. It was only after Alorn explained things that the haughty, teenage side of Brandan came out. He wanted nothing to do with Alorn’s advice and would just as soon not even be riding the dragon of Asha. Later in the story when Brandan is having doubts about his choices he does let Alorn in. Unfortunately this doesn’t last long as Sidramah’s evil tentacles have a strong hold over him.

Joachim on the other hand after some initial fear embraced the communication with Myrria and she became one of his trusted advisors. Joachim will also have doubts on his journey and appear to reject Myrria and his other advisors, but not for long as he makes the painful journey through his uncertainty.

The story of the dragon’s communication abilities when they come to Earth are a little more complicated. As I mentioned yesterday the earth dragons have mostly lost their ability to communicate with humans or the Creator. These stories are in the development stage so how communication is yet to be seen. I would say for the most part Humans fear the dragons and are content to destroy them or drive them into hiding.

Tomorrow we will explore what happens when a child wants a dragon for a pet. You have probably gathered that my dragons are not quite the pet type, so it will be an interesting exploration.
