The Black Dragon’s Avatar scoffed, Ophelia chuckled, and even Lotus giggled.
"You definitely need a better story for him than that. Not even I bought it." Lotus stage whispered.
"I’m working on it. But if I tell him that you really just wanted a playmate to go splash in the lake with, I don’t know how the Black Dragon will take it."
The Avatar smiled. That sounded much more likely for this tiny human and her Divine Lighting Dragon companion.
"I will remain here for some time to monitor the situation. The God tells me that the Karl also has an open space, and there is a particularly wayward child of our lineage that remains troublesome."
"Now that’s trust," Ophelia joked.
But the three Supremes were all trying to figure out this Black Avatar. He felt immensely powerful, and completely harmless at the same time. It was clear that his power level was being masked, but they couldn’t tell if he posed a real threat to the people of the New Home.
"If you’re busy, I can just ask one of the others from my Guild to come and do the job." Karl offered.
"There are no black dragon avatars in the Darklight Host at the moment. We have considered elevating one, but she is not yet ready."
"How about another World Dragon Avatar? Surely, there is one? Or a Green Avatar?"
The black dragon gave him a hard glare, silently asking him how he came to the conclusion that either of those would be acceptable substitutes.
"Right, you have a point. The World Dragon probably wouldn’t stop me, and a Green Dragon avatar would end up spending all day playing with the bunnies."
The black dragon didn’t deny it.
"The World Dragon, like his Ancient Kin, believes that all things are valid pets, as long as they agree to be kept. The Green Dragon’s followers don’t mind being kept, as long as they’re treated gently."
Ophelia snickered, and Lotus simply shrugged at her much larger partner.
"It seems that our new friend has much wisdom about the way of the Green Dragon. Tell me, are there a lot of Green Priestesses where you come from? My dragon is curious."
"Your dragon? Oh, your Divine Partner, the Divine Green Dragon that you are mentally linked with. Yes, I can see how she would be curious. There are indeed many Green Dragons on my world. Hundreds of thousands of them, in fact.
The entire planet is nothing but dragons from the Divine Lineages. No servants, no other sentient species. Only dragons and food."
"How does that work? Doesn’t it get boring with just dragons? And not even all the kinds of dragons."
The Avatar sighed, realizing that he had walked right into the never-ending questions of a curious Green Priestess.
"Later, I will answer your questions later. First, I must commune with my God about the bond you have formed."
"If it helps, you can tell him that she’s absolutely adorable, and I was there when she hatched."
"I will be sure to relay your sentiment."
"Great, while you do that, we’re all going for ice cream. You might as well follow along so you don’t lose us."
