Nathan scratched his head thoughtfully, trying to think of an intelligent way to explain what it was like outside the cave.  When but his thoughts where disrupted when the drake asked another tough question.... only this was a little harder and little more perilous.<br/><br/>â€œWhy are you here?â€<br/><br/>"Thats a good question," he chuckled. "Sometimes there isn't a good reason..." he coughed, not entirely sure if he wanted to disclose that he was a wanted outlaw quite yet. "I am sorry about your parents. Mine left me as well, I don't know where they went or if they died. Or possibly they were trying to protect me. Honestly I don't remember them...." his eyes went distant for second and he blinked and laughed, "So thats the reason.... no good one, I am just here," he announced, moving toward the edge of the cliff. "Its a tough place out there," he sighed, "Many things aren't as they should be... there is war... murder... people killing each other for no reason," he declared somberly. And then he laughed again, "Thats what brought me here, I was running, the sheriff was after me because I was hunting for food," he announced grimly. Nathan then smiled and glanced over toward the young dragon, "But did you know there is a wonderful place... someplace...very, very far away! So far you can't even see it! Just past that horizon!" he declared. "But only the very brave get there," he said at last. Curious as to how young drake would respond to the statement.
