The Dragon Sage replied to Keiso's question, "You think that the people of the Land of Fire or the Land of Wind wouldn't try to use the dragons as weapons? You think the dragons, with their large size and their abilities to breath fire and fly high in the sky, won't be misused and misunderstood by shinobi who know nothing of how to care for dragons properly? No, the dragons stay here because they know the humans on other continents and countries would see them as a source of power and not living creatures. Plus, this country is the only place that their sacred flower of healing, the Dragon Bloom, can grow." The Dragon Sage looked at everyone and laughed, "This is going to be fun." Draco looked around and saw an egg that was out of place among the warmer colors, it was a dark blue with specks of white across the surface and it seemed to have an otherworldly glow. Draco said, "What kind of dragon will hatch out of that egg?" The Dragon Sage said, "You have a keen eye. That is a Celestial Dragon egg, they only hatch at the touch of the person destined to be their rider. Draco, that might be you but you must earn the respect of Avonil before he will allow you to touch the egg. He was put in charge by the King of Dragons to care for the egg until someone worthy appeared to care for the hatchling within." Draco said, "Wait, what? I come here to restore my lost time and now I have to earn the respect of a dragon to become a dragon rider? What is going on?" The Dragon Sage sighed and said, "Dragon riders are rare nowadays because no one believes dragons are real, but you have to do it because only a dragon rider can tame the Demon King." Draco said, "Okay. This is really strange." The Dragon Sage replied, "It's not really all that strange since our people have worshiped dragons since the dawn of time." Draco said, "Okay, is anyone else following this? Because I got lost after she said I had to become a dragon rider." Draco was confused as to what needed to be done. The Dragon Sage grabbed Draco's wolf ears and said, "I would've thought the Princess of Celestians would be smart enough to keep up with an old woman." Draco said, "The Princess of WHAT?!" Draco looked even more shocked, she turned to her father and said, "Is she serious? A princess? Me?! I'm too vulgar and crude to be a princess!" The Dragon Sage turned to Kakashi and said, "What have you been teaching your daughter? Didn't you tell her that she was a princess?" The Dragon Sage waited for Kakashi's excuse for not telling Draco she was a princess. Shikamaru said, "I'm going to have to agree with Draco on this, I can't see her playing the part of the pretty princess in a castle." The Dragon Sage turned to Shikamaru and said, "Well she is a princess so you best get used to the thought of that, sonny." She then hit Shikamaru over the head with her wooden staff as a punishment for saying that. Shikamaru said, "Ow!"
