Why don’t you help me test my powers some day? I can’t use them to kill you and if I hurt you at all I can easily heal any accidental damage.” </span>His frown deepened.<span style="color: #b3b300"> “What do you mean it’s not an accomplishment? We live a world where we can be killed simply looking at someone wrong, or being in the wrong place at the wrong time. And that’s as a mortal. You did that as a child and a dragon. That is absolutely an accomplishment and you should be proud.”</span>He listened to intently and nodded.<span style="color: #b3b300"> “I think I understand now. Do you mind if I come visit you every day? Just to hear about your day and share a drink? I’ll bring a keg of my favorite stuff and maybe share some stories of my own if you’re interested. I think you owe it to your mother to make her proud, don’t you? We’ll find something you can do and enjoy.”</span><div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
