Although they came back half handed, completing the mission was the least of their problems as Rougeoyer and Amaryllis raced back to Dragontail, whisking through the leaves of the trees. They were quiet nonetheless and Amaryllis had some starflowers in her claws. Upon arrival at the meeting spot Dragontail looked surprised, nearly impressed.
"Okay Rouge, how did you cheat this time? Did you steal from someone's garden again?"
"What?!" Rougeoyer exclaimed, "I would never... again. We didn't even finish!"
"Should've known," Dragontail teased as Amaryllis handed her mother the Starflower bunch.
"Remember when we needed someone to interpret dreams?"
Dragontail nodded. "How much did Armir help?"
"Not that much. He just said it was exactly as it seemed."
"And you don't believe him?"
"Not really," Amaryllis admitted.
"We just need to urgently see Largeur. I think our dream is now confirmed to be true," Rougeoyer added, "also, we were being chased by a Caelum, so maybe we should gather everyone back."
The purple Flos jumped up with fear, and partial anger. "You didn't start with the fact that there was a Caelum!?" Quickly, she dug around in a bush for a specific item: a hollowed out, huge branch. She roared into it, creating a sound a lot louder than she could produce on her own, and waited for a response. Not long after, adult Luminbrilles hopped out of the bushes, rushing off into the forest. These were Seekers, specifically Night Seekers as they were mostly Luminbrilles. This was proven so with their headpieces of sharpened branches. It reminded Rougeoyer of the one skull a Flos Seeker brought back. The species was called a deer. Unlike Catchers, Seekers were dragon scouts. They were responsible for checking territory boundaries and finding dragons when there was danger. In Rougeoyer's opinion, Seekers were the most useful dragons.
Rougeoyer shook his head, quickly remembering why they were talking to Dragontail. "So, does that mean we can be dismissed?"
Dragontail considered his words, swishing her purple tail as she thought. She finally came to a conclusion. "Fine. But I expect no complaints next class!"
"Deal!" Rougeoyer smiled, nudging Amaryllis away as he raced off. It wasn't uncommon to see dragons racing through the village, especially when it was Rougeoyer and Amaryllis. Villagers simply waved or chuckled, assuming that they were going to cause mischief. Little did they know that they were almost eaten and held very crucial information.
They found Largeur at his teaching area, despite it not being time for class. The blue Luminbrille was brushing away at a canvas, small torches and the moons keeping his workspace bright. Rougeoyer expected him to be passionately swiping his brush while humming to himself. Instead, he seemed stumped.
"Largeur?" Rougeoyer announced himself and Amaryllis. Largeur turned to them, a happy expression growing on his snout even though his mouth wasn't visible.
"Children! Thank goodness you're here!" he called, using his tail to drag them in closer, in sight of his art. Amaryllis gasped in amazement. Rougeoyer wouldn't admit it, but he was impressed. Upon his leaf canvas was a painted image of Largeur and Scintiller with only their backs visible in the image, looking up to fifteen bright moons through the clearing of the trees above them. It was most likely inspired by the Lunar Gathering of Pacification and Prosperity.

Fantasy"Hello?" he mustered as he kept eye contact. In response, the dragonet garbled something and waddled over to inspect him. After the longest moment of his life, the weight on his chest lifted as Amaryllis crawled over to him and touched snout tips. I...
