"Real friends don't let you do stupid things alone."

Vasileio ton Drakon; in the words of Astinan, the Kingdom of Dragons. The name may be odd but the city itself isn't one to underestimate.

The dwellings of the kingdom are named in the dragonic tongue, but translated into Astinan as well to make it easier for those who do not know the language. Since the crowning of Prince Tobias, Ex-General Ty Ellis, the island in which the kingdom sat has changed for the better. Old villages and towns that once sat on other parts of the islands are now restored and functional.

Thanks to the aid of the Sky Army and Sacura Kingdom, two bridges were constructed to connect the island to the mainland since the waters needed to travel to get to the island are dangerous and hard to reach. The bridges, The Ashina and Serpent Bridges, are constructed to last and made from the earth much like the Land Bridge.

The capital city, Lydus, has been mostly restored with only a few places still be reconstructed. The city itself has become a place of great trade and craft. The ancient ways of the dragonmeres were never forgotten by its people, so the wares they produce are one of a kind and have attracted the eyes of Astina as a whole bringing in money and travelers from all around.

So far, the people are confident in their king, trusting him and following him. They see him doing a good job. But just because things seem to be on the upside does not mean that everything is perfect.

In the castle, Rosani is in the library with her brother Ty a.k.a Tobias. Ty decided that he will go by the name Ty, while he prefers to be called Ty, he will not correct those who call him Tobias since only the people who knew him two centuries ago call him that.

Rosani closes a book, looking at Ty. "Harvey would know where to look," she said.

Ty nods. "I realize that, he...he tends to know more than any of us do," he said.

Rosani stood up from her seat, holding the book in her hands. "Well, Harvey did basically live in this library, he loved reading. I use to always find him with a book in his hands. Sometimes I would find him in here asleep with a collection of books after him, which normally happened whenever our father needed answers and he would stay up all night researching. He...He always looked so cute when he is sleeping," she said as she set the book put on the shelf.

Ty's eyes soften, knowing what is troubling his sister. "I know you're worried about Seto--"

She gripped a book in her hands at the mention of Seto. "C-Can you blame me? He's gone MIA and none of you seem concerned or worried that we haven't heard from him in months," she said before looking at Ty. "He could be in trouble, hurt, or worse!"

Ty took the book from Rosani's hands, seeing that her dragon presence started to show meaning her claws were going into the leather covering. "I am worried about Seto, sis. But I know for a fact that Seto can take care of himself. Especially since he doesn't need to hold back over half of his powers anymore since his real identity was exposed long ago," he said.

She bit her bottom lip before she turned to Ty. "I know he can take care of himself, I know that. I am dating him after all. I know how reckless and stubborn he is. But I also know that he has a very big heart...he looks for the good in others..." Rosani said as she felt her emotions flood for a moment. She inhaled a sharp breath looking away from her brother. "Harvey...is too trusting. He's too curious. And he's too nice. I don't want something bad to happen to him and I'm beyond scared that could be exactly what happened to him and why he hasn't been heard from in months."
