Kendall's POV
Walking through the ranges, the aim of our journey was the large castle that stood right below the peak of the volcanic mountain. 'Isn't that too close to the crater?' I thought. I wasn't going to risk asking the soldier one more question. He seemed to think that everything before me was common knowledge. How was I supposed to know all this when the artras were confined to a castle that was the epitome of comfort?
I continued walking behind the man, ignoring the looks I was getting from other dragons. Many of them walked about the mountain blended cities in their human forms. At first, I hadn't noticed anything and kept wondering where the houses were, but the deeper I got into the mountains, the more I realised that I was staring at the houses the entire time. Except for the palace in the distance and the red buildings that surrounded it, most of the dragons lived in caves that had been dug into the sides of the mountain.
