"Well, this was disappointing…" Rain said when the second day in the library ended. "I am starting to think that we won't find what we need here."
"You still have the coral that you took, right?" Seadir asked. "Why don't you use that?"
"I am looking for a more definitive solution to our problem," Rain said while rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "I guess only dragons would have the knowledge that I am looking for, but they don't even try to talk with me."
Dragons considered themselves to be at the pinnacle of the natural order, and this perception was grounded in several obvious factors. Their longevity and immense power set them apart from other species, and as a result, they often viewed themselves as superior beings. This self-assuredness was bolstered by their age-old traditions, history and sense of pride.
