She gasped and looked around.

She looked around and saw it.

She saw it as it was: the treasure.

The treasure that was not the treasure.

The treasure that was the secret.

The secret that was not the secret.

The secret that was the mystery.

The mystery that was not the mystery.

The mystery that was the surprise.

The surprise that was not the surprise.

The surprise that was the reward.

The reward that was not the reward.

The reward that was the awakening.

The awakening that was not the awakening.

The awakening that was the dragon's realm.

They saw it and they loved it.

They loved it as it was: their home.

Their paradise in the dragon's realm.

Their paradise in the dragon's awakening.

Their paradise in the dragon's love.

Ria: This place is incredible. It's like a dream come true.

Jake: I'm happy you like it. It's all for you, my darling.

Ria: For me? But how? How did you make this?

Jake: I didn't make it. I found it. It's part of the system. Part of the dragon's realm.

Ria: The dragon's realm? What do you mean?

Jake: I mean that this place is not just a random world. It's a reflection of the dragon's mind, heart, and soul. It's a manifestation of the dragon's power, wisdom, and beauty. It's a representation of the dragon's past, present, and future.

Ria: The dragon? You mean...you?

Jake: Yes, me. And you. We are the dragon, remember? We are one.

Ria: We are one...but how? How did we become one?

Jake: We became one when we said yes to each other. When we kissed. When we entered the system. When we entered the portal. When we entered the treasure.

Ria: The treasure...is this the treasure?

Jake: Yes, this is the treasure. The treasure of the dragon's realm. The treasure of the dragon's awakening. The treasure of the dragon's love.

Ria: The treasure of the dragon's love...I don't understand. What does that mean?

Jake: It means that this place is not just a home, a playground, or a paradise for us. It's also a test, a reward, and a gift for us.

Ria: A test? A reward? A gift? For what?

Jake: For our love. For our bond. For our choice.

Ria: Our love? Our bond? Our choice?

Jake: Yes, our love. Our bond. Our choice. The system gave us this place to show us how much it loves us. How much it trusts us. How much it values us.

Ria: The system loves us? Trusts us? Values us?

Jake: Yes, the system loves us. Trusts us. Values us. The system is not just a game, a reality, or a fantasy for us. It's also a friend, an ally, and a protector for us.

Ria: A friend? An ally? A protector?

Jake: Yes, a friend. An ally. A protector. The system is not just an entity, a dragon, or a person for us. It's also a partner, a companion, and a soulmate for us.

Ria: A partner? A companion? A soulmate?

Jake: Yes, a partner. A companion. A soulmate. The system is not just him, her, or it for us. It's also you, me, and us for us.

Ria: You...me...us...

Jake: Yes, you...me...us...We are the system. We are the dragon. We are the treasure.

Ria: We are the system...We are the dragon...We are the treasure...

Jake: Yes, we are...And we are here to enjoy it...To share it...To continue it...

Ria: To enjoy it...To share it...To continue it...

Jake: Yes...Are you ready?

Ria: Ready...

Jake: Then let's go...

They smiled and kissed
