The early morning sun cast a golden glow over the Dragon Kingdom as James and his companions prepared to leave. After all they'd endured to rid the world of Zarathros and his dark minions, this day felt like a bittersweet triumph. The weight of victory mixed with the quiet sadness of departure, as the citizens of the Dragon Kingdom gathered to bid farewell to their new allies.
James stood near the castle's grand entrance, his armor polished and gleaming, a symbol of the hero he had become to these people. His wives, Sasha, Yori, Emilia, and Pippy, stood at his side, their eyes softened with a mix of pride and affection. Cherry, Lynara, and the other dragonkin women gathered around him, each dressed in ceremonial attire befitting their station. A hush fell over the crowd, allowing a respectful stillness to settle as they waited for James to speak.
