Ferae, a young silver-haired elf with eyes that held quiet sadness of ancient forests, had always felt like an outcast within her human-filled village. She yearned the connection of other elves and wanted answers about the powers that stirred within her. 

One day, the whispers of the wind called to her and she decided she needed to answer. She left behind the familiar, but stifling confines of the humans to find out where she belonged.

Her journey ahead seemed frightening, but Ferae was willing to sacrifice much for her happiness. 

In the quiet moments of her solitary journey, she would close her eyes and dream of finding her elf tribe, but it was a fantasy she knew might never come true. The path she now trod was one of her own choosing.

The world outside her former haven was vast and unpredictable. One sunny afternoon, while following a deer path through a forgotten thicket, Ferae stumbled upon something that would change the course of her solitude forever. There, through curled, ancient roots, was a creature of myth. She could not believe her eyes. Its darkness was a rarity and was never seen in millions of years by no human nor elf. 

It was a black dragon. Its scales shimmered like polished obsidian, and its eyes, though fierce, held a youthful curiosity. Ferae, despite being slightly afraid, felt a strange pull. This was no ancient, fearsome beast, but a young, perhaps equally lost, soul.

Ferae and Babylon (she decided to call him) began a new journey together. Their early days were hesitant, filled with silent observation and cautious trust. Yet, a bond began to form. They learned to share the beauty of the wild together, and soon, it became common to see this unlikely pair eating together and both happy in this new found companionship. 

Their journey then led them to a place of breathtaking beauty. It was near a hidden waterfall where it was reveled to Ferae the true, draconic power of Babylon. Through the power of the dark rocks and the water drumming against them, Babylon revealed his true nature. He was sent to kill Ferae, but had no intentions in killing her. Elves were seen as trophies for dragons and Babylon's tribe demanded him to find Ferae and to kill her as an initiation to be accepted in the world of dragons.

Babylon told Ferae that he had no intentions in harming her because he found friendship and belonging in a place he never that possible.
