The oddly colored Kalon stops before you, and you feel your breath catch in your throat. Something about her is odd and fantastical, and ever so eerie. She looks down at you with narrowed, amused eyes, something sinister yet charming swirling within her pupils. Eyes were the windows to the soul, of course, but was this creature truly that horrific? You take a step back anyhow and she lowers her head, "I am incredibly sorry to frighten you. I am the dream writer, and I regret to inform you that you should have been asleep hours ago," You could have sworn she cursed under her breath after that last statement, and you watch as she slowly lifts her head. Grinning, she begins to whisper, stepping towards you as her words make you drowsy. You find that even though you try to stay awake, you can't help but fall asleep. The glowing orb resting in the tiara on her forehead does not help. Soon, you are asleep.

The world is spinning, and you find yourself in the whitest room you have ever seen. Everything seems to be in black and white, and you find yourself moving in a soft, dream-like state. Wait, is this not familiar? You've seen this scene dozens of times - no, millions! It has never ended well, and you begin shaking and running down the now all too familiar hallway. You hear them chasing you, faster than what your own paws can handle. Skidding to a stop in a large ballroom, you soon find yourself in the center. Dress swirling around your legs, and the people chasing you suddenly simply swirling around you. Your dream has shifted to a gentle ballroom scene, color slowly returning to the crowd.

As you look closer at the people, they are yet very frightening. They pay no attention to you, but the figures that have long haunted your dreams couldn't help but continue to frighten you. Hearing softer pawsteps, however, you turn to see the Kalon who had gently coaxed you into your nightmare. She steps up carefully to you, offering a paw and leading you in the strange ballroom dance that the others seemed engulfed in, "I didn't want you to see me outside of sleep," she explains, voice soft and wispy.
Eyes that you once believed sinister were now full of life, and they grounded you. You focused on her words, "But it is what it is. You've been having nightmares, I noticed, so I needed to correct them. No one should be having the same nightmares so many times in a row," she swirled again, tail swishing around her. The Kalon seemed to have gained a suit during this ordeal, and was now watching the nightmarish figures dancing around them carefully. Letting go of your paw, she soon took the paw of a nightmare, dancing among the crowd until every creature seemed to poof out of existence. When the ballroom was emptied, the Kalon stood directly in the middle, watching you. Her tiara - which you assumed held the power necessary for her to be rewriting and entering your dreams - changed from a deep purple to a spring lilac. You look around, giving a sigh of relief, "There. That should do it,"
the Kalon speaks, approaching you. They give a deep bow, exclaiming, "I am the one who is in charge of writing your dreams.
While nightmares are a necessary part of life, sadly, I let them go on for far too long. I apologize," you don't know what to except to nod. The Kalon straightens up, turning with a swish of the tail as she began to exit. Her job was done, and her apology given,
and you watch as she leaves you in the center of the very empty ballroom.

Aisling sat at her desk, gazing listlessly at the egg sitting in an incubator on top of it. It had been like this for a couple years, and she had been wondering for a while if it would ever hatch. "But," she reassured herself, "it's a dragon egg, supposedly. Aren't those supposed to take forever to hatch?" She sighed. While this was true, the person who had given it to her said it was very near hatching. But what qualifies as close to hatching for an egg like this? With that question, Aisling reflected on how she got the egg.

"Hey, you!! Yeah, y-you, the orange and blue one," called out a skittish looking kalon in a dark cloak from the corner of a room. Aisling excused themselves from a separate conversation and walked over, a little wary of the strange kalon with the large bag.

"Y-yes?" the replied, unsure of why they were being called over.

"Look, this is gonna sound a little weird, but I'm gonna need you to take this egg," they pleaded, "It's a dragon egg, and it's really important that it's kept safe. Can I trust you with this?"

Aisling sat stunned for a moment. Why did this kalon ask her specifically?? "I-i m-mean, I g-guess?" she stammered out. "M-my life isn't... particularly unsafe."

"Alright, good. Here," the cloaked kalon responded, handing over a somewhat bulky incubator, containing a large egg. Aisling took the incubator, carrying it with them. They scanned the room for a bit - no one had seemed to notice that they had gone missing. When they turned back to the cloaked kalon to give them a farewell, the kalon seemed to have simply disappeared.

"That's... odd," she muttered to herself. She then decided to tell her group of friends that she had things to do at home, before departing and heading home.

Aisling had almost made it all the way home, but then tripped and fell, and

*CRACK*

Aisling was driven out of recollection by a crack coming from the direction of the incubator. She looked up and found that the egg had, in fact, started cracking. She quickly stood up and removed the cover from the incubator, giving the creature inside the egg room to hatch. Indeed, a couple minutes after, a small golden lizard-like creature with tiny wings crawled out.

"It's... kind of adorable," she muttered, looking at the small dragon, which was flaring its wings for the first time. "Hey there, little friend," she said to the small dragon, which simply chirped at her in response. "You're gonna need a name, li'l guy," she said, trying to think of a name for him. "Hmm... I'll name you," she paused for a second, "Artemis. Seems like a suitably dragon-esque name," she decided. The golden dragon chirped happily in response, causing Aisling to chuckle a little. "You like it, huh?" They muttered to themselves, "Man, that is not what I expected baby dragons to sound like."

Aisling was caught by surprise by their own yawn, and looked at the clock. "Wow, it is late," she muttered. "Sorry Artemis, I gotta go to sleep," she said, curling up in her bed in the corner of her dormroom-sized apartment. The dragon flitted over to her and curled up on her pillow, laying next to her head. She squealed a little inside - "oh my stars, it's like a small cat!" - but decided it would be best to wake up early in the morning tomorrow.
