Helios looked up, meeting the dragons eyes. This dragon was incredible, though he was on the brink of insanity from lack of water and locked away in a human city to be tortured or killed or abused, he still tried to give hope to those around him.
“I came for my son..” he replied with a sad tone, “but we were captured before we could infiltrate the Den, this is all my fault.” He stated, his voice full of guilt as he glanced toward Sunspot and Neoma.
( what if some dragons in the higher up, more modern and wealthy and luxurious parts of the Scorpion Den were really free. Humans Still kept on eye on them but they were free to own apartments or shops or things. Maybe a scientist /alchemist/ rebel dragon or human has been having the same ideas as Tobias, making a drug that can deactivate the other drugs in a dragons system? Maybe there’s a underground movement unbeknownst to most trying to find a way to free most if not all the dragons and set things right? Kinda like the chrysalis? Just ideas lol)
