It was simply amazing to Runedas how quiet Grilly was. It was quite a long walk, and to add to the matter, this large dracon had not let two words escape his mouth. He stopped every now and then, as small children of various races wanted to see him fly around for a while. Grilly looked so happy, flying around and playing with the kids. It almost seemed like he was a completely different dracon. Runedas figured that it was probably easier to keep people off his back if he was just cold to everyone.

Pretty soon, Runedas found himself falling a little behind Grilly. It was like he was purposely speeding up. The smaller dracon tried to keep up, but he was much faster, almost like he was more in shape. Just as Runedas started to catch up, Grilly rounded a sharp corner and took off flying. He thought of it as some sort of challenge and even knowing that he would fail, Runedas stretched out his wings and started to flap them. He struggled to rise off of the ground and for a small moment, he managed to get himself in mid-air. The problem was, his wings quickly became tired and could not support his weight. There really was not other way to keep him airborne, so crashing onto the hard ground was the only thing Runedas could do.

Wings tired and sore, He slowly stood up and walked the rest of the way to Grilly’s home. As soon as he took the last step, Grilly started to speak.

"Rule number one, no flying until I say you can. Rule number two, no sweets of any kind. Rule number three, you will strengthen you body everyday for no less than five candlemarks a day. Rule number four you will not eat anything that I have not given you permission to eat. If you wish to fly you have to get your body in the perfect shape for you wings to support you for a long period of time. Now it is late we will begin on the next brightening. I expect you here bright and earlier."

“If I did have some kind of question, you certainly did not give me time to say so…” Was the only thought Runedas had as Grilly slammed the door in his face. He turned and looked up into the sky. It actually had gotten quite dark outside. He had no idea as he was concentrating on what would happen next. Walking away from Grilly’s house, Runedas continued to think about where to sleep tonight.

Bright and early the next morning, Runedas was standing at Grilly’s door. Today would be the day that he started to train those wings of his to fly. Anxious and a little nervous, He slowly raised a clawed hand to knock at the dracon’s door. With that, he took a step back and prepared himself for the long day ahead.
