Hey guys. Imgur is causing my computer to act up, and it's the image hosting site I use the most. It's probably related to my Internet problem that randomly popped up. So I'm holding off of updating Draconic Inferno for today, or at least my family switches over to a new Internet company. But you can still post suggestions and I'll respond with text!

(Okay, Ingur is acting right again.) You never had many friends, and the ones you do have are away at other towns and haven't talked to in a while. However, there were the two young dragonlings you saw playing across the street, Doa (the male green-yellow one) and Toa (the female dark orange one). You sometimes head over and play with them. So you simply slither (as they weren't very far away) to them. Their mother watches you as you speak to them. Dragonlings: Trogdor! Trogdor: Hey little guys, what's up? Doa: Hey! I'm not little! Trogdor: Whoops. Slip of the tongue. Trogdor: I see your horns are growing in, Doa. Doa: Yeah, I'm going to be a grown-up like you! And Toa will still be smaller than me! Toa: But I'm as big as you! Doa: Barely. Mother: Now, now. Calm down, darlings. You spend a little time playing with Doa and Toa, but soon you must leave, as it's almost time for the ceremony. You live in the same town as the king's castle, which saves time. But you almost forget to let your father know you're leaving! But that will waste a little extra time, and your father will likely be there to watch said ceremony. But on the other hand, you don't want to be rude. What will you do?

The king is more important that your father, after all.

> Go directly to ceremony. You decide to go ahead and go. You feel bad about not telling Dad ahead of time, but he'll likely be there anyways, and you can simply say you forgot to tell him. ====> You arrive at the king's castle. All dragons of all colors and types are there, from other commoner-blooded quetzalcotals to their flightless counterparts basilisks, drakes and the similar-but-winged wyverns, and the four-legged dragon both winged and wingless. Dang it, looking at other quetzalcoatls and basilisks makes you feel even more of a runt, and you're already pretty small for your species.

> Be brave. You try to be brave. You fail miserably, and start freaking out as you start having trouble breathing. Curse your anxiety issues! > Go over ceremony. You try to recall exactly what happens during the ceremony. Let's see.... It all starts when all the about-to-be-adults line up. It's never completely straight, but it is organized to a degree. Then the ruling monarch gives his or her "blessing" to each dragon, marking their entry into adulthood. Though some swear it's completely useless light magic, so more than likely it's more symbolic than anything. After everything is said and done, you go to feast, and there you are determined whether you go training in the royal army, or at the adventurers' guild. Both last three months, after of which you can do whatever you want. That seems to help, and the sudden difficulty with breathing has stopped too. You then hear someone calling out. : Hey you! Trogdor: Huh? : Hey! I'm talking to you, Fourwings!

Sorry I didn't update yesterday. I was busy all day yesterday and by the time I could get on my desktop, I was too tired to do anything. Do expect an update later today, though!
I noticed that one of Forest's commands referenced Happy Feet, which I haven't seen in a long time and the only thing I remember about it was that it involved penguins. If there was any similarities between the movie and this forum adventure, then it is a complete coincidence, as I'm operating on my own ideas and concepts. I'm doing my best not to copy anything.
Though I will make a joke panel (which will not be canon to Draconic Inferno) based on Forest's first command, so do expect that as well.

JOKE PANEL: > "Have you ever seen the movie Happy Feet? Because that's probably me. With something other than tap dancing." Who says there wasn't tap dancing in this adventure? (OoC: This is what I do for my first GIF. Well, at least it's funny.) ACTUAL UPDATE > "Who are you calling freak, Flightless?" : Flightless....? : That the best you got? Wow. : At least it's normal for a basilisk to be flightless. Oh by the way, so you come out as not so dumb, the name is "Ghikia". Ghikia: Say it after me. Ghiiiiiiikiiiiiiiaaaa. Trogdor: I am not a dragonling. ===> Ghikia: Oh really? Ghikia: Besides, if you know the facts. Ghikia: Queztalcoatls ain't got four wings, Fourwings.

> "This one does, numbnubs. Deal with it." Unfortunately, before you could use this clever comeback, the shrine bells ring. Ghikia: Welp, I'm off to the line. See you later, freak. You guess all you can do is get in line for now. Hopefully you won't have to deal with Ghikia again, or at least for a while. You have been called out on your strange extra pair of wings before, but it never got that bad. Your COURAGE remains the same.

====> Looks like the ceremony is starting, so you head into line. King Kiron and his older brother and the one in charge of the royal army, Dego, had came out. Eventually, it's your turn to receive the king's blessing. Out of the corner of your eye, you see your father. (Author's Notice: I noticed from the not-sprited pictures of Kiron that because I was busy with Imgur, I overlooked an error in his left (your right) horn. I don't want to reupload so please refer to his sprite for reference regarding the shape of his horns.)Kiron: Greetings, young one. Kiron: I shall bestow you with my- Kiron: ..... Trogdor: Your Majesty? Trogdor: Is something wrong. Kiron: My apologies. Kiron: I simply....zoned out for a moment. Kiron: Take my blessing and go into the castle's kitchen. You received the king's blessing! Because it is symbolic, it's completely useless, but apparently that means you're an adult now!

EDIT:Derp, typed 'bread' instead of 'beard' (and yet, funnily enough, crumbs were something along what I was thinking...)

> Be concerned about how the king looked at you. Indeed, the king looked at you kind of funny. Was it something you did? Or something on your snout? For a moment, you're afraid you somehow messed up, but you put your mind off of it. > Go to kitchen. You are now in the castle's kitchen, and you see a few of the dragons who we're behind you following the same path.. Your father's still outside, since the guests aren't allowed in until all of the will-be-adults are given the blessing and are officially adults. What will you do?

Hey guys! I haven't posted in anything in the past few days because I was taking a bit of a breather. Fret not, though, because I'll make a "===>" update tomorrow! (Assuming nobody posts a command before that time.)

> Try to bring food out to celebrate with your father. The thing is....they won't be serving food for a while. And you doubt you could sneak any out anyways. You weren't exactly the stealthy type. > Talk to wyvern. You approach the pink wyvern. Trogdor: Uh....hey. : Hiiiiiiii! : What's your name? Trogdor: Name's Trogdor. What's yours? : I'm Cheril! Cheril: You're the first dragon I met as a grown-up! Cheril: There's so many firsts today! Trogdor: Okay, okay, slow down. Trogdor: Don't get too excited. Trogdor: (Wow, she's hyper.) Trogdor: (But Chreil's kind of cute, too...) It seems you can carry on this conversation. What would you like to ask? Or do you wish to speak to someone else?
