Seasonal Dragons take on the characteristics of the season during which they are born. Thus, eggs that are laid in spring match the pink flowers and green buds of spring, and those that are laid in the summer grow to depict the bright green of the forest trees and the yellow of the sun. Eggs laid in autumn display the bright colors of leaves falling from trees, and those that are laid during winter take on the appearance of the icy snow.

Dragons are highly-intelligent reptilian creatures that—from a human perspective, at least—appear to live forever. Many different varieties of dragon exist, each with their own unique qualities, habitats, and behavior. Adolescence in dragons is usually marked by the growth of a hatchling’s wings, although not all breeds of dragons grow wings and some breeds have other traits that indicate the beginning of maturation. In Galsreim, dragons and humans coexist peacefully.

The dying of trees most would greet with a frown

As their leaves turn red and yellow and brown

But Jinjekkai loves the fall even more than the spring

The falling leaves to the ground a blanket they bring

Paving the way for the snow from the skies

He stirs them up in a whirl as he flies

He gathers them in piles and gigantic heaps

Then through the air and into them he leaps

Playing with the squirrels as they gather and store

Singing with the birds as they sing while they soar

Planting the fallen fruits and seeds in the ground

As harvesting and gathering takes place all around

They days grow short the nights last longer

The dawn grows weaker, the sunset stronger

The animals all around began to sleep under

The early storms come the sky fills with thunder

Jinjekkai paints the sky with his colorful flights

Rehearsing with the coming Northern Lights

But soon winter shall descend

And bring Jinjekkai's joy to end

And so he'll burrow and he'll sleep

The memories of the fall to keep
