Lunar Heralds are deeply attuned to the two moons of Valkemare, Aurax and Cirion. Strictly nocturnal, they draw energy from moonlight and will only hunt when the moons have waned. When breeding, the amount of moonlight the parents receive from each moon will determine the color of the egg produced. When a Lunar Herald is struck by direct moonlight, an illusion of multiple wings may appear. Witnessing a Lunar Herald’s illusory wings is commonly believed to be a sign of good fortune.

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.

Every hatchling in Lizzy's cave knows the legendary adventures of the Lagmonster and Datamonster survivors, but every era has its heroes and this lady is definitely one of them. She was destined to a fellow breeder as a gift, but her departure was delayed because the giftee had no room in the cave—and that delay saved many lives.

One day Lizzy, coming back from the market, spotted a familiar-looking hatchling in a place it wasn't supposed to reach on its own. She immediately had a bad feeling about that and ran back to the cave, greeted by a bunch of eggs and baby dragons scattered everywhere: some prankster had distracted the guardians, entered the cave and messed up the nest, leaving the eggs to get sick from the cold or be crushed by distracted adults. Luckily no dragons were harmed; the Lunar hatchling came back home and Lizzy decided to keep it and find a cool name for the new hero (while cursing profusely the prankster's lineage and progeny up to generation 12).
