Perhaps among the most venerated of dragon breeds is the Zyumorph, a breed whose selfless heroism and strong moral compass are nearly unparalleled by other dragons. Zyumorphs have an innate urge to fend off wrongdoing, and as such, are often sought after in times of peril. Although they are independently quite capable fighters, it is said that their true might is not unlocked until all six Zyumorphs are brought together in times of great duress.

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.

Being the fourth zyumorph virtue, this Forest Zyumorph represents Loyalty. Together, with his partner Respect is Earned, they are able to show the Ultimate Form of Respect. Although when they are apart, both dragons make sure to focus on their own virtues as they spread them. Loyalty is Returned has very many devoted followers, even though he is very stringent on who he lets in. Most mistake this firmness as being the result of a high ego, or vainness. But being a living representation of Loyalty, that sense is drilled into his very being, meaning once he has given his loyalty, it is pure, and cannot be backtracked on. In return he expects the exact same devotion (no less) from his followers. Loyalty is Returned is able to sense the purity in a person or dragon's soul, and determine from there whether someone is truthfully loyal, lying, or are deceiving themselves. Since living creatures have many flaws, when he has given his loyalty, and vice versa, it is to be upheld.
