Guardian Dragons have large shields on the end of their tails. Although the shields appear to be heavy, they are light, yet nearly unbreakable. Guardian Dragons use their tail-shields, as well as their wings, to deflect attacks and protect others. Often, they will guard the eggs and hatchlings of a nest while others are away. They are generally peaceful, and will not retaliate unless necessary. They have no need to forage or hunt, as they are fed by those they protect.

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.

Aeneas turned up within the Territory of Mother Aime and would not leave despite persecution from Akon and aggressive response from Lucius and the good Baron Voltson. He continues to return and give no true name and only communicated once "I am but poor Aeneas cast to wander. Throw me not from Learning shores of Latina. Governed by them, as far as on his rounds. The Sun looks down on Ocean, East or West." (The Aeneid) He'd not made effort to communicate since aside from wordless song.

Her first of brood, Lucryste and Nyssa were in attendance and heard this, since took to calling him Aeneas the Dreamer for his intentions became clear within a matter of weeks. He wished to be Mate of Mother Aime. While the younglings and some of the older enjoy the appearances of Aeneas the Dreamer, Mother Aime herself simply watches and waits. Anger and fear turned to amusement and interest though it does not reflect to him much.

She seeks to understand his name and from where he'd come.
