Two-Finned Blunas are a very social breed of dragon, living in packs of dragons called “pods.” Blunas are very curious and playful creatures and several dragons in a pod will often “play” with one other, chasing each other around, tossing seaweed back and forth, and riding ocean swells. They are occasionally seen swimming alongside whales and dolphins.

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.

It was nearly midnight and the only sound was the gentle lapping of the waves against the side of the boat. The moonlight reflected off the dark surface of the water, giving the illusion of two moons shining brightly.

It made no difference to the man in the boat though, his only thoughts being the mysterious creature that lived in the lake. He could feel it in his bones that tonight was the night; he would finally get his picture.

For hours he had been staring into the water, looking out for the monster that had eluded him for so many years. So intense was his concentration that he completely failed to notice the soft breaking of the water behind him, as Eldore poked his head above the surface on the other side of the boat.

Eldore blinked in confusion at the strange man who had his back to him before turning his attention to the pack of half-eaten sandwiches left on the floor. He silently picked them in his great jaws and retreated back into the loch with barely a splash.
