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.

This young seasonal dragon has been searching since birth for the land of his namesake. Examining his cavemate, Sparqie's various maps, he has found "North America", "South America" and every now and then, "Central America". However, there's no "West America".

With some help from the other dragons, West America has developed a theory that there was indeed a West American continent at one time. However hundreds of years ago, it must have broken away from the other Americas and fallen off the edge of the earth.

His dragonkeeper just does not have the heart to tell this gullible dragon the truth.
