Canopy Dragons love to soar above the tropical jungles and other densely forested areas. Their billowing, layered wings create generous lift that allows them to ascend effortlessly over the warm jungle. While their unique wings do not make them the fastest flyers, they are champion gliders. To further this end, dexterity, maneuverability, and grace are all judged by the females when selecting their mates from the males that can accurately complete the exhausting and elaborate courtship dance between the close growing branches of the upper canopy.

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.

Leololo has an odd name, but he doesn't let it get in the way of his life, and his efforts to gain the heart of Canopella, the other Canopy Dragon in their pack. He has tried everything; flowers, leaves, a candlelit dinner of roasted pheasant. But Leololo's problem is that Canopella belongs to everyone, and her heart is so open and happy that she wouldn't be able to love him but cut off everyone else, as jealous Leololo secretly wishes.
