Pink Dragons are primarily herbivores and only eat meat during the mating season, when mates will exchange kills. When it is not breeding season, pink dragons spend most of their time incubating eggs and caring for their clan’s young. Due to their feminine color, it was traditionally thought that pink dragons were a strictly female breed, but this is not true.

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.

Flip Tuck is an adventurous romantic who is always up for a challenge. Naturally, he found Andy Whereyougo in his company quite often, as she had a passion for the sea and also dreamed of far away places. As they got to know one another better, Andy Whereyougo confided in Flip Tuck telling him about how Dark Grizzle used her storm magic to keep her confined within Wayside Haven. Andy Whereyougo had recently confronted Dark Grizzle about it, and was told by the Empress that Andy Whereyougo had to stay and do her part for the nest. Concerned for the freedom of his good friend, Flip Tuck devised a plan for the two of them to escape together. The first step involved finding Dark Grizzle's close associates, so they could know who to trust. Next, they would have to devise a distraction, such as having an egg. Finally, when everyone trusted that they would not leave because of their love for the unborn hatchling, they would escape over the sea. The problem of course, would be follow-through.
