The child sleeps while the she-dragon keeps watch, radiating the kind of quiet authority one only has when fully capable of setting half the kingdom on fire if disturbed. The silence isn’t tragic—it’s the practical, protective kind a large creature enforces when she decides a nap is sacred. Silence belongs in cradles, not in graves… and this she-dragon intends to keep it that way.
