Bluebell the dragon
Lanayru helps Nerin overcome her fears by taking her on a dragon ride.
(Lanayru is ~950 years old)
Word count: 1978
In the domain of the Water Goddess, Nerin follows an ecstatic Lanayru down the path. Her friend has been eager to show her something, without explaining what it really is, and so Nerin’s thoughts swim with possibilities. It could be a newly created Dweller, waiting to meet their mother’s friend. Or maybe another fairy, or dozens of new fairies. Perhaps, nothing has been created at all, and rather it’s a splendid view of the water worth sharing. Lanayru is always full of mysteries.
Far away from the palace where Lanayru and the Dwellers reside, the two approach a large open area, almost like a field in the mortal world, surrounded by white pearly fencing and tall intricate pillars. A large creature lies curled up on the ground. Almost like…
Her dragon.
Lanayru uses her magic symbol to unlock the gate, leading Nerin through the entrance.
“Well, I am delighted to tell you that Bluebell is fully grown now!” The Water Goddess claps her hands in excitement. “Look at her!”
The Swan Goddess moves her gaze to the large, magnificent dragon, much bigger than she remembers, its baby blue scales glimmering in the light. White spikes stick out from its otherwise smooth back, long hair in a mix of blues and whites frame its majestic face, and striking blue eyes gaze up at the two Goddesses.
“Wow, I…” Nerin struggles to find words. “It’s so…beautiful.”
Her heart races in her chest, though, as the dragon also looks…intimidating. As a baby, Bluebell was much less scary to her.
Grinning happily, Lanayru walks up to rub the dragon’s snout. “She sure changed a lot, huh? Haven’t you, girl?”
Bluebell snorts in reply, causing Nerin to raise an eyebrow. Can it understand what we’re saying? The way Lanayru is acting toward it reminds her of the way mortals play with their pets, easing her fears slightly.
“Come on, little one, pet her,” the Water Goddess continues. “She’s super gentle, don’t worry, I promise.”
“Oh-okay.” Nerin cautiously steps forward to meet up with her friend. She is not used to dragons, not sure if this one is in fact a wild beast who could lash out at any second.
But Lanayru would never lie to her. She knows Lanayru.
You’re gonna be okay.
Slowly and tentatively, she reaches an arm forward and rests her hand on Bluebell’s snout. The bumpy texture of the scales takes her by surprise, and the dragon snorts again.
“There you go! That’s it,” Lanayru encourages her. “See? You’re doing great.”
“Really? Are you sure?” Nerin moves her hand up to the dragon’s long and flowy hair. “Is…is this okay?”
“Yeah, go for it. She loves head scratches.”
Head scratches?
Puzzled by Lanayru’s comment, she places a gentle hand on its hair, feeling the silky and incredibly soft strands run through her fingers. Her long nails make her hesitant to scratch, wondering if it would hurt the dragon, so instead she rubs her fingers in little circles atop its head. Bluebell’s eyes close, followed by what sounds like a happy sigh.
“Yeah, doesn’t that feel good?” Lanayru coos to Bluebell, tapping a finger on its nose. “You’re a lucky girl today, huh? Yes you are!”
Nerin slowly lifts her hand away, turning back to her friend. “Well…she’s a sweetheart, RuRu, thanks for showing me.”
“I told you, right? I promise you there’s nothing to be afraid of.”
Instead of heading away toward the palace, though, Lanayru walks around the dragon’s head and beside its scaly body. Wait- what is she doing?? Putting her hands near one of the spikes, she hoists herself up on its back, legs stretched out on each side of the spike and arms wrapped around it.
Is she gonna-
“Come on, let’s go for a ride!”
Oh.
Oh shit.
Nerin freezes in place, her hands becoming clammy as she bites her lip. “I-I, uh…I’ll pass on that one, thanks.” She laughs nervously. “If you- if you don’t mind, I-“
“Little one, pleeease? I promise you’ll be fine, we won’t do anything crazy, ok?”
“I mean—“
“Just try it this one time?” Lanayru’s blue eyes widen, like a small puppy begging for food. “For me?”
Damn it. Those darn puppy dog eyes.
Nerin sighs. “Fine…”
“Yay!! Ooh, this is gonna be so fun!” Lanayru shrieks in delight, as Nerin reluctantly approaches the spike directly behind hers. “I’ve been waiting for this ever since I created her. The two of us finally riding her together…Ack, I’m so excited!”
Climbing up on Bluebell’s back, the Swan Goddess positions herself the same way as her friend, arms around the spike in a death grip. It’s going to be okay, Nerin, you won’t fall off. Nothing crazy is gonna happen, she won’t flip upside down, you won’t fall, you won’t fall, you won’t—
“Ready to roll?” The sound of Lanayru’s voice brings her back.
“Yeah..I’m ready.”
Just don’t look down.
“Okay, Bluebell, rise up!”
And the dragon obeys, lifting its large body off the ground with ease. Nerin finds herself holding her breath as they rise higher and higher, her wrists aching slightly from the strong grip on the spike. A cool breeze ruffles through the hair of both the Goddesses and the dragon, causing Lanayru to chuckle. Alright, this isn’t so bad… She finally lets her breath go, heart still racing rapidly in her chest.
“Bluebell, fly!”
At Lanayru’s command, the dragon pushes itself forward slowly, moving its three sets of claws through the air. Nerin keeps her gaze focused on the back of her friend’s hair, directly in front of her. Never looking down.
“Don’t worry, little one, a forward fly is all she knows how to do,” the Water Goddess explains. “No going backwards, flipping or spinning yet, I’m still working with her.”
Not yet? Nerin wants to say. How about not at all? The last thing she needs right now is to be spun around, hundreds of feet in the sky. The thought alone nearly makes her sick.
Lanayru briefly turns her head back to glance at her friend. “Hey, how are you doing? Is this okay?”
The Swan Goddess, still pale and stiff, nods her head.
“Oh, good.” Facing forward once more, Lanayru whistles at Bluebell. “Faster, girl!”
“We’re going faster?” Nerin squeaks out, almost without thinking.
“What, you think we were gonna fly at a snail’s pace the whole time? You gotta have some real fun here!”
The dragon’s speed starts to increase, and her heart skips a beat.
“Oh…okay. Sure.” Breathe, just breathe. You won’t fall.
The wind whips through her hair, and she hears Lanayru shriek in delight. She almost has her entire body around the spike now, not daring to move a muscle. Look straight ahead. Look at RuRu.
“WOO HOOOO!!!!” Lanayru cries out, laughing. “That’s what I’m talkin’ about, Bluebell, good girl!!”
They glide effortlessly through the air, and Nerin tries to calm her stiff breathing. Now she is finally beginning to feel secure. Sparkles of white magic from the dragon’s body circle in the wind and flutter over the two Goddesses, dissipating slowly.
“Hey, RuRu!” she exclaims. “This is actually…fun!”
“See, I told ya so!” Her friend doesn’t turn her head, but Nerin knows she is grinning. “Here, watch this!”
Another whistle sounds, and the dragon speeds up even further. The wind howls in Nerin’s ears and she lets out a shriek of laughter. See, you’re okay! This is awesome!
“I’m trying to train her so she responds to my whistles only! Not my words!” Lanayru shouts over the noise of the wind. “But she’s still workin’ on it!”
Still a bit uncertain about looking down, Nerin closes her eyes, feeling as if she is floating on her own through the blue sky, perhaps above her own domain, as all her swan maidens watch her in awe…
Another whistle. “Bluebell, circle!”
The abrupt sound startles the Swan Goddess, as her eyes shoot back open and she instinctively wraps herself tighter around the spike. Her whole body tilts slightly as the dragon’s body turns to make a large arc, wind whipping hard into her side.
“Lanayru!!” she yells in surprise. “What are you doing?”
“Hahahaha!! Ha ha ha!!” The Water Goddess throws her head back in hearty laughter. “Now this is what you call some fun!!”
Bluebell moves around in a large circular shape, and Nerin feels herself smiling. She makes sure not to close her eyes again so she can watch her friend’s commands.
“One more thing, alright?! Bluebell, figure-eight!” Lanayru follows this with a whistle that sounds quite different from the last few.
This time, Nerin readies herself for the dragon’s change in direction, as it rockets through the air in a serpentine path, gliding a ways forward then looping around itself to complete the “eight” shape. She screams in delight along with Lanayru, noticing how relaxed her body has become. The fear and tension from before has almost completely disappeared.
“Here, if you’re feeling comfortable, check this out!” The Water Goddess tilts her head, looking down at the ground far below them. “The view is amazing!”
Making sure she still has a strong grip, Nerin cautiously does the same, something she most certainly wouldn’t have done five minutes ago.
Oh my Goddesses.
Her best friend’s domain, and everything in it that they each hold dear, is stunningly visible from this height. With a bird’s eye view she can see just about everything: the palace, the healing spring, all the intricacies of majestic waterworks…it is enough to take her breath away in amazement.
“Woah…” she mutters, realizing Lanayru probably can’t hear her.
“So, what do you think, little one?! Isn’t this so cool??”
“Yeah!!” Making sure to raise her voice, she beams at her friend. “I-I can’t believe it!! I have never seen anything like this before!!”
“I know right?? That’s how I felt my first time too!” The Water Goddess turns her head back to face forward, and Nerin follows suit. Bluebell is still moving in its figure-eight patterns.
Lanayru lets out one more whistle. “Alright, Bluebell, go home!”
The dragon seems to nod its head at the request, and soon it straightens back out before slowing down. The wind becomes less harsh, and she gives her hands a break by loosening her grip slightly. Whew, you did it! You…rode a dragon!
As they make their descent, Nerin lets out a sigh of relief, throat slightly hoarse from all the shouting. Bluebell’s knowledge of where it resides surprises her, and soon the familiar pillars and fencing draw closer. She wonders what her maidens will think when she tells them of the ride…especially Ivory, who is now very close with Lanayru. Maybe next time, the three of them could all ride together.
“Well, we made it,” Lanayru states, not needing to shout anymore. “Good girl, Bluebell. You did so awesome!”
Slowly and gently, the dragon lowers itself onto the ground, curling back up in its original shape. The two Goddesses make their dismount, their hair tangled and frazzled from the harsh wind up above. But Lanayru still looks as beautiful as ever.
“So, how’d you like that, little one? Fun, huh?”
“Yeah!” Nerin chuckles. “Thanks for, uh…forcing me to do it.” She glances at Bluebell, who closes its eyes and snorts quietly.
“No problem, darling.” Lanayru gently pets the dragon’s fluffy mane. “I knew you would come around anyway.”
Allowing Bluebell to take a much-needed nap, they walk side by side toward the exit of the dragon’s home. Lanayru clears her throat, voice slightly raspy from all the shouting to her friend. And in the peaceful silence, Nerin observes a couple Dwellers talking in the distance, the blue hair of Cordelia catching her eye.
One thought keeps coming back to her, though…of how amazing it would be to have her own dragon.
