On the streets of the market of Dragnof´s capital, Aversia and Zeldairs were looking at the different wares that were sold there. It ranged from exotic fruits, to carpets, to weapons and armor.
They didn´t have many chances to come to this place, since they didn’t have much free time and in their free time were they most of the time playing with other children, watched Vulcan at his work or were shown many places or things by either Challot, Emrissen, Irene or Belserian.
But, the two of them still loved the market the most, because of the different things that were sold here and that there was always something new to see.
Challot, Emrissen and Vulcan followed the two half dragons from behind and were watching the two as they were looking at ethery thing that was displayed at the stalls.
Aversia was interested at the weapons, armors and accessories made from metals.
She was really interested in her father´s work and forging in general.
Zeldaris was also interested at the weapons and armors, but not as much as Aversia and was more interested at the different kind´s of food and magical objects.
He found the art of enchanting and Irene´s and Vulcan´s art of enchantment very interesting and even more by Vulcan´s try of combining forging and enchantment.
Both also had a love for books, they read almost every day and about almost everything.
Of course, Challot and Emrissen made sure that the two wouldn´t get their hand on mature books.
They continued like this, until they were at the last and most important stall, were books were sold.
The merchant at the stall was an old man, who was always smoking on a pipe.
“Ah, if it isn´t the two half dragons. How can I help you today?” asked the old man as he saw the two.
“Old man do you have anything new?” asked Zeldaris.
“Or something you would recommend?” asked Aversia.
“Let me think, I believe there was something interesting in the new books.”
He looked trough the piles of books.
“There they are. I have two books that should be interesting for you. The first is an encyclopedia about humanoid races and the second is about celestial magic.”
Both Aversia and Zeldaris were immediately interested and looked at their parents with puppy eyes, who all had a wry smile on their face.
Vulcan paid for the books, but didn’t gave Aversia and Zeldaris the books, because he noticed that the two exhaled warm air.
He turned around and looked at Challot and Emrissen, who in turn looked very concerned because they knew what this meant and that this was really the worst timing possible.
The two half dragons didn´t notice anything strange, except that is got a little hot, but were more concerned that Vulcan didn´t gave them their books.
The two dragons quickly grabbed their children, used their magic to form their wings and flew of with the two half dragons, who were to surprised at their mother´s actions to react.
And a few seconds later came a two-meter-long grey flame out of both half dragons’ mouth.
The surprised merchant looked at Vulcan and asked, “What was that?”
Vulcan, who looked at the fast disappearing Challot and Emrissen said, “A close call and really bad timing.”
“For what?”
“They are developing their dragon´s breath and as far as I know dragons can´t control their breaths at the beginning and become walking flamethrowers who spew constantly fire and burn down everything in their vicinity.”
The old merchant and Vulcan imagine what would have happened if Challot and Emrissen hadn´t reacted so fast.
The whole market area and a good part of the city would have been burned down.
And imagine this image, both were sweating bullets.
In the meantime, Challot and Emrissen arrived at one of the castles courtyards with the two flamethrowers, who in turn where overwhelmed by everything that happened.
The dragons were sighing in relief, made their wings disappear and sat down on a nearby bench and watched as Aversia and Zeldaris were continuing to spew flames, with a nostalgic look on their faces.
A few moments later and the two half dragons were finally able to work through everything that happened and realized that they were spewing flames from their mouths.
Initially overjoyed that they finally developed their dragon´s breath, but they soon realized that they couldn´t stop and started to panic.
“Don’t worry, your body´s need to adjust to your breath and you will be able to stop spewing flames. Although that may take a while. For example, Challot needed one hours before being able to stop and mine was one and a half hours. So good luck and hopefully your jaws won´t hurt too much.”
Both Challot and Emrissen started to laugh and thought back to the time of their first-time breathing fire and their parents laughing at them.

Although they were concerned over the grey flames that the two were breathing.
They felt ancient and felt as if they had no element, but at the same time had.
Was this magic at in its purest form and if so why were Aversia and Zeldaris able to wield it?
Questions upon questions were filling their heads, to which they knew none of the answers, but they were pulled out of their thoughts as they felt someone approaching.
It was Irene and Belserion and as they saw the situation the two half dragons were in and laughed.
“Ah, I can finally understand why parents find it so funny when their children develop their dragon´s breath.”
“I was always wondering how it looks like when a dragon develops their dragon´s breath. But isn’t it a little too small?”
“Well, they are only half dragons and most of their power´s are sealed, so I am not surprised that their flames are so small. But I have to say that I was worried, those two are after all their children and I feared that they would burn down half the city.”
“Really, how big are the flames normally for the first time?”
“About 10 Meters for a normal dragon.”
Belserion looked at Challot and Emrissen who were discussing something and continued,” When it comes to stronger dragons, like those two monsters, I can´t say for certain.”
“They are late bloomers and are going to surpass you and who are you calling monster?” yelled Emrissen.
“Since when is the length of the flame important and why are you concerned about it. Also, for us normal dragons are you two monsters.”
And just after he finished, he was hit by Emrissen´s fist and was lying on the floor.
“Just because we were from birth stronger, doesn´t make us monsters and even if we are, you haven’t seen the true monsters of the dragon race.”
(He really needs to watch his words around those two)
Vulcan arrived after about 30 minutes and smiled wryly at what he saw.
Challot and Emrissen were grilling some food with Aversia´s and Zeldaris´s flame, Irene was mending Belserion, who was lying on the floor, with a fist mark on his head.
(He really needs to watch his language around them.)
“So, they are still at it, by the way can´t they just close their mouths to stop breathing fire.”
When Aversia and Zeldaris heard this, they rolled with their eyes as to say, “Thank you, captain obvious”.
“Thank you, captain, obvious, but it is not so easy, because if they do, the fire will go another route and that is to the most part unpleasant and most importantly if they did, we wouldn´t be able to grill right now.” Said Challot holding a grilled fish.
“You two really are sometimes too much, you know that?”
“Isn´t it part of why you are together with Emrissen. Oh, and could you do as a favor and bring two vases with water. I think they are almost finished.”
Surprised, Vulcan looked closer at the flames and indeed, they were getting weaker.
Vulcan ran of in order to find some water, while the two half dragons grew exited that it was almost over.
Five minutes later and Vulcan brought two huge vases and placed them besides the two.
The flames were almost out, and smoke began to come out of their mouths.
The second the flames were completely out, drank the two half dragons the water in the vases and drank almost all the water in them.
Steam came out of their mouths the moment they finished drinking and they started to massage their jaws.
“Congratulations you have successfully developed your dragon´s breath and took a very important step. Now go on, show us what you can do.” Said Challot.
Aversia and Zeldaris continued to massage their jaw for a minute.
After their jaws didn´t hurt so much anymore, did they strongly breath in and breath out and breathed out a four-meter long grey flame.
This time the flame was much stronger and more brilliant.
“So, they finally show their strength.”
“What did you expect Emrissen, they are our children.”
