"Let me read you a story, let me read you a romance; I will read, you will listen, and this terrible night will pass."

"I thought Denizen said you couldn't talk."

"Couldn't" and "wouldn't" are different things, my dear. He's heard me speak.

"Oh. Why the change?"

I suppose I simply didn't have anything interesting to talk about. Although that doesn't stop you lot, does it, now.

"Haha. Very funny. Do you have a story, then?"

Far too many. Where would you like to start?

"Tell me about the clan."

Which one? There was one before, and there is one now.

"I guess chronological makes more sense, huh? Wasn't there a clan called the Wisteria Whirls or something like that?"

True. It's quite a complicated tale, though, and the clan wishes to move forward from it. I don't agree with what Leviathan says, what with this erosion of the past to make way for the present, but I suppose I can't complain. After all, I value the roof above my head. Let's see...

I suppose we should start at the founders. Titania and Solus founded this clan as the Wisteria Whirls.

"I've never seen them."

They left a while ago. I'm not sure what happened to them, actually. Solus left first - he hated the other dragons in this clan, said something about Arcane being the superior element. I'm surprised Acapella didn't get to him, what with all the hatred he carried...

"Acapella?"

She was Shade-touched.

"Oh dear."

Well, she was formerly. Don't worry about it. There was another one - Fortissimo? Not Shade-touched, don't worry, just prone to enormous bolts of magic. You do know how familiar stasis works, correct?

"Elemental magic keeps familiars alive but comatose when they aren't bonded to a dragon."

Yes, precisely. It's fantastically unethical but very cost-effective. We can't all be like that Skydancer down at the Trading Post - do you know how bothersome it would be to let dragons harass our menagerie as they please?

Fortissimo used to unleash enormous amounts of energy into our bestiary. And through a series of mishaps, ended up unconscious and missing for quite a while. And through a further series of mishaps, there was some nonsense about a dragon with insomnia and another dragon with chronic fatigue, and something else about a dreamworld...

"I'm a little confused. And more than a little frightened."

It's okay, my dear. It's very confusing. Frightening, not so much. The short of it is that they're all gone away now, their stories mostly resolved. Acapella is fine. Fortissimo is fine, though also quite dead. And Titania and Solus, wherever they are, are having whatever the equivalent of marriage troubles are in a culture that has no knowledge of marriage.

"I know what marriage is."

I know you do. I'm simply stating that most dragonhood does not.

So those were the Whirls. They're gone now, and we've left the clan grounds. Now we inhabit this old mansion. It's quite pretty.

"It really is. I like it a lot."

Of course you do, else you wouldn't have stayed.

"But what about you, Finite?"

What ABOUT me? I'm just the lorekeeper.

"You have stitches on your throat. Also, you're super mysterious and like sitting in the background and laughing. I have questions."

Because it's so easy to watch them all make fools of themselves. Also, I suppose it's just interesting. I grew up here, and I was supposed to be for the service of the Arcanist, but it was just... Nice. To stay. To write. My charge is the stories we tell, and it's my duty to make sure someone knows them. Even if it must be you.

"I- I think I understand that, maybe, but. Stitches? Throat?"

I can talk perfectly fine. Sort of. Trust me, they haven't bothered me for a very long time. I will be fine.

"Will be. You're not fine right now?"

Story's over.

"So the clan now..."

Is called Clan Tempest. It was Vega's joke, because when we were the Whirls, we were always at each other's throats. It was tempestuous, you see. We haven't really done much lately. Our clan has clearly grown in number, although...

In reality, I'm not sure what a good half of them are doing.

"That's the ones who stay in the mansion most of the time?"

Yes. I think they're misplaced, story-wise.

"What?"

There's a different storm that they belong to. Don't worry about it. Then there's yet another group...

"The ones that stay in the back of the building."

They're misplaced, too.

"I... see. That leaves the sixteen of us."

Indeed. We're not really doing much. It's more of a waiting game. Trying to restore this mansion to something livable, or something of that kind. We'll figure out what to do from there.

"And what does that mean for you, then? About your stories? Is your job over?"

I'm still recording stories, you know. They're just about squabbling over who got to eat the last axolotl instead of who tried to kill who. It's a refreshing change of pace. Not quite unwelcome.

Now, shouldn't you get to bed?

"I'm way older than you are, y'know."

I know, my dear, but if you choose to masquerade as a hatchling, you will be treated as one. Run along, Caelum.

"Fiiine. Alright. One more thing."

Yes?

"Thank you, Finite."

It's no problem, dearest.
