Greater Than Those

“The humans will not accept you for much longer. Your power is growing,” the man said. He cast Rastaban a look. “Perhaps some have their own peculiarities, but no human can compare to the gods of the sky.”

“Gods of the sky?” Andrev asked.

The man smiled. “Indeed. The dragons are the gods of the sky.”

The tension, the hope and anger and fear that had been building in Andrev’s chest, dissipated. “A dragon? That’s what I am?”

“You have no tail and no wings,” Kana said, and sounded like a puzzled child.

“A dragon is greater than those things.”
