PERCEPTION'S DIARY
A GUIDE OF A SUPERNATURAL COLONY
* Pyrrhia isn't the only continent in the Dragon World. While we estimated it was about one-third of our realm, it appears that it could potentially be way smaller than presumed. We could potentially be only a dot in comparison to the full world. Somewhere in this vast world lies a large island inhabitants call Antirrhea. Quite small for a continent yet still large enough for 3 civilizations to lie in.
* From sifting through their library while their backs were turned, I discovered the dragons that live here actually originated from Pyrrhia. Though as scavengers began to get greedier and greedier and testing their luck, these dragons' ancestors began to become more and more anxious. They began to group up into a flock with their shared fear and soon left over the mountains for good, reaching this island free of scavengers.
* There they settled, slowly forming into 4 separate tribes:
MOONSCALES</span>
 DESCRIPTION; very slender, elegant long snouts; no signs of armor and overscales, only underscales; quite thin wings; the only physical defense is their long, sharp spikes from their back to their tail; a specific hue of silvery-teal scales that despite across many dragons barely budge in saturation; black sclera and pupils with red eyes; the only diversity in them is their horn shape which can be in multiple curls, straightened angles, and any length with seemingly no limit
 ABILITIES; the strongest animus magic, presumably, in the entire world 
 HABITAT; at top Mount Moon, usually in the highest elevation 
 DIET; despite their magical capabilities they don't often hunt large game, only medium sized ones such as cow 
RULER; Their main ruler is unknown as they have multiple regiments of with leaders; the only one that concerns you is the on assigned to Pyrrhia, Giygas
SILVERSCALES</span>
 DESCRIPTION; very thick and broad; a lot of armor around them as if they were dragon-sized beetles; talking about which they have bug-like wings hidden under shells; their shell opens up around their face creating a heavy shadow that spreads to the middle of their snout; lights engraved on the side of their necks, down their limbs and tail that can flicker; they come in any shade as long as it's silvery, sometimes even being gold 
 ABILITIES; animus magic, though a little weaker than moonscales 
 HABITAT; from their appearance it's likely their habitat was caves though with the moonscales' rule they've been moved to Mount Moon though they mostly remain in their facilities which are often in caves 
 DIET; unknown; I never saw one eat 
RULER; refer to Moonscales 
STARSCALES</span>
 DESCRIPTION; short only making up half of an average NightWing in height as well as very stout; their neck is rather short and they have an uplifted nostril making it seem as if a horn is at the end of their snout, almost like MudWings; oddly placed attenae like cougar whiskers; in shades of a reddish-pink; all adorn red bows representing their survival in the Mountain Incident
 ABILITIES; animus magic though around our level pre-2,000 AS; able to use their antennae to sense things from the presense of other dragons to changes of weather
 HABITAT; formerly Mount Moon prior to the Mountain Incident; now they remain in Foggy Peaks, some in the ranges' caves
 DIET; unknown-ish; assumedly composing of altered fruits 
RULER; they have no ruler since the Mountain Incident 
EARTHSCALES</span>
 DESCRIPTION; shortest of the 4 being up to a NightWing's shoulder slightly smaller than starscales, have horns placed on the sides of their head that make it seem their head is a wide-oval shape, these are likely tusks; prehensile tails; always comes in shades of of mostly green turquoise, usually darker shades 
 ABILITIES; able to spit a deadly venom; excellent fliers; a weak yet noticeable resistance to lava 
 HABITAT; very few live in their former stead; the Deep Darkness swamp; most choosing to instead take refuge in a cave that leads below the surface into a living ecosystem labeled Lost Underworld 
 DIET; assortment of forest critters and some small dinosaurs 
RULER; unknown, they appear coordinated as if they have one but none state one 
* The earth scales remained in the shadows of the forest, while the other three to the peaks, residing on Mt. Moon. There they ruled this enormous mountain range in 3 separate kingdoms, moon, silver, star, in complete harmony, suffixing themselves with 'scales'. Though inevitably a war would break out. A moonscale leader, Vigilor, claimed that the moonscales deserved to rule over all 2 tribes completely. Though the starscales argued against this wanting to remain in unanimous rule. Due to this, a war broke out known as the Mountain incident. The moonscales painted themselves in a higher light in their books did the starscales did which is without bias. The starscales could've defeated the moonscales with an alliance with the silverscales, however the moonscales were able to convince the silverscales in their ideology, making the starscales outmatched. Though the time between the beginning and this alliance was by 5 years, the moonscales being successfully wavered off for quite some time. This treaty though proved extremely deadly pitting the two strongest animi against the starscales, immediately retreating.
* The starscales would to go on find Foggy Peaks, a small mountain range on the other side of Antirrhea hidden within a dense and heavy fog caused by multiple waterfalls existing at once. At their disappearance the moonscales and silverscales fused to become the Starwings, creating a kingdom over the rest of the eastern part of the island. There they built a multitude of facilities as they begin to innovate in enchanted, silver statues powered by energy made by magic to aid them in their works.
* The moonscales found the Eye of Saturn from the remnants of the starscales' kingdom, using it to create a large map of the entire dragon world including a multitude of continents and islands with scavenger, dragon or both residents. This brought an idea, creating a project to bring all of the land together and all dragons into 1 society, ruled by the Starwings and share all resources to create endless inventions. They created different sections for all continents of dragon-life where they monitored the residents collecting data on species, abilities, etc. However the only data they've yet to collect was how they would interact with the Starwings themselves. So the moonscales decided to pick a continent to pull a pairing from and tested their theory by forcing them to raise a moonscale offspring.
* This is where my story begins as I was one of the two dragons abducted by them, the other being my dear wife Dove. We had just a clutch, both panicking as to whether our son would hatch nevertheless make it in the world below. We were forced into incubation for several weeks in order for them to determine the risks they were to take. They calculated that neither of us were willing to stand up to them, though for extra measure out our release they collared us.
* We were forced to take care of a young moonscale dragonet named Giygas. I will be honest, for a short while I grew attached to the youngling though Dove especially did. My care wasn't all fabricated, at the time the dragonet along with Dove was my only source of hope as we assumed we'd never be able to escape.
* However, seams grew exposed as the Starwings entrusted us more and more, eventually believing us to be too dumb and numb removing most forms of supervision until we were completely unsupervised and barely checked upon. This gave me time to begin turning their experiment against them, I was now the studier. I began confiscating books from their libraries, learning about these dragons, their history, and their society to which they likely assumed I wouldn't learn how to read, and it did take me a while, they wrote in an estranged language but not too distant from Pyrrhian.
* Soon I learned about the Failsafe Opal, an opal enchanted to great one magic with the right passcode whispered into it. This opal would be perfect to aid in our escape. I began to act more null, not tipping the scales too much to be noticeable. They began to grow confident enough to gossip about us as if we were scavengers, the perfect comfortability. I choose the day to tell Dove of my plan, wishing that she would come along. Though she refused, which perplexed me. It seems she's genuinely grown attached to the society that looks down upon her as a fool. She's especially close to the dragonet, though it would be too risky to bring him along so I refused her request to bring him after I slightly convinced her we should leave. At this answer she completely shut down any of my further pleading. It was only a matter of time until it would be too late for my leave, so I left to retrieve the opal and along with a satchel filled with my other 'borrowed' books I left the facility. There I fled to ends of Antirrhea, first to the forest in a panic where I met the barely discussed earthscales. They soon directed me to the starscales where a group planned to travel from Antirrhea. I asked them their end location, it was Pyrrhia! Huzzah, I can finally leave this place. I strongly wish Dove came along with me, but I refuse to force her to do so with magic, I refuse to stoop to the Starwing's level. 
* Before I left off for Pyrrhia, I received a vision. Now I am no moonborn, and despite gaining magic from the moonscales the animus seal still restricted my power to that of an S-rank so I couldn't enchant myself. No this vision must've been from another animus, possibly a touched object? The vision however was quite gruesome. Silver scales I assume to be the Starwings flickered across the sky as they burned and froze Pyrrhia in search of any animi remaining, stopping at no ends to even run the fauna mad leaving the island nothing but a chaotic husk. Why I could've possibly let that happen, I pleaded for however gave me this vision to show a possible good future in my already gloomy sadness. 
* As I got ready to leave I received another vision, this time it was 80 years in the future, seemingly when my first vision would occur. There, I was noted of no other than a great-grandson of mine along with supposed friends would rise to challenge them and free Pyrrhia from the Starwings' grasp. I needed to ensure this future was the only path the world was going, so I gathered together all of my notes into this diary, along with the opal itself to encase into a treasure I'd pass down to my son.
* I also pass down this message; Dissonance, my great-grandson, please claim the magic from this opal and oppose the Starwings to save not just Pyrrhia, but the entire dragon world. All of my hope falls within you - and please if you ever meet her, say hello to Dove for me, I don't think we'll be meeting anymore.
