Hope landed safely on the platform/entrance of her home. She set down Goldensun, hoping her pet hadn't wanted the necklace. She put her bag away, glancing towards Goldensuns room

"Alright dear! Go ahead and return to your room" Hope tried to sound bored but she was too excited. She had decorated the room with things she used to own when she was younger. She had even taken the time to craft some diamond and emerald earrings for her pet. Hope had fluffed all the pillows and got the softest blanket.
"I was able to collect a few things from the hatchery" Hope smiled as she peered into the room. "Everything here is yours, and if you need anything just give the bell a ring and Flamingo will be with you" The Skywing didn't really trust Flamingo(A Skywing/Mudwing hybrid. Mind if she's a NPC?) but she would have to learn to
"I know. I know. A lot to take in" Hope murmured, clipping diamond earrings onto Goldensun. "Would you possibly like roasted pig?"
Hope snapped her fingers and a small dragonet scurried in, carrying a large tray with about 10 pigs on it. "Thank you" she murmured, taking the tray from the dragon. She set it next to Hope, "Eat up"
Hope frowned a bit, as if someone had just insulted her. She shook her head, forcing a smile. "I'm going to go organize something" she almost stuttered with the sentence, something she never had done before
Hope stepped into her own room, picking up a book. The bookshelf jolted and moved aside, allowing the rich Skywing to pass. She moved into a room, opening the book she had grabbed. There was a dragon in the book with red scales but Nightwing underwing patterns
Hope flipped through the pages, stopping at the page of the crossbreed dragon that had her head poked out of the dragonets eggshell
It was almost a story. Everytime she flipped to another page, it was a photo taken from the day after the last. She finally stopped at the final page. It was Goldensun being sold to Hope
"Those were the good times" Hope murmured, picking up the book. Maybe she'd show it to the deformed Skywing
Hope carried the book out and into her 'daughters' room, snapping so all the maids would get out. "I know you haven't really known your parents, Goldensun. But I have a few pictures you might want to look at" she smiled
"You know, the dragons who had your egg" Hope replied calmly. Had Goldensun thought that Hope was the actual mom? She placed the book on the bed, flipping through the pages.
"Well, I thought that maybe you'd want to see them" Hope had a few pictures of them. They used to be close friends. She turned the pages until she stopped at Hope smiling with two other dragons
"Goldensun, your parents didn't sell you cause they wanted to" Hope tried to cover up her lies the best she could. (Wait, did they purposely? And do you want the parents to have any specific name?)
"They were just about to go to war..." Hope tried to tell it as if it was the truth. "With a fierce war, chances of survival were slim. They decided to sell you to a wealthy family. Someone they knew would be able to protect and take care of you"
Hope seemed to feel a real connection with Goldensun for once. A book of memories. Her snout stuck in it. Strange to think about
"Memories are strange things" Hope murmured randomly. "One can know what exactly happened, but their memory fades.."
Hope nodded, covering up her sadness. "Yes, one day, so crystal clear! The next-" she sighed, "-And it's gone"
Hope didn't seem phased, "It's fine" it had been the first time that a dragonet had ever leaned for support against her. A strange, but nice, feeling
Hope shrugged, "Some of them" she tried to recall all her fun moments. "There's only so many pages" she joked, knowing her dramatic life would require 18 of those books to cover a year
"Some dragons would rally up teams of scavengers" Hope left out the part where one mess-up got themselves eaten
Hope nodded, "Amber used to send Skywings out to bring back cages full of scavengers, then try their artistic abilities"((Hoi))
Hope tilted her head, "Really?" she felt a little happy about that statement. "Maybe one day we'll get our pictures painted!" she clapped her talons together
Hope nodded, "Might take a while with those slow scavengers" she joked. There were probably enough to make the picture take moments to make
Hope paused, and everything seemed to go completely silent. She was a bit shocked at the word, 'master' but covered it up quickly. "Well, you were kind and small and a perfect daughter!"
"Well, I guess new 'guardian' if that fits better" Hope replied softly. She couldn't help but take pity on the wingless dragon
Hope leaned over, giving Goldensun a hug before getting up. "You should get your sleep, we have to wake up early to get a good spot in the painting line!" of course the Skywing could just bribe the others
Hope quickly put the album away, quite pleased with herself. She had actually convinced the wingless dragon that her parents used to want her. She wasn't exactly proud at how she lied, but it was still better than truth
Hope twirled into her room, eyes gleaming. She was beginning to pick out the jewelry she'd wear. She wanted it to match Goldensuns 'fancy' outfit that the master would probably pick out. "Diamonds" she decided
Hope quickly picked out the diamond outfit. She even had a diamond collar and tiara for Goldensun. She skipped to her small bed, staring at the ceiling and slowly falling asleep
Hope was still snoring away, two silk patches held on top of her eyes. They were meant to not let her see any light if it peeked into the room. She shuffled, still half asleep, into a better position on her side before snoring softly once again. She was having a great dream. In it, Queen Amber was giving her an award for 'Most Wealthiest Skywing'
"I happily accept this award" Hope mumbled out loud, still focused on her dream. "Thanks Amber. Sorry, Queen Amber" she corrected herself quietly with a small smile. She awoke with a start at the sound of one of the guards sneezing. The Skywing took off the silk coverings, quickly putting them on a table
Hope was immediately up and about, putting on her diamond wing drapes and putting on her own pair of diamond earrings. They weren't as large as Goldensuns though. She wanted the dragonets pair to be special to her, and to her only. She got a bunch of diamond bracelets, including a necklace of a scavenger encased in diamond. It was newly created, and some said the scavenger would still live but not for long. The scavenger twitched in an attempt to break free of the diamond but was unsuccessful
Hope glanced at the sound towards the soft clink of the diamonds. She knew that Goldensun was the only one with the clear jewelry. "Goldensun?" She murmured, edging towards the wingless Dragonets room. She had grabbed some bracelets for her as well
Hope knocked on the door, slowly entering. "I have some bracelets for you" she held them out, setting them on the table that the earrings rested on. "We're you planning to wear the earrings?"
