Quote from Veilenoir

"I was born a child of dragons. My mother had gotten herself lost on a hike in the snowfields of the northern lands. Little did she know she was walking through the territory of a lone duke who found her on the verge of frostbite in a bleak blizzard. He found her and nursed her back to health over the coming weeks. They fell in love in the process. I was born a year later but my mother's constitution had suffered ever since the blizzard and she died during childbirth. My father stricken with grief became distant. He raised me until I was old enough to walk, told me all that I just told you all, and then exiled me to walk through the snow. I always assumed if I was born a full dragon like him and not half, that would have lessen the blow and he would have been more willing to treat me as family. So that is why I am here now, to discover any secrets I can to turn oneself into a dragonkin."
