”No, I still have my twin. I miss Wyvren but our children live on.” She explained ”The mate and the bond are different. A twin, the other half of a dragons power base, can not live without the other. If I was to die, or Mimmsy died we would both die.”
”OH?” Raina exclaimed in surprise.
”That's how dragons work dear. You see 218 I see 108 and two halves.” Winter Wyn explained patiently but Raina was beyond confused.
”But 2 halves make a whole.” Raina replied remembering her lessons from Daxin.
”Yes, but not in Dragons. You see myself and Tempest are here without our Twins. Therefore we are half of a pair. Tempests pair is a flight trainer and mine is Helmsman of the Guard.” Winter Wyn offered.
”Speaking of, Tempest perhaps you should go retrieve him. I will watch over Raina.” Ivory pointed out and Tempest nodded flying out into the sky.
Raina was still mulling over the information she had been given. ”So when 1 dragon dies, two are lost. Is that why there are so few?”
