"Mm..mmm... Where am I?"
Venus stirred awake, feeling the cold ground beneath her.
"Ahh?!"
As her eyes adjusted, the first thing she saw was a towering black dragon—nearly 20 meters tall—its obsidian scales glinting in the void-like light. Its abyssal eyes glowed faintly, and just one look made her body tremble with instinctive fear. An overwhelming pressure rolled off it like a tidal wave.
But then her gaze shifted.
Before her stood another dragon, smaller yet no less majestic. It was ten meters tall, cloaked in golden and white scales that shimmered like sunlight piercing through clouds.
Her breath caught in her throat as she recognised those kind golden eyes.
The fear that had gripped her heart melted away in an instant.
"Mana Daddy... is that you?" she whispered, her voice shaking with disbelief.
"Yes, it's me," the golden dragon rumbled softly. "And I've come again to grant you more power."
