I’m surrounded by pain. No matter what I try, which way I turn, I’m surrounded by pain. My dragon is furious, insane, from the pain and fear of losing his hoard.

When I felt Kit pull away from us, from me, the dragon broke free and I wasn’t able to stop him anymore. I wasn’t strong enough. I was too surprised, too surprised by Kit’s actions, too surprised by the sudden violent reaction of my dragon. I’d never imagined that he’d even consider pulling away from us, ever...

My dragon broke out, pushing me to the back, not letting me keep any control over our body. Locking me out, or more precisely, locking me inside my body.

Normally, I get control over our actions, over what we do, we work together, but right now, the dragon has full control, it’s too strong.

I panicked when it wanted to attack Aideen, because she was so close to Kit that the dragon assumed she was the one trying to take Kit away. And then it had half a heart to eat Kit, of all people... Of course, when it decided that the pain wasn’t going anywhere, the pain in its leg messing with its mind, Litha was also looking pretty tasty...

The worst part was that I wasn’t able to see much of what was going on, only rarely able to slip close enough to the surface to see what was going on. Glimpses here and there, not enough to get a full picture.

The pain, it’s suffocating and at the same time it’s like needles running through my body, not just my leg, it’s taken over everything in me as I’m stuck inside the dragon.

The dragon only knows two things, it’s in pain and its hoard is in danger. Kit was in danger because of his pulling away from the hoard, while also being the cause for the danger by doing it. A perfect recipe for insanity for an already compromised dragon.

I’ve never felt like this before. I’ve never experienced dragon’s insanity, not even close to it. And I don’t have much hope that I’ll be able to break out of it, I don’t know many stories of people who actually survive going into this insanity and coming out the other end... Not coming out the other end sane or anything, but coming out of the other side at all.

Usually, dragons are killed when they go insane, no matter where they are. Even when we still had our own lands, insane dragons would be put down, because they killed indiscriminately, which put everyone in danger, no matter who they were.

I don’t want to die, I really don’t, but if it’s the only way to keep them safe, I will gladly die for them, because I don’t want to wake up human again, in control of who I am, if it means I’ll have to live knowing I killed the ones I love... Because that’s what insane dragons do.

The dragon roars, its movements different this time, jerking against a force wrapping around it, and I feel a sliver of control return to me.
