Hraunara's Nest


After a long days walk through the mountains, you finally eye a beautiful lake. Its color is almost magical blue, and next to it stands a big tree. As you come closer, you notice that the tree has both flowers and berries. You ignore the tree, since you don't know if the berries are poisonous, and bend down to the lake. As you reach out with your cup, a nose suddenly appears from the water. [Oh! What is that?!] A whole face appears, and looks pretty insulted. "I'm not a 'that', I'm a Hraunara. And you're trying to drink my lake." [Eh...I'm sorry. Didn't know that it's your lake.] "I should put a sign over there.

You watch the Draik as she flaps her wings and flies up to pick two berries. "You can just call me Raun." She smiles. "When you're here anyway, I'll show you my nest." She hands you the berries. "You have to eat both of them." You take the berries and eat them.Khila amin! Eh...I mean...follow me." She quickly jumps into the lake. You stare, but shrugs. [Seize the day!] You jump in, and follow her...


As you can't hold your breath anymore, you open your mouth and gasps for air...and breathes. :;The berries make you able to breath under water. Raun probably forgot to tell you.;: You eye a white Gallion with big, cute eyes. On her back sits a small Cooty. [Who are you?] "We'll tell you everything later." You finally enter a small, cosy cave. "This is my nest, the Gallion's name is Laug and her Cooty is Foss.

Sitting in a chair with a cup of...tea? you smile at Raun. [How can you serve tea under the water?] "This is - of course - a magical cave." [Everything about you is a little magical, isn't it?] Raun and Laug smiles. "Iceland is magical."


You walk around the room while Raun and the Gallion is making cookies. You suddenly eye an old book with the title The history of the Draiks - Iceland?. It nearly drags you over, and you look around...nobody's there. Slowly you open it and turns the first page:

Draiks
These cute little dragons appeared in Neopia one day without much warning at all... it's as if they came from another world...
Draiks are very rare, and they are said to come from Meridell. That isn't the whole truth, as some of them immigrated to other countries, when the humans came. Some of them traveled to Iceland, and hardly anyone returned, since...

You hardly notice anything in excitement, and suddenly Raun stands next to you. "Are you interested in the story of us?" the beautiful creature asks. [A bit...well, I was just reading this book and...well...] "Yes, I'm an Icelandic Draik. My parents was both from Iceland, but..." [But what?] The Draik looks sad. :;She was stolen, when she was still an egg.:: Laug explains quietly. ::The thieves were just trying to make money by stealing an egg. As you probably know, Draiks are worth a lot.;: You nod, and Raun shakes her head. "They sold me...just sold me. To some person, who only wanted me as a trophy. I could feel it, laying inside my egg. This person was always bragging of me. Luckily, she didn't really care for me, so one day she dropped me between the berry plants in Brightvale. Mom lives in Brightvale, so she one day she was out picking berries, she found me. I was carried home in a berry basket on Chatikki's back.
Mom then carried my egg around for nearly 5 months or so in a back pack. When I finally hatched, mom and dad were there, along with most of my family (quite a lot pets).
You look confused at her. [I thought you were stolen from your parents?] "Yes, my blood parents. Mom and dad are my adopted parents." You nod again, understanding a little more. [Then how have your life been?] She smiles. "Quite good. I believe I'm spoiled, but then again, most of mom and dad's pets are spoiled." [Then you just hang around and do nothing..?] She and Laug laughs. :;We babysit the baby pets sometimes. Most of the siblings babysit them once in a while. That's hard work, as they are many now.;:


You suddenly notice the Gallion and Cooty again. You nearly forgot that they were here, listening to the story. Raun notice your look and pets Laug. "Laug is a gift from dad, Foss is a gift from mom. Their names mean 'Hot Spring' and 'Waterfall'." [Icelandic?] :;Of course.;: You look interested at them. [How long have you known each other?] "Since a short while after I hatched. Then Laug hatched. I have absolutely no idea what Foss did." Laug nods. :;And I'm taking care of both of them.;: Raun blushes a little. :;She feels unsafe when she's around guys. I don't know why.;:

You nod at the beautiful egg-shaped necklace around Raun's neck. [What is that?] "This is a gift...it hang around my egg when mom found it. I guess it's Icelandic. Also, it changes color with my mood.

  • Pink bubbles = Happiness
  • Green fire = Anger
  • Grey = Sadness
  • Blue-green = Love

  • A quick glance around you shows that the room is filled with bears, books and weird stuff. [What do you spend your time with?] "I'm quite interested in the East. And elves, of course. I'm trying to speak elvish too, as you may have noticed.
    Lle quena i'lambe tel' Eldalie? She smiles. "It means 'Do you speak elvish?'." :;Aa' lasser en lle coia orn n' omenta gurtha.;: You smile at Laug. ['I speak elvish very well, and so do you'?] They both laugh. "'May the leaves of your life tree never turn brown'.
    Raun hands you a book. "Here, now you can learn to speak elvish too!

    She waves her tail in front of you. "Look!" You eye a small bracelet with a ice cream shaped charm in it. "I love ice cream. Yum!" :;Do us all a favour and never mention ice cream near her...she goes wacko.;:


    [You mentioned your family? Where are they?] "Most of my family live here in Brightvale with me and mom, but of course some moved away. My family is way too big to list, but I really love all of them." [Friends?] "Well...for some reason, I don't have many friends." :;Males scare you, and you scare females.;: "What do you mean by that?" :;Did you see the look in Crista's face, when you started dancing on a table?;: "..."


    You eye a paper on the board, as Hraunara again leaves to find some more pictures of her. It looks like a list..? :;Actually, it's Raun's list of family, likes and dislikes, markings and stuff like that.;: [Oh...may I have a look?] The Gallion looks mysteriously at you. :;I guess so. After all, it was made to read.;:

    You look at some strange whirl pools in the wall. [Wait a second...in the wall?!] "Yeah. They're...portals. You can swim through them and meet other pets." You gaze. [That's amazing!] "I guess so? Most of them are pets that I don't know, I just like their home or world or whatever. Go take a look." She smiles. "Oh...and sometimes one of them dissapear. I make them...

    You slowly move up on the bank, and the Draik jumps up next to you. "It was nice having you in my nest." She jumps in the tree and curls her tail around a branch so she's hanging upside down. "Have a nice day. Oh...and lissenen ar' maska'lalaith tenna' lye omentuva." She smiles and grabs Laug and Foss and starts playing with them. You look at her once more and start walking away. When you look back, the tree, the lake and the Draik are dissapeared...
