Maybe Elysia can help shed some light on this situation. Objective completed: Even though your dragon has not unlocked their shapeshifting abilities, they have unlocked something else: acceptance! Scaled Yes/No: Yes Monsters (2) Boubataur (4) Soaring Theemis (4) Steppe Fury (3) Vultragon (2) Wind Elemental NPCs Dove Rewards None Dialogue Toddler or Kid Dragon joins you as Guest B. Dove is attempting to enjoy an ice cream in peace at Sunbreeze Grove. <Character>: Hey Dove. Dove glares back at you for interrupting him. <Character>: Are we... interrupting? Dove: Yeeees, but I don't mind. Dove stares at your dragon, his eyes turning rainbow. Your dragon looks back up at Dove, who then redirects his attention to you, as his eyes return to mint green. Dove: What's up? <Character>: Well, actually, we're here to see Elysia. Dove: Oh... Dove: You didn't know? <Character>: Know what? Dove closes his eyes and tilts his head down in a disheartening manner. Dove: Elysia... died. Your look of uncertainty quickly turns to shock at this sudden revelation. <Character>: W— <Character>: What?! <Character>: H-how?! When?! Dove keeps a straight face, but only for a short while. Dove: I'm just kidding, she's visiting her parents. Your look of shock turns to rage. <Character>: W—why would you say something like that?! Dove: Because it's fun. So, Elysia's not here. How can I help you? <Character>: You're... <Character>: sigh <Character>: I doubt you can help me. You couldn't... last time. Dove: Last time was last time. <Character>: Do you know anything about dragons? Dove: HA! Dove: Do I. <Dragon>: Ugh, let's go <Character>. This guy is a piece— Dove: Leeeet me stop you right here, hatchling! That's just rude. Is this what we're doing now? Being rude to your elders— Dove realises that in his defensiveness, he has unintentionally revealed his ability to understand Draconic. Dove: Oop. <Dragon>: Did he just— <Character>: Did you just... understand <Dragon>? Dove: Uhhhh... You glare at Dove, awaiting his explanation. Dove: sigh Dove: Alright, alright. Dove: I haven't been entirely honest with you... <Character>: You don't say. Dove: I'm not just a monk. Dove: I am a... dragon. Dove: Stuck in this form. Dove: I've turned to Elysia for help, but... Dove: There, now you know. My deepest secret... You appear to process Dove's response, surprised by his honesty. <Character>: You do realize you could have just said "I've learned Draconic" and I'd have believed you? Dove blinks alarmingly fast at this response, presumably wondering why he didn't think of it himself. Dove: Umm... Dove: I've learned Draconic. <Dragon>: Your friends are so stupid, <Character>. <Character>: Alright, so, you're a dragon. I suppose you could help us then, after all. <Character>: It's about <Dragon>. After they were purified some time ago, they— Dove: H–Hold up, hold up! You want me to help... them? <Character>: Yes. Dove: Yeeeesh, uuh, I don't know about thaaaat. <Character>: Avatars, what is it with you and my dragon?! <Dragon>: It's obviously because of my status! <Character>: Your what? Dove: Well, they're not wrong... Dove: It's like this: There are maaaany many many prophecies that are false... and some that are true. Dove: And the prophecy about some dragons are truer than others. And I'm very uncomfortable with prophecies. Or rather, I just don't want to meddl— <Character>: Excuse me, prophecy about which dragons? Dove: Oh, <Dragon>. I'm pretty sure that prophecy is true. Dove: But I suppose it doesn't actually matter, and in a way it's not quite about <Dragon> specifically... Dove: But... ugh, sorry, forget—forget about all of this! It doesn't matter. Deep breaths. Let me start again, properly this time. Dove: Tell me about <Dragon>'s problem, and depending on what it is, I'll evaluate whether I can help or not. <Character>: sigh <Character>: After <Dragon> was purified, they, for a split second, assumed the form of a human child. <Character>: Since then, they were unable to recall how they did it. Can you help? The end. Dove: Oooooh, shapeshifting! You should have started with that. <Character>: Uh, I tried!! You interrupted me and then went on this weird tangent! Dove: I'm afraid I can't help you with that issue. Shapeshifting is something each dragon has to, let's say, grow into. At their own pace. <Dragon>: Aww. <Dragon>: I was... actually looking forward to it. You look down at your dragon with sorrow. Dove: But I suppose... we could travel to the monastery in the Whispering Steppes. It housed some draconic knowledge. <Character>: Would we be welcome to peruse it? Dove: Oh, all of the monks are most likely already dead. That monastery was abandoned for quite some time. Dove: Like, for hundreds of years. Thousands? Lots. <Character>: ... <Character>: Was this the monastery you were in? Dove: Yup. <Character>: Then wouldn't you have the knowledge already? Dove: Oh, I don't read. I only like pictures. <Character>: I'm... actually not surprised. <Dragon>: Let's go!! I can't wait to shapeshift! You travel to the Whispering Steppes in search of the abandoned monastery, making your way along a path lined with various monsters, surrounded by fields of straw. Eventually you reach the abandoned monastery, passing an artifact which catches your eye. <Character>: Dove, this looks interesting. Dove: Interesting? Maybe. Relevant? No. Come here, I found the library! You dismiss your find and follow Dove's voice to the library, which too stands abandoned and empty. Dove: It's... empty. <Dragon>: Nooo! What now?! <Dragon>: I wanna shapeshift! Now! <Character>: Calm down <Dragon>, please. <Character>: Dove, any ideas? Dove struggles to find a suitable suggestion at first, but reveals another possibility without much certainty. Dove: I guess... <Dragon> can try shapeshifting near the centerpiece statue on the courtyard? It was a meditative point. Dove: A place of power or something. Dove: That's what the monks said at least. I don't know. <Dragon>: Take me there! 4 hours later Your dragon appears to be trying very hard to shapeshift before the centerpiece statue, to no avail. <Dragon>: Hnnnnnnggghhhhhh!!! Your dragon continues to attempt to shapeshift, but nothing happens. <Dragon>: pant pant <Dragon>: It... is... NOT... WORKING!!! <Dragon>: AAAAAAHH! <Dragon>: YOU SAID IT WOULD WORK! Dove: Whoa, easy there, I said I didn't know! Dove: It's more of a uh, natural process. Not quite something you can force. I don't think. <Dragon>: It's useless! You both are useless! Your dragon storms off in a fit of rage, upset by its apparent inability to shapeshift. Dove: Kids, eh? You feel sorrow for your dragon, powerless to help in this particular situation. <Character>: I'm... <Character>: Thanks for trying, Dove. Excuse me. You follow after your dragon, leaving Dove alone. Your dragon has flown to a section of the monastery you are unable to reach, separated by a chasm. You sit down at the edge and attempt to talk things through with your dragon. <Dragon>: I... Your dragon faces away from you, upset with itself. <Dragon>: I really wanted to shapeshift... <Dragon>: I've seen other dragons in people forms so many times. <Dragon>: It would have been so cool to walk on two legs and have hands. And speak with people. Be like people... <Dragon>: I thought I was the best, but I'm not. <Dragon>: Other dragons are better. You attempt to think of words that will comfort your dragon's inferiority complex. <Character>: You know what? So what if they can shapeshift? <Character>: Do you have to be like them? <Character>: Do you have to be like other dragons? <Dragon>: You suck at pep talks... <Character>: Maybe someday you WILL be able to shapeshift! And if not, you might get something much, much cooler! Who knows? <Character>: But for now... you can just be you. <Dragon>: Just... me. Your dragon ponders this sentiment for a moment, then flies back over the chasm towards you. <Character>: Remember that time we saved the world? <Dragon>: What? <Character>: You're supposed to ask "Which time?" <Dragon>: ... <Dragon>: Which time? <Character>: Exactly! <Character>: What other dragon do we know who can say they've saved Lore as many times as we have? <Dragon>: None, I guess. <Character>: And you did it all as a dragon. Your dragon realises you are right, lifting its spirits. <Dragon>: That's right! Who needs to shapeshift, anyway? <Character>: That's certainly a turn around. <Dragon>: I mean, I think I'd still like to try it out, but I don't really need to be able to in order to keep protecting Lore, right? <Dragon>: And if I keep worrying about it, maybe some other dragon and their minion will catch up to my record! You smile at your dragon's rediscovered confidence; your job here is done. <Dragon>: Anyway, I'm bored now. Let's go back to saving Lore! Complete Quest Other information The Lonely Tree can be spotted in the distance while exploring the Whispering Steppes. A HP/MP healing pad can be discovered near an abandoned tent while exploring the Whispering Steppes. Pop-up headlines during the quest, added on June 28th, 2019: quote: Landing Click the left rock A curious, hollowed out rock. It makes the weirdest sounds, you've never heard anything quite like it before. It must be the wind passing through it. Click the "elephant" A humongous creature is eating the tall golden grass in the distance. You've never seen a creature like this before! Let's hope it's one of those "gentle giant" animals. It must eat a lot of grass to stay this size. Click the right rock A curious, hollowed out rock. It makes the weirdest sounds, you've never heard something quite like it before. It must be the wind passing through it. Landing -> Up -> Up Left Click the rock The closer you get to this monolith-like rock, the more unnerved you get. It makes your entire body resonate due to the sound it makes. You can only describe the sounds as "loud whispers". Click the tree What an incredibly large tree! Now that you look at it, you realize that there are no other trees in sight except for this one. It must feel lonely. Landing -> Up -> Up Right Click the left rock Another singing rock. You wonder who made those. Are they even man-made? Maybe the winds that are present here hollowed them out? Click the waterfall This liquid looks like honey. You put your hand in it. It's not honey. It just has this color. You give it a taste. It's just water. That's disappointing. Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> Right Click the waterfall Oh look, it's the disappointing water again. Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> Right -> Up Right Click the central rocks It's really uncomfortable, being this close to these rocks. You decide to be on your way. Except... you are really drawn to them, for some reason. Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> 2 Right Click the central rock Hey, this rock is giving out a different sound. Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> 2 Right -> Up Left Click the tent An abandoned tent. Dove told you that multiple nomad tribes wander these steppes, maybe it belongs to one of them? Whatever the reason, better not dwell on it while this huge beast looms over you... Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> 2 Right -> Up Right Click the "elephant" It's another one of those... what should you call them? It looks like a big, fat horse with a long nose and... tusks? Tusks! It must be some sort of a deformed walrus! That's it! It's a land walrus! You ponder whether those are related to Tuskers, from the Northlands. You write in your journal that you've sighted a "land walrus" today. Landing -> Up -> Up Right -> 2 Right -> Up Right -> Up Click the building This must be the monastery! Looks fine from the outside. Maybe it's not THAT derelict... Dove went ahead, better join him. During battle Click the central rock What are you doing? Don't admire the view during battles! Focus!!
