It's no secret there are other signs of life within and beyond Equestria, still tied down to the planet yet not to their lifestyles or processing; nevertheless, even those species in question had their own way of doing things here and there, something they can all relate to: of them, dragons are the most mysterious of the bunch due to having a checkered history, with and without the ponies alone.

Knuckerbocker himself is no exception to that rule at all, having lived in the Isles of Scaly for who knows how long, not that anyone would have the patience to care for; of course, that was just perfect for a dragon like for they shun fancy things like proximity for example, a trait ponies happen to share far too often than not for one reason and/or another no less.

Speaking of which, his fortress of solitude will become a meeting place for an unexpected guest heading his way: a simple adventurer by the name of Daring Do, otherwise known to many as A. K. Yearling, also happens to harbor another secret unbeknownst to either of their species in question, not that it'd stop the turn of events from unfolding before themselves all the same.
