Hatching in Equestria as a Silver Dragon

Soft Hoof explained to the university chancellor about the foreign visitors, how they were mother and son, and how both were sapient, one unable to speak, but she could clearly understand equestrian, the explanation was satisfactory and as long as they behaved, they would have no trouble from the staff, chancellor Decisive Note assured her, the older stallion was strict until you got to know him, he was a kind only pony who loved science but had a talent for administrative work, so he worked hard to be the head of the university, the only Biology institution of higher education on this side of the world.

After that was taken care of, Soft had to reunite with the expeditionary group at the castle, and together they had to explain what they accomplished in detail to the commissioner, who of course was the princess herself, Soft was slightly nervous if she was honest with herself, the expedition had been a success in the scientific aspect, but they had not found a single thing in the economic aspect, just endless forests, prairies and then the mountains, which they couldn't just venture into, the beings they found would probably have to be studied and maybe another expedition to find the wolf tribe, which was most likely a tribe, would have to be formed.

The walk to the castle happened fairly quickly while she was busy with her thoughts, she had her notes and she was sure, she would stand up for the unlikely pair, they were good creatures, she could tell they had a hard time surviving out by themselves, there was a certain air of sadness to them when they weren't playing or giving each other affection, she was observant and didn't miss the time that the hatchling was just staring at a game of cards and then became misty eyed and a painful expression took over, he went to his mom and cried silently against her side.

It must be though, living alone in the wild, even going hungry and for the little one, maybe he had lost his biological parents and had trauma regarding that...

Without realizing, she had arrived to the castle entrance, where two guards stood watch.

"State your business" they said in unison in a neutral voice.

"Soft Hoof, biology specialist of the expeditionary team, here to join the rest for the report" One guard seemed to nod at that, and they let her pass. A few meters inside another guard joined her and escorted her to the lobby, where many ponies were standing around, chatting amongst themselves, her expeditionary group was to one side and when some turned to look at the newcomer, they smiled and waved at her, she was left with them and the guard went back to his post.

"Hiya Soft, hope your guests are settling in well, soon the princess will see us, you made it just in time, not that we would have been able to go in without you." Azure Spark greeted and explained, she was not a true captain, but the captain of the expedition, and since the expedition was over, she went back to being a regular lieutenant, but if things went well, she could earn a promotion from the expedition.

A door to a side room opened and a guard waved them towards it "Expedition group, come this way please" the mare exclaimed calmly.

"And... That's our queue, come on everypony" they all followed the unicorn, heading into a hallway
The carpet was luxurious and the decorations were beautiful art, statues and flowers. After a bit of a walk they reached a conference room, where the princess stood, once they all walked in, they bowed deeply.

"Rise, my little ponies, and come take a seat around the table." As she said this, she led by example and sat down on the chair made for her which was bigger and wider to accommodate her big cake loving rear. Everyone followed her example and all were seated soon.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate you on returning safe and sound, an expedition outside Equestria is never easy, or safe, even having guards is not a warrantee of safety my little ponies, the fact you returned brings me great joy" she smiled kindly and everyone nodded in agreement.

"Thank you princess, that is true and when you're ready, Soft Hoof gas made a report to you detailing our curious discovery" Azure answered politely.

"Soft Hoof... So this means you found a new species perhaps? I'm really interested in hearing about it professor." The princess said in a curious tone, encouraging the professor to give her report.

"Yes your highness, you see, we have found a pair of creatures most perplexing, one of which I'm sure is a newly discovered sapient species, and the other is a very unique looking dragon, at first we couldn't believe what we were seeing, a dragon and a giant wolf the size of a large stallion, seemingly acting like a mare and her foal, but then we interacted more, I will read you the detailed report now, or if you would prefer, I can let you read it yourself. This report has every other expedition pony as witness." The princess was giving her full attention now, ears perked in interest and curiosity.

"Please let me read the report myself, I am going to ask anything I may need clarification in, thank you for this, it may be a great discovery." Soft Hoof nodded and handed her the stack of notes, hoping the princess find it satisfactory, which a golden aura enveloped and lifted to her eye height, she began to read, and everything was quiet for several minutes.

The princess eyebrows arched and her mouth opened a few times, she smiled and had a soft and kind expression at other times, she ended up nodding and placing the notes on the table.

"My little ponies, I consider this a successful expedition, in the scientific sense at least, the economic sense may have to wait until we find the tribe this black wolf is part of, and I may need to have an interview with her at some point soon, while she can not speak I have a way to speak to her magically, I find the appearance of a dragon so far north very intriguing and confusing, dragons usually stay near their lava pools and volcanos, they love to soak in the molten stone, and a dragon so far north and so young would probably not survive on its own because of the extreme cold." The princess stopped herself before she could go into tangents, knowing her little ponies were tired and didn't have time to rest and relax after their trip. "You will all have 80 thousand bits deposited in your bank accounts by this time tomorrow as payment, and your names will be recognized in your fields, specially you Soft Hoof, I will now head to attend day court, thank you all for your effort and... You're dismissed, have a wonderful rest of your day!" With that, she stood up and left the room, followed by the other ponies, some hugged each other and left, others stayed to make conversation, Soft Hoof headed to her home after saying goodbye and giving her well wishes to everypony.

Traveling was tiresome for all, not too much but it made sleeping extra enjoyable, both Sylf and her son Onyx slept through the day and into early morning of the next, This time the wolf awoke first and shook her scaly son awake, he mumbled something first but then opened his eyes, blinking and looked at her, she gestured at him to get up.

'Move a bit my precious Onyx, I really have to use the bathroom!' I giggled and moved aside, getting up himself, as Sylf rushed to the bathroom, closing the door behind, i waited until she was out and then also relieved myself, then washed my face and brushed my teeth with a brush someone left in the bathroom, it was better than nothing, which was what I was doing before, once I was out, mom was stretching and yawning which was honestly both cute and funny.

'Mooom you know we have to do something about the gigantic monster spider that is in the inventory? It's occupying almost all of it, do you mind if I go to the empty dungeon and toss the body out, loot it, and come back? I already transfered all my items to your inventory so I can get the loot from it, even tho I think that isn't necessary, because the heavy things automatically go to your inventory...' And mom did not like it, she got a bit pale when I mentioned the spider and the dungeon.

'Son... What happened there, it made me feel broken, I still feel apprehension at the thought of you going there but right now I couldn't go, so yes even tho I hate the thought of you going there and something nasty attacking you, I trust you, you say it's empty of enemies right?.' I nodded.

'Yes mom if it wasn't empty, we wouldn't have been able to escape, it would have not been completed, now... I'll head into the bathroom, in case someone comes looking for us, just tell them I am in the bathroom and to not go in, I wont take more than five minutes.' She nodded and gave me a loving nuzzle, which I of course returned eagerly.

'Just... Stay safe son, I will be waiting for you and if you don't come back in 10, I will head in myself to look for you!'. I agreed with her and headed in the bathroom, closing the door behind me, where I opened the menu and the dungeon section, then clicked on it and selected 'visit'. A second later I teleported there, it didn't feel as jarring as the first time and the ominous sense of dread and danger had disappeared, it felt peaceful now, I moved to the outside of the temple, and walked towards the forest, in a corner of it I opened the inventory and selected the corpse of the Broodmother, clicked on drop, and the corpse appeared and crushed some bushes, i winced at the disgusting smell but shook my head, no time to focus on that, I closed the menu and approached the spider, intending to loot it, and touched it with a claw, it broke apart and I the loot flowed into my inventory, a level 20 steel dagger with poison damage, not bad, I needed to see if I could use it, the design was very beautiful, the handle was black stained wood, the guard was what seemed gold plated and had a spiral pattern, the pommel was gold plated too and had the shape of a coin with a human skull design, the sheath was black stained leather with a small strap.

I also obtained 500gp, a large electric gem, and a set of leather armor and saddlebag staining kit, it included 7 colors which was honestly amazing, I smiled and opened the menu, heading back to the material plane, now teleporting didn't feel as horrible and I felt like a huge weight has lifted from... Our inventory, I can forget about that monster and move on, now I am in Equestria, and I can colour mom's saddlebags when I'm bored, maybe a rainbow theme would go great with her black fur?

While checking through my menu, I realized I didn't have selected my second cantrip from the spell sniper feat, and I went with firebolt, who knew when I would need to set something on fire, and it would be perfect for when a spider got near me, I could burn the house down! But seriously, fire was... A very good element to have, even a weak cantrip would make a difference in a battle.

I opened the door and casually walked out, mom was laying in bed comfortably and looked at me with a smile, which I returned and ran towards her and started petting her head after climbing on the bed

'Oh mom... You're so adorable and kind! Who's a good mommy? Huh? Do you want a treat?' I playfully asked while pulling out a frozen slice of fish, and petting her between the ears, her tail wagged in excitement despite her offended expression.

'Onyx! You know I'm not a silly puppy like you, right? But... Hmphf... I am a good momma, and yes I do want a treat, it's been a week since I last ate meat and I'm starving!' She announced with a whine, she was acting like a pampered puppy, and she gladly ate the frozen fish, easily chewing into it and not bothered by the cold, I smiled and pet her while she devoured her food, pulling one out and starting to eat as well, I was just as hungry as her, and despite my young age, I needed a lot of food, I finished my slice a few minutes later and we both decided to head outside, after a quick mouth rinse to get the fish flavor out.

As we went out, a few ponies waved at us and continued with their work, some were professors heading to their clases, others were cleaning staff and all of them politely nodded and waved as we waved at them, as we headed down the stairs we saw a lot of ponies walking about, and many stares turned out way, most filled with curiosity but some had fearful expressions as well, I simply waved and smiled and that seemed to calm the fearful ones, specially when Sylf sat on her haunches and nuzzled me, she seemed to get the idea that acting more like a puppy and less like the imposing wolf she was, would earn us sympathy.

We headed towards the main hallway and followed it, there was a sign with an artistic rendition of a plate of salad, I assumed it was the cantina, it was to the side and further in front of us it seemed to open up, there were many other corridors probably heading to different classrooms and auditoriums, I thought about going to the cantina, but we had no bits, and they probably wouldn't want to give us free food, so we headed towards the back exit, which led to a enclosed park, there was a large pond with an artificial small waterfall, where turtles and fish of various types swam about, there were many very tall and large trees dotted around in different areas which were separated by stone slab pathways , many bushes, flower patches, and different grasses in each little "biome" which attracted a variety of small animals, butterflies, bumblebees and other pollinators, ponies were walking around, some tending to the plants, others seemingly studying some insects or flowers, the song of birds was plentiful and beautiful, some ponies were also sitting on the wooden benches dotted across the botanical garden, cuddling or just sitting and relaxing, enjoying the pleasant scent of flowers, some were reading books, and some where even getting a bit romantic.

I was curious about the pond, where the turtles were, they seemed to be basking in the morning sun, warming up their bodies, I playfully poked one, it turned around and when it saw me, it seemed to let out a small, silent yelp, then ran quickly and dove underwater, splashing around a bit, the other turtles didn't pay any mind to it, I giggled and decided to just look at them, I remember seeing this same turtles back when I was human, at a pond I visited some years back.
Mom was behind me, always protecting me while also amusing herself with my antics.

I ran and headed for the stone path, following along it to see how long it was, mom walked behind me at a speedy pace, easily keeping up with me thanks to her long legs, the ponies in the path were a bit scared when they saw a wolf a head taller than them briskly walk right next past them, chasing after a baby dragon, but once the shock passed, they seemed mostly curious, everyone here was a biology student, and seeing a large wolf they never read about or heard off following an unusually colored dragon was like the most interesting thing they had stumbled upon all day, many gathered to talk about the very odd pair, some even went to ask their professors, eventually a group of students approached the dragon, who had seemingly gotten tired of running and was just trying to climb a tree now.

"Hello little one, are you having fun?." A yellow earth pony stallion asked as he sat down in front of the hatchling, who had somehow succeeded on grabbing onto the trunk of the tree and was off the ground, the student had a group of about 5 mares close behind him, watching curiously and waiting for an answer.

"Yeeess I cliiimb, look momma!". The students aren't sure who is he referring to until she looms over them, the large intimidating size and color makes the ponies pale slightly, but once she just smiles at them, they calm down somewhat biology couldn't explain why this hatchling called the oversized wolf his mom, but they were friendly, so the stallion and his group stayed, just backed away a bit and relaxed as the wolf just stood behind the little one and gently helped him climb my pushing from the back, and that worked wonders, his claws helping him push.

"Thank mamma, uppies now?" She approaches and grabs the dragon with her maw around his back, lifted him up and places him on her back, and he relaxes, spreading his legs, all the running around seem to have sapped the poor foal's energy, the earth pony thought.

"B-big wolf lady, can you talk? The pony asks, she shakes her head no, this seems to sadden the stallion and he sighs.

"Are you the foreign guests that professor Soft Hoof said were staying over? It's good to meet you!" He greeted with a smile. "My name is Banana Cream and this ponies behind me are my herd, I study here because I am fascinated by animal life, and you are very fascinating, both of you, I can see why professor Soft let you stay here, maybe you will allow us to learn more about you on the lab?."

'Say no mom, I am still too young to protect myself if they see something in me they deem dangerous, You are also not strong enough to fight out of a city while keeping me safe, let's just pretend we are scared of tests, I'm unsure which kind of testing they will do on us, and I don't want to give them too much information.'

'I agree Onyx, we should keep a low profile for now, as nice as this pony seems, we don't know what kind of tests he has in mind...'

Sylf shook her head at the pony's offer after seemingly quite a bit of internal debate, this made the pony look sad and disappointed, but he understood.

"Its okay, the test were going to be non invasive, but you are within your right to refuse anyone asking, you are sapient clearly, trying to force you into a procedure you don't want is a severe crime here." Sylf seemed calmer at the words, and smiled a bit at the pony, trying to cheer him up about this, and it kind of worked, while the pony was not as excited, he smiled politely, and along with his group, they left.

'Mom... We have to find a way to solve the issue of communication, really soon, it's very annoying to speak like a toddler, and while I can use telepathy, you cannot! This really is going to slow us down a lot, we can't even explain ourselves if someone thinks you're a wild wolf let loose! No offense meant mom, but you are a wolf, and ponies are prey species by nature...' Mom nodded in understanding, thankfully for us, or if you want to be pessimistic, unfortunately, a pony in royal guard armor came towards us, carrying a scroll held in... her? Telekinesis hold, she cleared her throat, and announced, to us.

"Greetings guests, who have been brought here by Soft Hoof, I am Corporal Flash Beam, from her majesty's Royal Guard, and I have here a summons from Princess Celestia herself to meet with both of you, on the present day, you are to be transported to the royal palace, you are free to reject the offer, but doing so is not recommended. The letter reads: I Princess Celestia of Equestria, graciously invite in the present day, the unnamed guests from the edge of the frozen north expedition to share an afternoon together with me at the palace's dinner hall, where we can have tea, snacks and a wonderful conversation. Best regards Princess Celestia."

I sighed, knowing that sooner or later this would happen, expecting the princess to not know what happens on her capital city is foolish.

'We have no choice mom, we're gonna have to nod and follow her to the castle, maybe the princess will help you find a way to speak to other ponies?'

"Well, do you accept?" She asked looking at Sylf in the eyes, to which she nodded, and the guard turned around and we followed, I was comfortable on top of mom, but attentive to our environments, we headed outside the university, the streets were beautiful, they resembled European architecture, some houses were modest dark wood and pastel pinks, other were more luxurious painted white and with purple roofs, with lots of arches and rounded corners, tall windows and doors, made to look like sculptures, there were many cafes and restaurants that had served tables on the side of the street, similar to France.

The city was quite vertical, we walked up stairs often, the houses were more and more luxurious as we climbed up the mountain, tall towers of white marble with gold or purple roofs signaled the approach to the castle, the roofs of this towers had swirl patterns or spirals, and many had balcones and spires that ended in a gold decorative figure at the tip, usually a pony of some sort, the city didn't lack in plants either, having plenty of small plant pots in almost every house, or having some trees planted on the side of the road for shade, sometimes small parks were in corners where streets crossed, we ended up climbing about 6 sets of stairs to reach the castle, and we were just at the bottom, but my trusted steed didn't falter, seems like mom has pretty good stamina, I probably do too, Im just lazy, and supposed to be a baby so I stay on her back.

The whole way no one started conversation, since I was a toddler and mom was mute, I would ocasionally say things like "Soo pretty!" Or "wooow" and I wasn't feigning any of it, I was actually in awe at the beauty and splendor of this city, it made Paris or any other European city look like the ghetto, this was, pure, unadulterated and undiluted luxury, buildings made partially of gold, statues of silver and gold, the height of the palace and the shaped and colorful banners that hung from it, it's like if the United States spent all the money they do on their military each year, on building and maintaining 1 beautiful city, with the best sense of beauty, not gray and lifeless skyscrapers, but towers of marble and gold that made this place feel more like a dream than reality.

'Its beautiful, isn't it?' Sylf said in wonder in my mind.

'I wholeheartedly agree mom, its the pinnacle of excess, but it was excess with class. I aspired to be rich enough one day to live in one of those towers, and feel like a wizard of legend! Wouldn't it be awesome? This must be what the princess feels like, in her alabaster tower at the castle.' we both were in open mouthed awe as we headed for one of the many of the castle's entrances, a guard Immediately let us in, after seeing the seal on the letter we were shown earlier, if the exterior of the palace was beautiful the interior was a step above that, pristine clean, the walls were decorated with tasteful art of distant landscapes, cities, ponies, animals and nature, there were statues of white marble in every corner of the room, there were crystal lanterns lining the walls that used magical light that was warm and inviting, the floor had red carpet that was very soft and velvety on my claws, with patterns of roses and leaves embroided in gold thread, there were also decorations of distant cultures, like middle eastern style carpets on the walls in places, and banners of silk on the roof that gave even the hallways an ethereal aura, royal purple and gold were the main themes for this silks.

Eventually after more walking and more marble stairs, we reached a large banquet hall, with windows made of stained glass, seemingly depicting a story of some kind, I was looking around still gaping like a fish out of water, same as Sylf, when the guard guiding us whispered rather loudly, pulling the both of us out of our own little world, we looked towards the front, where the guard was bowing to, and I could tell, by our mental link, both of us had to pick our jaws out of the floor, as we stared wide eyed at the largest pony we have ever seen, this was princess Celestia that I had been told so much about, and she was a head taller than mom!

She walked towards us, I couldn't help but stare in wonder, at her multicolor mane that hovered from excess magical energy, it was ethereal too, it seemed like magic radiated out of her like the sun, the magic was warm like morning sunlight, and there was an aura of power and pressure around her, but it was suppressed, I mentally used 'inspect'

'Target is unable to be inspected, target level difference is too high to read, target approximate level 500, with a margin of error of 250 levels.'

I after that, I immediately bowed, my movement made Sylf stop gaping and bow as well, this caused the princess to laugh softly, she was just staring back at us in curiosity until we decided to bow.

"Raise my little pony, and kind guests, you are welcome to take a seat, I'm honestly in much awe of you as you two are of me, even if it doesn't appear so, I can't wait to talk you more, please come take a seat next to me, I promise it will be fine, now, dear guards, bring a booster chair for the little one, he has right to sit at the table too." The guard Immediately left and came back a few minutes later with a booster seat for me, while mom was already seated right next to the princess, mom was nervous but she tried to look polite and not look away too much, the princess however wasn't blind.

"It's such a shame that you can't talk, I would like to get to know your name, miss wolf, I have a way to talk to you, but it will feel somewhat strange at first, I can use telepathy, and I can talk to both of you at once, and you can both talk to me as well, this does not let me read your mind or anything, it's just communicates what you intend to say out loud, to me directly, I'm this case to both of us, nod if you consent to the spell." Sylf nodded, Celestia's horn lit up in a golden aura, both of us heard her voice in our minds now.

'testing, testing, Celestia to wolf and dragon, do you hear me?' I laughed out loud at that, making the princess smile, Sylf also smiled.

'I hear you princess Celestia, I'm sorry for not being able to talk, my neck doesn't produce noises the same as neither of you, none of my species does, we talk using our body and our scent, by the way princess, my name is Sylf'

'And my name is Onyx, pretty princess!' I exclaimed cheerfully with my mind, making Sylf' laugh and the princess raise an eyebrow in curiosity.

'Curious, Sylf and Onyx, what an interesting and unlikely pair you two are, also Onyx, your voice sounds very clear, you must be a really smart little dragon hmm?' Celestia said while smiling at me, I blushed and rubbed my neck.

'I... I have been always been able to use telepathy too, princess, that is how I met mom, she saved me, and helped me grow and learn to speak, our minds are connected, when I came out of my egg, I cried, but my voice didn't reach far, but I cried with my mind, and when I went outside to find food and water, mom found me as I was falling asleep, she took care of me every since, she protects me, and teaches me to speak, i know... words thanks to her, she also taught me how to catch fish and prepare them to eat, I love her so much!' I hugged mom tightly around her chest, nuzzling and softly purring, it was something apparently my throat could do when i was happy.

'My son, little Onyx, is everything to me, I would do anything to keep him safe' Sylf nuzzled me back lovingly.

'You are really unique, little Onyx, I have never heard of a single dragon who could use telepathy, and very rarely they can use magic at all other than their breath, but it can happen, sometimes ponies are born with a innate talent for something, sometimes that something is incredible, like what you posses, I suspect that your egg may have been stolen, abandoned or something like that, its again, very rare but it does happen, lady Sylf, your son is a prodigy, he looks very young and already has the mental ability to speak, I will give you and him the chance to live in this city, and for him to get an education, but you must work for me, I can see you would make a fine royal guard, in exchange, you two will have housing, and a large salary for yourself lady Sylf, accept this and you will help warrantee your son an educated and prosperous future in the best schools in the nation.' I thought about this, it was a seriously good offer, the princess has already probably deduced that Sylf has great potential as a royal guard, it's not hard to see how strong she is under her armor, and she probably knows I have great potential as well, so she is hoping have me raised in this city with the best available education, and for me to become loyal as I grow, but she didn't know I was already an adult mentally, I was only loyal to myself and Sylf, yet, the offer of a formal education was too good to pass up, I nodded, but mom was already nodding too, seems we both came to the same conclusion.

'I accept, princess, I will work for you as your guard, I will fight for you if it means my son will have a bright future ahead of himself, I'm sure I will not disappoint you!' Sylf said with conviction, the princess smiled warmly and nodded.

'I can already tell, you are strong and you'll only get stronger with the training you will have to go though to join, you will have short shifts until your son is old enough to look after himself, which with how smart he is, probably will be by his 15th or 16th birthday, he looks about half a year old, so let's say that's his official age, I only need an approximate month and then I can have his official birthday be on a day that is convenient for you, like right before a weekend so you have an extra free day.' This made the princess laugh at her own joke, but i just smiled, not wanting to show i got the joke, since a toddler would have no concept of how good an extra day free from work felt.

'thank you princess! You are very kind and pretty, thank you!' I said smiling, wishing I could nuzzle the princess, but even if my adorableness worked on others, I think me and princess Celestia weren't close enough yet for that, plus with her level, maybe my charisma didn't reach her?

'Youre welcome young Onyx, you and your mom will be given a vacant room in the castle until your house in the city is picked, there are many houses that are vacant, the prices here are high, and so are taxes, but... Royal guard don't pay taxes on their houses, unless they own more than one of course.'
She had a sweet smile on her face, the carrot she dangled for us had been too juicy to pass up indeed, even if it meant we were indebted to her somewhat, at least we wouldn't be in the same palace under her guard's watch constantly, so a win in my book.

After that the conversation switched mostly to our preferences, what we thought of the city, she told us a bit about the interesting places to visit across the city, the museums, the parks, several stores that has anything and everything, there was even an amusement park and a cinema, which was, supposedly the first of its class in Equestria, not to mention fancy restaurants, tea places (apparently coffee has not been discovered yet) while she explained the maids brought in the food, many pastries, tea, milk and other drinks, I ended up having a mixed fruit juice, and ate about 6 different pastries, mom had the milk, with fruits and 3 pastries which she really liked, and I honestly was a bit... Envious of whoever has made this pastries, they were better than what I used to make as a human, but despite that I really enjoyed myself, Celestia gave us a map of the city, and before we left, she had a collar brought to the room, and offered it to Sylf.
It was a collar with a magically enchanted gem, the gem allowed mom to speak her thoughts into it and synthesized a recreation of her mental voice with sound, making it speak for her, it was able to determine the volume of her mental voice to the point it could even yell if she wanted, and it would only work when she wanted to actually say something out loud.

'Thank you so much princess! And it looks so cute too!' I exclaimed and she giggled, the fact it looked like a dog collar may have been a coincidence but it was a funny one, i made effort not to giggle too, and Sylf smiled totally unaware.

'Youre welcome, it's only natural that I want my future guard to be able to answer and talk, it's not easy to be a guard if you're mute, so we have designed enchantment to help mute ponies who want to become part of the guard, go ahead Sylf, use it.'

"H-hello? Oh, oh wow! It feels really weird to hear my own thoughts out loud, you are very kind princess! Thank you so much, now I can go outside without fear of being unable to talk to ponies, I will need to get used to this, but... It works perfectly!.' Sylf had the same voice she had in my mind, but out loud, it was lovely to hear her now she could be a more assertive mom in public, which would help my image as a baby dragon much better...

After that we said goodbye and were escorted to a guest room, with a single large bed, the interior was very well decorated and luxurious without being too much, it felt minimalist and had lots of wood which looked wonderful, we just decided to end the day early, and relieved ourselves taking turns, then showered together and finally went to sleep.
