Diplomatic disaster
Dragon Lord Ember's first voyage to Manechuria was quite the learning experience. She almost completely squandered the good relations between the Dragon Lands and this notoriously difficult to befriend empire. Her father, who had worked very hard to establish these relations, wasn't impressed.
Torch had drilled his daughter on Manechurian etiquette and told her to stay the Tartarus away from a...
Royally peeved
Jian takes a lot after her father, so much so that you wouldn't guess she has storm dragon blood coursing through her veins. But she sure does and if you anger her sufficiently, she'll show you!
Some dragons weren't sure what to make of the Dragon Lord's prim and demure Consort. Her mannerisms were even daintier than Blaze's! Surely the Dragon Lord was joking when she married this feeble, flower-smelling, lute-playing princess! Well, some dragons found out the hard way that she's no pu...

It's been over a year since Princess Twilight's coronation as the official ruler of Equestria. Smolder's gone home for the summer and Spike joined her to live with other dragons for a few months. Dragon Lord Emeritus Torch had suggested it would be wise for him to start spending more time with his own kind and Dragon Lord Ember agreed, offering to host Spike in her family's cave.
Spike was incredibly nervous at first. Torch was especially intimidating to him, despite how gentle the gia...
