The Story
Your village's elders served a dragon you do not name. You learned its language before you learned to read. You left at fifteen, with a knife and a scar and a folded robe you have not burned. You know more about dragons than is comfortable. You also know less about ordinary life than is convenient. People sometimes notice both.
What This Means in Play
