The Foundling
A very short story
Some dragons, have the
ability to change their shape, or rather create a pocket dimension inside of a
human skin. A few of the older dragons can grow a human skin based on their
long experiences with the species, some can create human dolls that they can
see and act through while retaining their original shape. However, the youngest
dragons can achieve the result by animating a corpse or stealing its skin if
they have learned either art from one of their caretakers. In rare cases, a
young unlearned dragon may achieve the result by stealing the mind of an
impressionable human being. However, the dragon may then forget that it is a
dragon and believe itself to be human as their true body hibernates.
Note: Written in two hours and unrefined but comments and critique are still welcome.
