Sleeping Dragon tell me is that déjà vu?

His head tilted upward when she revealed that she didn't know of the story, and the man wondered what they were teaching these kids if not the history of their people. He sat and used his muzzle to motion for her to do the same if she wished. "Before Drageda or even Trigeda, there was a place known as Seageda. The commander before Thuringwethil died in battle and soon after their death something known as the conclave began. Our Heda we now follow today was victorious and became our youngest commander yet." He paused to let her digest the information he had given her and left room for any questions she might have before beginning again.

"While many accepted Thur as our commander, there were those that had seeds of doubt sowed within them and began to corrupt the inner circle. Our leaders at the time sacrificed their lives to keep our secrets hidden from our enemies and it was then that our Heda left us to search for safer lands. Some of us felt abandoned, others felt anger, but despite our emotions the remainder of us pushed onward and soon joined up with what today is known as Trigeda." As his story came to a close, Tanja remembered that the girl's original question had actually been about why he had come down from Seageda in the first place. 

"To answer your question regarding why I left my home to come down here, well, the truth is it just didn't feel the same without Heda." It was a simple answer, but anyone that was strongly dedicated to their people would understand what it felt like to want be close to their leader.
