He flew through the Stone Fortress and emerged outside. It was good to feel his dragon wings carry him again, now that he was home in his own lands. The snow had melted and greenery was growing out on the mountainside.
He flew on. Below him in the valley, he saw the men of the village emerging from their homes. They took to the sky in dragon form. Some cheered from below and others flew around him in the sky. They joined him in flight, finally at peace with their prince after so many years of fighting.

Cora pushed Brighton’s stroller through the park-like garden she had created with her own two hands since her arrival on Galaton. Each new seedling she cultivated in the greenhouses, constructed for her by her husband, brought her a new sense of hope and happiness for the future of Galaton, her son, and her dear sweet husband. She sat on a bench, under a willow tree, beside her Magmus as they looked out on a small pool, covered in lily pads and lotus blossoms.
A Galatonian frog jumped from lily pad to lily pad and then plopped into the water. Brighton giggled at the creature while Cora grasped her husband’s hand and squeezed it warmly.
“These last months have been the best of my life,” Cora said, feeling the warm breeze blow over her cheeks. She wore a long flowing satin gown with intricate floral embroidery in gold silk thread.
Her own roses had grown strong from the root cuttings she’d brought with her from Earth. She had just cut the first flower and held it now in her hands. It was a pink rose called American Beauty. She dedicated it to her husband and her son in their new home.
“It’s hard to believe that it was such a short time ago that I left Earth at Christmas, and now here I am with you. We have a blooming garden here, full of a mix of Earth and Galaton. And we have our growing young son,” she said with a wistful smile.
“We brought peace to Galaton,” he said. “It is more than I could have ever hoped for. I have everything I’ve ever wanted as a man.”
“I had no idea how much I wanted this until I left Earth,” Cora said. “But now I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the universe. I’ve never been so happy or so fulfilled as I am now with you and our son.”
“I discover new levels of happiness every day, my beloved, and that is all because of you,” he said, kissing her head.
Cora and Magmus held hands as they watched Brighton crawl about on a blanket in the warm sunny grass. Cora’s tomatoes would soon be ripe, growing faster and stronger than they had ever done back in Missouri.
She knew that she had brought the heart of Earth with her to Galaton. With her half human, half dragon son, she and her husband would be at the heart of this new world. They were creating a future for both their races, for all that was good and true and right in the universe.
Cora and Magmus shared their strong mating bond as she handed him her beautiful pink rose. In that moment, she knew exactly what the meaning of life really was. It was love.
