Is it snark if you're a dragon?Nico is rudely ejected from his home by murderous adventurers. He was only a young dragon, at fifty, and barely beyond his adolescence. Of his entire clutch, only he and one sister remained but now he is alone.While fleeing, his magic activates and creates a connection between himand a fearless young woman, who watched as he crushed the knightssent to drive him away from her father's cattle herd. In the process he ends up taking on a human form to hide from the adventurers who are still pursuing him. The irony being that once those adventurers discover his magical ability, they insist he attend the Imperial Academy as required of all with magical ability. Of course, he has to hide his true nature, which isn't always easy,given a dragon sized ego. This is a litrpg story complete with levels, classes, stats, gear,spells and skills, and some limited quests. The stats mean something for the development of the character but full statsheets are only repeated in their own chapters after there havebeen changes. You could enjoy the story without the statsbut I believe they add to it. There is some romance which will be handled slowly. Thisoccurs between multiple characters but is NOT harem in anyway, nor will it be poly. There will simply be more than one couplein the story, each working through romances in their own way.I included the gore tag because there is some significant violence but I don't believe it is particularly bloody. The storyis told from the first person perspective of Nico, but there are a number of interludes which tell the story from Cami's perspectivebut in 3rd person. She could be considered the second main character.My goal is to post several chapters in rapid succession and then a chapter every day M-F.The chapters will vary in length between 1800-4000 words as the storydictates. Most will be between 2000-2500 words. The prologue is shorter.
