Our whole deal, I’m not sure if anyone’s explained, Montague, is we’re like the bloodlines of Echidna, or Minos of Crete, or Jormungandr. Sometimes you get a girl who has snakes instead of bodily fluids, sometimes you have a boy with sapphire skin who kills anyone who hears his voice, and sometimes that egg hatches and you have two dragons sharing one mind. Mom found knotted places for them to reside, so you can only find them if you go looking.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2021/03/23 Excerpt] from [[Shaking Hands 9.z]]</ref> *Candy Dragon<ref>Discussion Question: A witch prepared her gingerbread house as a lure to entrap children, arranging magics in the form of candy that the children would eat until they were too lethargic and weighed down to move. She secured it further, ironically, by being on the local PTA and managing a campaign about the dangers of sugar- this served as a warning and made the sugar-starved youth all that much more wide-eyed at the nature of the candy house. Not very original, but the classics are classics for a reason.<br><br>She dressed it up with a bit of panache and a streak of cruelty, so the kids with stomachs distended from the sugary treats they'd eaten would be gradually swallowed up by the ground and dragged into the cellars of the house, where they would be candied. Each child became the source of production for a special custom treat- a cookie, a chocolate, a candy, or something in that vein. One jerk of a kid became black licorice, even, but maybe that was a blessing.<br><br>Every bite taken out of the candy was felt by the child who'd created that candy, and so they were cursed, trapped below, told they would only escape if someone else ate every last bite of their particular candy on the premises. That person would be their soulmate, with a 'taste' for them in particular and they'd run off free and happy. Or free and rather traumatized, but hey. Things generally didn't get that far- incoming victims would inevitably want to try the next amazing treat.<br><br>Enter Bernhard. This little boy had met a mean-spirited goblin years ago, who had given him a magic. He could eat anything. So he won his pie eating contest and he could eat his aunt's awful cooking, and that seemed well and good, except there was a catch. He had to eat everything offered to him. You can imagine what the goblin fed to him after that. But he eventually won with a trick of words, ate the goblin and carried on for a few years, until he found the aforementioned candy house.<br><br>That on its own wouldn't be enough, but the witch had to be away for a few months to look after a sick relative, and she'd rigged things to manage themselves, infinitely (or effectively infinitely) replenishing candy. She'd even asked local powers to look after her place and make sure things kept running.<br><br>So the boy who could eat anything ate everything and everything was functionally infinite. By the time anyone realized what was happening, things were in a pretty bad way. They couldn't get in contact with the witch, Bernhard became a hefty little dragon egg, a knot of infinite loops, patterns, and established recursions.<br><br>And that's how the powers of that region got forsworn, the witch came back to find a dragon wedged into her little pocket world with what had been a candy house, and the candy-cursed children who were trapped got free when the dragon dug for and ate all the candy in one swallow. They didn't get their soulmates, but they didn't really complain. They fed the witch to the dragon, and hung around for a while, keeping the dragon company for a bit, until the magic sustaining them eventually crumbled.<br><br>Bernhard is more or less gone. There's only a candy dragon now. He grows, bit by bit, and strains the boundaries of the pocket world, and who knows what will happen when those walls shatter? Nobody knows where he is, nobody listens to the forsworn who were supposed to care for the space, and so nobody has warded it or secured the borders. One day it will go free and nobody will really have any idea how it happened. - Wildbow [https://redd.it/1196qxb on Reddit]</ref> {{Reflist}} [[Category:Others]] [[Category:Natural Others]] [[Category:Type]] [[Category:Knot]]
