You chat to Thraxa as you drink. You tell her about Garthax and how the kid is definitely his and how much of a jerk he was in school.

She tells you about her life and how her normal form is 50 feet long which intimidates everyone, especially with her silver scales. She is actually a distant relative to the royal family which explains the metallic scales. You should have guessed.

All metallic dragons are nobility, the king and direct family are mostly gold except those that marry in and a few children that take after their mother. Silver makes her from the cousin line and then the other metal colors are more distant relatives. The gold princes and princesses tend to marry silver or bronze dragons from as distant as they can get to avoid complications but it keeps the gold genes in the gene pool. This makes it more likely for their children to be gold.

There was a scandal 300 years ago when the heir to the throne was born silver and ended up renouncing his claim when his gold brother was born. 900 years ago there was a civil war when the Bronze colored heir to the throne thought against his gold coloured wife who argued that scale colour and not gender should determine who rules. At that time although she won most of the battles she was never fully recognized as the first queen even to this day. It was their gold son who took the throne next.

This discussion allowed you to drink your the wine and whisky while taking your time. It was a lot stronger than you were used to but not unmanageable. "Well, it look like I've won." You replied to your speech slightly slurry now and you feel the buzz in your head.

"Well, I did finish the drinks you brought me as well, that's go clean these clothes." Thraxa replied.
