Chapter 9
Santhari
Mathew found himself following behind the robed figure. The rest of the dinner had been quiet at the table. Any further questions that he asked where left unanswered until he was instructed by Leader Niona to go with the man to her left, who she named as Trimen. He called forward to the man asking,"And what is it that you do here?"
"Each of the advisers with Niona are a Head teacher. Each one specializes in a single field. It used to be that a head would have several teachers below them to teach students, but since the lacking amount of students less and less teachers were needed."
"And what do you teach," asked Mathew.
"I am the head of magic. I am the last remaining magician in the city. There are some left at the wizard's tower but they refuse to send any as help", replied the wizard.
Mathew started to ask a question but before he could the wizard said,"The first thing you need to understand is about your dragon. I do not know much but there is a bond between you and your dragon. I believe I have a book in my room that could explain a little about the bond but I believe it is a rare bond. I do know a little about dragons though. Dragons are very proud creatures. They are social only with other dragons and do not like to spend time with any creature that they believe weaker, which as they see it is most creatures. As you can imagine this makes it difficult for the bond that you have to be created. Other then that I know that dragons are creatures of powerful magic, all though most can not use it."
Mathew getting excited blurted out,"Does this mean that I can use magic now"
Laughing the wizard replied,"No, if you can use magic then it is because you have the gift. The magic of the dragon can not be moved to you. At this moment this is not important"
The wizard stopped at a door and waved his hand, the door opening in response.

The wizard entered the room and started lifting books that were strewn all over the room. The books covered everything but Trimen quickly grabbed one and started to flip through them. As he read he said,"It is recorded that this has only happened once in the last three-hundred years. It is believed that the bond can only be created when a dragon is in great need of protection, because dragons would rather die then except help at an older age it is believed this bond can only be made when a dragon is a child. The last man to be bonded to a dragon wrote that this bond caused him to be constantly aware of his dragon and able to communicate with it."
Mathew looked up from a random book and said,"That reminds me, I need to name this dragon. I can't keep thinking of it as the dragon. Do you know any good names for a dragon?" The wizard started to bust out laughing. When he stopped wheezing he said,"Your dragon already has a name. They have a name when they first are hatched from the egg. You only have to ask it what its name is."
Confused Mathew asked,"How can I ask it what its name is? It can't not speak much less understand me."
The wizard replied saying,"One dragons are extremely intelligent creatures and can understand our whole conversation."
Mathew looked over to the dragon to see it glaring at him and he took a few steps away from it.
The wizard continued,"It has not spoken to you yet? You don't have the headaches."
"I have had a headache for the last five days", responded Matehw. "That is the dragon trying to enter your mind to speak with you. While the bond makes it where your two minds will always be connected, you can dull the dragons ability to read your mind and for it to speak to you", said teh wizard.
"And how do I allow this dragon to speak to me", asked Mathew doubting the wizard.
In an obvious tone the wizard replied,"Relax and picture a closed door. When you can see the door open it."

Minor mistakes here and there (I think you mean 'robed' not 'robbed' and 'quiet' not 'quit' and there are a few other things throughout the chapter)...you should probably proofread the chapter after you post it.
But that was a cute chapter! ^_^ I want a baby dragon now...
