Bowen

What does a dragon know of the Old Code, anyway?

Draco

His blade defends the helpless. His might upholds the weak. His word speaks only truth.

Bowen

Shut up. I remember. That's all it is, a memory. Nothing can bring it back.

Draco

You sound like one who tried.

Bowen

And failed. So I no longer try to change the world, dragon, I just try to get by in it.

Draco

Yes, well, it's better than death, I suppose.

Bowen

Oh, is it? I should think you'd welcome death. You know, the last of your kind, all your friends dead, hunted wherever you go...

Draco

Do you delight in reminding me? Yes, knight, I do long for death... but fear it.

Bowen

Why? Aside from your misery, what's to lose?

Draco

My soul.
