Description

Vaeros is diligent, but whelps have a way of finding trouble. Not mine, of course--but I suppose not every dragon rears their clutch to understand the gravity of their station.

While I am loathe to encourage outdoor play over study, I will help you safeguard the garden more effectively. Take these seeds and plant them nearby. When mature, the blooms produce a fragrance that insects find disagreeable.

The gardeners can help you--and maybe my bronze brethren, if you mind your manners.
