Jade Dragon---Writing Prompt #1 Who am I? (open)
Who am I? What an interesting question. I would have thought that to be such a simple question a few months ago, but now…
I'm not sure that anyone would believe me if I told them who I really was, or what I really was. Well anyone other than Casey. I told him and he seems to believe me.
I'm not from around here, and when I say around here, I mean this world. I'm not sure what my world would be considered in comparison to this one. Some sort of alternate reality, or maybe the fae realm or some other kind of otherworld. I don't know. I just called it home.
This is not home. But that doesn't answer your question does it? Who am I? I'm Jade, or that's what I call myself here anyway. Jade Dragon, since two names appear to be a requirement in this realm. It is fitting. I am a dragon or half-dragon rather.
Several moons ago I started having dreams of this place, your world. Casey's world. Then about what would be considered three months ago here I woke up in this world. I haven't been able to shift into my dragon form since arriving in this world and I have no idea how to get home either.
Here I look like a young woman in her early twenties I think, though back home I'm older than that by time passage, though not really by experience. Our people are long-lived.
Of course, I have no proof of any of this. So I don't expect you to believe me. Some days I even wonder if maybe I'm just crazy and the world I think I'm from is all just in my head. But I don't stay with those kinds of thoughts long. I know what I am and where I'm from deep inside of me. I won't let this place bring me down.
I've been living with Casey and a few of his friends since shortly after I found myself here. It's kind of crowded but I don't much mind. I try to go where life takes me most days and I could use a little
adventure.
