Dragons & Birthdays WIP

I'm sure you believe that "birthdays" are the same at Egg Days, however, I assure you, there is a difference. Dragons are expected to grow in wisdom while humans are simply celebrating what their body does naturally.

The theme here is surrounding the birthdays of the dragons that live around the city of Bluji. That means they'll be talked about when the little dragon-half girl comes up to talk to Patches about her missing father (her human mother says that the child is actually missing a doll and pinning all the worry on the father). Patches asks about him and where he is, but she admits that he's not in the city right now.

The other reason to have dragon birthdays written in here is because Talmoth will celebrate his "birthday" with Patches, though he says it's not really a birthday day (but agrees to do it since it'll make Patches be happy and behave). Patches celebrates the day that he was created, so Talmoth consults the dragon/sea calendars and sees when he would have been born. The two of them take a quick trip up to a sword shop where Patches tries to buy him a sword (but doesn't know how to pick out a good one). Patches finally says that what he'd like for his egg day would be for Patches to take some lessons in defense so the man isn't chugging healing potions or bleeding out in the middle of the street.
They talk about how dragon birthdays focus more on learning something new instead of receiving something bought. Though sometimes the two can go hand in hand, such as gifting a harp in addition to lessons on how to play it.
The mother finally talks to Patches (she says that her daughter had asked for that as a birthday present) and she shares her worries that her husband the dragon has been hurt since he was supposed to come back a couple of weeks ago.
