Can a Spotted Dove Become a Dragon Too?

[DND, dragon-shifting, fantastic beasts. Not a traditional dragon story.] [Author’s note: I’ve never been a dragon or a turtledove. I like making things up as I go.] You’ve heard of a turtledove taking over a magpie’s nest, but what about a turtledove taking over a dragon’s lair? After transmigrating into a pearl-necked turtledove, Xavier was horrified to discover that he had been born in a red dragon’s lair and seemed to have been mistaken for a red dragon. Since things had turned out that way, he would do his best to play the part of a dragon and begin evolving as one. He would give his drab feathers new colors, strengthen himself with the bloodline and scales of a true dragon, and make an empire where industry and magic coexisted listen to his roar. Until one day, the legendary prismatic dragon would tear through the sky and reach the pinnacle of the world! “Now, I have a question I dare to ask you, great Dragon Lord Xavier.” “Go ahead.” “I heard that someone was fortunate enough to hear your dragon’s roar when you ascended to legend. Why did it sound like ‘gu gu gu’?”
