They took the couple and give them a proper funeral, and bury them on a small graveyard, north of Oren, close to the Ivory Tower.
Drenix saw everything from avobe. Hidding betweenthe branches of ono the talles trees, with tears in his eyes, he said goodbye to his parents one last time.

Athrea closed their house, taking some stuffs of the kid, and leaving tht place just like it was. Now it's just a lonely and deserted house in the middle of nowhere.

Drenix moved with Athrea; he sleep on the tree under wich Athrea have her home. It wasnt that bad...

The years passed by, and the kid grew, keeping that... appearance... as a dragon.
At least it was easier to hunt the dinner. With the time he gained some skills hunting windsus in the area, and he also was able to move in his body with ease.
After seven years, Athrea managed to finish a forbidden potion, that she read in one of the academy's book.

She called Drenix one afternoon.

-Here, let's try this -the witch handed him a vial with a blue color inside.
-What is this? -he asked
-Just drink it, you wouldnt want to know what this contains, hehe
-Hmmm... I believe that.

When he tried to grab the vial without breaking it, asked:

-Can you help me?

With the years, when he was growing, so does his body. Now he was 8 meters -plus other 5 meters of tail, and 10 meters each wing-, his blue color remains, his neck was longer, and had 4 horns in his head -two short, and two long behind those-, finally, his eyes were yellow.

-Ok, let me help you with that, I dont want you to break one of my favorites vials.
-Heh sweatdrop
-Bend a little, else I cant reach you, and open your moth.
-Ig ohei aigh dis? (Is ok like this)-he asked with his mouth open
-Just one more thing... dont you dare to sneeze, I sure have eternal life but that doesnt make me immortal, so I dont want you to accidentally breath fire on me...

The witch poured the liquid so he could drink.
After a few more secons, he started to feel strange.
His body was mutating one more time, he became smaller with his wings were disappearing in his back as well as his tail, his scales turned slowly into human skin. All his body was changing.
When his transformation was completed, he laid down on the ground, relly tired. The process was kinda unconfortable and painful, but not unbearable.
He was a human once again
Athrea covered him with a blanket, and let him rest there for a while, watching over him.

It took him a couple of weeks to remember how it was to be a human, actually he got seriously wounded trying to hunt a windsus,... it's not the same when one it's only a frail human, instead of a dragon.
The potion that Athrea made, was effective, but not stable nor permanent. I was necessary that Drenix managed to control that too, else, with time that would became a problem; he couldnt live his life depending on that potion.
He turned into a dragon several times again, but he require the potion to regain his human appearance.
