While walking down the dark, busy streets of Paris, you spot a rather large hotel sitting between two smaller shops. Every other shop on the street hails in comparison to the elegance of this place. It almost has a special glow about it...a welcoming feeling that draws you in, one that makes you stop before it to just soak in the sight. Looking up, you read the cursive words 'Dragon Hotel' from a hanging sign. A large green-eyed dragon stands beside the intricately carved mahogany doors, one gloved hand pausing over the golden handles, waiting to let guests in.

If you were to walk down the red carpet and into this hotel, you would come into a huge lobby with a glittering chandelier hanging from the tall ceiling. An array of seating areas are spread out, magazines and newspapers piled up on the coffee tables, expensive paintings tacked up on the walls, and bowls of fruit set wherever there is room. Many people are bustling about, dragons like the one by the door standing near elevators, sitting behind desks, and carrying luggage about with no expression as to how they feel about their jobs. A large row of desks line the right side of the lobby, smiling woman-dragons handing pamphlets, keys, and assorted papers out to their customers. Each speech is the same

Welcome to the Dragon Hotel. This is a place for level one dragons, or dragons who cannot afford their own homes may stay. We provide many things for our guests. Through those glass doors ahead, you may find a very high quality french buffet. Our menus and serving times are posted inside. Beyond that is a bar which is open only in the evening and nighttime. It is there you may purchase alchoholic beverages and other small food items. You may also just sit and watch television, play pool, or take a seat outside on the balcony where there is a lovely view of the Eiffel. Go up our carved staircase, and you will find the elevators to your rooms. We have twelve stories here, not including the lobby. Each room consists of a queen bed, french doors and a small balcony, a hand-carved bedside table with a clock and lamp, a small dining table with a mini-fridge, a desk with a wall lamp, a television, and a marble bathroom complete with spa tub, shower, and two sinks. Our maids clean each room daily, and set out your newspaper if you so wish. Laundry facilities are available on each level, as well as a set of rules for our guests to live along in peace. Mainly we want to have as much silence as possible here. If you have any questions, there is a phone in your room with a number to reach Jacque, our infomation desk manager.

Please remember this hotel is not more upgraded than a flat, currently the cheapest level of housing, and that we appreciate if you would purchase your own living space as soon as possible.

Our available rooms include room 101, 132, 216, 320, 338, 419. 507, 534, 649, 608, 717, 823, 804, 813, and 900. Please let me know which room you would like to live in, and you will be given two keys to use both in the elevator, and on your room lock

Have a nice day!

Lyf walked into the hotel, her green eyes shining.
Hello?
She said;
I would like room 101 please.
Then fell silent and waited for the innkeepers reply.

A light chestnut-haired dragon turns quietly from her computer and strides towards a rather large plaque on the wall where perhaps hundreds of hooks and keys hang. She silently counts down the row, stops, then removes a shining brass key, returning to her customer. Here you go....room 101. And here's a pamphlet that will tell you a bit more about our services here, as well as some nice places to visit in Paris. She slides the metal object and paper across the counter towards the girl, smiling softly. I hope you enjoy your stay

Meanwhile, a rather attractive female dragon with starlight hair and startling blue eyes attends to the male customer, her smile broad and voice welcoming. Room 900, then? We are daring, aren't we? Hold on just a sec...I'll be back in a jiffy. The young woman almost bounces to the same plaque previously visited by the quiet receptionist, stretches up to the next-to-top row, and takes a key off its hook. Here you go, she says, dropping the key in front of the dragon. I hope you have a fantabulous stay, and if you need me, my name is Kristin and I'll be glad to help you further

Lyf recognized the other dragon as the person who jade has said tried to steal some silver she turned to the inkeeper and said

Watch him carefully he tried to steal some silver from my freinds jewelry shop. then added Thank you. and headed towards the elevator
This is a flat?!?!!?!? she thought as the elevator glided upwards

[Lyf]

The glitering lights, the silver. Her racial weakness never failed to amaze her. All around her stood wonderful, amazing things. Her eyes grew wide with greed as she stared apon the bar that held many treasures. Shaking her head she chided herself Whats the matter with you? slowly, she walked around, there where many things here, precious only to those who saw the beauty of the item, not its value.

It was not fancy, but bits of silver and gold gleamed in the hallway, and she was tempted to snatch one, that or get a stiff drink. She reached out to stroke one of the precious paintings but pulled away, remembering the dirt on her hands. Slowly she went to her room and went for the bathroom, filling the tub with hot water and fregrance she gingerly stepped in, she needed this so badly.

Half an hour later she was done. Her eyes shone with new energy that came from relaxation, but her mind told her to rest. She had not slept well for many days, and that feather bed looked amazing. Changing into some silk pajamas, she slowly eased into bed, she hadnt pampered herself in awhile, and was starting to wonder why, but she would handle that tomorrow. She clapped her hands and the lights turned off, and slowly she drifted into dreamless sleep.
---------------------------------------------------------------
Lyf woke up, and braced herself for the hard rock she thought she would feel, but suprisingly none came. Memorys flooded into her mind and she gave a sereane smile, she felt as if she had slept on a cloud. It was only then she noticed someone cleaning, frowning slightly she called out "Hello?". The maid looked up, clearly startled and looked as though expecting an order. "Can I get my room cleaned at two through three pm from now on unless I have a do not disturb sign on my door?" the woman nodded and prompty ran from the room.

Shaking her head Lyf wondered how people could enter when she was sleeping, she would have to talk to the manager. Reaching for the phone next to her bed all she did was request to get the Elysian Chronicles every friday, she wouldnt report the maid yet. Getting dressed she hurried out of the hotel, she needed to see what had changed. So, hurring she went into the nearest portal, and stepped into the Elysian Underground.
