"And now Julius shall present his familiar. Julius, please show us what you have chosen" the lecturer said on the final judging of Julius' class' familiaris. Julius walked
to the center of the auditorium stage alone. "Where's your familiar Julius?" The lecturer asked.
Julius looked to the back ceiling of the large auditorium in a prescripted fashion, "Cody, come here."
A large dragon-like creature took magical flight from the back of the auditorium towards the stage. Cody lifted one arm into the air and a large blue
semi-transparent circle appeared overhead. Cody made a gesture and it became a flaming ring. Cody flew through the wing and circled around, proving himself
impervious. Julius made another gesture and the ring became water. Cody flew through this and several other magic elemental rings before landing next to his
master.
"My Familiar is this dragon here. He is resistant to most forms of elemental magic and many other forms of magic as well. However, he remains strongly grounded
in the magical world by being a mythical creature. He is bonded to me through ritual and love. He has increased my magical energy by 500% and continues to
increase it as I become more proficient and he becomes more draconic. He is very loyal and would do anything for me. He is my best friend as any familiar should
be."
The lecturer smiled. "That dragon looks familiar Julius. How did you acquire it?"
"He used to be my roommate. It would have been a shame if I let his energy go to waste and he was more than willing to be a dragon."
"Ah, very well. I shall inform the Dean. A++."
A hand rose from the crowd, "Is he really a dragon?"
Julius rubbed Cody's back hair, "Cody, care for a demonstration?"
And Cody belched the largest flame he had ever done before.
