Pia and Nyaseth
The thing about Grabon’s Nest that makes it different from most romances, isn’t that Pia is a dragon, although that might raise a few eyebrows. Of course, Grabon is also a dragon, so that shouldn’t really signify. It isn’t the color bigotry- as humans we see that along with false myths about people who might look different all the time.
What makes Grabon’s Nest different isn’t that it is set on a psychic and sentient planet that communicates with her people, or that each dragon and human that is bonded with the planet has unique talents and skills they have developed. We see that here all the time, people with varying degrees of ability, who develop and produce and achieve amazing things.
No, what makes Grabon’s Nest such a different type of romance, is that it includes the youngsters. Nyaseth to be sure, she is born in the middle of it all, but also Tria and Zack, youths in Grabon’s nest, adopted and loved already before Pia arrived. They are not flat characters, but real and vibrant in their own right. The romance is not just between Pia and Grabon but between all the inhabitants of the nest and also the clan. Pia arrives as a stranger and she is accepted and included very deliberately.
