I Taught the Dragon How to Court… Now He’s Completely Mine Episode 4

Episode 4 · Evelyn, Kaelen, Magnus

Episode 4 recap

Kellen sings the courtship Requiem outside on the snowy balcony at night. Exhausted, Evelyn orders him back to his nest. Over the following days, Kellen directs his song at passing Skywings, but no female answers him. Evelyn searches through old academy records during the night. She discovers courtship requires an aerial Featherbond Dance after the song. Realizing Kellen lacks this training, Evelyn equips Imperial Alchemic Glider Wings at the cliff edge to teach him the routine.

Episode 4 scene by scene

00:00: Interrupted Sleep on the Balcony
During a snowy night, Kellen stands on the balcony and sings the courtship Requiem with fierce devotion. The noise wakes Evelyn inside. Tired and angry, she throws the door open and shouts at Kellen to return to his nest immediately.
00:24: Unanswered Songs on the Coast
Kellen spends several days calling out along the snowy coast. He sings his powerful Requiem toward passing Skywing females in the sky, but none accept him. Evelyn watches him from nearby and records that vocal calls alone will not attract a mate.
00:33: Discovering the Aerial Courtship Dance
Evelyn stays up all night searching through old archives in the study room. She learns that Skywing mating requires both the Requiem song and an aerial Featherbond Dance to seal a soul bond. She realizes Kellen was never taught how to dance.
00:54: Preparing for the Flight Demonstration
Evelyn goes to the tower armory to protect her research position. She takes out a pair of Imperial Alchemic Glider Wings and fastens them to her back. She then guides Kellen out to a rocky cliff ledge to demonstrate the flight movements.
