Part of the whole 'tall, charming, and handsome' package.

[Being charming and handsome do not contribute to speed, Jaeha. It does give him a chance to pat indicatively at his leg with a sparkling smile, though...mostly because he wants to feel if the scales are still there. Even through the layers of his robe and trousers, he can feel the texture of the dragon's leg. Disappointing. If this place was going to rob him of his powers, they could at least take away the ugly deformity while they were at it.]

I wonder if our successors have been born as a result of being brought to this place.
