Mike looked at his son as he entered and smiled when Derek asked him how he proposed to Elsbeth. "You forget my son, I proposed to two women in my lifetime. But as for Elsbeth, well to be honest you must first find out if your dragon is ready to find its mate. Draconia human custom are a little different to Levalga human customs, in Lervalga a Lethian will court the lady over the space of a few days, to show both his affection and to see if she is interested, if she is then she will start to return the court until eventually the two of them will kiss and lock eyes together connecting them as both humans and Lethians. After that, the man will offer the lady a ring with his family insigma on it and she will put it on. Then they make plans and marry" Mike explain the Levalga customs to Derek to allow him to get an Idea.
Mike then took a deep breath and said "Draconia customs, well you've pretty much already both courted with each other. The next stage my son, is that your dragons must connect on a heart level, you should hold her close and see if your heart sync up. If they do, you must go on one knee and speak to Crystal in dragon tongue and say "Dracaro, nefelda lavager tosuma necuta which translate to "My heart is your and they beat together as one. I wish to ask your hand in marriage, To the great mother of dragons and to the Father of Leviathans, for us to be as one. Of one heart, of one mind, and of one soul". If Crystal truly is in love with you, and she accepts your proposal you can put this ring on one of her fingers" Mike told him as he handed him a ring that had the true Fertar seal which was a Crystal blue Leviathan wrapped around a thunderbolt, there was also a smaller dragon wrapped around the cross in the thunderbolt. Mike then took a breather before he also gave his son a warning. "But remember that Crystal is a Levalga native and I know from experience and History that sometime Starector takes it as a direct insult if a Draconia marries a Levelga since she does not like Letelga, the father of all Leviathans who to be honest, does not think she should act all high and mighty, just because she created the dragons and married his older brother".
Mike then smiled at Derek as he said "I'm proud of you my boy, for doing so well during the Fertar Memories. Remember that now that you experanced the Fertar line, you can always ask them for advice if I can't help you"
