Key Locations

The Riverlight

A gentle, glowing river where Aurelia first meets Lauren, and where many quiet conversations and discoveries begin.

Edmunds Town

A human town watched over from above by Emberwing. This is where Lauren lives, learns, and grows.

Whispergrove Forest

A soft, sheltering forest where Leo, Kira, and Oscar often cross paths, and where secrets are shared under the trees.

The Riverlight Cast

Aurelia

A bright golden-yellow Glimmerwing baby dragon with cinnamon-brown horns and crest, and green wings edged in gold.

Role: Heart of the series

Lauren

A human girl who befriends Aurelia and slowly discovers her own courage, empathy, and sense of responsibility.

Role: Point-of-view kid

Leo

A field mouse in Aurelia’s world—curious, cautious, and often the first to notice when something feels “a little off.”

Role: Quiet observer

Oscar

A wise owl who often takes on helper or guide roles, including doctor in pretend play when Lauren is anxious.

Role: Gentle advisor

Kira

A non-magical forest fox—grounded, practical, and warm. Kira often plays the “big sibling” or caretaker energy in the group.

Role: Steady companion

Emberwing

An older dragon with a more dramatic, watchful presence—still safely within “kid gentle,” but carrying bigger story stakes.

Role: Looming protector

Behind the scenes, the Riverlight world is supported by a full story bible: locations, timelines, emotional rules, and visual canon for Aurelia and friends.

This page will eventually link to a public-friendly version of the lore that stays safely age-appropriate.

Continuity & Consistency

Aurelia’s color scheme, crest, horn shapes, and proportions are locked. Future books, activities, and branding all follow the same model sheet.
