Hi!
This is my first review at Writing.com and I must say that I didn't plan to read anything today, lacking time. However, browsing through the new items, I started to read and couldn't stop.
This is really a nice reading and yes - it is a strange journey, like you said in your description. In attempts to understand what the story is about, I reread some parts and still couldn't get it, but possibly that was not the point, was it? Life is greater then what we understand about it.
My overall impression can be expressed in merely one word: atmosphere. I think this is what this story is about. I also loved characters, especially the dragon. Tom is also alright, and I was struck by that Purpose idea, that little puff also having a Purpose... This is so unusual and at the same time it may be really true, yes?
There were a couple of tiny things I didn't like and which kinda broke the language style and rythm. First of all, that "F... fingers". Seems out of style, really. And another thing, the word "(literally)" in brackets. This also kinda ruins the rythm of reading. But those are too tiny to really consider them. And basically I liked two last parts more, although it was the first one that got me started into the story.
In conclusion I'd like to say that, having read the story, I feel I got to know the characters so well, it's a shame I have to part with them. Will I ever meet Tom or Naug again?

I got only 102 Gift Points, so I quess I can't gift you a lot. But I really want to show you my appreciation of your work, so I'll gift 75 and, as far as I understand, you'll get 50 and writing.com 25, so it is the best I can do right now. :)

With respect, Louigi Verona.
