Profile
For young dragons, venturing outside of the celestial realm has long been prohibited to protect their purity. ''Miryu is a young air dragon with a passion for music. Upon hearing about the wonders of human music from a tiny magical friend, she became curious about what life would be like on Earth. But with 845 years of dragon school to go, it seems that the only way for Miryu to experience the outside world is to become... a VTuber!''
