well-behaved doors
Pen' was just going to go practice singing. (She likes singing. The words are all lined up for her already and she doesn't get them wrong.) But this doesn't look like the practice room. So it's probably the magic restaurant.
Pen knows about the magic restaurant! You can go in it, and get food or things to drink (she has bracelets!) and then you just go back out the door and it's been no time at all and you're right where you went in.
She goes in. She is going to have cake.

"Are you going to harass, attack, steal from, spy on, or otherwise interfere with or upset anyone who lives in my world if I let you into it?"

I hardly know what will upset people in your world. I've decided that I'd like to see your world more than I'd like to collect things I find enticing. So, no harm, harassment, stealing, or such, says the dragon. I'm not sure what counts as spying. I won't go looking into humans' lairs, but I see much when I fly. Sometimes I see something interesting and decide to be human, for a little while. To learn more.
He does not say he is safe. That is obviously not true - but none of what he says is a lie.

Those habits being letting the humans have some, then coming back in a few years, and either forcing them to give up what the dragon gave them and then some, or eating them and then taking it all. If they had sold whatever they got from the dragon, it tended to skip straight to the 'eating' stage.
So tell me, what upsides can you think of for having a large dragon on your side?
This is something of a trick question. He will not be on her side, even if she lets him into her world. It's probable he will never actually answer any call she makes for help. Dragons have a habit of word-twisting. This is one such case.

He tilts his huge head. Dragons in Thilanushinyel and Chronicle? How interesting. Perhaps later I'd like to meet them. Regardless... I'm not sure what I could offer. You set a toll to enter but you don't say what sort of thing you'd like. I have made dealings before, in the past. This can be one such instance.

He pauses, then adds, If you do visit, they will all want to hear of your world, and you will be interesting because you are a human that does magic. It's unheard of.

He sets his head on the ground, and gives Pen a brief look.
I have hatchlings to raise - a warzone is not a proper place.

He sounds vaguely insulted.

The dragon eyes her. I think, before I agree to let you have an entrance into my home - I should at the very least ask my mate. She deserves to know, and have input.
