Could be a spoon, could be a ball. The shading in the room says that's the dark side. Though Fer seems to not mind humoring the spoon idea. It's probably not that important.
...Probably not that important.
... Not that important.
... That important.
... Important.

"How the fig tree is a spoon sword so godly?!"

I bet somewhere out in the world of fantasy is a support group for draconians frequently misjudged as being prominent figures of society.
"I told them I wasn't magical, but they kept telling me their wishes!"
"Do any of you ever wake up thinking: I'll just have a light breakfast. So you go to an inn, ask for toast and eggs, and they bring you sliced bread and raw eggs, saying they don't want to waste the coal on the stove? For the love'a... we don't all breath fire! Well ... I do, but it's not fair that they just assume it."
"Every time I go for a picnic in the valley, some knight rides out of nowhere and asks me where I'm hiding the princess. I tell them that's profiling and they should be ashamed of themselves. And if it's not the knights, it's a group of kids wanting me to take them on a mystical journey! Can't I just have one meal without somebody thinking it's all subtext for a higher purpose?"
"Oh, I know what you're talking about. This one guy keeps barging into my castle asking about a princess while his buddy in a green tunic smashes up my pottery. I keep on telling him 'your princess is in another castle' but without fail he keeps showing up! I can't be the only dragon that though masonry had a nice look to it."
"Hunny, you should move to a cave. I raised all my babies in caves and they turned out just fine. We almost never get bothered or subjected to prejudice by the townsfolk"
"You see? You're part of the problem! We can't all live in caves. And while it's tempting to get away from all the racism, it wouldn't help us to disappear and let them spin those fables about who they want to think we are. You know, I was at a library a few weeks ago and I saw a children's book that showed a dragon doing nothing but eating tacos and breathing fire. I mean, what kind of image does that put in their heads?"
"Are you sure that's what the whole books was about?"
"Well... I didn't really get too far into it, but I was pretty offended by what little I did see."
"Listen, buddy. It's not so bad. The other day I was hanging out at a bar and this guy came up to me and bought me a drink. Gave me a little pat on the back and thanked me for all the good I'd been doing. He must have recognized me from the orphan's charity festival I was volunteering at."
*group collectively sighs*
"Turn around."
"What?"
"Turn around and take your vest off."
*Dragon takes off vest and turns around. The group sighs again.*
"What? What is it?"
"He took some loose scales."
"Yeah, they use them as an aphrodisiac for some reason."
"He... what? But he seemed so nice! Those'll take me weeks to grow back!"
"Yeah, well you weren't about to just give them up, were you?"
"I might've... not for a cheap drink, but.. but.." *dragon sits down and grumbles.*

That cloaked individual is a bit suspicious there. I can't decide though which part of the encounter makes me think that.
The part where Fen almost bumps into her or how they seem to be following the couple that Fen just parted ways with before she almost bumped into this mysterious stranger... Is that a beak under the hood?

Like Fen's mother, the history of prostitution is a spotty one.
In some cases it has been known to empower people to do great things in their communities while also providing a wanted service.
Judging by the lack of introduction to any kind of pimp or madam, Fen's mom was probably working for herself, which means she reaped full profits. And from her natural strength and choice of clients she likely enforced her own collections.
But when it has been more about exploiting another's body for the sake of profit, it does little more than fill the pockets of scary, greedy individuals.
Maria probably didn't want that life for her.
The relationship Fen's mother had with the townsfolk is not exactly known to us (yet?), but it's a small town and people in small towns know each other.
Even if they maybe didn't respect her profession, everybody in a small town respects the pain and struggle of losing a loved one.

People are people everywhere. Creation is the manifestation of psychology. Commerce is a product of mingling minds.
Unless the people of that world differ psychologically from our own, based on the fundamentals of living, many things are likely to follow similar routes. It's the mathematics of predictive reasoning rather than any aspect of fantasy.
But as I've said in the past: who am I to argue with the creator?

I realy would like to see my Fursona in a Cameo there or as a Figure somewhere.
She has even a black Tailtip, so she can use Magic too.
She could sell Magic Stuff, a new Friend/Enemy.
If you wish you can do whatever you wish with her.
"Tigra Watanabe" is based on a Renamon, then upgraded with a Jex.
I have a Ref Sheet on my Page too, but it realy need an Update, special because the YingYang on the Glove is now the same Paw Sign as on the Stomach.
In the sexual Ways, she is a wild Girl, who can be realy slutty if she is in the mood.^^
Would realy like to see her in the Comic someday.
After all, keep the Pork, the Comic is Great, maybe someday someone with the right Skills made a Animation from the Story.
