So I got my new to CH pack a few days ago, asked for a dragon and got a Golden Dragon (no experiences with him that I noticed aside from perhaps a little joke I'm unsure it was him or me while trying to bound talk with him mentally).

Anyway, thing is, yesterday I put his vessel (stone) and the connecting stone in my side lower pocket (that has not a button but that thing that kinda glues) and later at night when I was taking them off, the connecting stone was there but his vessel was gone -- . I looked and looked and so far no sign of it, and I'm still like "how the **** did it get out of the pocket?". The only thing calming me down is knowing he's bridged to me, but still, that kinda makes me feel like a bad keeper loosing his vessel days after getting it and what bothers me more is the possibility of it having been him moving his vessel out of the pocket. *\(

Hello there.

You should be more careful in the future and keep the vessel in a bag, then store it somewhere safe. If you want to take it with you somewhere, I highly recommend you not to keep them in your pocket. You never know what happens or how they dissapear.
On the other hand, this does not make you a bad keeper. You can apologize to your dragon for loosing the vessel, but it is a good thing that you have him bridged to yourself. My first vampire, A. got his vessel stolen from me, from my bag one night. All the story happened in less than five minutes. I was lucky because his conjurer was able to find him and attach him to me. I still feel very bad about it, but he said it's just fine and somehow, he wished for this to happen. I was thinking to attach him to me for a long time, but the moment just didn't feel right back then, so I'm guessing it was meant to happen.

You are so not a bad keeper. I have had this happen more times than I can remember all while in my room. Also remember our spirits have other business in there own realm. Plus dragons can play hide n seek.

But if after some time you cannot find his vessel you can still speak with him and ask if he would like another vessel. Some people like a vessel just to hold onto.

I already ordered another vessel a few days ago for him, along with a few more things on the jubilee event. Unfortunately I'm still, like someone would say, "deaf, dumb and blind in communicating with spirits", so having a vessel does help and I'm hoping he's ok with it.

I don't want to sound chauvinist, but guys don't exactly carry bags/purses around. Alternatively I've been thinking about if ever stones again, to ask them to be drilled so I can put on a necklace.

Either way, thank you both.

Yes, try and get drilled stones, something masculine that you can wear, It is all apart of the learning journey, we have all lost vessels, or had them stolen! All will be well.
