| Zircoviane Dragon from Nymphiuze Entering a large hut, you think it empty until a young girl's head pops up from a dusty corner. "Hello there! How did you find this place?" she skips over to you and chatters on before you can answer. "I'm Cala, pleased to meet you. This is my home for the moment. I only just got here, and am clearing everything up. It'll be absolutely beautiful soon." Cala wrinkles her nose as she surveys the mess its in now. "Just not yet. I should be grateful, though, my uncle gave this hut to me when I told him I'd moved out of home. But it's very dusty..." she trails of and frowns. "But it's better than it was at home. Well, it's not my home anymore anyway. But I have 13 younger siblings, and the peace and quiet here is definetly a change. A good one. Oh, I'm babbling, aren't I?" she grins up at you. "I haven't seen anyone in - oh, say four days?" Laughing, Cala grabs your wrist and drags you across the room to a door. Opening it with her free hand, she yanks you next to her on the verandah it leads out onto. "This is the best part of this whole place. I love sitting out here and admiring the view." She gestures out, and you follow her hand motion. A few yards from the edge of the verandah the slight slope drops down sharply, meeting the edge of a huge lake that stretches out as far as you can see around. You reconsider your view that it was a lake, and decide it is maybe a sea or ocean. Specks of brown dotted on the blue expanse indicate small islands, and moving vessels slowly glide between them. "Isn't it wonderful?" Cala asks after a short moment of silence. You nod, and then follow her back inside. "That was the Dewas Ocean. I hope that if I can get a Zircoviane dragon, it can live there. I didn't mention that, did I? I'm hoping to be able to look after one. Kind of adopting, I guess. I think I would name her Pya." You nod, saying that you hope she gets one, as you are sure she would make a good 'parent'. "Yes, I hope so too. But anyway, I have to get back to work. Care to join me?" You decline politely, and notice a spark of amusement in Cala's eye. "Well then, I hope to see you later! Drop back sometime to see if I get a dragon!" |

| Cala sights you as you walk to the greatly-improved hut. "High again! Guess what? I adopted a dragon!" She hustles you inside and proudly shows off the Zircoviane sleeping by the warm fire. "Pya's a reflection dragon. The adoption agency thought me worthy of one, once I cleaned this place up. Reflection dragons are the rarest." You admire Pya, but admit that you have to go. "Well, ok then. But come and visit again soo!" |
