In the middle of the night, in my dreams
You should see the things we do, baby
You should see the things we do, baby
There is something to be said for youthful naivete and an unhealthy lack of fear. Aithne does not run screaming from the sight of the dragon, not even as the great beast lumbers from the lava and nearly whacks the girl upside the head with one massive, leathery wing. No, she stands and watches, curious and intrigued, as the dragon seems to search the nearby rocks. Where she might have expected a bloodthirsty beast that might turn upon her to sate its appetite, this dragon seems... intelligent. It walks over to a specific rock, tail held daintily aloft, and presses down on the boulder with a giant foot -
And the rock crumbles as easily as if it were sand, revealing a pile of beautiful crystals in its center.
Aithne gasps, her hands flying to cover her mouth as her tail lashes behind her. She wonders, however briefly and impossibly, if she can entice the dragon to leave. Maybe if she waits long enough, she can pick through the remnants of the quartz left behind. She sees one particular clump, rose-hued and as big as her head - and practically squeals with glee at the thought of taking it with her. She may not have anywhere to put it, but that hardly seems to matter at the moment.
With another glance at the dragon, Aithne settles, cross-legged, onto the ground to wait.
