Ah, damn, the man looked decidedly displeased to see him - not that Jigano could blame him, and the silver dragon sat back in the snow, wings folding and tail with its great scaled vanes curling in a broad arc to the side. He dropped the small gem in the snow and then dipped his head to take it in his teeth - gently, gently - as the beleaguered traveler prepared to defend himself.
Only a dragon for the moment, he did his best to reassure his fellow traveler. It's getting too cold for most of my other shifts, and this was the fastest way to the portal. I'm headed back to the Hollowed Grounds, for dinner and a warm fire at home. I was delivering more supplies for the Grounders today, up to the Palace. Are you headed back that way yourself?
The chatter might have been annoying, but he hoped it was also comforting enough to assure the young man - the... familiar? young man? it was always so hard to tell beneath all the layers - that he wasn't a dragon of the man-eating variety.
