Sohalia
Sohalia had seen a lot of strange things during her travels, but she had to admit that watching a dragon cling to a human's arm as he held it out over the Falling was a new one.
She'd come down for a bit of a break from the city above, looking for some peace and quiet where she could comfortably sketch without company. It was strange for the young woman to seek the solace of solitude, where she once would have been content to be in the middle of the life of the city, making new friends and bonding with old ones. But that was before she'd been attacked as she walked home from dinner, and now she found herself jumpy and tense as she traversed the city streets. It was easier to linger in the less populated areas - at least until she managed to calm her taught nerves.
What she hadn't expected was to find a man holding a young dragon out over the expanse of sky, trying to convince it to fly. While part of her wanted to laugh at the sight, she mostly just felt sorry for the poor creature, which was clearly trying its hardest not to fall.
So despite her nerves and her tension and her overall desire to just leave it alone, she walked toward the man with her head held high, and there was only a slight quaver to her voice when she said, "What in Caido are you doing to that dragon?"
