As Narira poked her head out again, she regarded the Dragon-how fearsome, the claws and teeth were! It looked big enough to eat the entire party (Troll included) and come back for second helpings. She hoped they didn't have to fight...and yet, she also felt a conflicting desire to engage it and test herself against it's power, pushing her skills to the very limits of exhaustion.
Blatant terror aside, it was fairly amazing to see with her own eyes. Narira considered she had barely seen any real Dragons-or anything real at all, now that she considered it. She mostly studied...and studied...and studied...and her most exciting stories were from the rare times in her life everything seemed to go wrong. That was strange, wasn't it?
Part of her wanted to be back home in her room, smoking some Hookum-Weed with a long stemmed pipe, warm by a pile of Sungourds, reading a good book or three. And yet...there was something oddly thrilling about being out here, completely beyond her Mothers reach, with only strangers to help her, potential death only a moment away. She supposed this was what being an Adventurer was all about...
Now she just needed some adventurers clothes. Her pretty white dress was already being tattered by the elements, for pity. Maybe she could get a big pair of boots...or a pair of slacks, and one of those debauched open throat shirts 'pi-rates' wore in her books...even a fancy hat with a feather in it, couldn't forget that...
...oh right, Dragon! They would have to deal with the Dragon first.
