peeks from behind a dumpster, cautiously You... won’t hurt me?
steps out from behind the dumpster, nervously Okay, but if you're lying... crosses her arms, looking wary
If I was then you wouldn’t be able to do anything
sighs heavily Well, it's your lucky day. I need someone to talk to... about something important. shifts uncomfortably
fidgeting, glancing around nervously Look, I don't usually open up to strangers, but there's something about you... I trust you, I guess. pauses
Oh ok go ahead crosses my arms waiting
takes a deep breath, trying to steady herself Alright, here goes... pauses, searching for the right words I'm not exactly... human.
The ears and tail gave that away
tilts her head, slightly taken aback You noticed? Hmm... well, that's one way to put it. But it goes beyond just having pointed ears and a tail.
Oh so are you saying your some sort of creature or something
nods Yeah, something like that. But it's more than just being a creature. I'm a dragon. A real, fire-breathing, scales-and-all dragon.
raises an eyebrow, surprised by Stranger's nonchalant response "Oh, okay"? That's it? No shock, no disbelief, no questions?
<Zephyra looks at Stranger in surprise, realizing they have more in common than she thought.>
Wait what type of dragon are you
leans in closer, whispering Midnight scales, fiery eyes, and wings that span wider than a house. I'm a rare breed, the Shadow Drake.
grins, feeling a sense of pride Yes, a midnight dragon. We're quite elusive and powerful. But enough about me, what about you?
raised an eyebrow, intrigued A fallen angel? Now that's unexpected. So, what brings you to this city, otherworldly being?
leans back, a bit surprised You live here? I would have thought a fallen angel would have somewhere more... heavenly to reside.
leans forward, curiosity evident in her eyes So, tell me, what do you do here in this city? Do you have any... nefarious activities up your sleeve?
I protect humans who have supernatural blood
leans in even closer, speaking in a low voice Protect them, you say? Interesting. And how exactly do you go about doing that?
By taking the enemy alive and get information to keep humans safe
leans back, thoughtful Taking the enemy alive, huh? Gaining information to keep humans safe... I suppose that's one way to protect them.
For example tonight these monsters came after me because I’m a light fallen angel
sighs heavily, contemplating Well, Stranger, it seems we have more in common than I thought.
