Hello! Please call me Liz -- tradelady or Swagbro is also fine! I'm a Social Studies/English Language Arts high school teacher offsite, but here, I'm a regular chill 28 year old being as slobbishly lazy as I can to offset being professional during the week :)

You may also know me as the Scavenger Hunt Supreme Aide, Minion of the Dread Dragon Petra!

"It is senseless," whistled Shycandy in fury. "It is-- it is-- inane, and foolish, and, and--"

"I know," Okhti growled, stumping past the low outbuildings of the clan's lair.

"They cannot fathom a time when Earth was anything but rock, frozen by time and lassitude," Octavia hissed, tone almost as sharp as her claws. The long Imperial matched Okhti pace for pace. "They have forgotten what Earth used to be."

"Fire," spat Shycandy, fluttering angrily just to keep up. It was a mark of how upset the two were that they did not take into consideration their friend's shorter stride. "Molten metal and rock--"

"They are set in their ways." Okhti cut her off firmly. "Whether they will come to realize those ways are crippling or not is up to them."

Shycandy shrieked. The distant pacing form on the canyon's heights who could only be her mate Malach paused in his stride. "But we can't stay here!"

"It is our Clan's way of life," Octavia said, sounding weary. She stopped in front of the lair entrance; her caverns were more easily accessible from the cliff face, and it was too late to call the Clan to convocation.

Okhti stopped with her and rubbed her muzzle soothingly against her friend's. "None of us shall give up our way of life," she promised. "We shall just find another place where our Clan's motivations are more welcome."

The Clan Byzantium welcomes any and all draconic travelers, as many of the members are inveterate explorers themselves. This is odd, for an Earth clan, but these wayfarers have inevitably found that while it is quite nice to escape by going off on adventures to new places, there is nothing that compares to coming back home. True to form, they have finally returned from an extended period of settlement in the Scarred Wastelands.

Okhti, Shycandy, and Octavia are the Council of Mothers, who lead the clan. Byzantium follows a matriarchal structure, which is primarily due to the fact that the first core members of the clan were mostly female.

Byzantium sprawls both through a cave system (excavated endlessly by the industrious Undul spiral family) and the open land outside in a series of constructed buildings. There isn't a Pearlcatcher in the lot of them, but Gloriosa has a love of architecture that is augmented by Gabriel's love of engineering. The resulting (oddball) grandeur spans the gorge and builds into the face of the cliffs near the base of the Pillar of the World.
