She and the other two dragons of her party, Ethera and Izhath, had just returned from yet another trip to the Beastclan territories with many traded and won raw materials and crafted objects in their luggage. They had travelled back to the clan on a ship manned by Snappers on their way to the Spiral Keep. "Just like when I came here first," Coriolane mused and reveled in the memories for a moment. She was brought back to the present by a nudge from Ethera. The Nocturne gestured over to the huts on the beach from where a bright blue Spiral was approaching fastly. The form unmistakably belonged to Asha, the head scientist. His movements were agitated and spread across his snout were the ashy remains of yet another exploded experiment. As soon as he reached the little group, he started bombarding them with questions. "Coriolane! How did it go? Are your wings okay? Let me see them! Do I need to make any repairs?" He had already grabbed her left wing and started inspecting the mechanical framework. Coriolane just sighed and let him. Her mind already wandered to her comfy little cave and her best friend Blumiose while Asha continued babbling to himself. Ethera and Izhath bid her goodbye and ventured off towards the entranceway to the undersea parts of the lair. Coriolane looked after them longingly, but she knew she wouldn't get rid of Asha that soon. She would also have to check if all of their luggage had been loaded off the ship before she could get some rest. She was also considering to go visit the hatchery before laying down in her nice little cave. She couldn't wait to meet the cute little hatchlings that must have hatched during the weeks she was away. Next to her, Asha retrieved some tools from one of his bags and started tinkering with one of her wing supporters. "Can't that wait until later?" she asked a little more rudely than she intended. "Noooooope," was the Spiral's answer and Coriolane sighed once more.

Poetry
A Love Note, Written In Deep Winter wrote:
Oh Winter, I love how you embrace the land
In loving arms of frost and gleaming snowflakes,
That bloom like glacial fragile flowers in my hand.
Your breath brings clarity and breaks
The fever-heights of Summer’s meaningless demands.

I love your song that’s carried in the wind,
When sitting at the window, writing how
My restless heart is yearning for a hint
Encroached in a futile, frantic show.
Oh, how I wish I had your words so kind.

I watch as snow grows on my windowsill,
As fields are blanketed in lace.
Heavy is my hand that holds the quill,
And blank the paper that won’t fill in any pace:
Once again, I must give up my effort still.

With a sigh, my hands will close the heavy tome,
The candle-flame dies, the oven flickers out.
And gentler winds of Spring will guide me home.
I’ll stay there waiting, closing eyes, devout
Until my dear-beloved once again will roam.
Quote:
Behold, behold the light-blessed child
Who carries sunset on her wings,
Down on her the heaven smiles
And with her laugh, the soft light sings.

Blessing brought by radiance fair,
The keeper of a sacred name,
To sun and night beloved heir,
Most honourable bright young dame.

Poetry in every move,
Proudly guiding knowledge’s flame,
Benevolence’s most lovely proof,
This lady, lauded be her name!

@AthenaCorvus Heya i was wondering if i could get a snippet for this guy here, i could do with some sort of inspiration. He is part of a lore, given that he's a 4th gen naomi descendent (theres notes on that in his bio, nothing specific realting to him) I just need something to work with. Probably prefer something darkish, but can always play about lol. [url=http://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=36387582] [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/363876/36387582_350.png[/img] [/url]

Quote:
A dragon who doesn't talk much and seems to be searching for something. Just being in close proximity to Lure can fill other dragons with great and irrational terror. The Fae spends his days trying to strengthen his powers. He doesn't remember much about where he came from, but he feels an inexplicable pull to somewhere in the Crystalspine Reaches...
On a lighter note, he is totally addicted to potash peaches.

I hope this is what you had in mind and it helps you with the lore a bit! Please PM me with the payment you want to give.
