As you wander around the ever beautiful Everbloom Gardens, you start to hear a strange noise that sounds like buzzing. Turning in the direction of the sound, you see that it was a fae, who was flapping at a unnatural speed than some of the others of her kind. You move to catch her tired form as her stamina gave out.* Oof! Huh? *Her crests displayed confusion* I didn't expect to be saved by a traveler, so thank you. I'm Nadia.

I'm alright, stranger...I just need to recover my energy. Due to my short wings, I have to flap faster to achieve flight. *Her crests started to express frustration.* It does come with a consequence as well; the speed in which I flap at creates a buzzing noise that annoys everyone else. Even though I doubt my wings will get any bigger like everyone says will happen, I can only wait and see. I've already startled my parents at the time of my hatching when they saw the size of my wings.

I may have trouble reading the expressions of other dragons, but even I know that they are only trying to comfort me and themselves about my wing problems. They are only tolerating me until I get too annoying to them. I'm trying to make myself meaningful in the clan by practicing my flying and sharpening my hunting skills on any insects I see. If I can provide in any manner, then at least I can extend my stay.

*Nadia's crest displayed surprised upon some words.* My body is more sturdy than many faes you've met? Maybe it's because I move along the ground and walls to avoid annoying others with my buzzing...*The crests expressed something you have yet to learn.* I may have more doors open for me than I had previously thought. Thank you for the insight.

I should be heading back home to my clan. Do you wish to come and get to know the others?
