Iblis’ head snapped up as she felt something brush her fur. Petals. They floated, drifting, spiralling, to the dead ground. She picked one off of her shoulder. It was dried up, a corpse that would soon be consumed by some other beast of the lands. Yet, when she nudged it with a claw, it seemed to stir, lifting and floating like rising from a downy sleep. The petal rose, and rose, then stopped. It repeated this motion, of falling, dying, and rising once again, restless, trying to escape the cycle. Its struggle was futile, but hauntingly beautiful, a portrait of dancing against the coming night.
Iblis gathered these strange, floating petals into a jar, careful to replace the lid to prevent escape. Flowers were a rarity in the wastes, and while they were not to her taste, perhaps a more aesthetically inclined dragon would find their value.

"Huh? What?"
Joan looked around, confused, until her eyes landed on the skydancer. That just appeared out of nowhere. Is she talking to her? Is that a snake on her neck?
"Who are you? What are you? How did you get here? What do you want with me?"
She was a beautiful skydancer, if anything, but beautiful things are often dangerous. Joan knows, her job is to create beauty, and there was just something too fatal about the way this skydancer stood, an elegant pinnacle amidst the ruined wastes. Joan had to be careful.
Plus, that popping out of nowhere thing? Creepy. Really creepy.

Lethe sighed and did her best to ignore the wariness and distrust that was coming off the stranger, though her limited empath abilities were unable to tune the conflicting emotions out. “I came from a split in the fabric of spacetime,” she replied. Then, knowing that this cryptic response tended to confuse many dragons, she added, “Other dragons fall my form of magic [i]portals[/i]. There is nothing I want from you; I did not intend to land here, or anywhere, for that matter.”
To demonstrate, she dislodged a bone from the pulsating earth and sent it through a portal. Another portal opened and shot the bone out. It was a similar display to the one that she had given that annoying Coatl.

Nines has been thoroughly enjoying his time in the Scarred Wasteland. He's already come across some rare and expensive apparel along with plenty of interesting tales from natives and fellow travellers. He's sent off a letter inviting more of his clanmates to here to share their wealth with other explorers. He's glad to be part of such a large and generous clan that can easily afford to help strangers and expect nothing in return.
As he crests a small hill he spots another dragon nearby, a Pearcatcher from the looks of it. He's had so many pleasant encounters so far that he decides to approach with a friendly smile.
"Hello, I'm 9S from the Clan of the Alien God, but friends call me Nines. I've come from the Ashfall Waste to explore the Scarred Wasteland ahead of the festival."

Crossing paths with a ferberus is considered to be extremely unlucky. Fiona has twelve, of course.

Nines hadn't found anything of interest yet today but that's just fine. He's getting used to the shifting red sandy soils, tendrils, ooze pools and calcified remains strewn about. There's a certain brutal beauty to the Scarred Wasteland that he's beginning to appreciate.
As he's wandering half-aimlessly towards a particularly large bone pile, he spots another dragon nearby. His apparel is certianly eclectic but it all goes together nicely with highlights in his boots matching his wings. Someone has an eye for fashion, being able to make completely different styles blend together by having a strong color palette!
"Hello there! I'm 9S from the Clan of the Alien God, but friends can call me Nines. I've come to explore and document what I find for my clan back home in the Ashfall Waste along with planning a route for them to follow for the festival."
