((Awesome - I'm gonna get started, then.))

Here, the brambles were too dense to allow for proper flight, so she walked with her wings tucked close to her body, scrambling over logs and between branches. She was dressed in green leather with copper ornaments, both as protection and as a sign of her status within her home clan. The goggles she wore made her surroundings seem even darker and murkier, but at least they offered some protection from the elements. She carried with her a tiny lantern, hanging from the tip of her tail, which gave only a faint green glow against the shadows. As she walked, tiny sprouts and mosses sprang up wherever her claws touched the ground - a mark of a powerful Nature mage. Occasionally, she paused to investigate the mushrooms growing amid the trees, picking one or two from time to time and tucking them safely into the leather bag she carried. These fungi were unique, and quite rare, growing only in the Tangled Wood and sprouting only once every few years. It was said that they had highly potent medicinal properties, and that made them very valuable. These mushrooms were what she had come for, traveling alone all the way from the Viridian Labrynth. Though the journey was perilous, it was well worth the danger - these mushrooms, along with a few other ingredients, could make a cure for the sickness quickly spreading through her clan. As Matriarch and leader of her clan, she considered it her duty to care for and protect every dragon in her realm, no matter the risk to her own safety. The fae soon came into a small clearing, illuminated by other brilliantly glowing fungi. She set down her bag with a sigh, settling down on the ground next to it. She had been traveling for days, and this seemed as good a spot as any to rest for a little while.

It didn't take Ava long to realize that she wasn't alone. She crouched in a defensive position, the frills around her head flaring out in a display of wary curiosity. She tilted her head to one side, glancing at the Skydancer and the Spiral in turn, trying to gauge their intentions.

"Good evening," she called, watching the two of them carefully. "...Or... no, I suppose it must be morning by now," she amended, shaking her head as she noticed the first hints of sunrise through the gloom. It really had been a long night.

"I didn't expect there to be anyone else this deep in the woods, especially not at this hour. Who are you?"

Ava's ears perked up at the faint sound of movement from the trees nearby - another dragon? This place was much less secluded than she had expected. She pulled her satchel closer to her body protectively and put on an air of confidence, not letting her nervousness show. Her magic was much weaker outside the Viridian Labyrinth, and though she didn't doubt her ability to handle any trouble that might arise it still left her in a vulnerable position.

She turned to Euriona. "I am Ava, of the Riverclan. I'm a traveler from the Behemoth." She glanced over her shoulder at the trees behind her.

"...I believe we're being watched. It's rather impolite of you not to show your face, stranger," she called to the unseen dragon hiding in the branches. "Your stealth is remarkable, but the trees will give away anything if you know how to listen to them. Please, come down and join us."
