''Yeah, this was my home. Wide enough to feel scared.'' Hao's voice doesn't have that adorably charming awkwardness here, she's probably thinking in her native tongue, your soul translates her intention flawlessly. ''Big enough to feel incredibly lonely.''
There's a strange stillness here, not unlike the wide arid landscape of Muribel. It wouldn't feel suspect to see someone materialize out of the horizon.
''I don't think the centaur plains can rival this... this open space. You're right, it makes you feel so tiny.'' Klesiah says, grasping her hair, willing it into one long braid.
Looking good.
''To survive the lands, ones need companions. That man said it's possible to modify things, I'll try a little something... It should work if I think about it hard enough, that's how Arawn does it.''
''I can't give you any advice here, way out of my depth.'' You reply reaching for Klesiah hand. Her look of surprise is downright precious and the fact you can touch her without pain is further proof of how good of an idea it was to indulge in the crow-people craft.
''Whoa!?'' You nearly fall on your blueberry when a big animal suddenly manifests next to you.
A gods damned giant lizard appeared out of thin air, a beast nearly matching you in height, clearly weighing more than you. Bright red scales on the outer edges of its body combined with discolored white ones toward its center, soft red plumages spread out of its back and arm, growing down to reach a thick, heavy tail. Murderous talons on its feet and hands translated murder, all dwarfed by the most impressive jaw you've ever seen, crowned by dozens of sharp needle teeth. The bipedal lizard snorted a loud ''pfuh'' as you got your bearing.
If you were facing that beast in the flesh, you'd come very close to pissing your pants. <span class="mu-s">Mother Mercy.</span>
''Hehehehe. Yup, that's my boy alright, I remember him juuust right. Don't be scared Arawn, you'll always have my whole heart''
''These... These are, he's your mount, your people mount?'' Klesiah's hands wiggled, searching for an absent glaive.
''He's my Adamant.'' Says Hao, rubbing the underside of the beast's jaw. Not only is that lizard taller than her, but he can fit her entire head in its mouth!
''I left him with my tribe when I escaped, they wouldn't harm him. Had I known I'd meet my true family...'' Your dear trivial knight shakes her head and jumps on the predator saddle with amazing ease. ''...you guys will have fun riding em, trust me!''
''How do your people even feed these... these predators!?'' Klesiah stiffen when another biped walked next to her, this one was blue and white. A similar beast patiently waited next to you. A dark, white scaled one.
They weren't as well defined compared to Adamant, especially the eyes. Adamant looked alive, these seemed comparable to meat puppets, easy to control.
Hao imagination is occupied by her mount.
