Heather looked at the berry bush, “Those berries are bitter though”, “And i have a trick to make it sweet” you smirked, picking a few berries, she watched for a moment before joining in your berry picking. After about half the bush berries were plucked, you shifted back to your dragon-human form or druman form, which you still have to ask her how she came up with the name, placing the berries on the ground and holding your hands out like a bowl, and blowing onto your hands.

And sure enough, you made a little makeshift bowl out of ice! Heather watched in amazement, “Wow that's- amazing!” she exclaimed, you chuckled a little, putting the bowl down and placing the berries in it, “Thanks, just don't ask me to make a tray, i can't do that” she nodded at your request. You reached into your bag to grab the spike you acquired from Windsheer back at Berk, which reminded you.

“So what were you talking about while at Berk?” you asked her as you started to crush the berries in the bowl, “Oh just giving him the news about the island, there was a dragon that lived under the island, it doesn't seem to be around anymore yet the dragons don't really like going down on the island” she explained. “Yeah i can feel what they mean by that, its weird i can just barely feel it though”, “Probably because your part dragon” you nodded and blew onto the berry mush, freezing them just slightly, mixing it up again.

Now it was a frozen treat, “Here try it, it's sweet now” you said, handing her the bowl, “All you did was-”, “Shush shush shush, try it, i promise it's not bad at all!” you said excitedly. Heather chuckled, rolling her eyes and scooping a bit of the frozen dessert, her eyes practically lit up once it got in her mouth, “That's actually sweet, really sweet, how did you do that? I was watching the whole time!” you laughed a bit, shifting back to your human form, “Maybe it's the ice? Ice tasted other kinds of ice before and they all taste different, but mine is sweeter compared to them” you explained.

She looked at you confused, “Maybe it's just my mouth?- like how i taste like” you added, thinking would it be cannibalism if a dragon or human ate you, Heather blushed a bit, “Oh uh- maybe i don't know, maybe”, “I'm not into cannibalism though, it's scary” you said nonchalantly. Heather blinked a few times before bursting out laughing, “Oh you're thinking of that way, oh okay” you looked at her confused, “There's another way?” she nodded, “I'll tell you another time though, right now we still have to get you settled in my hut”

You nodded and got up, Heather handed you the bowl now half empty and led you down the path to the village, of course you ate the rest of the frozen treat on the way down before setting it down by another one of the berry bushes, “Why did you leave it there?”, “So when it melts, it waters the berries so it grows more” you answered, “That's actually smart, you have to let me have some of that though every now and then” she declared.

“Alright alright, i'll make it when i can” you chuckled, Heather smiled, “Yes! Now, back on track, dagger said you can stay in our hut until your own hut is made if you want to stay of course”, “I would love to stay, i don't have anywhere else to go anyways, and you do know my little secret” replied. Soon enough, the two of you made it to the hut. Heather showed you around the house and told you about the village. It wasn't a big village, and the house was spaceful.

“Hey uh, sorry for sounding rude but where am I going to sleep? I don't mind sleeping anywhere actually” Heather thought for a moment, “You’ll just have to sleep in my room with me for now, my bed is big enough for both of us to sleep in” she answered, you smiled, “Great! It's like a- what was it, a sleepover? Yeah a sleepover!” Heather chuckled, if you were in your original form, she would bet that your tail would be wagging happily.

Heather looked at you for a long moment before looking over at the fire pit, “I'm going to head to the market to pick up some fish for dinner, wanna come?” you nodded, “I can get fresh fish too, i know how to swim”, “Wouldn't that take longer to get some food?” she asked, she wasn't wrong but you were getting a little bored. “Alright let's go to the market then” you sighed, “Great, maybe we can run into my brother on the way and you two can talk more since the first interaction wasn't so-”

She waved her hand around but it made no sense to you, “Nevermind, another thing i need to teach you”, “I know a lot of things, how much is there to know more about??” you asked as Heather took your hand and started walking out to the village market, “A whole lot, the word is bigger than you might think, on both sides of dragons and humans” she said shortly. Huh, that must be a lot then. “Okay then” you looked at all the villagers around, and they didn't seem friendly much but then again neither did Dagger, but he was nicer then he looked.

Never judge a book by its cover, you remind yourself of Valka's words, whatever a book is. Another question for Heather to teach.
