She scurried away form the cage, afraid that she'll catch attention from other nearby dragons. EmberSight had always been willing to help others, and once she heard the tremble within IceDrift's voice. She pushed through the crowd of dragons, some with grass-weaved baskets and others with straw hats, all gazing at the fresh fruits and vegetables on display. EmberSight's mother, Evergreen, was a farmer herself and always took EmberSight along with her too browse everything on display. EmberSight shuffled some more and took a sharp turn towards an alley and came up upon a large wooden door with flower carvings engraved on it. She took her leather pouch around her neck off, and flipped the flap open, looking for her keys. She pulled out a rose gold key and inserted it in the lock and just like that the door opened.

EmberSight was welcomed by the sweet smell of lemongrass and other spices. She scrambled towards the kitchen, through the door way and into her room. Paper and books were scattered all over the floor, which didn't take her by surprise. EmberSight heard a scuttling sound coming from her nest and she crept towards it, daringly. Out popped a head. Not just any ordinary dragon head but a scavenger head. EmberSight pulled out her blunt claw and the scavenger would cling onto it. "Willow, you made such a mess." Ember pouted and Willow frowned. EmberSight put down her claw and the scavenger jumped off and started picking up the large pieces of paper. She smiled with approval and sat down at her desk. She started drawing a map of the town and all the caves nearby that she knew of. She stuffed the sketch in her pouch and left the room, pausing at the doorway to wave at Willow and continued outside, now it was time for 'Phase 2' of her plan.
