          She drew her hands back, nodding excitedly in response to the woman’s invite. “Oh, I would adore that.” She answered, honestly, lips pulled into a wide smile. “It would be a great honour.”

          “I knew you were too great to have all perished. It seemed impossible,” She affirmed, letting out a small laugh as well. “And, just the main things. I attempted learning your language, but I had no reason to practice, so I gave up..”

          She too pulled away slightly, though immediately missed the warmth the other woman radiated. It was refreshing against the cold she was customer to. “You are.” She nodded, cupping the girl’s painted face in both of her hands. “I studied you beings for so many years... I feared you all dead. It’s wonderful to know that you live.”

          One of her hands found its way to the girl’s hair, fingers burying themselves comfortingly into soft locks. “I hear your cries now, dearest one.” She whispered, shushing her soothingly. “Do you know of me?” She asked, wondering if her followers were dragons as well as mortals. “If you do, then you know I will die to protect you- and your kind.”

          Her hand quickly pulled away at the sight of the flames, fearing she had somehow angered the great creature. Though as the smoke cleared, the emotions Deva had been experiencing before suddenly made sense. She quickly sank to her knees too, pulling the woman into a comforting embrace. “And I am glad to see you to.” She whispered, holding her protectively.

          The heat the breast gave off was oddly comforting to Deva, as she continued her petting of her thick scales. She felt at peace, as if this was the most natural thing in the world. It almost was, she thought. The warmth of scales beneath her fingers was strange, and a huge contrast to the frosty temperature of her own skin. “Are you lost?” Asked the woman, voice low in fear of scaring her newfound friend away. “Injured?” She could not understand what brought the majestic creature to her.

          The goddess’ breath was hitched in her throat, as fear washed over her to replace the initial ecstasy as her discovery. Though, she felt a sort of calmness around the creature, and yearned to learn more about it. She leant into its affection, reaching her hand out to pet the dragon between its curled horns. “I will not hurt you.” She promised, her voice soothing and motherly.

The sun was barely up when Deva donned her bow and quiver, and took to the heavy woods to find her fill. At first, she was tailed by one of her hounds, whom she quickly sent away to track her kill. It had been too long since she’d heard the bays of the dog, and worry was starting to fill her chest. The sudden thuds didn’t help her anxiety much, causing her to double draw her bow and ready herself for a fight. But, to her surprise, she was met with the sight of a creature she was almost sure was nothing more than myth now.
          “Dreki...” Breathed the hunter, her weapon lowered as she stood in blissful shock. “You... You are not extinct!” She cried, laughing in disbelief. “I knew it. I knew it!” Her excitement was wildly out of character for her, but growing up she had always adored the tales of the winged serpents that once walked her home world. For her, it was almost like standing in front of a deity. 

The huntress was skulking the forests, as always, admiring the snowfall around her. She was heading back to the mountains, to her home, when her ears pricked up at the sound of crunching under boots. The scent of the man was unfamiliar, so she unsheathed her blade, and stalked him from afar. She figured she was quiet enough, until he made her. She scoffed lightly, annoyed that she would probably end up tainting the perfect white ground with red if he wasn’t friendly. “This is not your land.” She told him, sternly, stepping out from behind a tree. “What brings you here?”
