Any “ancient” beast could be worth some attention, at least that’s what she’d gone into the Mistwood thinking. An old forest king complete with his own legends in the city? Perfect! How interesting! Perhaps he was yet another descendant of her niece, she’d thoroughly looked forward to a decent chat.
However, that’s not how it had gone down. The beast was yet another ornery drake and wouldn’t even give her the time of day.

This wasn’t a fun game! This wasn’t chaotic! It was slow, it was boring it was pedantry. Oh, it was a blessing to be outside the trapezohedrons, but this was such a separation from who she was that it was starting to wear thin. Even aside from everything that had been taken, fundamental truths just weren’t... True! Maddening! And not the good kind of madness! She’d been patient until now, and she knew she’d be fine again tomorrow. But now, right now? She was unhappy.
She needed something basic, something raw. There was something in these ruins, she could smell it. It would have to do.
So she stalked through the broken stone structures in the form of a terrific spider like creature of monstrous proportions. Her body was a strange, fractured glass refracting light of many different colours with what looked like a cocoon of prismatic webbing wrapped around something stuck to her abdomen. She strode on at least a dozen different legs, legs that periodically struck through weakened walls as she searched for something out of place.
