  Well, the dragon girl was quite an enthusiast one, that was for sure. Maribelle let go a sigh, looking for an amount of patience she wasn’t sure to have after falling to the ground and injuring her ankle in the most ridiculous way possible. She brushed aside the merchant’s concern once more, turning her attention to the manakete.

"Ridiculous? Furious? Terribly and utterly disappointed with the world itself? Perhaps all of these things at once, I dare to say", she suggested to finish off the phrase Nowi had uttered, in her usual sarcastic way. She managed to soften her own tone. "I am glad you are enjoying the festivities here, don’t get me wrong. At least one of us is having a good time. Alas, I am afraid I can’t say the same. I think I injured my ankle while I fell trying to dodge that" she pointed with her head at the caravan that almost ran over her, her own face blushing angrily as she remembered how terribly embarrassing the thought of the mere scene was, "Not only that, it seems the people of this town doesn’t care if another person has an accident. In fact it seems to amuse them", she glared towards the crowd that had formed lately to see what happened. Nobody was laughing now, that was for sure, and some of them even passed by as if they didn’t want to know anything else about the incident. The noblewoman didn’t know what angered her the most.

"Thus, I need to get out of the crowd, as soon as possible. As you can see, I don’t have my healing staff with me", in fact it seemed ridiculous to her to use it to heal an injured ankle. It wasn’t an injury so significant to spend healing power on that, so for her it was a waste of time. "Maybe, if you aren’t doing anything else significant, you could help me with that." She looked at the dress she chose to wear for the occasion, and sighed to see it was now ruined, with mud stains that would be a nightmare to get off. She has an idea then, and with all the pride and poise a girl of her position could have, she looked again at the nervous merchant. "You there. Maybe there is something you can do to make up for your faults. You will pay for my spoiled dress here. Then, maybe, the duchy of Themis won’t take retaliation against you for almost ramming that thing against its heiress" She raised her chin, seeing how the man grew pale quickly and accepted her condition handing her a bag of gold; that helped to calm herself down a bit. "Thank you. That’s most kind of you."

She then turned to Nowi again. “So, shall we go then?”

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Whoa, that's a lot of things to be feeling at once." Nowi's smile turned upside down. "And they didn't help you? That's pretty rude. Should I eat them and restore your honor?"

The manakete suddenly grinned. A wind came by and picked up her cape, so it was blowing valiant behind Nowi as she placed her hands on her hips. 

"It would be my pleasure to help you out, Maribelle!" she reached into her garter pocket and pulled out her dragonstone. "Let me just turn into a dragon, eat the citizens of this town, and fly us out here to freedom!"

The tactician pushed back a strand of hair that had fallen upon his forehead and sighed as this was clearly going nowhere, so he’d have to take charge. “Okay, well, we can start from the field we’re camped from for now, that sound good to you?”

[yourfavoritedragon]

She hummed, pretended to be in thought, then nodded. "Yeah, okay. That idea sounds good. Oh, but it's not in the field? Where would we search then? What if my dragonstone got eaten by a snake?"

Ricken was relieved to see that it was just Nowi and not an enemy trying to plan a sneak attack while his guard was down.  He waved in greeting as he finished his bite of food.  “Okay, okay, I’ll share,” he waved his hand dismissively as she demanded some of his lunch.  “Just a second…”  With a bit of effort since he didn’t have a blade handy, he split the fish in two and gave Nowi half of it.

"So, what’ve you been up to today?" he asked the manakete.  "I’ve just been practicing some new spells.  I wanna be super helpful in the next battle!"

[yourfavoritedragon]

Nowi shoved the half into her mouth, and gave Ricken a smile. "Thanks," she said, her mouth full of fish. She waited until she swallowed before continuing. "Oh, you know, the normal stuff. It's becoming harder to find time in the day to terrorize a village, but I can do other things instead of terrorizing villages." 

She shrugged, leaning back onto the grass with her arms spread out. "Aren't you already super helpful though? Magic seems to be pretty helpful, if I say so." 

[ylissestactician]

[ylissestactician]

Robin held up his hands in front of him in a sign of peace for her to calm down. “Okay, okay, that’s fine… we can both look through the millions of fields that could possibly exist and try to find the snake there. It’s highly possible.” His voice couldn’t keep out the dry tone no matter how much he tried, but he was still understanding of the whole situation. Mostly. “Look, what was the last thing you recall about the field?”

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Well, I know it had grass and..." Nowi became silence as she tried to recall the details of the field. "Maybe it was actually a forest or something? Or maybe it was behind your tent? You know, I don't completely remember."

Gr. 7 - Starting with the wrong foot

This couldn’t be happening to her. Not this, not now.

Maribelle was ready to enjoy for a bit of plebeian festivities. She made up her mind to enjoy her first festival up close, but to her concern, she couldn’t find Robin anywhere to enjoy it with him as they said they would some day. ...

She didn’t see the wooden caravan with imported goods from exotic lands that was coming towards her until it nearly knocked her down. Letting out a high-pitched shriek, she managed to dodge it before the caravan could hit her, but she stepped wrong and fell, rolling on the floor, and gaining some muffled laughter of the close bystanders that managed to infuriate her. How could dare they, laughing at a person who nearly had to face a horrible fate.

"You… you nasty, mangey rats! I hope that, if such a thing happened to any of you, neither of you get any help and get swallowed by the mud you come from!", she roared, trying to stand up and regain a little of her dignity. But she couldn’t. The caravan’s proprietor, however, was the only one who had the decency to approach her like a proper human being would do, worried for her well-being.

"I’m so, so sorry! Are you alright, miss?" The merchant seemed genuinely embarrassed and mortified for the events, but it couldn’t placate the noblewoman’s humiliation and wrath.

"I could be if you happened to warn me first, sir!" She tried to stand up once again, without any success doing so. Something was wrong: her ankle felt swollen, like she… like she twisted it. Her face turned pale. "Oh, goodness… why does this had to happen to me in a day like this?"she whinged, trying to make use of her parasol for at least make an effort to rise on her good feet, refusing the merchant’s help, just for the sake of her own pride. Instead, her eyes looked around to see if someone she knew was nearby. She happened to spot the little girl of a thousand years old named Nowi, widening her eyes and trying to make a gesture to get her attention. 

She was going to need the help to walk, after all.

"Nowi! Nowi, here, please!"

[yourfavoritedragon]

Nowi was having the time of her life, mostly. When they had came across a village throwing a festival for whatever reason Nowi practically jumped for joy. It wasn't everyday that a village invited them to join in on the activities after all. Nowi's first thought was to grab someone and drag them along to the various games that would surely be there. Of course, while thinking of who would be the best partner, Nowi found that she had wandered from the shepherds without realizing it.

She figured she would eventually meet up with them later, so she decided not to worry about it too much. It wasn't like she could get lost in a village as well. Nowi came to multiple stands that offered games and food as she wandered around the village, admiring the trees that surrounded the village whose leaves were red and gold. 

"Nowi! Nowi, here, please!"

She heard her name being called and looked around for the source. She spotted Maribelle, gesturing, near a merchant and smiled and waved at the troubadour. She walked over with a bit of a spring in her steps.

"Oh, Maribelle! Are you having fun? I think this is the first festival I've seen that has this many things in it!" she said when she was close to Maribelle. Nowi examined the noble woman to see she was trying to use her parasol as a cane of sorts. "Did something happen? Too much fun or something? You seem..." Nowi trailed off with an unsure expression. 

[yourfavoritedragon]

I'm sorry to those I unfollowed! My dash was getting really hard to shift through and I was getting overwhelmed and sob

It had been a usual day around camp, with the Shepherds spending most of their morning training and strategizing for their next battle.  After a long session of practicing his magic, Ricken had worked up an appetite.  He decided to take a little break and get something to eat.  As he was putting away his Fire tome, an idea struck him.  But first he would need to collect some firewood and fish…

After gathering the necessary supplies, Ricken constructed himself a little campfire using his fire magic to light the flame.  When the food was done cooking, he removed his hat, stretched out on the grass, and took a bite of his creation.  Just after he had put a large chunk of fish in his mouth, he heard footsteps approaching him from behind.  Curious, he turned around to see who the person might be.

[yourfavoritedragon]

Nowi found herself wandering around camp with an empty stomach. She could faintly fishy smell with her hypersensitive manakete senses and decided that would have to. She followed the scent into a clearing where she saw a giant mage's hat and a young boy mage on the grass. Curious and hungry, she walked closer until she could see the cooked fish.

"Hey, aren't you going to share?" Nowi said before plopping herself down onto the grass next to Ricken. "It would be selfish if you just ate that by yourself, you know!" She resisted the urge to just take the fish and run.

"Hah?!" Robin looked incredulously at the girl who could transform into a dragon and breathe fire of all things, stuck to his arm. He decided to play along for the sake of her. "I’m sure I can fend off the mother snake for you… Where was it at?"

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Weren't you listening?" Nowi stomped her foot in a childish fit with a pout. "I said I killed the snake in the field. Don't you know where the field is at? You should, you're the tactician. I mean I could lead you there, but I forgot where it was."

"Feast on your bones…? What in the world…" The young girl came out from the bushes, her gaze full of confusion. "It’s Lissa, silly!" As tired as Lissa looked her voice was quite the opposite. She sounded curious, energetic even. However, the main reason why the girl was alone was because she was unable to rest. All the thoughts of killing others to stay safe really wrecked her sleeping schedule.

After a while of just staring at Nowi, Lissa finally asked a more sensible question this time. “So why are you walking about by yourself, Nowi? It’s dangerous, y’know?” Only a few moments passed after asking that question and she finally realized how hypocritical it was of her. After all, she was doing the exact same thing since she had the hardest of times getting any sort of shuteye tonight. With an awkward shuffle of one of her feet, Lissa was silently praying that the girl in front of her wouldn’t notice the embarrassment she had for that ridiculous question.

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Oh, but I can defend myself," she said as she reached into her garter pocket. "I have my dragonstone with me, of course." She pulled out the stone and showed it to Lissa. "So, I figure, if something comes out and tries to feast on my bones, I can just turn into a dragon and feast on its bones instead." 

She slipped the dragonstone back into her garter pocket and examined the girl, remembering she was a cleric. "But you don't have anything to defend yourself, do you? That's okay!" She gave Lissa smile.

"I'll protect us both! I'll eat whatever tries to eat us. Together we will be unstoppable!" Nowi laughed rather manically and loudly, probably waking up and alerting anyone in the forest.

Seth wandered from behind a tree, laughing to himself. “Never really been one for bone consumption.  Granted, I’ve always been curious what dragon tastes like, but I don’t want to eat their bones.”

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Excuse you?! Dragons, though they may look fantastic, taste terrible!" Nowi shouted. She paused, cleared her throat in an overly dramatic manner, and examined the man before her. "And I have never seen you before. That's kinda weird you hide out in a dark forest though, so I'm not sure if I really want to know who you are."

[chromms]

"That’s… a lot of demands. Nowi, maybe you should try and learn to cook some different things. That way you can have more than just candy, and uh, be responsible." Chrom obviously didn’t know what he was talking about and attempted a convincing grin.

[yourfavoritedragon]

Nowi looked unamused as Chrom made noises with his mouth. "Would you really trust me with cooking, Chrom? No one even trusts me with their money. I might burn the whole camp down. I mean I did burn a tent down once, but that was an accident, mostly an accident, but I burnt it down to the ground."

[ylissestactician]

[ylissestactician]

"Nowi, you have to at least try to find your dragon stone. It’s what you fight with," Robin sighed in frustration but tried another approach. "Why don’t… I help you go look for it?"

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Really? You would help me look for it?" She looked at Robin as if he was her savior. Her eyes were practically worshiping Robin as he stood before her. Suddenly, she grabbed his arm and clung to it. "I think I lost in the field where I used to to kill that one snake. I'm afraid its mother snake will be there, looking to kill me to avenge its child."

[ylissestactician]

[ylissestactician]

"That dragon stone should be your most important item in your possession, and you’ve lost it. Not even once, mind you, but AGAIN." He rolled his eyes and crossed his arms in frustration. 

[yourfavoritedragon]

"I lose things all the time! Like money, and... my dragonstone, yeah. Haven't you lost things from time to time, Robin?" Nowi chortled and playfully slapped Robin on the back. "Besides, I usually find things eventually. It's only a matter of time before it turns up and I'll have it in my garter pocket again.

All was quiet in the Shepherds' camp, except for the fire crackling faintly. Everyone was asleep, or making their rounds in watchman duty. The night was still young, Nowi thought as she decided not to join the others in bed just yet. Things have been uneventful for Nowi, besides the passing risen attacks. Nowi couldn't say she was bored, but she was bored. Why do people sleep at night, she thought.

She kept glancing at the trees that surrounded them and thought she could take a stroll through the woods. Nowi wasn't exactly afraid of the dark, but she would probably cry if something jumped out at her in the dark woods. Regardless, Nowi felt a nighttime stroll was exactly what she needed to pass the time until she felt tired enough to pass out.

And so, she happily skipped into the dark forest and lost herself as she went on a journey to find herself. When suddenly some leaves rustled their jimmies, Nowi stopped and started sweating nervously.

"Hello?" she called out. "Have you come to feast on my bones?"

[taciturnmyrmidon-blog]

"Change into a dragon?" She was like the Great Dragon girl, Myrrh. Interesting. She had thought Myrrh to be the last of her kind. "I am fast but I don’t think I can outrun a dragon… I guess we could… play house, though I don’t know how to."

She probably had the worst example of parenting ever thanks to her dad.

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Aw, no one seems to think they can outrun me..." Nowi frowned for a moment. "Oh well! House is where we play like family! And - uh... Do you want to be the little sister or the daughter? I don't really mind, so you can pick!" Nowi grinned and seemed positively giddy with excitement.

[ylissestactician]

[ylissestactician]

"… A GAME?!" He glared at the manakete intensely. "No one else was helping us get un-lost and you’re blaming it on the fact we were playing GAMES!" Robin looked at her annoyed as she searched. "And I suppose you lost your stone again."

[yourfavoritedragon]

"Ah, yeah? Probably. I seem to always be losing it." Nowi ignored his glare and shouting about games and stuff. "I guess I should keep better track of it, but you know, how could I live like that? It's better to live free than to live with the burden of keeping track of a stone. Am I right?"
