[from here.]

Horses are unsettling and harpies are dinner - we come from very different worlds, you and I. Do I dare ask why they horses unsettle you? They're so pretty. [ she hasn't seen the bog unicorn yet. and taking note of the halla being sacred. taking note of all bestiary being classified into 'food' and 'not food' over here.

notes - they are being taken. ]

Are they out and about that it would be easy to meet them, or are they in the wild?

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Have you centaurs in your world? If so, horses look like malformed versions of them. Where you expect to see a torso, there is only a head.

The dragons live out in the wild. Wise of them, as there are fools who would hunt them for mere sport.

As I understand it, they were nearly extinct before the turning of this century.

It's no wonder, if there are people out here hunting them down for sport! Is there nothing being done for conservationism?

[reparo]

You don't need to answer that - I mean, you can, but I'm not pointing blame at you.

[reparo]

Sorry, what's your name?

[allthatgleamsisgold]

I've been here only a few month so I am unsure of the specifics. Someone in Orlais studies them - perhaps they may also be responsible for their rise in numbers.

I am Vlast. What are you called?

[reparo]

Hermione Granger - it's a pleasure. I've also only just arrived, in case it wasn't blatantly obvious by the way I immediately ruffled feathers.

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Why? Because you drew a line in the sand? That you will not be cowed into subservience? Let them ruffle and squawk. It is only noise.

[reparo]

Are you also a mage?

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Whether or not I am is irrelevant. Be it Tevinter mages or southern Templars, I have no intention of being bridled and collared like some pet.

And from your own words, neither do you.

If people find that unreasonable, that is their own failing.

[reparo]

Categorically and emphatically no, I am not going to tolerate either of those.

[ Once upon a time in Akhuras, a friend of hers used a similar language, his booming voice declared he would not be caged. It's funny that she's thinking about it right now, since Wrathion's reaction had been motivated by her mentioning the dragons in her world being kept on a reservation.

Very funny. Moving on. ]

Thank you for all your replies, Vlast.

[allthatgleamsisgold]

Good. We are well met then, Hermione.

A strange thing to thank someone for though.
