Emerald Sea

eden watched her a moment, and glanced up to the two dragons circling the sky above, watching the girl as he slowly reascended into teh sky. He needed to tend a few of his wounds.

Mintra watched with a pleasant expression until they were gone. Then her face fell into expressionless state and the small ebony-haired girl walked off into the trees. It was a tiny shack, made from branches bound together with twine. However, it was well enough. She had even gone through the trouble of thatching the roof so that it wouldn't leak.

The girl knelt on the bed of heather, opening a large bag on the floor and rummaging around until she found a small shoebox. Mintra then sat on her bed, which was really just a mat, and pulled out a thread and needle. She quite nonchalantly began to stitch shut the cut on her thigh.

eden left the girl under teh watch of the two dragons, just not feeling right that a girl was all alone in the wilderness, soon home and tending to a festering poisoned wound.

Mintra wrapped the entire thing with a bandage simply to minimize her risk of accidentally ripping out the stitches and making the whole thing worse. The girl pulled out a thick and well-used journal, making a new entry. In this entry she recorded everything she had seen, had learned in the recent encounter. Which led her to a new goal. The girl went to the springs and washed, changing her clothes. She didn't have many sets, but then again, she was very selective about what she wore. It was all styled similarly.

As she sat there combing out her hair, her big eyes watched the circling dragons. She wondered why they were still there. Then she wondered if they would experience vertigo if they kept that up.

Eden was preoccupied as he was resting back in his bed, wiping a great mass of sweat off his forehead, panting slightly at the burn of the herbs upon his wound, wondering why such a foreign plant was all the way this direction. then, of course, he also kept in mind the fact that these dragons were sent to attack him.. so, yeah.

And then another thought occurred to Mintra. This one caused her to actually speak out loud, something she seldom did when she was alone.

"I wonder..." She was thinking about the poison sumac she had gotten in to earlier. The woman didn't react to it. She hadn't been made to. But... she knew the stuff spread by oil on skin. The girl was remembering how she had on a few occasions touched Eden's bare skin: a hand, an arm, a face. Was he allergic?

Fighting dehydration by night fall, Eden was currently alive and mobile by will power alone. However, that only went so far as he was now tending himself as best as possible, unable to believe how cold he felt as sweat poured off of him.

Mintra shrugged off the thought and went back to making herself dinner (eg. picking some berries and eating some dried venison). How was she to know what was going on? She was just waiting for some privacy. She sighed and looked up at the dragons.

"Are you ever going to go home? Don't you miss Eden?" Yeah, she had no idea, and it would probably remain that way unless something miraculous happened such as a magical spirit of the universe popping up out of nowhere to tell her or a dragon kidnapping her.

One of the circling dragons landed down beside her and stared at her as if she was a fool, and sat there, making it's self at home.

Yep, now she had a dragon in close proximity.

Mintra sighed softly and then pulled out her journal. The girl sat there and sketched out the dragon. Then, she stood up, slowly edging closer. She stretched out her hand, moving slowly with the intention of touching the creature's side. Eden wouldn't have left her with a dragon that would bite her hand off, right?

Post by **Tree** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 8:44 pm

The dragon merely sat there, watching the girl. What was the girl gonna do to hurt him, precisely? Stab him with her hair pin? ... With that little dragon like thought, he remained stationary.

Post by **Sushi** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 9:12 pm

Mintra ran her hands along the hide. When she saw how well the dragon tolerated it, she moved around, exploring the musculature. Eventually she ended up at the back, trying to see if she could lift even part of the dragon's tail.

Post by **Tree** » Tue Jul 06, 2010 9:13 pm

The dragon wasn't human, so therefore felt no guilt as it farted upon the girl inspecting it's tail, no caring as it knocked the girl over, merely watching her tumble to teh ground by the force.

At the first moment possible, Mintra got up, gasping in and running in search of fresh air. Amongst all those sketches and notes in her journal, she capitalized and underlined two words: NOXIOUS FUMES... with a little arrow pointing to the sketch's butt.

"Good grief, what have you been eating, Dragon Number Seventy-Two?"

Remaining stationary, the dragon had no inclination once so ever to even try to answer that. Food of course. But to be honest, this dragon was currently debating what to do with Mintra. Simply sit there and wait for ehr to figure out something was up? Or perhaps it should lift her off and make her deal with things.... Eden wouldn't like that...

Mintra recovered without ado, and then she gathered her notebook and pen, taking it back into her shack. She replaced the thing with her other journals and such, and eventually she walked back outside. The girl was now carrying a long bamboo pole with a string attached.

Settling down beside the spring, she readjusted the bandage so that it wasn't tugging on those stitches. Then, she cast out her line. Absently, she began to fish. She caught the first one before glancing at the dragon that was still behind her.

"There is no need for you to babysit me."

Yup, still no idea. How was she supposed to know? The girl just put the fish in her basket and cast out her line again.

Tail flop. That was the dragon's first reaction, then, after a small time, the dragon puffed smoke at her some, seeming to be growing bored of her ignorance. Would she hurry up?

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 1:01 am

Mintra didn't so much as glance up to the tail flop. However, to the second, she glanced up. The mini lady got up and moved, pressing her hands to the dragon's snout.

"No."

She said it blandly.

"If you have a problem with me, you can go home. There is no need for destructive behavior."

Well, now the dragon lost it's patients and opened it's mouth, scooping her up much as a mother wolf does a cub, and took to the skies with her, soaring off towards Eden.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 2:08 am

Mintra didn't bother to pretend with the dragon. She wasn't scared. The woman just watched what was happening as she was set down. Looking about, she eventually spotted a barely moving mass. The delicate woman moved, discovering Eden. Her big eyes took in his condition, and then they turned to the dragon.

"You're worried about him."

That was the conclusion she came to. Then, she rolled him just a little so that she could better see him under the light of his fire. She placed a hand on his forehead, drawing it away. Oh, alright. She might as well. He had helped her... besides, if she didn't return the favor then his dragon might eat her.

Mintra got up, and began her search for things she would need.

"Water..."

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 11:01 am

The dragon was quick to help with the water issue, looking over Mintra and Edenb, waiting, and watching. Fix him. That was this creature's biggest worry. Fix him.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 3:59 pm

Mintra had gathered some things from the surrounding area and now drew Eden out of the blanket and into the open. First, she lay a cool wet cloth against his feverish forehead. Then, trying to discover the issue... She casually as anything removed his shirt. The girl was very familiar with exactly how a body worked. She had to be for her own sake. So, soon having figured it out, the woman had opened the bindings and was letting his wound drain, the fluid awful in every way, as she coated it with a salve made from herbs to help draw out and combat any remaining. Who knew common things could be so useful? Then, she dipped some water into his mouth - changing the cloth to help with the fever.

However, she didn't have much of that pultice. She only kept a little bit on her person. She had some more in her house, but... The tiny girl eventually moved to Eden's side, looking it over. She debated whether or not to stitch it. Mostly because she didn't have her stitching stuff with her, Mintra decided just to bind him up.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 4:01 pm

Eden woke upon when she started to try and bind him, her little wrist caught in his hand easily. Eying the girl, he slowly let her wrist be, shaking his head.

" it's a bad idea for you to be here."

worse idea to talk though, that hurt like hell.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 4:29 pm

Mintra inhaled sharply, widening her eyes as to appear startled by the grabbing. Then, she picked up her gaze, looking at Eden.

"You helped me. Let me repay the favor."

The girl moved to try and bandage him again as she was released. She gave him a compassionate glance.

"I am not worried."

Besides, if the dragon had its way, she wasn't sure she could stay home even if she tried.

Post by **Tree** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 9:13 pm

Eden relaxed some, well, as much as the pain would allow, eyes closing. If she killed him, he would come back from the after life and let his baby dragon eat her.

Post by **Sushi** » Wed Apr 13, 2011 9:32 pm

Mintra finished up with him, just watching him lay there for a while. Then, she got up and walked over to the dragon. She reached out, petting its nose.

"I'm going to go try and find something for him to eat. Please don't eat me."
