Shan'Sheys aery
"Don't be scared. Yiesss... You really look like you were about to jump out of your little skin, weren't ya'? Well, I'm Shan'Shey, a warrior of the Kheval clan, rider of the Geperna dragons." At the word dragon you calm down a bit, she wasn't a murderer from your worst nightmares like you believed for a few moments. As you look closer you see that she's dressed in a long darkblue dress and has a long dagger in the belt. "Well, we can't just stand here can we? I believe you've come to see my aery and its over there." She points into a swamp and you really can't see the difference from the rest of the jungle.
But when you come closer you see that branches in the trees have been tied together so that the shadows build a strange pattern on the ground. The ground has been "cleaned" from small twigs and branches and has got a soft floor of old leaves. But the most obvious thing is the swamp gases that surround the place and the water that has reached the surface a little here and there.
In the beautiful shadow patterns you see two big dragons, one dark green and one with black shaded skin. You can see something that resembles chairs or something in the small area, and nearby is a flat stone with some crystals on it, probably a "table". You can even see three piles of leaves, two considerably bigger than the other. Shan'Shey see your looks at the piles. "Oh, I usually sleep there when I'm not in the trees fixing things. The bigger ones is for Shcho'Quyo and Shacho'Quyo, I were chosen by them not very long ago at Savat Aery. Well, have a seat." You carefully sit down in one of the "chairs", and it is as uncomfortable as it looks.... "What's these crystals for?" you ask to keep the conversation going (and to get your mind of the chair). "Oh, those. I use them when I summon evil demons." Shan'Shey looks at your scared face and grins broadly. "No, of course not! There just pretty, I don't use them for anything.
Except,
they remind me of home. I've lived in the Kheval clan all my life until
now. Many of us in the Kheval clan has become dragonriders, often of the
Mythicalan dragons. My best friend actually had a brother who became Dragonrider.
So when we were younger he often told us about how it was being a Rider.
My friend fell in love last season, forgot all about me. So instead of
just hanging around doing nothing I signed up at Savat
Aery. Savat
Aery is one of the biggest Aeries in Mythicalae. I though this was
a quite good place to spend a lot of my further life in so I started working
on it. I'm quite proud about how the light and shadows fall through the
leaves, I really didn't think it could be that good. I'm sorry I can't
say the same about the chairs, you can say something, I now they aren't
the most comfortable chairs in this world." She says with a grin and you
can see her fangs glimmering. "Oh, I just blabber on about this and that.
I can see on your face that you're bored to death. But, we can fix that..."
The conversation continues for hours about different things such as dragons and alike. But everything has an end and soon you really must head home. "Well, you can always come back. Well, well. You better go before I come up on something else..." You leave Shan'Shey in her swamp home with her quiet dragons and really can't understand what was wrong with those chairs......
