:shock: - is soaked -

- Skyburner hurriedly dries Viarri with a breath of hot air -

Hmmm... do I smell pine needles?

- Skyburner laughs -

Oh right, I forgot you eat pine trees. :P

Burns the fire of dragons breath

Cannot afford to be weak
For they will have to travel far
Under the clouds and under star

Do not shrink at sight of mountains' peek
Nor shudder at snow and sleet
Push on with eyes alight and step fast
Draw your sword and set your eyes unto the west

Hidden in the cold, hard, forbidding rock
Is a door as old as key or lock
Amid the snowy, arching pines
That only true of heart can find"

Eating pine trees? o.O

- goes to get quote from story -

This is a conversation between Skyburner and Viarri.

Quote:
She felt that Sky had just killed a small rat and was feasting his jaws. She grimaced. Feeling her disgust he said: I must eat.
Yes… I wish you’d eat it cooked though.
His amusement touched her thoughts again. I am not able to breathe fire yet.
You’re not?
No, my flaimitha-
Your what?
My flaimitha. It’s an organ in the back of a dragon’s throat; that is where our fire comes from.
Oh.
Like I was saying, my flaimitha is not yet matured. I must eat ever green needles to help it along and exercise blowing smoke everyday.
Why do you eat evergreen needles?
That is what fuels a dragon’s fire.
How much do you need to breathe fire?
A single mouthful lasts about three months.
Good. That way we won’t be too disadvantaged if there are no evergreens nearby during a battle.
The more I eat the hotter the fire.
How hot can you get?
Hot enough to melt stone.
Viarri gawked. Stone?
Stone.

Congratulations, Viarrieinmr! :D Welcome to the ranks of the grammar-obsessed. ;)

Congratulations, Viarri. I remember being so excited when I first received editing capabilities. I was master of all typos and spelling errors! I was no longer helpless! :twisted:

It was so empowering that whenever I saw a typo on another website, I caught myself looking for the "edit" button. :rofl:


Same here! :rofl: It was torture being away from HW...I could no longer fix typos! I longed for an internet-wide edit button. :rofl:

Thank you, Viari, for being willing to take up this duty.

Be careful of your thoughts; guard your mind, for your thoughts become words. Be guarded when you speak, for your words turn into action. Watch what you do, for your actions will become habits. Be wary of your habits, for they become your character. Pray over your character; strive to mold it to the image of Christ, because your character will shape your destiny.

Ideas can germinate from the smallest seeds. Collect those seeds, and let them grow in the back of your mind. You may be surprised by what finally blooms.

When God takes something from your grasp, he's not punishing you. Instead, He’s opening your hands to receive something better. The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.
