[ The wyvern seems okay with this! She'll press her snout into Rita's hand. ]

My beautiful girl? A monster? Who would think that?

[overlimit]

She kinda looks like a dragon, so... most people?

[...except she's kind of endearing herself to rita pretty quickly??]

[shaft]

Do you think dragons are monsters?

[overlimit]

... I used to, I guess.

Then I traveled with one for a while, so...

[shaft]

A little exposure can change your perspective, hm?

What sort of journey were you on?

[overlimit]

The kind that started with a couple of research questions and somehow managed to snowball into saving the world.

[flatly, like, that was kind of inconvenient.]

[shaft]

Isn't that how it always is?

[ He grins at her. ]

And what're you saving it from? Annihilation?

[overlimit]

More or less.

[and ugh, she looks a little disgusted that this is apparently not surprising? how many people go through this shit?]

Humans were unwittingly destroying the planet, one guy tried to save it by killing us all, that kind of thing.

[shaft]

Ah, the righteous villain...

I'm dealing with something similar. An Emperor that believes she's changing the world for the better, and paving the way for it with blood.

[overlimit]

Seriously? Ugh. I'm guessing a good lot of the world isn't that keen on her vision?

[shaft]

More than two thirds of the continent, yeah.

[ He sighs. ]

I wish your journey a fruitful end, in any case.
