The ancient dragon swept low over the snow-covered plains of the Sionad Tundra. She was on the hunt looking for food in the form of tundra animals. Zy'raxas was starting to grow weary of the lack of wildlife in the area, and decided to make her way further south to see what lay there, in the Sirantil Valley in the nation of Connloath. Finding a large patch of tall grass near a smooth flowing river, she swooped lower, crystalline wings spread out before making her landing with a loud thump!

There was a deer grazing nearby and seemed to just now notice the dragon, brown eyes wide in fright before taking off at a sprint. Or tried to at least. Zy'raxas was much quicker and of course larger, so she covered the space between them in only mere moments. Letting out a blast of light from her huge maw, she disoriented the deer and make short work of it with her powerful talons. Now, as she sat munching on her much needed meal, the crystal dragon took her time to eat and enjoy the sights around her. Normally she took her kills back to her cave, but this time she couldn't wait and the distance was now much further away. She was starving, not having had much to eat the last couple days. Apparently, poachers as well as hunters were on the rise in the tundra, leaving that much less for Zy'raxas herself to consume. Of course, there had always been such, just it now seemed there were far more of them than the dragon had recalled seeing before. While it was inconvenient, it was only a slight one as distance did not deter the great reptilian beast.

Finishing the last bite, the dragon gave a contented sigh, licking the blood off her mouth before looking around to see if she could spot any more sustenance coming her way. What she didn't expect to see was a humanoid shape walking about a quarter of a mile away from her position. While humans and humanoids were nothing spectacular or unusual around here, it was the hint of light green skin and dragon wings on the figure that peaked Zy'raxas' interest. Moving closer to get a better look, she saw it was indeed what she thought it to be. A half-dragon female wandering the lands. Her bright red hair was stunning and made her stand out even more from her surroundings. It seemed the dragon woman also had a light covering of scales on her body, but it was hard to tell for sure. Regardless, a meet and greet was in order here. The crystal dragon lifted herself high into the air again, before landing right in front of the half-dragon woman herself.

"Hello there. Who do I have the pleasure of addressing here?" Zy'raxas asked as she folded her wings neatly behind her back.
