Ankara watched M'yer exit with a serene smile, and laid down on the bed of
her apartment. Both of the girls were sleeping and she decided to enjoy her
quiet time while she could. 
	She had never realized how much work a dragon was, and she had two of the
very demanding beasts to take care of now. Her life was never going to be the
same. 

	Now she had a home, and a family of sorts, and even though they werent
nomad... or human for that matter they still loved her.

And then there was M'yer.. hmm there was a deffinate bond between them. He
diddnt seem to mind the fact that she had been taken by the raiders, in fact
he seemed to care for her and would prehapse someday ask her to be his mate.
Ankara couldent believe this, how could such a man find her attractive still?
Only time would tell what the future held.. but for now things looked to be
turning out wonderfully for Ankara and she wasnt about to look this horses
hooves over for rocks from the many roads she had already traveled.

She wondered what her father would have to say about her current situation..
What would he think about her alighning herself with such a powerfull tribe of
people? Ankara daydreamed about her father.. meeting him once again. Her tribe
had grown even more powerfull in her absence, and the Dragonlady had sent her
on a mission to trade with them..
Her father would open his arms wide and take her into a big hug, and then they
would have a long talk where she will tell him her whole long tale of what had
happened to her since her abduction from the tribe. He would tell her that it
was alright.. that he forgave her for her weakness.. and then he would call
M'yer into the room and offer him a fair dowery and M'yer would offer a fair
bride price.. and then.. Ankara hugged herself allowing the daydream to
continue for a few moments before she finally went to sleep dreaming about her
family.

Eness woke up and poked Ivee with her muzzle, Ivee grumbled and pulled her
tail up tighter around her eyes. Eness looked around the room and saw two
legger of Ivee's sleeping on the big soft thing.. she poked her too, but she
just rolled over and made a soft noise that Eness diddnt understand.

  Eness felt a grumble in her tummy, she felt hungry again.. and seeing no
food, she decided to go look outside.

Eness stood on the low ledge outside of the apartment her neck craned all the
way up, watching as more dragons than she even knew existed began to take
flight over the warren, and after they reached a decent altitude and leveled
off dissapeared.

Eness's head swung around as she tried to look at everything at once. There
was so much to see, and she felt so small out in the open by herself. Nearbye
there was another dragon.. a opalecent dragon that was smaller than Eness's
mother, but much bigger than Eness or any of her siblings.

Eness wandered over to where she sat watching the sky's sadly. Eness poked her
with her nose and projected the feeling of hunger.. raw, painfull hunger.

The bigger dragon looked down at her with surprise and said some things to her
that Eness diddnt understand.. they made more sense than what the two leggers
said with there mouths but she still diddnt understand them. Eness only
understood there questioning tone, and she repeated the feeling of hunger. 

  The bigger dragon lowered her head and gave Eness a nudge wich made her fall
backwards onto her tail. Eness felt and heard a soft laugh that was not
unkind, before she lunged out and snapped at the bigger dragon in anger
feeling her jaws connect with flesh.

NRPG-
okie, John.. either Eness bit Triss's tail or something equally harmless, or
she accidently bit her own toungue.. have fun with it.. if anything happens
Ankara and Ivee will both be sleeping and may not respond quickly.
