new dragons. All new dragons fly forward and declare your name.”
All, due to the unusual acoustics of the volcanic bowl, could hear Sindo. Eight young dragons flew to a spot just in front of Sindo, and each in turn trumpeted his or her name. The traditional fly around followed. Each one in turn flew up and around the entire bowl-shaped crater finally landing on the highest perches. After the final young dragon landed on her perch, all five thousand dragons trumpeted their approval. The sound was so great that it thundered over the humans’
domain and into the mountains beyond.
Sindo then called the meeting back to order.
“Is there any information to be passed?” he asked.
Several dragons flew down and described a volcano far to the south.
They thought it best to avoid the area. Another said that there was a rock fall in one of the passes that the jumping beasts used, and the jumpers had moved to another pass to the north. Finally, Dawra decided to talk. She flew to the talking position and started.
“My newly hatched daughter has a small young human pet.”
This was no great news since some young dragonettes tended to have a small pet during their first few sets of seasons.
“This human has a power of healing. He was able to heal my wing, and I think he could heal other dragons. If anyone needs healing, come to my cave.”
As usual, there was no response. Adult dragons were powerful beasts and rarely, if ever, sick. So her news of a human healer sparked little interest.
After the meeting, it was customary for the dragons to mingle and talk. Dawra asked around about the old legend. Several dragons suggested she talk to old Subina. She was the oldest known dragon.
Subina always attended these meetings and was sitting near a large rock. Dawra approached her and asked about the legends.
“Subina, I am Dawra, daughter of Fienna. I was told you might remember some of the old legends?”
“Oh, yes. I know some of them.”
“Could you tell me about them?”
“Of course, sit down. I so love talking to young ones about the past.”
Subina told Dawra a number of legends, but one caught her ear more than the others. She said that it was told a man would some sun-rising come and mate with a dragon, and the two would rule both the dragons and men. Subina thought it was such a foolish legend considering how small men were compared to dragons.
“Anyway, how would they ever mate? A man can’t fly,” said Subina.
The other legends she told were of little interest to Dawra.
The next week Dawra was perched above her cave on the top of the cliff sunning herself. The children were in the cave with Lowlack. As she looked over the sea, she saw a dragon approaching. It was Yellic.
Yellic was a female dragon, Dawra’s age. In fact, they had made their introduction flight together ten sets of seasons earlier. Yellic approached and landed beside Dawra.
“Greetings, Dawra.”
“Greetings.”
“I have come to ask you about this human your daughter has as a pet.
Can he really heal dragons?”
“Yes, he can.”
“My son Tepic was playing in a field and was badly injured by a young Tarmany before I could get to him. Do you think this human could help him?”
“Probably.”
“My son is in my cave; he is too badly injured to be moved. Could you bring this human to him?”
“He is below in my cave. Let’s get him, and we’ll fly to your cave.”
Dawra and Yellic flew down to her cave where Fienna and Terra were playing with Lowlack’s tail as he lay on the floor half-dozing.
Dawra called Fienna over and explained the problem to her. Terra immediately understood by their mental connection. He was ready to help, but Fienna didn’t want him to go. Finally, Fienna agreed if she went also. As normal, Dawra carried Fienna, and Lowlack carried Terra. The two dragons followed Yellic to her cave. There they found a small dragon, slightly younger than Fienna. It’s tail and back leg were torn open. It was
