Thunder Dome Here our dreams aren't made, they're won

Within her life there was little to fear, if anything at all. She'd been brought up to never fear that which she did not know or understand, for presumptions had a way of looping back and biting one in the butt. Even things she did understand, things she knew were there to be feared, did not fill her veins with ice. It was only due to the manner in which she'd been raised that she was unfazed by the gloomy clouds massing within the sky. She was interested in them, as well as by the thought of learning what it was like higher up. More dangerous, she knew, but possibly more exciting, too. She was rather disappointed by the male's display, learning he would not trek any further than the point at which they stood. It would have been nice to have another set of eyes examine the peaks, even if they belonged to a total stranger, but it became apparent that she would have to wait to share the sight.

Asterr felt a pull in her chest, urging her to go past the tawny wolf and make more progress along the ridges, but she refrained from doing so. For the time being, she contained herself, though her gaze continued to drift off in the direction of the gathering clouds. It was clear she wished to explore, but her lack of movement would, perhaps, inspire confusion as to why she remained in place. Somehow, she'd missed catching a glimpse of Saghani, however her ears had cupped forward at the sound of retreating steps. She'd recognized her only as another who held no desire to travel to higher grounds, thereby categorizing the idea of communicating with the mystery being as off-putting. While the other obsidian woman had managed to carry on without so much as a glance from the dragon, Capriccio's appearance was unable to be ignored. The way she'd touched her shoulder to the male informed Asterr that they were familiar with one another, which led to a question forming in her mind—was the female a mute as well? Having no desire to test whether or not her words would be understood, she acknowledged the masked woman with nothing more than a nod of her head.
