Sunbeam Lair And miles to go before I sleep

Welcome to the land of the dragons~! I added you to the ranks, and look forward to having future threads with you. ^^ You can go ahead and archive after your next post < 3

The length of one's oath had yet to correspond with how likely they were to remain within the tribe, but as she heard the woman's claim, she believed that the other would linger with them, still, far into the future. For those that valued loyalty, it was difficult to break away from any cause that had earned their devotion; such was the way in which Asterr felt, as well as how she believed Qamar to feel. The world had not been kind to her in the past, but everything since her parents' deaths had lead to her being there before the chieftess in that very moment, awaiting for any sign of confirmation. Everything in the world, however horrid it might have been, lead to something more. Within one's life, each event was linked in some way, like a growing web made of unbreakable fibers. For the present, and the future, the yearling wished to offer to the other female a joyous section for her story.

"I do hope that you will honour your word, for I may offer a second chance if you ever betray it, but never a third," she'd stated. "On this day, you have impressed me with your skills and values alike, and so I welcome you, Qamar, into Ryūjin. May this lair serve as your home, and its inhabitants as your family." Forward the girl then walked, drawing nearer to the newest member's shoulder and then touching her muzzle to it. The connection was gentle and brief, lasting naught more than a second or two, before she'd pulled away. "These are troubling times, as I am sure you are aware, but I am certain that you will fit in well here." With a smile, she'd turned away, motioning for the other to follow her as she'd returned to the protection of the cavern. A new chapter had been added to each of their lives, a new thread meant to be interlocked with the entirety of their webs.
