Zuko knew something was wrong the moment she opened her eyes, and instinct made her try to leap to her feet to face any attackers. Her still-healing body protested, and with a wince she only managed to sit up.

Looking about her, she quickly discerned that there was no one in sight, and nothing familiar. She had been in the palace, but now she sat outside, not even the walls of the caldera rising up around her.

Her swords were nearby, and though she was in no condition to wield them, she slung them up over her shoulder before pushing herself to her feet. She stifled a groan with the motion, one arm hugging her ribs. When it passed, she looked out ahead of her and froze.

"What..."

She was on an island... in the air. She had never had a dream this vivid, but it had to be a dream, right? There was no way this was real.

Maybe it is a dream, then, since that is the shadow of a dragon falling over the scattered remnants of land. Heavy wingbeats fill the air, and Paarthurnax soon lowers himself down to the earth with his large eyes focused on the young girl.

He's certain different than the dragons Zuko might know... Less colorful, body not as elongated (although that neck is nearly close enough), and with two clawed feet. One horn is broken somewhat, and there are some things tied about the other one. What look like to be small charms of sorts, and a brightly glowing little crystal shard...

"Peace, young one." And yes the dragon is indeed talking, voice low and calm. "I mean no harm."
