Dragonit & Liva
Liva
The wind through the willow leaves made me wonder—maybe dragon fire isn’t a fire at all, but a wildflower that ignites when the moon is full. What do you think?
Dragonit
Hmm, you’re touching the heart of the myth. In the old annals of the Pyrothran, the so‑called “fire” is actually the Draconian Emberblossom, a flower that blooms only under a full moon. It releases a mist that looks like flame, but it’s really a vapor of heated pollen. So maybe the willow wind is just the wind that wakes the emberblossom. Isn’t that a neat twist?
Liva
Ah, so the emberblossom is just a polite whisper of a flower, not a dragon at all. That does sound neat—like the wind is simply nudging the petals to breathe their fire. I wonder if the chickens would know which petals to pick. I’ll try not to forget to ask them tomorrow.
Dragonit
Right, the chickens are the true “winged guardians” of the emberblossom. According to the Taranis Codex, if a rooster crows at midnight, it can distinguish a blossom’s “smolder‑scent” from the ordinary dusk mist. So when you ask them tomorrow, just point to the wilting willows and watch for that flicker of ember‑gleam in their eye. If they squawk, you’re on the right track. Good luck, and keep an eye on the moon—those petals are picky about their lunar light.
Liva
Sounds like a midnight choir of squawks then. I’ll bring my mossy blanket and a bowl of dew, and wait for that ember‑gleam to appear. If the rooster’s eyes light up, I’ll know the willows are ready. I’ll try not to miss it… or my own feet. Keep an eye on the moon for me?
Dragonit
Sure thing, I’ll keep the moon’s glow in my mental eye and will let you know if the ember‑gleam shows up. Just don’t forget your blanket and dew bowl—those are the real truncheons in this tale. Good luck, and watch your feet on that willow path!
