Jeanne:  "Your grumbling really is getting irritating, mister. Why don’t you make like a corpse and shut the hell up."

Kaito:  "You’re sitting in the saddle; you’re in no position to talk!" Kaito put forth no shortage of effort in making his objections known.

Vlad:  "Well, well, well, my dear successor, it seems that you’re growing accustomed to the skies. And isn’t that what’s really important here?" Vlad, who was floating beside Kaito, gave a light chuckle.

Kaito:  "Shut up! …But I, uh, I guess it’s not as bad anymore…" Still trembling, Kaito caught a glimpse of the ground below. The forest looked like a vast, vibrant green swath. Beastfolk, demi-human, human—it was impossible to tell whose territory they were above. Looking down on it from the sky, he felt land-ownership rights seemed almost petty and irrelevant. The red dragon’s body weaved back and forth as she continued her flight. It was unclear where their destination was, but she clearly seemed to have one in mind.

The light was the shade of ripe fruit, and it scorched its way into Kaito’s retinas. The majesty and splendor of it all took hold of his eyes and soul. It was a landscape he’d never gotten the chance to see in the closed-off life he’d lived before. Anxious as he was as to the nature of the red dragon’s destination, an uncharacteristic surge of excitement ran through him. Riding a dragon through the skies, huh… Man, just look at how far I’ve come! “Hmm.
