<span style="font-style: italic">The aged dragoness regarded the pair with a mixture of pride and approval as they introduced themselves, particularly the female. She showed of good breeding as did the other that accompanied her. It was a relief to see that that the young were still taught their manners and to show respect.<br/><br/><span style="color: #4040FF">"You were taught well, Tanith." Maelstromme replied with regal, yet respectful tones. "It is always a pleasure to see those so young who were taught well and keep the way. You too Lune, are a fine representation of those who bore and raised you. I have been watching all that arrived with both approval and great interest. Good hunters, both powerful and strong, also intelligent and inquisitive.  Another positive I have noticed thus far is your ability to get along and work well with one another. That in itself is a great blessing. It is paramount to the survival of our race as a whole. "</span><br/><br/>She then fluttered her wings somewhat to keep her bodies own temperature at a minimum as she continued to speak with the pair. <span style="color: #4040FF">"You no doubt felt the pull to come here as I did. I never thought I would see such a place again in my lifetime. Not since I was a young-ling myself has such a place been available to our kind. Even in my day however, the place was not as grand as this one. It seems we have come to a true dragon paradise. I, for one, hope it continues to be this peaceful and plentiful for us all."</span><br/><br/>She looked to them and gave them both a fond look, changing the tone of the conversation to get to know them a little better. <span style="color: #4040FF">"So, where do you both hail from? What sort of family life did you lead? It would be both an honor and a pleasure for you to tell me your stories indeed!"</span></span>
