<strong>StarDancer Yintainia - Aislin Haven</strong><br/><br/>Yintainia sat in her cave entrance, her wide berth almost filling the opening entirely. The floor was covered in deep grooves from her repeated take offs and landings over the many centuries. She was beginning to get hungry and would have to go out to hunt before too long. The trek over the surrounding mountains was long and arduous, for someone on foot it would take them months to work their way over and around and between the mountains to get here, for dragons though it was a flight that would only take a couple hours. Still not a trip she took except when necessary. More and more frequently she was changing to human for to eat. It took a lot less food to fill her belly that way though ponder as she did on the matter for several decades she was not sure how filling her stomach while in human for provided enough energy for her dragon form when reverted. She had finally concluded it was a racial quirk. She wondered if it worked the same way for the were animals but had not bothered to ask.<br/><br/>She stretched out and laid down, her head gingerly resting on her front paws as she watched the valley below. She watched one of the dragoons fly down to the valley floor and decided to ponder the possible impacts the weres moving in could have on her life. Besides having to ignore of the meddlesome and curious from her den she was mostly worried that the humans would be attracted to this spot, that they may in some way find out of this sanctuary and destroy it, the fact that the men would have to come in foot and in single file for most of the trip comforted her, the length of time it would take them to get through the mountains even at a forced march would be ample time to spot them and toast them from above if they would not leave peaceably. She did not particularly like that idea though. If only these people would quit trying to kill one another they could achieve such great things.<br/><br/>On the downside the deep seclusion of this haven made it difficult for stragglers in need of protection to make it here. She had notified the dragoons that she would be willing to help carry located stragglers in across the mountains when needed. She wondered to herself what new breeds might become due to the new collection. Werepeople that were half human and one quarter of one were and one quarter of another? Of course she had also wondered what would become of a dragoon that bred with a mermaid but that one had not happened yet. She rather enjoyed her dark sense of humor. For now though she would watch.<br/>
