Pomona had been urging Pavetta to exercise more, but the young dragon was not exactly the most encouraging of fitness coaches. You are getting fat, Pomona insisted innocently, after prodding a tender spot on Pavetta's plump flank. Lazy. Need more exercise..

And that is how the pair came to be in Eluetheria Plain…exercising.

Pavetta’s breathing was more labored than she would like to admit (much to her chagrin), her limbs already numb with exhaustion. But if felt good. It was hard. It had been a long time since she had challenged herself physically and the elation thrumming through her veins gave her heart wings. She had not felt so free of worries in some time. Not since she and Pomona had found one another.

They had fallen into an easy sort of rhythm, as if they had known each other their entire lives, instead of just a few short weeks. They shared the same fire and passion of youth, the same sense of adventure and longing for new places and new people. It was almost as natural to hear Pomona’s wind-chime voice in her mind as it was to hear her own thoughts; as easy as breathing.

Which at the moment, was not particularly easy. Pomona soared overhead effortlessly and Pavetta could not help thinking that this exercise regimen seemed a little one-sided. Sweat-lathered her flanks and neck as she galloped through the autumn grass, frost biting at her ankles and underbelly. The foggy morning was crisp and cold, but Pavetta found she was thirsty, thirstier than she should be.  I need to stop, Pavetta said to Pomona at last, staggering to a slow walk.  

Water ahead! Pomona flipped happily in the air and soared on ahead, leaving Pavetta behind in a huffing, sweating mess navigating through a tall grass maze.

By the time Pavetta reached the water source, Pomona was already swimming happily and contentedly in the small pool, blowing bubbles and chortling to herself. But it was not just any pool…no…Pavetta frowned. A feeling of wrongness in her heart, of ancient and otherworldly power. It was like the time she had witnessed the sun god’s rebirth on the mountain. Her throat burned now, aching for a drop of water…No, I mustn't...she found herself at the water’s edge, staring into the depths…

And before she knew it she was drinking deeply.

@pavetta has rolled a 1! She has been awarded the common Agora item energy shot for interacting with the pool.
