Asthia lifted her right foot, bending her leg back behind herself, picking out a little splinter before stepping back on the ground, using her tail for balance the whole time. Like all of her kind, she didn't use footwear, but was used to walking like this. She also wore the light clothes common to female dracons, which was nothing more than a loincloth and a top. Still, it covered enough, and the Academy was in a fairly warm part of the world, especially in the spring and summer. 

"I'm from the Dracon lands, which are very far from here. I was told to come here for magical training. I guess you are one of the teachers? My name is Asthia, by the way. What's yours?" She was reserved, keeping her eyes on Zmerr.
