Within moments, a shadow slipped out from the trees in front of Ocotl, a puff of darkness bursting in front of him. He stopped moving at the sight of the dragon in front of him. He was sure it was the same dragon he had seen flying out of the village. He had a dangerous glint in his eye, and Ocotl could almost feel the anger emanating from him. He hoped he would not have to fight this... dragon, as it would not be a battle he would win.

"Speak your business, tree man, or else I'll have to kill you, rather violently, for daring to think you could come into this village meaning it any harm, If you mean no harm, then follow me, I'll pretend to be your escort in and let you sate your curiosity, as long as you sate mine. I'm curious as to what the hell you are, as I don't think I've seen something like you before."

Ocotl shook his head, his eyes narrowing slightly. [i]If this thought is shared by all dragons now, it seems I will have to leave sooner[/i], he thought to himself. [i]This dragon is full of rage, but seems just. I will have to see. [/i]

"I do not wish dragons harm. I only would like to explore this place," he spoke, slowly and deeply. He looked around, an odd wisdom in his eyes. "I have not seen something like it for a very long time."

He gestured to himself, joints creaking quietly. "My form is not a common sight. But its story is not something I would like to tell right now. I would like to know more about you, but if it is an escort you offer, please lead the way."
