[center][h2][color=ed1c24]Viranti[/color][/h2][/center] [@Ryougu] While brushing some persistent bits of grass and earth from his person, Viranti caught ear of Ryuuga's concerned inquiry, the dragon's ears twitching faintly, immediately followed by his head rising and turning to him. "[color=ed1c24]Hm? I've suffered worse...[/color]" he said guilelessly, right before the man's follow up quip, to which Viranti merely frowned somewhat, a huff of heated air leaving his nostrils. He wasn't thrilled at what seemed like patronizing humor at his expense, but didn't feel like making a big deal of it. Most scenarios he possibly would, but now was different. He had just essentially been swallowed by a supernatural phenomenon and spat out in another world, so he was still dealing with that. Plus, the airship soon took up the lion's share of his attention and it's honestly a lot to take in. [hr]"[color=ed1c24]Air... Ship?...[/color]" Viranti repeated rather quietly to himself. It appeared that he was not the only one curious about the airborne contraption, but as odd as it was to him, he let his gaze leave it for the time being, instead directing it to the clear blue lake as the party drew closer to it. It was certainly larger than the lake he had encountered in the forest previously, the dragonute pensively studying every aspect of the body of water when he came near it. It was a wonder that there should be any conflict in a place like this with such plentiful water. He tilted his head to a small degree when he first noticed some scaly creatures drifting along in the lake, his eyes squinting, perplexed at the sight of them; his intrigue was less than subtle during the lake's traversal (whether that meant peering over the side of a bridge or eyeing them as he walked along the lake's edge). He's seen stranger critters, but none that resided in a pool like this. The dragon's tail perked up and waved about more than normal, himself wondering how these lake denizens would taste. But in the end, he arrived with everyone upon entering the city, glaring at the guards as he passed by. As so long as there isn't anyone foolhardy enough to start a fight, there shouldn't be a worry of him having to finish it. Within the walls, he found there was something about the city, its sights, sounds and scents, all having a certain hectic liveliness that marked it as profoundly different from Edivid. Viranti smirked, feeling more than a little restless as he looked from point to point. He could see himself easily swept away after prolonged exposure to this new kind of energetic atmosphere. But for the time being, he was set on accompanying the Oracle to meet with the queen.
