They weren't here for some stupid scavenger hunt. They had to speak to the queen now! At this moment! He found himself scratching the floor before Aardwolf spoke up, stating that he had things from the desert that might intrigue Queen Ardent. Moments passed as the dragon pulled things out from his pouch; they ranged from jewelry to shiny knickknacks to even a strange sphere that was filled with water. He glanced up at Hummingbird, who looked at them with wide eyes. [b]"Oooo, so pretttyyyy,"[/b] she cooed as she reached out to touch the glass orb. As her claw tapped it, it rolled around and only amplified the patterns cast by the sun that shone through the glass. Her eyes flicked over the rest of the treasure, her smile only growing. [b]"I think Queen Ardent'll love all this stuff. But..."[/b] her eyes wavered to the highest platform, one that nearly reached the treetops. Skya followed her gaze, seeing that there was a line of dragons waiting to enter a hut made of vines and leaves. [b]"She looks really busy today, so maybe you can try speaking to her tomorrow."[/b] He couldn't believe his ears. Tomorrow!? Skua felt like roaring in the dragon's face, or taking her by the shoulders and shaking her until her head was set right. But he felt a wing brush against his back, and he turned to see Dreamseeker had stepped up to comfort him. [b] [color=614051]"That's fine. We'll wake up extra early so we'll be the first ones to see her tomorrow,"[/color][/b] she glanced at the rest of them. [b]"Yay!"[/b] Hummingbird turned a very bright shade of yellow. [b]"You can all stay here until then. There's enough food to go around. Oh, and enough hammocks, too!"[/b] Skua [i]still[/i] couldn't believe what was happening. Dreamseeker was treating this like a vacation, not an important mission. He turned to her, his mouth open to protest, but the look she gave him made him snap his jaw shut. [color=7ea7d8][b]"If no one else minds..."[/b][/color] he drawled out, unsure. [/color]
