Shieldwing couldn't help but grin a bit, tail lashing slightly in anticipation. He was excited; and why wouldn't he be? He'd heard all kinds of stories about Echo from Stargaze since the clutch came together. And there was a part of him that couldn't wait to see what made her so special. Plus, this was going to be a new kind of creature he'd get to meet; exactly the kind of thing he had been looking forward to: seeing creatures and beings that you just couldn't find living with the other dragons back in the capital. However, something he hadn't taken into account was just how bad the situation was going to be on her.

Shieldwing's excitement soon gave way to concern as there was a longer wait than he had expected. He glanced at the white dragon in front of them, and got a prompt response from her before he even got to ask his question. Luckily, the muck soon began to shift, and a form began to peak itself out from below. But then he caught a look in the Elemental's gaze. One that he was able to read as relief, but there was also a grimace...? Was it just from how much effort she was having to put forward to mee with them like this...?

He listened to Stargaze's question, but then also to Fell's follow-ups. Oh yeah, that's right. Fellwing's visions had mentioned something like this, including an injured dragon. But to the red dragon, there was something a bit more concerning for him....

[color=ED2939]"Er..."[/color] Shieldwing interrupted, moving to step forward again himself. [color=ED2939]"Maybe we should wait a sec before pelting her with all the questions at the same time. She's having a hard time as it is."[/color] He then shifted his attention back to the elemental. [color=ED2939]"I'm sorry, I don't think we've introduced ourselves yet, have we? My name's Shieldwing, and that's Fellwing. We're Stargaze's clutchmates, and we're here to fix things over here. There's another one, but he went off on his own...."[/color] Shieldwing's gaze fell slightly, but he quickly shook it off. [color=ED2939]"And the big, strong guy back there is Garrok, he's watching over us while we're here."[/color]

Shieldwing adjusted himself, standing taller, with his head held higher and wings tucked at his sides before continuing. [color=ED2939]"Is there a better way to talk? Or place? One where you might be a bit more comfortable? Like Fell said, we've got a lot of questions, but we don't want you to strain yourself or anything."[/color]
