Large eyes glinted at her like saucers dipped in molten silver. Pale grey horns towered over the beasts head, faint blue stripes making the things look like serrated knives. Her mouth was as dry as a bone as she stood stock still, staring at the large reptilian creature like a cornered rabbit. Its gaping jaws slowly closed shut before its nostrils flared, inhaling the girls scent and analyzing the threat she posed. The small girl held no weapon, and didnt smell much like a human, her formerly yellow cloth clothing was torn to expose her midrift, the fabric was wraped around her right wrist, clearly she had injured it at some point. Her long brown hair hung in a tangled mass of tiny braids all tied up high at the back of her head. Her leather boots rose to her knees, the gold stitching had come loose in places and there were white scuffs surrounding the points of her toes. Without thinking the girl slowly raised her hand to the beasts nose, its flinty eyes watching her hand. The girl bit her lip as her hand hung in front of its nostril, she could feel the moisture and heat that followed each exhale of the mighty reptile. A gasp split the silence as the beast rose from its resting position, standing impossibly tall before turning sharply and emitting a deafening roar before charging noisily off toward a river that lined the territory between the Mat'junea and the Mat'larun. The girl sat down, shaken and flustered, watching the giant beast dip its head repeatedly into the clear water before tipping it back to swallow. With a shaky breath the girl looked into the trees to her right, her leather garments hung from various branches surrounding a small circle of soot stained stones. A thin mattress that was little more than a blanket stuffed with old wool lay haphazardly in a small indent surrounded by the exposed roots of a tree. Steeling her resolve the girl rose to her feet and set out to circle around toward the river where the dinosaur was now fishing without much success. With slow but relaxed movements she removed her boots, rolled up her pants, and slid into the water up to her waist, taking care not to suck in her breath noisily and cause the nearby reptile to flee. With experienced golden eyes the girl waited in the water until she felt fish nudging her toes, with fluid movements her arms shot down into the depths, closing around the scaly fish before hauling it out of the water and tossing it to the bank. She quickly darted out of the water and and dispatched the fish with a quick blow to the head. Her eyes darted over to the lazing reptile, its silver eyes trained on her. With yet another slow movement the small girl approached the granite colored beast, its pale sapphire and dull white grey stripes marking its thick skin. The girl now stood an arms length away from the dinosaur, the lifeless fish in her hands, water running down her pale arms. Avoiding staring the reptile directly in the eyes the girl adjusted her grip before hanging the fish gently in front of the beasts jaws. With a tentative sniff the monster opened his jaws. The girl gently tossed the morsel into the reptiles cavernous mouth before taking a cautious step back. The girl headed back into the water, she wasn't sure if the dinosaur would stay here and keep eating from her, but either way she needed to get some food for herself. She had left her home town trying to prove herself as the warrior she desperately wished she was and now she lived off of whatever food she managed to catch for herself, it was a hard life but one she was determined to live until the day came when she would ride a majestic beast back to her hometown, proving that just because she had grown up with no parents if her own, she would not be limited by their absence.
