^†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ the humidity in the cave air condense ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†^
¤^†~:¨¨¨¨¨ into droplets in the roof of the hall, ¨¨¨¨¨:~†^¤
&¤^†~:¨¨¨¨ and is then slowly carried down the ¨¨¨¨:~†^¤&
@&¤^†~:¨¨¨ arches, where the drops melt together ¨¨¨:~†^¤&@
#@&¤^†~:¨¨ ¨ until they're finally to heavy to ¨ ¨¨:~†^¤&@#
##@&¤^†~:¨ cling. a few seconds in the air, then ¨:~†^¤&@##
#@&¤^†~:¨¨ they hit the crystals that have invaded ¨¨:~†^¤&@#
@&¤^†~:¨¨¨ ¨ ¨ the stone floor. ¨ ¨ ¨¨¨:~†^¤&@
&¤^†~:¨¨¨¨ ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨ ¨¨¨¨:~†^¤&
¤^†~:¨¨¨¨¨ the crystals are scales, from the ¨¨¨¨¨:~†^¤
^†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ dragon. they look like ice, but they ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†^
¤^†~:¨¨¨¨¨ are not. dragon scales are made of nail ¨¨¨¨¨:~†^¤
&¤^†~:¨¨¨¨ tissue, and on the dragon that made ¨¨¨¨:~†^¤&
@&¤^†~:¨¨¨ these, it is heavily infused with ¨¨¨:~†^¤&@
#@&¤^†~:¨¨ quartz. in the faint light of the cave, ¨¨:~†^¤&@#
##@&¤^†~:¨ they shimmer pink and teal. ¨:~†^¤&@##
#@&¤^†~:¨¨ ¨¨:~†^¤&@#
@&¤^†~:¨¨¨ the dragon is translucent like the ¨¨¨:~†^¤&@
&¤^†~:¨¨¨¨ scales, and as it lies in the middle of ¨¨¨¨:~†^¤&
¤^†~:¨¨¨¨¨ the hall it looks little more than a ¨¨¨¨¨:~†^¤
^†~:¨¨¨¨¨¨ bump in the pile. when awake, when ¨¨¨¨¨¨:~†^
¤^†~:¨¨¨¨¨ soaring, it becomes a facet of the sky ¨¨¨¨¨:~†^¤
&¤^†~:¨¨¨¨ itself. but here and now it is asleep, ¨¨¨¨:~†^¤&
@&¤^†~:¨¨¨ and dreaming. ¨¨¨:~†^¤&@
