§§§§§§¨¨§§ 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. §§§§§§§¨¨§
