SINIB:
Thorra
"It's no game." Thorra replied. "I think we just had a terrible misunderstanding." Lightning coursed along the woman's bare skin, gathering around her, making her glow with the blue of plasma. "I don't wish to add to my sin unless I have to." She readied her hammer, but made no further moves beyond that. Tears boiled away from the heat and she stared right at the dragon's green eyes. "In my world, dragons are evil creatures who are created as a result of greed or destroy the roots of the world tree. Tell me, O' great tree-dragon, what are your origins?"

Sage
"A misunderstanding? Evil world devourers?" The dragon's head snapped in Thorra's direction, but this time she made no move to strike. No, she appeared far too busy attempting to stow away the precious treasure the living hammer had pushed toward her. "I am guardian of the great forest, without whom man might tear down all that is green and good. There I was born, and there so was he - until you made him die."
A deep rumble escaped the beast's throat. "Surely, you do not expect mercy merely because you 'misunderstood?'"
SINIB:
Thorra
Before Sage could even finish asking her question, Thorra had already defiantly spat out a responce.
"OF COURSE NOT!" She roared. "I"m going to make what was wrong right!" The goddess thumped her chest with her fist. "I'm going to figure out how to bring him back! I swear it upon my father's name!"

Sage
The dragon, and the multitudinous lifeforms she had invoked into action, stilled as Thorra's words echoed louder than thunder could. That great forested figure descended with a creaking and a cracking to the ground, slowly, and drew close once more the prodigious prize of power which the demigoddess had relinquished. Sage's glowing eyes considered it, then her, and then it again.
"We shall see to the sincerity of your oath soon enough, then."
A thick cloud of acrid smoke escaped Sage's mouth and nostrils, and obscured all vision of her. In her place she was soon once more the green-haired elven maiden from before, and she stood in a fine dress of leaves holding the leggings in her arms. Her eyes, now red, glared up at Thorra as if challenging her to show her craven nature by attacking now.
SINIB:
Thorra
Thorra's responce was simple. She crouched down on the ground and lowered her head. "I will be sure to work hard to earn your forgiveness."
Despite her oath, she had absolutely no idea of where to start for such a quest.
