OOC: Some of you might recognize the name and this first post. I did a thread with this on Senkinar and wanted to see what would happen. Feel free to join ;D
PTS: Magical... Just because the character is sort of magical.

The sun hung high overhead. The heat was easy to be seen rising off the sand of the small island. A large dragon lay wallowed in the hot sand of the beach. From a distance, she would appear to be just another sand dune, the colour was that close. If one had the eyes of a hawk, one would see two tiny figures nestled on other parts of the beach in the same manner; a green fire-lizard and the other was the same burnished gold as the dragon.
Just out of sight, under the shade of the few straggly trees, sat what appears to be young elfin woman. Also piled under the trees were some belongings and a riding harness. Rainlight sat comfortable in only her light shirt as she worked on mending a hole in her riding leathers. The shirt hung past her hips, protecting her from the sand at the same time leaving her cool. She hummed as she worked; a variation based off a song taught to her by her foster-mother.
The peaceful scene was shattered by the cry of Larie. The little gold darted to her mistress, too distressed for Rainlight to make any sense from what she was trying to tell her.
“You better not have been raiding farms again. I do not know if marks are acceptable in this world to pay for things.” Finally the elf had to turn to her dragon for help. “Rith? Can you find out what is making her upset?”<br>
Without moving the dragon replied within her mind. She saw someone here. A stranger.
“Where?” Rainlight asked curiously. No one ever came to this island. The waters around it were a dangerous maze of shoals and coral reefs. There had been a storm during the night though, with terrible winds and heavy rain. The heat today had made it seem like a dream.
Just over the ridge. Rith told her rider. Rainlight put aside the mending and stood. Taking up her knife, there was no sense in going unarmed, she went to investigate.
