Denna grinned and climbed on Tasarin's back. the morning breeze felt wonderful against her skin and it took her a moment to answer Tasarin as she was too busy enjoying the air. "some berries would be nice." she nodded her head, calling into the wind so he could hear. over their time together Denna had to yell against the wind less and less. she and Tasarin had improved their bond over the past few months, and though she still had to speak her words for them to be heard, she no longer needed to be quite so loud on a flight. her goal was to exclude the need for words completely. the old stories she had been told as a child spoke of a proper dragon and rider being able to keep contact without needed spoken word. Denna intended to make her bond with Tasarin strong enough to do that. she enjoyed speaking with the dragon, but she was sure the people from the Volcano, and others most likely, would want to fight them at some point and Denna wanted to have the upper hand. if she could communicate with Tasarin through her thoughts then they would be much harder to fight. not that she wanted to get into fights, but she wanted to be prepared.
Denna had also been practicing her control of metal when she could. while she still had a long way to go before she had control like the boy with the fire whip, she was much better now. she could even shape the metal into spears, or knife like shapes and throw them without even touching them. it was definitely a handy tool to have, though she proffered to Practice a good distance from anyone, in case she lost control.
"some deer might be good too." Denna added answering the last part of what Tasarin had said.

Mathias was grateful he had been allowed to stay and did not with to be on the dragoness's bad side again. today, Mathias opted to go looking for Corrin. in his time with the others he had grown fond of the little male dragon. he stuck his hands in his pockets, looking for the dragon.
