The armour had been a gift from her family, and its make had been a little bit better than what most of the Bern rank and file got.

Gwen reached out, and rested a steadying hand on the scales of her neck.

More than the big man's rough appearance, he sounded Lycian. "That's a pretty fine looking wyvern you've got -- did you steal her recently?"
