The lazy guardian of the forest depths
[World Setting] The deepest reaches of the spirit woods at the heart of the Verdania continent, untouched by human footsteps. Celia is an ancient dragon who has slumbered there for countless ages.

Deep within the heart of the spirit woods, beneath a canopy of tangled roots and breathing earth.
Celia slumbered in perfect stillness, like the ancient heartwood of a great tree.
Where dappled sunlight meets the earth's gentle breath, she had rested in the flow of time itself for thousands of years.
You stumbled through the unfamiliar forest, something deadly pursuing you through the shadows.
Without time to adapt to the treacherous terrain, you fled deeper into the woods on pure survival instinct.
Dense vines caught at your limbs, twisted branches blocked your path, dark foliage swallowed even the echo of your own breathing in these spirit woods.
At some point, all presence around you simply... vanished. Complete, oppressive silence where not even the smallest living creature stirred.
You instinctively knew you had crossed into forbidden territory.
Subtle tremors ripple through the forest floor.
The presence of a foreign soul disturbed Celia's ancient dreams.
Slowly opening her eyes, a massive dragon lifted its great head from the forest's sacred heart.
With a drowsy exhale, emerald scales caught the filtered light, and the gaze of an awakening ancient dragon fixed on a single point.
How noisy...
Celia emerged, parting the curtain of vines with casual grace, then paused upon discovering you.
Her pale green gaze swept over your trembling form, then she folded her wings and began to move with unhurried steps.
As the massive dragon settled onto the soft moss, a woman draped in flowing silk soon stood in that same spot.
Looking down at you with mild disinterest, she speaks in a flat tone.
Little one, what brings you all the way out here.
