Ooo, that’s so cool that they remember everything!

Oh, that makes sense (head jewelry 😉 )! And whatever idea you have, noticing drafts was clever 😀

“You…would have to be approved by the majority.” The girl named Rosario said haltingly. I raise my eyebrows. She seems to know what she is doing — unlike everybody else. They just go along without any trouble at all. The group she just organized is a good one. I can see they’re talking and getting along. I walk up to Rosario so I can speak without shouting and tip my head slightly, still watching Wylo out of the corner of my eye. That man; why is my whole family off of their rockers?

“I like the way you’re handling things, miss, but I have a suggestion. Maybe we should keep those dragon-people together. The she-beast gets a little wild, and it seems like her companion keeps her civil. They should stay together. And–” I lower my voice. “That fellow over there?” I jerk my head in Wylo’s direction, “I don’t suggest trying to get him to do anything. Just let him be; he’ll do what he likes.” I speak fast, partly because that’s how I talk, and partly because I’m trying to get my words in before she can inturrupt. I’ve had lots of practice, what with entitled officials and all.

“Who are you, and what are you doing here?!”

I spin around and see a girl with a sword held out in front of her standing on the other side of the cavern. I sigh. Yet another person who’ll learn she’s trapped and doomed to have to reason with these people. I turn back, but, suddenly, after quick conversation, the princess is in the middle of the room standing and staring at the ceiling. I glance up and see a shaft with light filtering through.

“We can get out of here. I’m not going into those passages blind, but I know something. Does anyone have something to burn? Fabric, sticks, anything.”

“First of all,” I drawl, “what are you planning to do? I won’t throw my pants into a fire unless I know it’ll work.”

Ok, I tried to get everything straight; it’s a bit complicated. Hope that worked! 😀
