Qilby jumps in surprise, partly at whatever had suddenly fallen on their heads but equally at Luke. Kid's fast-- faster than he might've estimated. As tall as he is, he doesn't even have to crane his neck to see over the boy, and as the dust clears and he gets a better look at the still mass...]
Goddess. [It certainly is a dragon. Shiny black scales, huge talons, and heavy armored tail and all. It's so much fiercer, so much wilder looking than the dragons he knew, that he can't help but stare at it in awe for a moment, gripping his injured shoulder unconsciously.
His attention quickly snaps back to Luke.] Wait a moment, I don't think--
[The dragon stirs, one yellow eye snapping open and focusing on the two of them. Immediately, it starts thrashing, tail whipping around so quickly the air whistles in its wake. In spite of himself, Qilby grabs for Luke's shoulder to pull him back out of thumping range.] He's confused-- he must think he's still fighting!
