Retrieval

"Evening, Doane," Sigrid greeted him as she stepped into the large room and cast a suspicious eye at Shanku. "Has she been good?"

"Nary a bit o' trouble!" Doane said happily with a clawed hand raised beside him.

"I've been good! I swear!" Shanku said quickly. She wasn't sure if Sigrid really believed either of them.

"Come along, supper time," Sigrid ushered her out the door and looked slyly at Doane over her shoulder. "Dragons are messy eaters. You wouldn't want to watch."

"I be nought a bit messy, tank ye!" Doane huffed indignantly as the kurach giggled themselves out the door.

And so Shanku begin to repay her debt under the supervision of a glasscraft dragon. In the early mornings she would have breakfast with Sigrid and be put through a bit of training training. Mid-morning and the rest of her day would be spent fetching supplies for Doane. Once he even gave her a small, clear glass marble as a keepsake.

"Remembar dis da nex' time ye want ta take wha's not yaars," he told her with a wink.

Retrieval

Sigrid sure is mean tonight, no?

Loved drawing the goblet! Not sure if the top looks very glassy. Think I might've messed up on some shadows on the ground.

Chapter Notes:
My dragon fetish finally found its way into the comic properly. I was starting to worry this chapter wouldn't be up on time because college has started back, but it went up all the same without too much hassle.
