Estinien finds this all very confusing, but will somewhat awkwardly play along. Are some of these dragons really adults? Did they evolve to be really small for some reason? Very strange.

Still, he's comforted by the fact that this means the larger one he spoke to did probably understand him. He'll bid the little ones farewell when he leaves, and will greet any other colonies he stumbles across in a similar way and/or impart the same message to any of the larger ones that end up observing.

They've got places to be, though, so he'll have to keep going. Every day without dragon warfare is a good one.
