The creature in the lake the other night was peculiar, but Jah-lila has come to think of him as something like a pard or a grass-cat. Larger than many pards together, of course, and far more intelligent- but then she has seen the red dragons of the Smoking Hills, and when they move, it makes mountains shift. So his sort of being is not so strange as all that.

Still, she keeps one ear slanted towards the lake when she finally lowers her head at the lake's edge to drink today.
