Bab 184: Dragon's Flight

Arran and Snowcloud carefully climbed onto Crassus's back. In his dragon form, Crassus was the size of a small mountain, and although he had lain down on the ground it was like scaling a cliff.

Arran noticed that Snowcloud glanced down several times as they climbed, and there was a gloomy expression on her face which only got worse the higher they climbed.

When she saw Arran look, she gave him a weak smile, then said, "I'm not very fond of heights."

He wisely kept his mouth shut. Reminding Snowcloud that this was just the start of it seemed like a bad idea — not to mention that she seemed well aware of it already.

He finally chose a spot at the base of Crassus's neck, where several large scales stuck out like rocks.

"You should probably sit behind me," he said to Snowcloud.
