Nana helped raise the sails and bring the anchor up, excited to see home once again.
That night had been one of the nights Masamune would meet with Kojurou and discuss plans on keeping Riften in top condition, giving Megohime the perfect chance to sneak into Masamune's room to find out what was making all the ruckus at night. Picking open the lock, she slipped inside the room quietly, closing the door behind her and moving inside. She had only taken three steps inside when something large slammed into her, making her scream in surprise and draw her dagger, spinning quickly to face whatever had bodyslammed her. The beast let out a snarl as her dagger cut its wing, grey teeth bared as the girl backed quickly into the corner. It was twice the size of a hunting dog, and nearly as big as the draft horses down in the stables, dark blue and black scales covering it; a slender tail slowly swaying back and forth, two small horns curved backward out of its skull.
