Insects buzz in the air, as various creatures call out with squawks, whoops and grunts. The trees are dense with lush foliage, the whole world seeming green and alive.
A few rather.. Human like grunts break up the animal choir, a large humanoid lizard climbing a large rock face and using a vine to hold on to. Dressed in airy traveling leathers, he continued his climb down the stone wall as he used the vine to prevent his fall. purple scales were neatly placed in a pattern across the argonians body, and horned head. The lizards sky blue eyes surveyed his surroundings as he murmured to himself. "Hm.. He should be back by now.." A few moments later the sound of flapping wings reach the lizards earholes and he reaffirms his grip on the vine as he looks to source the flapping wings. "I'm back! I'm back!" A deep but somewhat floaty voice shouts as a small roughly 2ft dragon flies up from a ledge a couple feet underneath the argonian. He lazily flies up and angles himself to land as the argonian stretches out his hand as a small landing platform. The tiny dragon places his fore paws on the larger lizard hand and crawls further along his hand as his wings lift his hindquarters up to land on the outstretched claws. "So.. I found a few of the flowers you described. I plucked a few petals, are they the right ones?" The small dragon ask as he raises his left leg and opens a small pouch with his dexterous claws and lifts up a couple of white petals. "Hm.. They seem right. Let me taste one." The large lizard says as he leans his head in and sticks out his tongue. The dragon places a petal on the tongue and quickly pulls back as the argonian quickly spits the petal off his tongue. "Ack! Yep! That's.. That's the one!" He says as he tries to get rid of the horrible taste. "As white as milk and tastes like a shit covered boot.. That's what I'm after!" He says as tries to do anything he can to distract himself from that taste! "So.. How far is there left to descend? A few feet?" The dragon nods and does his best to hide the grin plastered across his snout. "Yep, and the flower grows not far from the edge. So be careful where you place your claws!" He says as he leaps of his perch, flying around the climbing argonian.

"So.. What kind of brew were you planning to make this flower?" The dragon asks as he flies around a little more and lands on a nearby branch, watching the large lizard carefully make his way down the stone. "Well.. I need to stock up on them, I don't tend to use them a lot but I used my last about a week ago." The small dragon nods and smiles. "And that's why you hired me to find some and guide you to it, right! That makes the flower a lot easier to find. Especially since it grows on ledges and cliff faces." The dragon says as the argonian' clawed feet scratch at the small ledge and watches as he lets go of the vine. He dusts off his leather gear and opens up a pouch on his left leg and kneels, his claws going through the small flower's leaves and smiling. "Yes, this one is perfect. I might just be able to take it whole!" He says with a large smile as he begins to use his claws to dig at the flowers roots, trying to keep the structure of the small flowers roots intact so he can possible plant it and grow it at his shop. He gently places the flower, root and all, into the pouch, giving it a small pat as he stands and smiles to the dragon that is watching him. "Alright. Let's get back to camp and tomorrow, we'll go after the next on my list." The dragon nods and leaps of the branch, flying at the argonian and landing on his shoulder. He smiles and walks across the larger reptile's neck and angles his head up to the lizards earhole. "Last to get to the camp cooks!" He says with a grin as he leaps of the shoulder, leaving the argonian to shake his head. "Silly dragon.." He says to himself as he grabs the at some of the jutting rocks and began his climb up the cliff.
