Ophi's Branch
You've been roaming the endless sands for days now. The heat smoldering and relentless, the sun singing the hairs of your mane. You smack your lips, mouth dry as you lift your head and make an effort to try and find any sign of shade or water. To your excitement and relief, you spy a large stone structure that would offer more than a cool place to rest.
Quickly you make your way, kicking up sand as you move. However, when you peer into the darkness of the structure, you see a pair of differently colored eyes staring right back at you. Before you can backpedal out of there, the beast lunges at you and drags you further into the void of the cave.
Everything is dark. Quiet. Except for the sound of water dripping onto wet sandstone. Then, suddenly, there is a wisp of flame. Revealing a friendlier-than-thought muzzle and a pile of wares.
