Fast as lightning, the oddly coloured creature dashed about, sipping around like crazy. Catching mice, insects and other tiny, fast prey was easy for a Velociraptor. Especially one whose skills were as honed as Adva’s were! Her white head and vivid purple tones certainly made her stand out more than she would have liked to, but survival had no sympathy and took no prisoners. To remain alive, Adva had trained herself to go faster and faster with each day. It kept the little berry-punch toned raptor alive and she was thankful to have that inner drive to survive.
But sadly, the times were becoming harder to deal with and soon Adva would doubt her ability to survive on her own. With doubt came certain failure and Adva would not fail! So the female had to swallow her pride and go seeking assistance in all the wrong places. With dragons running about and huge creatures who could step on her and kill her, Adva needed to find a home that would accept her as she was with creatures who were... More careful.
The velociraptor’s journey took her to a place simply known as ‘The Crag’. What did Adva know about this place? Not a damn thing. But it smelled of other raptors. Perhaps there was a clan nearby who may accept the little, feathered reptile into their ranks...

It was a usual patrol. The sun had only just risen, and cool mist still hung over the land. Her sister would be busy doing god knows what, so she had taken it upon herself to patrol. Strengthen the clan. A body needs flesh to grow strong, and so a kingdom needs recruits.
The scent of carnivore curled through the air and caught her attention. Thistle slowed her pace and looked around. Who...? In the distance, there was no one... Oh. She looked down. Ah.
Now she did not hesitate, but surged forward and jumped upon a rock a few feet in front of the tiny creature. The Tyrant Queen raised her head high and clicked her curved talons against the rock to gain attention. The early sun frame her.
"Carnivore," she breathed. "I see you. Small as you are, you are one of us." She tilted her head down. "But this is my land - what is your business here?"

“Carnivore,” Gee, way to be creative. Adva had seen this raptor approach her, the larger beast easily dwarfing her tiny, feathered body. How rude was it to not even ask someone for their name after they didn’t really look for you? The one time Adva would actually have hoped that her purple feathers stood out... “I see you. Small as you are, you are one of us. But this is my land - what is your business here?” Bubblegum pink eyes locked onto the Utahraptor’s blue eyes for a moment before the smaller of the two puffed herself up a bit and tried to appear larger and more confident.
“So I was right when I though I had smelled a forming clan here... I wish to join!” Might as well make her intentions clear. Beating around the bush was never Adva’s style. It was actually boring to do so, in fact. “I can promise you, I’m the fastest and most agile Velociraptor you’ve ever seen and I will offer you my speed and cunning in return for the safety of a home.” Being so small really made Adva feel unsafe sleeping out in temporary nests she had made for herself... Being able to sleep somewhere and not worry about dying would be great. And in return, Adva would lend her skills to others who could use them. “I have other skills, but those are my most prominent.”
