This new city we have come to... it is very strange, yes? It is not like an abandoned place - I know such places well and there is not- ... it is not the same. There should be something there, even if only echoes.

Are places often empty like this? Are cities not built for people?

[She grows quiet, eyes averting downwards, before lifting up a Bibiru that is contentedly munching on a root vegetable. It's a particularly pudgy specimen.]

This one needs a name also.

[Yorda hefts the Bibiru up as it ineffectually flaps its nubby wings, irritated at being moved after just getting comfortable.]

He is a bird. [Good job Yorda, you can identify basic wildlife.]

This is different from a place that had people once. It does not feel the same. It is like it was built only to be empty.

Can he fly? [She feels bad for him if he cannot. She cannot imagine her dragons being grounded.] How can you tell? Perhaps they were here long ago?

[A land built to be empty is...eery and strange.]

He cannot. [This particularly fat bibiru settles into its neckfolds, its tiny nose twitching as Yorda strokes back his ears.] None of them can, I do not think.

And even empty places have something that remains, if only echoes. This place, I have never known such silence.
