The dragoness stopped by a crossroad, several hours after having begun on her way. What a great way to start her journey... she didn't even know what the right way was now. And apparently the Camelot-ians, or whatever they called themselves around here, either had stolen the signs indicating which way was which, or they had been too lazy to put a signpost up in the first place. Freaking great...
She looked down both directions. If it wasn't stupid enough, both ways seemed to be leading to big cities, too. How was she supposed to know which one was the right one? That one city seemed to be floating in the sky... that could be the capital, right? But how did she know it wasn't? Her best bet would be to wait for someone to ask for directions, and... wait, what was that? There was something up there, flying, and it was way too big for an eagle. And... and yes! There was someone up there, sitting on its back! Maybe she was in luck...
Alexyana brought her fingers up to her mouth, slid two claws between her teeth, took a deep breath and released a whistling sound so strong that, had there been thin glass in her vicinity, it might have shattered from the high pitch. But at the distance that the person was flying from her, she would likely only hear the whistling itself, and the rough direction it was coming from. Following that Alexyana raised both hands and waved them up and down in wide motions to attract attention to herself, silently cursing that she wasn't able to use her firebreath instead. Stupid system.
Provided that the other person came close enough to hear her, she would shout in addition to her movements: "Oy there, traveler! Do you happen to know the way to the capital of this land? Minas something? I'm fish about where to go from here!"
