Description

A small, youthful golden dragon with sunlight-shining scales, horns, golden rounded eyes, sharp teeth, and a scaly nose and jaw. She has paws, wings, and a feathered, forked tail; her compact body is tiny beside adult dragons, and she struggles to keep pace in flight. In some scenes she wears a fitted harness-like contraption that hooks to Tairn’s harness.

    Andarna is Violet’s second bonded dragon. Her power is distinct from Tairn’s, and Violet is learning to control it through a separate mental pathway; Andarna celebrates Violet’s readiness to channel.
