Journey on a Flying Tortoise

As they prepared for their journey to Coiling Dragon City, Elder Rosaline summoned her cute beast with a flick of her wrist. A moment later, a small, adorable black tortoise appeared at her feet, looking up at them with friendly eyes.

"Elder Rosaline," Vargus began, observing the small creature with curiosity, "is this your—"

Before he could finish, Rosaline interrupted with a command to her pet, "Blackie, now grow big." At her words, the small tortoise began to expand rapidly, growing larger and larger until it transformed into a huge black tortoise. Despite its size, the creature maintained its cute appearance, its large eyes and smooth shell giving it a benign, almost whimsical look.

"So this is your cute beast, Elder Rosaline?" Vargus asked, clearly impressed by the transformation.
