When he would begin his empire, he would choose this place to start...but perhaps somewhere in the outside world first to ensure their survival. The alabaster melt slipped further into the darkness, the heat that radiated from the fiery river set his pelt nearly on fire, but not so much to where he would actually burn. The heat in these summer months was uncomfortable, but he could cool down later in a river or a lake.

And by the sounds of it, a young female with some company. Continuing forward, he rounded a bend and followed the flow of the river. It wasn't long until he found a curious looking woman lying upon a small platform. Stopping on the main path that sat beside the lava flow, he gazed curiously at her.
