[Three versus one. If Jack hadn't mentioned the crystal he brought with him, Duster would have considered risking handing over his own. Making the dragon angry at one of the party to save the others would be preferable to no gifts. The teleportation, though? Strange, but not entirely impossible, considering what Duster has seen of Crystallis.

He pockets the red crystal.]

Is everything alright? You look nervous. [Is it the dragon, or something else?

Speaking of the dragon, he turns to it.] Do each of us need to give you a crystal?

[The dragon's slitted gaze flicks from Dusters crystal to Rialynn and then to Jack. His voice is low and deep as he response to Jack's story.]

I've heard legends of those crystals. [His voice rumbles menacingly from his chest.] I could find a way to make it stay.

[Terra takes a step next to Duster lowering her voice so that the dragon might not overhear.] That crystal is your life here. Without it you can die. [She honestly doesn't know all the details but she wants him to know how important that crystal really is.]

[The dragon seems to be looking for another reason not to take Dusters crystal though his eyes seem to now fix on the Light Crystal in Jack's hand. It really is pretty and he isn't sure if he has one quiet so beautiful in his collection.]

[Thankfully, Duster pulled his crystal back. Albel let out the breath he was surprised to discover he'd been holding. What was that about? Was he seriously worried about the stranger? If Duster gave his crystal and died, well then it would only serve him right for being so stupid.]

[His eyes turned to Jack's Light Crystal as well. If they didn't all have to provide one for the benefit, and Jack was willing to relinquish his spare...]

I think yours has caught its attention...

[He murmured to Jack, gesturing to his bag.]

[OOC: Gonna go ahead and cap this off, then, if nobody else is tagging in.]

Jack moves very deliberately towards the Dragon with the Light Crystal outstretched. Yess, you want this one. Bright white with the way that the light reflects through it? Jack slowly and carefully puts it down on the ground close to the Dragon. "A gift, then." So you will please not eat us all?

END!

[The dragon roars as his claws reach out towards the crystal. His wings span to either side as he flaps a single gust of wind at them.]

I accept.

[The voice rumbles from his chest before disappearing into the trees.]
