The story of Hematite Rain
A fictional story inspired by the artwork.
The dragon grips the high rocks with its claws and turns its head toward the open valley. The copper wings are wide enough to dominate the sky, with rain collecting along their lower edges. Red whiskers stream from the dark muzzle, and the same warm color appears in the narrow fins along the tail.
People who cross the ridge know this dragon by the way it faces into the first heavy rain. The path turns behind its usual perch, where a shallow channel carries water away from the trail. An old guide checks the ridge from below before climbing. If the dragon stands farther up than usual, she watches the channel for a sudden rise.
Violet clouds and distant mountains keep most of the landscape cool. Thin white lines show rain crossing both the wings and the slopes below. At the dragon's feet, small streams run down the edges of the rocks, making the force of the storm visible on the ground.
A traveler sheltering below this perch might wait for the storm to lift and discover that the dragon has moved to watch a second valley. That change in position could reveal where the water has found a way through the ridge.
