Souji comes upon Balthazar as he's walking with his pet--a squat, silvery-gray dragon he calls Tefra. Souji stops at the edge of the chalk patterns, looking at them without stepping onto them, and Tefra stops beside him as though she doesn't quite trust this strangely colored surface in front of her.
She taps it experimentally with her front feet, one after the other, and scrapes it with her claws, testing it. She snorts and the breath kicks up a small cloud of chalk dust, which makes her jump up and back like a startled cat, her tiny, narrow wings stretched in alarm.
Souji looks down at her and smiles a little, then follows the chalk designs back to where Balthazar is currently.
