[GROUP TWO]

[dramatispersonae]

You're in a small dome-shaped chamber, the walls and floor made of white frosted glass. It's cool here.

In the middle of the floor is a small flame, with no apparent source of fuel. Arranged around it are five gleaming copper objects, each labelled:

• a tiny watering can (GROWTH)
  
• a winding watch the size of your thumbnail, which you can set to run backwards or forwards (TIME)
  
• a heart (CARE)
  
• a mesh bag full of copper flakes (STRENGTH)
  
• a lump of what seems to be metallic clay, which you can mold into whatever shape you want (CHOICE)

“Feed the flame,” Firebird says. “Today is for creation. Consider what you may make, and why.”

I'm not inclined to hold my tongue when others are doing things I find pointless or stupid, or which otherwise impinge on my own well-being and agency, if that's what you mean.

Then what would you want to make.

That would depend on what we've decided on as a group. If you're set on thinking of this in terms of a dragon, then a better way to think of it would be as an environment for the dragon—and a particular end to that environment. You might make him a cave or a nest to grow in, which symbolizes a nurturing situation which will eventually enable him to fly.

... That makes sense.
