The wyvern swooped, but it was not to rend and tear but rather to bank and stare with one curious beady eye at the bodies of the minds that had touched hers in a way that no human had dared to do for hundreds of years. Such a slender and delicate creature, the wyvern thought, and so young, only a child in her reckoning, and yet with so much power. Duncan Harper
About This Quote

The wyvern is a creature with great intelligence. She is wise, graceful, and possesses good judgment. She does not think of the humans as nothing more than food or just prey. Instead, she has compassion for them.

She knows that they are young and that they possess great power that could be used to do great things if only they were given the chance. The wyvern has lived for hundreds of years and is still young at heart. She is willing to give these humans the chance to make their own mark on history if only they are given the chance.
