*Koth snapped out of his sudden daze and turned his head to face her, careful not to submerge himself*
Happiness? At least, it would seem.
*Pulling back from the nonsense a moment, he put his feet down and stood up, facing her still and smiling. Placing a hand to overlap Sparrow's own, he continued*
Neither a golem nor a clone... You are much more than a pile of rocks... and your potential exceeds that of a mimic. ... You're special.

 Sparrow looked up at him, the familiar expression of bemusement on her face again. 'I'm...your minion.' She tried, not sure what else to say again.

You... are Sparrow. And like a bird for which you were named... You are free. A bird makes good to compare to... It's song is better when unconfined. A bird held not against its will... will always return. So like a bird... I wish you to sing. To feel free. And to know as you do that home will always be... with me.
*His hand let off hers delicately, the dragon now losing himself in his thoughts*

 '...You want me to leave, Master?' Sparrow asked, feeling a pang of something new--something that made her heart feel like it was sinking.

No... I'm not asking you to leave. Nothing close. ... There may come a time when you wish to, however. And if it does... I will not stop you. Just know in your heart... ... Where you come from.

 She felt relieved, smiling again and saying 'I don't think I'll ever wish to leave'

If that should change... Just remember my words.
*Koth put his hand back to her chest again with a wry grin*
There is a deep bond... That may yet grow. All th- Wait, what was that just now?
*He looked to the top of the waterfall, his eyes darting side to side, trying to discern a shadow*

 She looked past him, narrowing her eyes and squinting a bit. 'I'm not sure I see anything, Master.' Sparrow said after a slight pause.

Something else in the water... The sound of rocks moving... Might have been nothing. You said you heard something this morning, didn't you?

 'Something was moving up above us.' Sparrow agreed, straightening up and keeping her eyes peeled.

*Careful of hand placement, Koth slid it down and around to Sparrow's side, holding her close to his side while his piercing gaze focused on the fall above. Within moments another rock fell from the top and into the bed of the lake they were standing in*
WHO'S THERE? ... SHOW YOURSELF!

 'I should go investigate--' Sparrow said, attempting to dislodge herself and take a few steps forward.

*He let her go and tried to fly up, instead only throwing around a lot of water*
... curses.

 'What's wrong?' The clone asked, already forming a crackling orb of DRKNRGY and flinging it up in the direction the falling boulder had come from.

Little too wet... heh.
*He flapped a few more times, drying his wings off and then lifting out from the water, hovering about for a moment*
Always... someone tampering...
