It missed the start of the flight, and with that Jjezreth missed the influx of emotions and want stirred by the flying green and all those who followed her.
Jjezreth understood the mechanics behind the flight, although it did not yet understand the desire of flightlust. It still lacked a capacity for that.

But really, it wasn't the idea of a conclusion that swept Jjezreth up and along. It wasn't the flight itself, nor was it the apathetic bronze or affable blue that interested it.

It was the heart of the lagging green, loud and true and blazing, that captured Jjezreth's attention. It didn't understand her affection any more than it understood the lust of the adult dragons but it could understand wanting something. Wanting someone.
