Eta did the dragon equivalent of smiling, she swished her tail in midair and raised her head so she resembled a reptilian swan. Seeing Onyx here meant she could go wander the clansite and keep an eye on the only hatchling of the clan, Susto. However she chose to stay and listen to the conversation between Yofune-Nushi and Onyx.

Susto did all but ignore Onyx's warning. He refused to leave the clansite and would only practice gliding upon the hatching ground. He did not try to leave despite the lack of a Chi to watch over him. He enjoyed his new found freedom, which was extremely harshed by the clan's Eta, Nightwing. "What a spaz. It's a wonder she became Eta. I could make a better Eta any day." Susto thought to himself as he glided head first into the ground below him. "Owch. That hurt!"
