Akiko was honored to have Chiyotaka choose her as his newest calligraphy apprentice. The dragon was ancient, and very well respected in the whole region. There was one drawback, however - Chiyotaka was EXTREMELY long-winded. Every day, after their lessons, he told her stories (often the same ones as the day before) until the tea was completely cold. Ah well, at least he was kind enough to reheat it with his fire breath. Rendered in Daz Studio Iray. Postwork in Pixelmator Pro. No AI used.
