"There's something else."
Yinxin's voice had shifted—lighter now, almost hesitant. The heavy emotional weight of her story was settling, and something new was rising to take its place.
"The memories showed me how to do something I never learned. Something all dragons can do, but..." She trailed off, a note of old grief in her voice. "My mother never taught me. She was too broken by then, too hollow. And the other dragons on Telia—most were being hunted. There was no one left to teach the young ones."
Jayde raised an eyebrow. "Teach you what?"
"Shapeshifting."
"You can already shapeshift. I've seen you change size—"
"Not size shifting. True transformation. Taking a completely different form." Yinxin's golden eyes held a mix of excitement and nervousness. "Human form."
The room went very still.
"Show us," Jayde said.
