Saira leapt off the edge of the rocky ledges and splashed gleefully into the beautiful, glimmering clear waters of the pool below. The water, cold from being mostly hidden from the sunlight illuminating the surface penetrated the thick fur wrapped around her body, the tigeress swinging her head back and forth gleefully as she took in the light that broke through the deeper cracks while it danced across the walls and water alike. Her inner fire blazed with delight and she couldn't stop her pleased rumble from this awe-inspiring discovery - a mountain of untapped shiny trinkets and gems just waiting for a dragon to gather them in her nest. She dove down beneath the rippling surface, allowing her fur to seemingly dissolve from her body in a gentle light of gold and red, seeming to become powder in the water before vanishing as it was replaced by smooth scales that further aided her maneuverability.
There was another set of gems, resting on the bed of the pool that matched the green of her eyes, practically calling out for her to collect them. She grasped them easily in her long, clawed palms taking care not to break them any more than was strictly necessary to separate them from the silt before pushed off against the murky ground back toward the surface. She breached the water quietly, with only the softest of splashes as water dripped from her horns and drizzled down her scales and onto the stone floor below. Another audibly pleased rumble echoed from her chest as she lowered her massive head to the crystals now resting at her claws. She was already cursing herself for not bringing some sort of leather bag or a satchel or even just a recently treated skin to ferry her haul but the dragon was more than willing to make several journeys to bring home what she'd discovered. The question was however, what should she bring first with the assumption that anything she left behind was at a high risk of being picked up by some other creature?
Her powerful tail swung slowly back and forth as she inspected the potential additions to her cache with a pair of critical emerald green eyes.
