Amaya's Sign Language
Hello dragon prince fandom :D
I am deaf, and I am fluent in American sign language, which is the language Amaya uses. Ask me an episode and a timestamp in which she or another character signs something, and I will go translate it for you, there is only one bit I can remember not fully understanding, but go ahead and give it a shot!
(P.S. both S1 and S2 are fine to ask about)
EDIT: will write answers I give in sequence order here
EDIT: S2 is a wrap, I think, correct me if I got any time stamps wrong or if I missed anything. S1 I will do when I can/on request. I will make a post on the release of future episodes linking back here with and adding more translations!
S1:
~E4 12:10 After greeting the boys, Amaya looks wary, so Gren signs "What's wrong?"
13:10 While trying to distract Amaya, Callum knocks on her shield, she turns around and signs a lexicon variant of the word "what?"
~E5
10:55 Amaya visits the tomb/memorial of Sarai
"Hello Sister,
Kneels, lights candle
You were my hero,
Perfect, brave, and unwavering,
Kind hearted and true.
I'm sorry big sister, I failed you.
The boys were safe with me, but I let them slip away."
20:20 After talking to the guards and warning them of Viren's malice, Amaya puts a finger over Gren's lips, signalling him to cease voicing. She tells him "I have trusted you as my voice, now I trust you as my will. Save the boys."
S2:
~E4
3:13 Amaya looks out on the lava river for the Xadian Outpost. She narrows her eyes and tells the other military officer "I see elves down there." When he insists that it's not true, as supported by the smoke signal, she tells him "No. Something's wrong. Set up a search party."
15:25 A soldier is found in the Xadian Outpost and is berated for being late, he makes up an apology so as not to trigger an attack by the Sunfire elves, but subtly signs "danger" to Amaya, prompting her to rush forward just in the nick of time, and block an arrow fired at the soldier.
~E5
20:39 As King Harlow is talking about how they will kill the magma Titan if their aim is true, he is emphatically gesturing, Amaya nudges Sarai and says something along the lines of "hahaha he's signing!"
~E6
7:54 After being congratulated by Sarai, Amaya collapses, she asks Sarai "how do I look?" To which Sarai says "Not great...but you should see the other guy."
