The Dragons Guards

[LittleSprite2]

Freya

Freya woked feeling relaxed and ohhh so delishous from the nights events.. she gathered her clothing but did not yet dress carrieing it from the tent she layed it on a bolder by the water.. and walked around nude..

that smells wonderful... i am going to swim before we eat.. she said and walking up to him kissed him before running and diving into the lake... not coming up from under the surface for a long long time until she reached nearly the middle and he could see her a fair distance off swimming playfully and enjoying herself emensly..

She rejoined him awhile later and redressed herself in her light blue clothing much like that of her sisters fashioned of cloth like a geine or belly dancers out fit.. but rather than gold bands on her arms she wore silver..

she smiled at him and settled down next to him to enjoy the meal he had made with the berries

 

[DeaMSmith]

Dea's face was red when she kissed him and went into the water nude and he smiled at her as he handed her some food.* Here eat. Soon we will head to the great city of Metal And Ride the Iron cars to the city of Life. From there we head all the way to the kingdom of Earth. My home land. It will take about a year to get there. So i hope you are ready for a long walk to my home.*

As he started to work on getting everything ready and packing it all up as he smile at her and then waiting for her to be ready.

Celia

"To be perfectly honest, I'm not quite sure why somebody whould hold back such hostile lands as these," he shrugged, then whistled to call down his familer, who landed expertly on his finger. " In truth, I am a magus who seeks the magic within this place, hard as it may be to find. Perhaps you can tell me where this burning energy may be?"

You are a seeker of power.. A Magus.. and if i should happen to know of this power.. why should i tell you? what would you do with it ?

so he was seeking her had he heard of the legend of the guardins protecting the dragon.. and his lands.. and of the powers they posessed.or did he simply sence the power she posessed... it didnt matter like others before him he would fail.

tho she had never faced a Magus before.. fighters and fools yes but no magic users... this would prove to be much different.. and quite a challange.

 

[swordandsandle]

" I simply require winning the fealty of that power for a short period of time," he paused to clear his throut for ephasis. "With force if nessicery. Mastery over the forces of this world will allow me to cross to the others; nothing more and nothing less."

This woman, he noticed as he subtly examined her, was clearly jumping around his questions. He still wasen't quite sure what she was, but he could taste the raw energy surronding her, something that classed her with one of the supernatural. He looked down at his companion, who's eyes only enforced his fellings.

" If it is all the same to you," he turned towards his tent. "I have been traveling for a sun and a half on end, and will be retiring to my tent. Please feel free to help yourself to he chestnuts, that is" he smirked. "If you can stomech them."

Freya

Freya after having finished eating and allowed him to pack up his camp while she gathered some extra items she thought she might need of her own. She carried a small pack upon her back and a two headed pole ax she could use to defend herself so she wouldnt waist all of her energy using her elemental ability at all times.

shall we then.. if you are ready please lead the way.. As Freya left with the man Dea.. her brother Roxis with the powers of earth arrived to guard her area as well as his own.. while she was away.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia

such arrogance .. Celia was tempted to attack him but for now as she needed to patrol and he did not appear as to he were ready to fight she would simply surround him and his camp with a ring of flame to hold him until she returned to release it.

with a wave of her hand the fire from his camp grew and moved away from the tent and the camp encircling it leaving enough distance that it would not harm him unless he aproched it nore would it spread any farther unless she wished it to do so.

If he tryed to jump over the flames would simply get higher.. thinking this would hold him for now she left him there safely unharmed and unable to harm anyone else for now..

she scouted the rest of the area around her domain and finding no other threat returned to the cave near the top of the volcano which lead deep down into its depths.. her home was within these chambers..

 

[swordandsandle]

Please, he thought Does she really think that a fire can stop me? He waited until she had left and, bracing his mind, reached into the Realms Behyond.

The seering jolt hit his mind as his flesh began to peel, melting back into a ruddy red. His bones ached as they streched out, and every part of him was in the figurative fire. Yet, within moment, it was over, and where a human once stood their was a Yzu Archdemon; the elephantine bipedial creatures of the Abyess.

He walked through the fire with no adverse effects; the skin he wore was suited for it, and followed the taste to seek his way along the woman's path. Simple enough, and with unatural speed and strength, he reached to lair just before the woman did. He ecked out enough energy to swap his skin again, and soon a little red flame snake was hiding in the tubes of the chamber's walls

they came to the city of metal And it was lager then anything anyone has seen. A taller then life Glass point was the tallest thing in the city and was something many from around the world had seen. But Dea didn't care about it as he lead the way to the Iron Cars to get to the next city to the city of life

As he went and got the things they need he sat and waited as many people also had gotten as they all herd the sound of bells and the sound of what was like a monster but it was the Iron cars that moved like houses and ever one was happy to see it as the doors open and everyone started top get on as Dea got his things and went in lie to get on as he started to say

" This will be my 2nd time riding it I hope you will like it as i did but we need to get to my home fast and this is the only way."


He told her as he went to his seat that was shown to him and the other one was for her.

Celia

Celia paused as she walked down the final tunnel leading to her chamber her home a circular cave like room with a small cook stove, one small table and chairs, a single bed, a desk and walls from floor to ceiling of books, and anchient parchments... all one room

There were no windows in her chamber and only one other exit that lead into a maze of tunels so that she could lose her enemy if he did not know the way.

The bed was four poster with sheer black see through curtins a burgandy bedspread and the sheets were also black.. the extra pillows were a mixture of burgandy and black neatly made.

something held her back from entering however... something wasnt quite right.. she pulled what looked to be nothing more than a swords hilt from behind her back. there was no blade upon it...

until she wispered a word in a long forgotten language and a blue flame came forward from the hilt handle giving her a sword of fire illuminating the hall, as she cautiously moved forward.

 

[swordandsandle]

In retrospect, the magma tubes where the ideal hiding place. As a creature of mostly fire, he could blend in with the background perfectly and, as and added bonus, hide within the molten rock should push come to shove. He watched carefully and silently as the blade erupted. A Magic wepon? A Spell? He coulden't sniff it out in his current skin, and so sat there, trying to blend in.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia

She passed by his hidding spot slowly and then paused as tho listing she placed one of her hands on the wall feeling the energys with in.. was that what she had felt.. was it simply the lava and magma flow changing ever churning.. what ever she felt it was dimmer now nearly gone..

There were creatures that lived in fire she knew perhaps she was letting her imaginatation get the better of her... still .. she had thought to check on the Magus after a nap maybe she shouldnt wait.. but if they were to fight she wanted to be at full strenght..

not sensing anything from the rock the fire of the Volcano reveiling nothing dangerous to her she allowed the flame of her sword to disapate and re sheathed the hilt in the belt around her waist at the small of her back.

She entered her chamber and set about making herself something to eat before finding her rest in her bed.

 

[swordandsandle]

He watched, and waited.

For awhile, having nowhere to go but his head was an annoying recurance, but slowly and surly he got back into the rythem of his apprentice days, and studied his subject. No doubt about it, she was a spirt of the flame; no sane spellcaster would make their home in an active volcano. It tooks somebody smarter then that to survive a single week.

Whomever she ways ( did spirts even have names?), she had a very boring homelife. First she checked the walls, but he had simply become one with the flame within. Then, she had taken time to cook up something black and squishy, and then set herself to bed. This was, abnormal, he'd remember it in the future.

Finnaly, when the taste died out and he was sure she had slipped into unconcioussness, Hark slithered out of the tubes and into the main chamber. Dimming himself to almost ash, he took his place beneth the bed, and waited for the oppritunity to strike.

She WOULD submit, their was simply no way around it.

 

[LittleSprite2]

Celia

Celia woke and set up she pored some water from a piture into a bowl and stripping down used a wash cloth and some soap to clean herself before redressing and deciding it was time to go and check on the arrogant magus at the bottom of her home..

she smiled wondering what he thought of the ring of fire around his encampment..looking around she noted everything was still in its place but frowned at some ash upon the floor.. this was a bit unushal true ash much like dust found its way here often enough, but she kept a tidy home.

She would have to straiten up when she returned.. and swiftly left

Upon arriving that the camp she let the ring of fire disapate and cursed... the camp was empty and the Magus gone.. from the looks of it he had been gone for some time.. seeing the thrush up in the tree she spoke to it.. Tell me little one where is your master.. and what hold dose he have over you that you serve him so..? she said speaking to the bird in its own language.

[Tirian]

Whispering winds through the leaves of the trees bore sounds. They carried sounds of birds, animals rustling on the forest floor below, water trickling and rushing along past stones and moss covered rocks, and the creaking of tree limbs.

The ground, mossy and loamy, rocky and wet, grassy and shrouded by ferns and shrubs, carried light trembles and thumps, the rhythmic groaning of trees moved by a strong wind, the footsteps of deer and the lolloping of rabbits.

Now, more recently, it had brought Roxis news of intruders, and of his sister-in-arms' encounters with them.

Roxis wore little but a light robe of undyed cotton. It had no seams or signs of sewing or weaving, for he had slowly and lovingly coaxed the fabric from a wild crop in a field. His hard feet were bare, and his arms to the elbow and his legs to the knee. His dark curly hair fell to his shoulders. His sun browned body was clean limbed and smooth skinned, strong and wiry at the same time. As he sat cross legged under a huge spreading oak he closed his eyes and let the music of the forest flow over him.

 

[swordandsandle]

Oddly enough, just when he would have liked to be awake, Hark fell asleep.

When he awoke, the sun was already high in the sky, although from where he "sat" he coulden't know this. The Woman that had been the focus of his life for the last few hours was no longer about, something that gave him mixed feelings of relief and dred. Slithering out from beneth his shelter, he attempted to force his true form through the fog of his mind, but simply lacked the strength. He left along the same path he came in, so as not to spred further paths of ash. He would have to wait, again.

Wrapping himself up the leg of the desk with great effort, he managed to reach the fire-proofed wood at the top, where a fireproof tome lay open. The text was Dragonic, the langue of the anceint magics, which would have stopped many others cold. Not him.

What is this garbage? hissed silently as the words washed over him. Some trashy romance novel? To be perfectly honest, it wasen't all that romantic, and it surly wasen't the work of a proffesional.

Yet, something egged him on through it...
------

" Hark, Hark" the thrush responded back in his own langue, gruttel as it was. " He saved me from servitude in the Outter Regions, so I serve him."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Hark... i see little one.. then your master is gentaler then most.. what is his purpose here..if your cause is peaceful i will let you both pass unharmed.. but if you mean to attack me or something i hold dear i will fight back.. you've been fairly warned.

she said waiting for the birds responce before begining to search out its master and discover where he may have gone. The book she had left open was not a romance novel but rather the hystory of her people and the legend of the 5 survivors who now served under him and the powers they had gained.. but not there locations..

 

[swordandsandle]

(OOC- Ok, so I'm going to say that the text in the book and classical Dragonic are similer, but with the words having differnt meanings so this makes sence, k?)

" Peace, Peace rel.. rel.. relative!" the thrush finally remembered the word. " Peace good, but fight may be if submission dosen't come in peace. To win Warlock title submission by elemental spirt is nessicery."

 

[LittleSprite2]

Lilly

Whispering winds through the leaves of the trees bore sounds. They carried sounds of birds, animals rustling on the forest floor below, water trickling and rushing along past stones and moss covered rocks, and the creaking of tree limbs.

The ground, mossy and loamy, rocky and wet, grassy and shrouded by ferns and shrubs, carried light trembles and thumps, the rhythmic groaning of trees moved by a strong wind, the footsteps of deer and the lolloping of rabbits.

Now, more recently, it had brought Roxis news of intruders, and of his sister-in-arms' encounters with them.

Roxis wore little but a light robe of undyed cotton. It had no seams or signs of sewing or weaving, for he had slowly and lovingly coaxed the fabric from a wild crop in a field. His hard feet were bare, and his arms to the elbow and his legs to the knee. His dark curly hair fell to his shoulders. His sun browned body was clean limbed and smooth skinned, strong and wiry at the same time. As he sat cross legged under a huge spreading oak he closed his eyes and let the music of the forest flow over him.

Lilly a 21yr old from a village between Freya's lake and Roxis forrest domain had heard stories off and on thru out her life from the elders of another village that had been guarded by a dragon and distroyed when the dragon had gone to seek the wisdom of his brethren leaving only 5 survivors in its wake.. the dragon gifting these survivors with special abilitys so that they may continue to guard him, and themselves.

Curious about this legend and not wanting to marrie the man her family chose Lilly packed things she thought she would need to survive away from home and slipped out into the night.. she wasnt sure which direction to head in first but thought she would begin by going farther into the woods before turning twords a lake she had heard of.. some said the remains of the old village lay perhaps a months journy from there on horse back..

Lilly was lath of form standing 5ft 2 in and was around 110 lbs soaking wet. she was dressed as most any village girl she carried a staff, and small dagger for protection. She had long blonde hair and sky blue eyes..

" Peace, Peace rel.. rel.. relative!" the thrush finally remembered the word. " Peace good, but fight may be if submission dosen't come in peace. To win Warlock title submission by elemental spirt is nessicery.


Celia's golden eyes flashed as she tossed the long braid of her red colored hair over her sholder I submit to no one.. little friend you may tell your master so.. She turned then wondering at the connection between him and the thrush and if it held some of his power or perhaps his life..

she would hate to harm an animal but if there was a way to at least weaken him and make him leave by doing so she would, but only as a last resort if she could find no other way to beat him.

She bowed to no one but the dragon she served... not willingly. She began searching for him again and wondered as she continued her search where he could be.. then she remembered the ash on the floor.. and began racing back to her home.. how had she not noticed him...

 

[swordandsandle]

This book wasen't making a lick of sence.

Thankfully, after his period of rest, he was able to pull back on his own skin and find something else to read. He scanned the shelves attentivly, when one of the more anceint tome's caught his eye. Portions of the binding broke off as he handled it, breaking down into component dust that coulden't be told from ordenary colllection. He opened it gently, the flagile text bending in his hand, to reveil the form of a red dragon (male), of great size. So this was the Spirt of Fire he was looking for, so it coulden't be the woman he had seen. "Ah well," he shrugged as he read on. " No sence in leaving Nuttsy waiting."

Yet, as he returned the books to the shelve, he could sence the approching of a fire elemental force.

And they where angery.

Something wiggled its way into his phycy, something he haden't felt since his second year as an apprentice; doupt. Did he have the strength to change his form just one more time, to something that he could win with? If not...

"GNNNNNNNN" He groaned as every nerve in his body went alight. Everything in his life that had gone wrong; from his first failed spell back to the first time he attempted to stand, assulted his concioussness. Yet, thankfully, it was soon over and, where he had once stood, their was a medium sized, amythest dragon snorting out a puff of water vapor.

 

[LittleSprite2]

celia

she entered her chambers just as the Magus Hark transformed into an amythest dragon that spit out water which in its self was unushaul for in all the lore she had collected they had no such power..

a blue dragon or white would certainly but dragons such as amythest, diamond, ruby ect.. had other seprate ablitys.. from the regular colors.

just as only certin dragons had the ability to transform there shape such as the golden which was the largest.. the silver, the red and the black were the only ones with that ability.. What are you ? She began backing out of her home hoping to draw him with her not wanting to take the chance of a battle in her home and distroying the books and tombs she had collected over the years.

[swordandsandle]

" I'm just a simple man who likes to try on people's skins, that's all." He took a giant step forward, his great gait easly outpacing the woman. " And a man who would like to speak with these creatures, to meet them on their own feild. The form you see before you is that of the Last Dragons of The Crystal Sea, the victors of a particularly bloody cival war. They are a, personal favorate of mine."

He raised on of his front talons, examining the claw like a jewlier might few his cuts. " But I suppose a little birdy already told you that. All I want to know is where I can find the Dragon of this volcano, so that I might domineer over him for a time. Refusal is not an option." He spat a crystal clear geyser a few feet in from of her for emphasis.

 

[DeaMSmith]

Dea was a sleep on the iron cars as they made there way to the City of Life. Dea was not sure what to tell his mother what he had done and tell her this girl is Freya. It was something on his mind as he slept it was only a day intel they got there. It took 3 full days to get there and it seem like everyone was so happy in this car As it moved no one knew how but it was something that was going to make the wold look at things from now on.



===============================

Noble Man ???: Well I say we need to get that land and fast. It seems like the both gold and silver is under there and it can help the Kingdom of earth win a big part of the war but the farm land is in the way and I dont want to wait 32 more years to get it.

Man In Black Robe ???: Do not fear soon it will be yours all we have to do is kill the owners and son and with no one there it will become yours. And we can deal with the son now since he is on this Iron car. So I will send my men after him

Noble Man ???: Good Good then do it fast I dont want to be late for a party i need to go.


==================
Back at Dea's seat
==================

Dea yawn as he open his eyes. it was late and he wonder what to do as he looked at Freya then saw to men walk from the door at the fount of the iron car.
