2024-10-29 19:42:56"I do not understand why you must put yourself in doing this leaving home to find him."
"Because it was the right thing to do, mother, what happened to him wasn't his fault."
"No one has ever said that, but there was no risk of allowing that young boy to stay. The nature of a cursed dragon is unstable that no one could foresee when that madness would be unleashed."
"It doesn't matter what you say now, mother. I am not going to stop what I have been planning these past 10 years."
Location of the wood elf queen throne where only two wood elves are there.
One is the queen sitting on the throne and the other is Naruth, daughter of the queen.
The two have entered into a conversation that has been discussed over time in the ten years gone by.
This comes to happen again one more time only because Naruth is leaving on this day.
On a day like this, her mother is trying to talk the young girl into not leaving to find Ethons.
The queen holds no ill feelings for that elf boy and would love nothing more for him to come to his home and people.
Yet being someone who bears the soul of a dragon a chance of that will never come to be.
"I have no desire to stop you given the determination of strong will in noting giving up. I learned to respect that by talking about this with you again Naruth is to hope that there is an understanding that there won't be a change on what has been decided in our home."
"I know and that is why I will not only find him but seek a way in helping to remove the dragon soul out of him."
Naruth says that will full hope in believing to be a true possibility. Her mother on the other hand could not share the same feelings.
"Once a dragon soul has been part of a being body it can not be torn off from the host when now as one."
"It can not mean…."
"Even if there is a way the host of that dragon soul will die."
Hearing her mother say that makes Naruth concerned as this is the first to be mentioned.
"What do you mean mother?"
"I did not want you to know this to bring further pain, but it is true if the dragon soul were to be removed somehow then the one who carried it would no longer be alive.”
Being told of this now brings problems to the plan Naruth has been working on these ten years.
Regardless, she still wants to go through with it, starting with finding Ethons when they meet again after the times pass, then the next steps will be fingering out together at the moment.
“Well it is not going to stop me mother because we’re going to find a way besides, I think it's time our talk ends.”
Naruth turns around to where the queen faces looking upon her daughter's back as the girl takes a few steps forward.
“Are you going to tell him about his father Naruth?”
“I did have that in mind, just not sure if it should be me to tell him or be your mother when we solved the problem and Ethons could come back home.”
The queen doesn't say another word. It seems there was no more point to it watching her daughter leaving this elf woman to deal with her thoughts about all this.
Naruth walks back to the village of her people as they look at the girl and go directly to one place in mind before completely leaving.
Everyone there knew or could tell that their queen daughter was going on a useless journey to bring someone back who can no longer be a part of it.
No one is going to stand in her way from doing this, but when coming back that is a different story.
She needed and wanted to see them one more time Ethons family said goodbye to them.
Arriving Naruth knocks on the door waiting for whoever opens it when taking a few seconds to see the one opening that same door to be Ethons sister Adneun.
“Naruth oh how good it is to see.”
“You too Adneun.”
Both went in to hang each other tightly for about a good long minute until breaking it off.
Adneun takes a single step back getting a good look at Naruth where the brown hair grows out long to be tied up in a ponytail style. Her eyes were hazel colored, her skin was tan and tall along with a busty build.
“Having seen each other every time, I always seem to be shocked at how much you have grown.”
“Thanks, it's nice to hear that from you, I take it you could get the reason for me being here.”
“So today is that day, you're going to leave the village to search for Ethons.”
Naruth took notice of the way her tone just sounded right at that moment there was no doubt something of a problem.
“Adneun what the matter is there something bothering you.”
“Well Naruth, are you sure you want to do this?”
“What are you saying, don't you want to see your brother again after being away for so long.
“Of course! I want nothing more than to see him again, but it's just ....”
Adneun stops talking, taking a minute to herself and then speaking again to Naruth.
“10 years went by fast and there was no way to tell what he was doing right now or if he was alive or dead.”
“Ethons is alive, don't you remember he was taken when alive and I don’t think anything else on that.”
“Even so Naruth, he can’t come back here, what exactly do you have in…..
“Come on Adneun, I don’t want to have this talk with you, I need you to be on my side about this not against it.”
Adneun signs, realizing that Naruth has a point as the girl is willing to leave home fighting against everything to bring Ethons back.
“You're right, I am on your side on this, and if you need help know that I am there.”
“Happy to hear about your other brothers here, I would like to say goodbyes to them too.”
“Sadly they are not keeping themselves busy after what happened that day.”
“I see then what about your mother is she in a healthy mood to speak with me.”
Adneun stepped to the side opening the door further allowing Naruth to enter and follow behind the Ethons sister when the door was closed and her heading to a room.
She didn’t open the door right away knocking first and speaking.
“Mother Naruth is here, would it be alright for her to come in to talk with you before she leaves.”
Salients were all that there were as the two looked at each other thinking that Adneun may not be up for it.
“Let her in '' Hearing that Adneun opens the door letting only Naruth enter as it is right since both will need privacy.
Once inside the room, she saw this elf woman sitting up on the bed looking through the window at the clear view of the sky and everything else to be seen.
“Naruth, please don’t stand there, come over here, so I can take a better look at you.”

Naruth couldn’t believe who else was here at this spot looking with her own eyes from a distance away a young grown green Orc female stood.One side of the head is shaved off and the other is still filled with the night-color hair hanging by the side.There are two small Turks each at the side of the mouth that wouldn’t be too hard to miss and the eyes are black.She was covered by a well-crafted cloth that was over the top, Botham's waist, and the feet as it was made no doubt from animal hide. "What are you doing here, you have no right to be at this spot.”“What are you talking about, I have every right to be here just as you don’t be an elf-like you remember, I was there as well when little.”“Yes it was something, I thought to forget long ago, and now that a green skin like yourself has brought it, forgetting it again isn’t going to be easy to do.”“Still got a problem with me after all these years, what is it going to take for you to like me?”The female Orc sighs and then tak

Well if that is what you two are going in town for then please enter and welcome to Lindow."The guard stepped to the side and allowed the two of them to enter the town as they did.When inside the number of people moving about the streets could be seen with their eyes because of the different other races among the crowd."Should we ask a local here to give us directions to the guild where the adventure goes?""I think that it would be a goo

Please tell me what led such a person as yourself to this town."Ethos quickly thinks inside his head of the best fake story to come up with to tell here.The truth must be kept at all costs from being known by anyone."It's alright, I left my home once I was at the right age to seek some adventures in life. I had no desire to just stay and live throughout the years there, so I have heard some took a career of adventuring and thought maybe, I should give it a try."Bernard and Catalina don't seem like they were much convinced with his story.Ethons was starting to get worried at first if thi

Bernard plays off to being hurt by mayor Greg's words, but he and even the assistant Catalina buy it not for a one-second look at him as if he was a foolish jester trying to play off a bad joke told at the time.“Alright, fine guess acting is also something I can not do well at either, but anyway Greg let's not talk about it here just let it go and trust me.”“Bernard now isn’t the right or even a good time to start playing games here with me. A serious matter we are talking about and I don’t like to be kept in the dark on what you're trying to hide from me.” Gerg says as he gets a mean look on his face telling that he is serious. “It seems there is no point in continuing your bad acting, sir. I think to be best we are discussing this full truth and no games or lies are understood.” Catalina voices her as well.This shows that Bernard was out to match as there were two against one at the time which he had no interest in fighting against. “ Fine, then what do you want to know, Greg.”

Ch 63: Hiding the truth
Corina close to death opened her eyes to see the mouth of the dragon open wide pausing right there before closing onto the girl's body. She took deep breaths in her state of great relief to be alive, taking the chance at stepping back a few steps to get away from the mouth, being that the creature could still close it at any moment.Then the dragon resumed moving again pulling back the head as it began to look upward to the sky where at that moment a roar shook the earth and attacked the ear of those in the area.They come to witness something strange happening to the dragon as its whole body went up in flames and they can feel the heat blazing at them that any closer anyone could get burned by the touch. When the flames blew away and whatever was left to be Ethons the elf lay on the ground in the very same spot as the dragon. He took not long in awakening, opening his eyes slowly and getting up at the same time.“Look like we did it to bring it back under control.”Ethons says to

There is much to discuss that needs to be answered.”“You must understand this shouldn’t have ever happened, our souls must have never come to be one together.” Ethons didn’t like to hear this from the dragon. It hurts that he feels regret about saving his life by doing that ritual to do so. “Look what is done, we can't do anything about it, sorry that you feel that way about it, but let's just move on from it.”“You don’t get it, the b

Ch 61: Realm of the two souls
It was impressive for the guild master to feel such pain at this level again after such a long time. In a sense, Bernard was starting to enjoy the sensation of making him alive again in the mindset of a battle. "I must thank you for bringing back such a feeling to me, I have been out of the game of fighting with such a dangerous opponent again. I honestly can’t remember the last one, I face how sad that is to be.” Bernard uses the right hand placing it over the wound where the light shines from the palm of that hand showing the wound beginning to heal within short seconds. The same can be said for the dragon given that a creature such as this has the high value of healing of its own. This makes Dragons difficult to slay, more so to wound one greatly as that can not be done without a legendary weapon or a very powerful spell that matters. “There that has been taken care of now guess we can resume back into the fight don’t you agree.” A roar was given as the answer for him to hear

Ch 60: High resistance to Magic
Bernard began to cast a spell to use against the dragon in front of him, one that he plans not to pick to do the most harmful damage on this creature as it surely will not hold back either.First, he plans to cast a spell that will hold the enemy in place to buy time for him and then enhance himself can’t just fight on this way for long going to need buffs on this fight.“Ethereal Ice Chain” Ice shot out of Bernard had soon formed into chains that grabbed and warped around the large body of the dragon.Sadly doing this will not take effect for long against a dragon being a creature that has a high-level resistance to magic and this will come to a short end. “Ogres' Courage.” That is what the guild master cast as the feeling of courage like an Ogre feeling brave like never before starting to care not of who is being faced at this moment.Now at the time, the ice chains break by the forces of the dragon proving how strong these creatures are among those that can resist magic.The guild

The guild master put out a hand to the side open as something quickly appeared, a weapon to be that of a lance which got grabbed right away into that same hand. “Alright old friend, it seems you are going to be used again. Dragonquaker has been a time since you had a great fight and kill at that.” Those adventurers there were amazed at the Lace the guild master had summoned to his side. There have been stories that he had collated powerful legendary weapons from the past at the time the guild master was once an adventurer like them.None at the guild ever had the chance to witness one of those legendary ever since Bernard became guild master. There was never a reason to use his legendary weapons again once taking up the job.

This would be a lot of data to take in need for the creation plan to be a clone of the thing if made into complete perfection. Watching from the very beginning the group that appears from nowhere engaged in a fight with the elf in his interesting transformation. What makes the fight more amazing is to keep one's eyes removed from it as the elf goes into another transformation, one that becomes that of a dragon something that can’t easily be done unless they are one from the beginning. “I must take in everything, nothing is to be missed at all.” The masked stranger said alone with no other living being to hear standing there silent to see what is to come out in the next act of the fight.
