Nesa let out her held breath when she flew past the last peak of the gigantic Beor Mountains that she called home and landed on a precipice that lined it's western edge. Before her lay a sprawling green landscape, much more verdant than the rugged border of the Hadarac. The land of Surda, as she knew from the ripped memories of a lone human wandering close to the mountains. She would not allow herself to feel remorse for the man, even when she also knew that he himself had a family somewhere in this land that expected his return. Thus was the way of life, and she needed his knowledge so she can communicate with the outsiders, even if it is only to save herself from destruction. She sighed as she looked back towards the peaks that disappeared far into the clouds. A whole new world awaited, but whether it be hostile or friendly, she had yet to know. The humans, as far as her only source's knowledge would tell her, warred with each other. But beyond that she did not know. Nor did she find dragons anywhere in the two-leg's mind. Her hope had wavered, but it does not mean that there was not any chance. She DID see the blue dragon kill her father. She was to start here, and travel north until she found another dragon, which was her ultimate goal. With a scowl, Nesa raised her wings and flew out into the open air, awaiting her future, whether it be good or bad, it does not matter. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

She did not like the enclosed feeling she got whenever she had to fly through the gigantic Beor Mountains. She was eager to be free of them and return to the wide open spaces she was used to. Up ahead she could see the last few mountains and, beyond them, open ground. She bugled happily, speeding up the beat of her wings. She corkscrewed through the air, loosing a tongue of ruby-red flame. Just before she reached the end of her maneuver, she spotted something in the air below her. The ruby dragoness pulled up abruptly, her eyes narrowed at the creature below. Even from a distance, she could tell it was no dragon. The creatures mottled scales and build were all wrong. This being was too streamlined and thin to be a dragon. Valora felt an annoyed roar bubbling up from the depths of her chest. Yet another reason I despise these mountains. Fanghur, she growled to herself. She had been attacked numerous times by the silly things, and while she had not been severely injured, one of them had managed to leave a painful scratch on her wing membrane in the last ambush. She cocked her head, eyeing the Fanghur below. It didn't seem to have noticed her yet and there were no others nearby. Valora grinned ferociously, then dove straight for it. Open your ears, Stonehead! she roared with her mind, her forepaws outstretched, her claws ready to scratch and rip at the creature. She didn't intend to kill it, just teach it the same lesson she had the others: Respect the dragons. Just before she reached it, she altered the tilt of her wings, sending her shooting to the left. She reached out with her right forepaw and scored a hit with two of her talons, leaving a light scratch on it's shoulder. Before the beast could react, she flapped her wings twice, heavily, and shot back up above it, where she remained, circling. Her ruby-and-rust-red eyes sparkled brightly with delight at the aerial contest she had started. OOC: Valora's got a bit of a temper, as you might have noticed. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

At first she assumed it to be another Fang, enraged that she was trespassing on it's territory, but as she turned her head, a voice echoed throughout her mind, Open your ears, stonehead! Not a second later a blur of red passed her sight and a burning sensation ran up her shoulder. Roaring in anger, she looked up, and then paused. Rising above her again was a large red creature, in similar build to the one who killed her father. In amazement she realized that a dragon had found her and had even attacked her without her noticing first. That alone stirred Nesa's pride and a deep snarl etched her face. Taking a few quick flaps she lithely slithered through the air towards the creature to it's level, taking on a defensive stance, but not immediately willing to attack. If the dragon attacks again, Nesa was prepared to use her sense disabling tactics to incapacitate it, and in fact, it seemed like a good idea to get back at the creature before she attempted to communicate. She doubted that the dragon knew she was intelligent, much less knew she could talk, so she held her tongue until the right moment. Circling opposite of the red dragon, Nesa ran her eyes down the creature, admiring it's shining scales that matched the color of fresh blood, and it's dense, rippling muscle. She had to keep herself from dropping her defense in awe. Ready for her attack, she looked towards the dragon's face, making eye contact. A white flash came from Nesa's pupils, and her blinding spell took effect immediately. Seeing her chance, she quickly spiraled up and dove towards the dragon, lightly scratching it along the same place it had scratched her when she darted through it's wings. Flapping to a standstill then hovering in front of the blinded dragon, Nesa scoffed proudly as she brushed her mind gently against the red's great consciosuness. Now we're even, great dragon.

She grinned cheekily at it, enjoying her sport. There was something about it's eyes that gave her pause for a moment, but then she ignored the warning sensation at the back of her mind. She easily circled on the spot, keeping the Fanghur in sight as it circled her, seemingly admiring the color of her scales. Just as she was about to dart forward and score another hit, she looked into it's eyes. There was something hypnotic about them, but before she could look away, they flashed a bright light, blinding her. Lora roared in indignation, slashing blindly with her claws. She heard a whisper of air to her left, and then roared again as she felt claws lightly scratch her shoulder. It didn't take any time at all for her to realize it was almost the exact same place she herself had injured the Fanghur. Even though she was blind, her eyes narrowed, realizing this was no ordinary wind-viper. Just as she realized this, a voice sounded in her mind. Now we're even, great dragon. Surprised that you were bested by a single Fanghur? said the mind, brushing lightly against her consciousness. She snarled in fury, then stilled her racing pulse and ignored the urge to sear the air with fire from her belly until the creature was no more than cinders before her. Even? You speak like a civilized being, yet you're no more than a thrice blasted Fanghur! she snarled, twisting in the air, trying to locate the source of the voice with her other senses. She snarled in frustration and arrowed straight up into the air then stopped abruptly and listened for the sound of pursuing wingbeats. It occurred to her while she waited and listened what had been strange about the creatures eyes. They hadn't been empty or driven by hunger like the other Fanghur she had encountered. They had been full of intelligence, as much as any dragon or two-leg. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

It seemed to be even more infuriated by the attack, which Nesa recognized as pride and possibly even something else, but she was unsure what. I cannot speak for the entirety of my kin, Nesa answered back in a gentle tone. though I was raised to be what you call intelligent, and even with just my strength alone, I am no ordinary Fanghur. The blood-scaled dragon darted straight upwards into the air, seeming to search Nesa out. She darted along with the dragon to it's height, keeping her distance from fear of the fire that she knew it could release at any moment. She kept her wing beats far and few, gliding in circles around the dragon as she kept a steady eye. Why do you hate my species, when I myself am not so different from you? Nesa asked, curious about the strangely intense anger coming from the dragon while again finding her eyes irresistibly drawn to it's dazzling scales. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Even if that weren't the case, Fanghur have been constantly ambushing me the entire time I've been in these mountains, it's getting annoying. So I decided to teach you a lesson before you got any bright ideas, Lora growled at her, her ruby head tilting from side to side as she tried to catch the sound of the Fanghur's wings. She thought she heard something off to her right and paused, her head twisted as she tried to catch the sound. After a longer than normal pause, she heard the light thump of wings against the air. She's gliding circles around me, she thought to herself. She paused to get the exact location, then whirled around. She couldn't exactly see what she was doing, but her vision was starting to come back, slowly. She could see enough to make out a dark shape gliding alongside her at a safe distance. Before the Fanghur had time to realize she could see again, although barely, she darted forward, her foreclaws extended. Within seconds she had reached her target, but instead of raking her claws along the Fanghur's chest like it had seemed she was going to, she darted upwards and slammed her spiked tail against it's head. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

I am sorry for your loss, but like I said before, I do not speak for the others of my race. I mean you no- She stopped suddenly when the dragon leaned forwards and attacked, swooping up and sending her tail into Nesa's head. She was unable to dodge the hit, but was able to release her tongue and let it catch the dragon's tail as it swooped by. Nesa grinned with satisfaction, through the throbbing stars flashing in her vision, as she felt the tingling sensation that meant that her nerve blocking technique had worked; effectively numbing the tail and rendering it useless for steering in flight and unable to use to attack again. It took a moment for Nesa to clear her head from the impact, but when she was able to regain stability, both in flight and in mind, she called back to the dragon with a serious tone. Do I have to disable all of your senses for you to see any? If anything, you are being the stonehead! Nesa paused, staring hard at the struggling dragon, then continued, As I was saying, I had no intention to attack you, since I am obviously not like the others. But I do apologize. Our race has always had a deep, irrational fear and hatred of dragons for generations, me being the exception. Nesa began to circle around the dragon again, albeit a bit faster and farther away. By the way, my name is Nesa. And I suggest you do not attempt to attack again, because the things that I've done to you are only temporary. And it is only a taste of what I can do. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Without it to stabilize her flight, she was left flapping harder and faster than normal to keep her body level. As it was, she was listing heavily to each side, drifting crazily despite her best efforts. To a being who was used to flying so effortlessly it looked like she was commanding the sky to bear her aloft, this graceless mockery of flight ticked her off severely. Hah! Like I'm going to believe you! Even if I did, as soon as I turned my back you'd probably call your buddies hiding below to come out and attack me! she snarled, watching the Fanghur through slitted eyes. She still couldn't see very well, but her sight was returning with each passing second, and now she could make out a blurred shape circling around her. It was farther away and moving faster than before. Valora grinned savagely at having taught her to fear a dragon, even if it couldn't see. If she had been able, she would have charged forward again and thrashed her some more, but with her tail hanging uselessly below her, there was nothing she could do but concede defeat for the moment. She would not give up though, she would find this Fanghur again and continue her education in the hierarchy of the world. For now though, I will be glad to let you run off to your caves with your cowardly friends. I have remained in your company for too long as it is, she grumbled, flaring her wings and rushing the Fanghur unsteadily, trying to drive her away. The ruby dragoness spat a ball of fire at her for good measure. She blinked and her vision cleared even more. Well at least the Fanghur knows how to be honest about some things, she said to herself. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

I only blinded you to defend myself, and the same with your tail. Nesa answered with a hint of disbelief in her voice. The dragon then threatened her again, blindly rushing at her and spitting a ball of fire, of which Nesa rolled out of the way and swung to hover just above the struggling red creature. My tribe is gone, and my family is dead. I have nowhere to return to, and if I actually did try to call a nest of Fangs to me, they would attack us both. Actually, it is why I was seeking out a dragon myself until you appeared, both because I want to find out more about you and your kind, and because I need to find a new life for myself out in the open. A touch of humor appeared in Nesa's voice as she continued, But to be honest, I expected something a bit more wise than this. She dove backwards and again began to fly circles around the dragon, changing her patterns unpredictably to make it even harder for her to catch, but still made no attempts to attack. She was trying to hold her mental scream back unless there was no other way to get this dragon to listen. And her sonic roar was the last resort, because it could deafen the dragon permanently and alert the nearby nests of Fangs. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Well if you only did it to defend yourself, you should leave before I get my sight back completely! she growled, ceasing her forward motion since it was pointless to try harrying her away when she couldn't see her. She hissed again and bared her fangs when the Fanghur questioned her intelligence. I'm smarter than any of your cur of a species, you included! she snarled, her pride stung. It wasn't her fault that the one time she was the ambusher, the target was smarter than the average bear. Hoping to draw her prey in closer, she stopped hissing and snorted derisively before turning and flying away. You're not worth my time, go back where you came from, she said disdainfully, her ears listening for the slightest sign of attack. After a few minutes of silent flying and listening for pursuit, she locked her wings and tilted into a shallow dive, like she meant to stop for the night. In the time she had been flying and listening, her sight had returned for the most part. She couldn't see as well as she might have liked, but she could see well enough to pick her enemy coming at her from a good ways off. I'll probably hear her before I see her, the dragoness thought to herself, twitching her tail experimentally to see how much of it was still deadened. She grimaced when it barely responded. Apparently it doesn't always wear off at the same pace, she grumbled, annoyed with the temporary disability. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

If anything Nesa noted that it did not like attacks on it's pride. She bore through the insults with a set face and did not react. She expected such things, even from the very creature she was trying to get to know. Nesa narrowed her eyes, and followed the dragon when it turned away. I have no life back there, so I am staying here, no matter how many empty threats and fire blasts you can throw at me. Now, are you going to hear me out, or do I have to force you to the ground to have a decent conversation with you? Nesa locked her wings similarly to the dragon and coasted on the air behind it, keeping such a keen eye on the red's movements that she was prepared both physically and mentally for any single hint of retaliation. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

As if you could, she snorted. She debated for a moment, then looked at the position of the sun. It was still a few hours to sunset, but truth be told, she was tired from her earlier fights and now trying to stay airborne without her tail to help her. Fine, we can land and talk, but I can't for the life of me figure out why a Fanghur would want to talk to a dragon, she grumbled, pulling in her wings even more. Without her tail to guide her, she landed awkwardly and ended up running several feet at a diagonal, trying to keep her balance. When she had her feet planted securely under her, she folded her wings and looked up, waiting for the Fanghur. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

That was all that she wanted. Nesa followed the dragon to the ground, wincing slightly as she watched it stumble to keep it's balance. Nesa slithered to the ground like a snake and came to a rest right in front of the dragon. She lay down in a submissive way to further show that she meant no harm, purring deeply while lowering her head. After a moment, Nesa spoke. Well, first, how about we introduce ourselves properly this time. I am Nèçztnàladach in the dialect of my clan. But you can call me Nesa. You probably have a few questions to ask me, seeing as a Fanghur even attempting to communicate with the outside world is normally unheard of. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

You don't have to do that, I'm not going to jump you, she snorted, sitting back on her haunches. Introductions? I can do that. I am Valora, somewhat pleased to meet you, Nesa, she replied, a grin spreading across her face despite her efforts to keep her face blank. You know, normally I could probably think up half a dozen questions, but right now I'm so sleepy, I can only think of one. What sort of power do you have that you can blind me with a flash from your eyes and deaden my tell with a bite? she asked, cocking her head at the Fanghur. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She muttered, glancing at the slightly stinging scratch on her back. Nesa turned back and narrowed her eyes at the question. You are probably lucky to have not seen it before, Valora. The Fanghur, especially champion breeds such as I, have more than the ability to fire a mental screech to distract enemies and food. Our abilities usually have the goal of disabling the senses of another, both giving us an opportunity to attack or flee, and most can be devastating when used correctly. Nesa blinked, My blinding sight, as you have experienced, comes only from direct eye contact. My family line has had this ability, so I knew I would have it as I matured. You can now look at me without fear, however. I can control it. Nesa paused, then looked away slightly. Yet I don't know where I got the nerve blocking spell, as my parents or descendants did not have it, nor anyone in my clan. I can scarcely control it either, so if you can, do not touch me; it is activated by touching my skin or tongue. Nesa lightened up a bit, then smirked slightly. And by the way, those are not the only abilities I have; I am also able to deafen anyone at close range with my roar, and my mind strike is unrivaled as of yet. I've had to use them a couple times, fending off entire nests of other Fanghur myself as I made my way from what the Dwarves call the Az Ragni River all the way to here. Nesa let a bit of the conflict she had from fighting her own people appear in her voice, but kept calm and lowered herself back down, noticing the wear on Valora's features. If you must rest, then rest now. I'll keep watch for anything our scuffle may have aroused, and when you wake, you can ask me the rest of your questions and I can ask a few of mine. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

That is interesting... Perhaps you are not a full-blooded Fanghur? Stranger things have happened. It would have to be far back in your lineage though, I would guess, since you look like a purebred, she continued, puzzled about the strange power her new companion wielded. Her ruby-and-rust red eyes flicked up to Nesa's, gratitude in their depths. I suppose it would be foolish of me to fall asleep in the company of someone I just met and who I was battling not to long ago, but with that power of yours, there's not really much I could do anyway, is there? Thank-you for keeping watch, she said, smiling. Truthfully, once she was fully healed from the effects of Nesa's power, she would have no trouble fending her off in the air using her firebreath, but she didn't mention it. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

No, I know that my clan remembers it's family lineage, and as far as I can remember, I am a pure Fang. It does not mean that we are different from each other. Maybe the ones who did fight the champions were those who did not survive. Nesa then nodded her head in gratitude towards Valora when she began to fall asleep, and then sighed to herself, now free to gaze into the gem-like scales of the dragon before her; a sight unmatched even by the finest dwarven rubies hauled from the depths of their mountains. It was so intriguing to her, closely studying the dimensions and shape of her cousin race and comparing it to hers. How was it that the Fanghur were feared and the Dragons were praised? Was it merely their scales and fire, or was it something more? Eventually, the questions left her and she slowly retreated into her own mind and began to create her own fictional realities to pass the time. What if she was a dragon? With dazzling orange scales like the sun as it sinks below the horizon, or rich dark green as the Beor Pines? Would she also be a sight to behold to the entire world, a beast terrible and fierce yet awesome and beautiful? Having the power of the ultimate creature in the world in her claws. . . She nearly lost herself to her daydreams before she snapped herself out of it when a gust of wind threw off her concentration. No, she was a Fanghur and that was all she was going to be. No more, no less. She sighed again as she grounded herself to the real world more by looking around, noticing how open the grasslands of Surda were. The looming backdrop of the mountains remained in the East, but when she turned West, she saw nothing. It made her feel so exposed, so open to the world, knowing that no mountain or cave will be there to hide in when danger arrives. The land of men, as she learned it to be through a man's own eyes. The sun had dipped significantly lower into the sky by the time she looked up, meaning that at least a few hours had passed through her daydream. It also amazed Nesa as to how bright and clear the sun and sky was; without clouds, without shade. It was an alien world to her, a world that she herself saw only from the cliffs of her nest, and appeared as only an image in the distance, yet now that she was in it, now that she was laying in the verdant fields, she felt all the more eager to leave her old life. It is my home now. She told herself, resigning herself to watch the dark mountains that now, despite being once her birthplace, now appeared hostile and foreboding. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

She picked her ruby head off the ground and yawned expansively, her barbed tongue licking her chops and teeth. She lurched to her feet and shook vigorously. The ruby dragoness had a moment of tense fight-or-flight instinct when she looked over and saw the Fanghur lying near her, but then she remembered her new acquaintance from the night before and relaxed. Good morning, Nesa. I take it all was quiet during the night? she said, lifting her snout to sniff for water. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

I have never seen the sun set on a flat horizon before yesterday. . . She began softly, And after I am rid of the shadow of these mountains, I shall see it rise too. . . She turned to Valora, her eyes distant. You can count yourself lucky that it was your tail that I disabled, because it most likely made any watchers think that I had mortally wounded you. And as it is tradition for most Fanghur to have their kills to themselves, we were left alone during the night. Nesa stood up on her legs and began to stretch out her long, serpentine body. She was slightly wary, but she could sleep tomorrow. Nesa took a deep breath and yawned. But I doubt they have turned their attention away from us. It would be best to move away from the mountains, as Fangs will only fly so far from their home. Once we find somewhere that is safe, we can get to know each other better. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

She walked for a few minutes, breathing in the scent of pure, cold mountain water. Before long, she stopped walking and stood in the shallows of a small pond fed by a thin creek running into it from the mountains. She dipped her head and drank slowly and deeply, mumbling happily into the water, watching the bubbles forming around her snout with the amusement of a hatchling. The ruby dragoness looked over her shoulder for Nesa, but didn't see her. Quick swim in the cold water and then I'll be fully awake, she said, plunging forward. The pond wasn't deep enough to dive properly, but she was able to sink down and roll in it. When she couldn't stand the cold anymore she walked back to the shore and shook herself dry. One more quick drink and then she was walking back to Nesa, humming with delight for a new day. I really wouldn't recommend a swim, the water is cold. Maybe when we get further away from the mountains, she said, chuckling. She lifted her wings to the sky and jumped, flapping quickly to gain height. If you don't mind, I would like to hear more about the Fanghur as we travel. Perhaps you can tell me what a flock of them was doing in Du Weldenvarden, if they never fly far from the Beors, she said. She didn't mean to sound angry, but a bit of her feelings for the loss of her brother leaked into her words, despite her trying to restrain them. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She glanced up at the mountains worryingly, hoping that any Fangs weren't watching. When Valora returned and jumped into the air, Nesa took a quick gulp of water with her eyes focused upwards before jumping up to meet Valora. She looked at the Beors once more, in a last check to see if anything followed, before she released her held breath and turned away for good. When she turned her attention to Valora she cocked her head. She did not really know what Du Weldenvarden was, but she knew it must have been somewhere far from here, considering that neither man nor dwarf memory contained the word. I don't know where that is, but that sounds unusual, for many Fanghur are afraid of the outside world. Yet they are even more concerned for the safety of their families and clans. They could have been forced by someone to do their bidding under the threat that they would watch their children be killed or tortured and see their family line broken, or even, eggs might have been taken and raised under someone else's care. However, like I said before, I only know what happened to my clan, and clans don't really communicate with each other or pass on the news of the destruction of a nest of Fanghur to another. In fact, it would be a joy to their rivals and they wouldn't say it to anyone else in fear that another would take their former place before them. If there was a group of Fanghur taken and put into slavery, I wouldn't know. Nesa then turned to Valora, Alright, now here's one of my questions that I've been brooding about for the past night: Why is it that dragons are appreciated more than us so much? I know that they are friends with the two-legged creatures, but I heard that before then they were similar to Fanghur in that they were ferocious and unable to communicate with those outside of their own. Is it just because of their bright appearance, their fire, or is it something else? _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I'm inclined to think they must have been someone's slaves, Galbatorix maybe. It was before the Fall, though not by much. They would have had to have been more intelligent and cunning than other Fanghur, like yourself, to take on my father like that. And he was big too, even the most determined flock of Fanghur would have thought twice, so they must have been commanded and not had any choice, she said to her new friend. She noticed Nesa's nervous glance toward the mountains and smiled. Relax, between the two of us, we are more than a match for any of your kind, she said, allowing ruby-red flames to billow around her jaws to punctuate the statement. She tightened her throat after a moment to cut off the stream of liquid fire. You already said the answer. It is because we are joined with the humans and elves. Well, for the most part. In some ways yes, it is because of our glittering hides and blazing fire and strength and wisdom, but at it's core, it is because of the closeness our races share. If all Fanghur were like you, and you lot were joined with them as well, I have no doubts you would be just as revered, fire and gem-like scales or no. I actually envy you your coloring, it must be so much easier for you to sneak up on your prey, Valora said, looping playfully around Nesa. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

The name sounded familiar to Nesa from the human's memories. I. . .I Don't know where I heard that name before, She lied, trying to prevent Valora from knowing about the men and dwarves she slaughtered for information, but I have heard it, and by the sound of it, he is someone who is disliked by many. But a nest of Fanghur, especially if forced to fight for their own survival, would be a ferocious weapon, even against a massive opponent. When Valora tried to soothe her worries about the possible attack from the Beors, she tried to prevent herself from glancing back again. It is not the normal Fanghur that I fear, but the champions and elders. Like how I caught you off guard with my abilities, they could easily surprise us. I am a champion, but I am certainly not the best. Nesa then chuckled. These men and elves seem much more gentle than the dwarves. Those little creatures would kill a Fanghur on sight, even if we try and talk to them. I used to live above the golden dome of Tarnag as a nestling before my clan was found out, we were almost killed off and the survivors, including me and my. . . father, She said the word with distaste, were chased to the end of the Az Ragni river valley. It is thanks to my coloring that we Fangs have survived so long in the presence of them. If we had bright scales as you, we would have been killed off long ago. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Not to mention he's a tyrant with an unhealthy thirst for torture, Lora growled, the flames back and flickering around her teeth. When she realized what she was doing, she clenched her throat again and doused the flames. You don't need to convince me, I know how dangerous they can be. I was ambushed by them plenty of times when I was traveling through the mountains, she replied, swiping her tail through the air with annoyance. It still bugged her that they had managed to sneak up on her. Even if she couldn't see them, she should have smelled them at least. So you're a champion, but not the best of them. What other abilities to champions like you have? I know about the mental screech your kind does, believe me, she asked, grimacing as she remembered the scream that was physical and mental at the same time. Don't worry about it, dwarves aren't too fond of dragons, even after all these years. I'd wager their dislike has actually increased since the Fall, now you mention it, Valora said, chuckling at the thought of the little-human-rocks. One had mistaken her for Murtagh's dragon one time and she had had to drop him in the middle of a lake before he quit chasing her. That makes me wonder if there are other Fanghur around the world, all with different patterns of camouflage, Valora said, pictures of black and white Fanghur blending in with snow-capped mountains, red and gold and black sinking into the background of a volcano flickering through her mind. She shook her head and snapped out of it. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Near extinction?! You mean that there are only a few of you left? Then how do you explain. . . She paused, not knowing whether it would be safe to ask about the blue dragon who killed her father. I've seen a dragon before though. A blue one who was traveling up the Az Ragni with a raft full of dwarves, and I think an elf some months ago. A brown haired man with a red weapon was riding on it. Do you know this dragon? She then moved onto answering the other questions that Valora asked. I am not sure. All I could guess is that they would be abilities that would disable your senses, some in familiar ways such as blinding or rendering something deaf, or sometimes in unfamiliar methods that even affect you in ways that are indescribable and unknown. They act as mechanisms of defense, attack, and even survival. My abilities were prized for their practicality in battle, and trust me, you have not fought a true champion yet. They are usually held back or stay behind, waiting for the lesser warriors to fight for them and bring them the spoils of their kill. When something attacks the actual nest though, I doubt that anyone has lived to tell of their powerful abilities. Many dragons, I wager, have fallen to them as well. She then looked into the distance about whether Fanghur existed elsewhere. Maybe, maybe not. We are a very seclusive species and we do not like to migrate, but there still is the possibility that groups were forced out of their former home and have to live somewhere else. Or eggs taken and hatched in unfamiliar lands. I don't know though. It would be an interesting find if they do exist. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Everyone knows who that dragon is, Valora chuckled, looking at Nesa out of the corner of her eye. That was Saphira, the dragon on who's shoulders rests the hopes of all of Alagaesia. It is her fate and her Rider's fate to rid us of Galbatorix, she said, a little jealously. You're lucky to have seen her. I've not had the pleasure, for numerous reasons. Mainly because they're not allowed to know there are Riders and dragons still bestriding the Earth and sky, but also because I look too much like the enemy, she continued, showing Nesa a picture of Murtagh's dragon Thorn. Not an exact likeness, but from a distance, enough to be fatal, she said. The ruby dragoness looked at Nesa uncertainly, then shrugged and looked forward again. Well, I don't know about you, but I don't plan on attacking any Fanghur nests in the near future, she said with a chuckle. It started to dawn on the young dragoness that she had been underestimating the Fanghur all her life, simply because they couldn't breathe fire. It's extremely possible, after all disaster forced the humans to migrate here, and they're about as big a pest you can find, so I'm sure the Fanghur would make it elsewhere, she said teasingly. She laughed aloud, letting her traveling partner know she was joking. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She was silent for several moments, surprised that the most important of dragons was right there in front of her, and even more, eager to meet the Fangs who came to meet her, even though they were hostile. Then Nesa scoffed lightly, Well, I did more than just see her. She killed my father and destroyed my clan. Nesa then paused to look over and Valora, who she assumed would react. But don't worry though, I hold no grudge against her, in fact, I thank her. I hated my father beyond anything in the world, because he was cruel, heartless, and only held me back. When he died and my clan scattered, I realized then that I was free to explore the world, and eventually I made it here. She sighed to herself. She was beautiful though, if were wondering. Nesa transmitted the most vivid image of Saphira she had, where her azure scales caught the afternoon light and made her glitter and shine. If only I could have met her in person. Yet I didn't know how to speak in the outsider's language yet. I couldn't have even if I tried. Though I hope she does accomplish what she and her Rider set out to do. I'm starting to not like this Galbatorix. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

If she's leaving the mountains to seek revenge on Saphira, I'll have to stop her, she thought to herself, mentally preparing herself for a fight. No sooner had the thought bloomed in her mind, than Nesa was telling of how she despised her father and was grateful for the chance to leave the mountains and explore and live out from under his rule. Well I'm sure she would be pleased to know the assist she gave you, if you ever meet again, she said, chuckling. Valora gasped at the picture Nesa placed in her mind. Ahhh... She definitely is one of the fairest of my species... Not like me though, her scales are too dark, nowhere near as brilliant or sparkling. I mean, look at my color compared to hers! she said, a note of vanity ringing clearly in her mind. She grinned when the Fang spoke of Galbatorix. Nesa, keep that line of thought up, and we might just have to make you a dragon in all but blood, she said, butting the Fang's shoulder with her own before tilting her wings and sliding away again. She sniffed and looked at the ground, thinking for a moment. Something else Nesa had said had caught her attention. Nesa, if you didn't always know how to speak in the language of two-legs, then how did you learn? she asked curiously. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Do not worry. She is beautiful in her own way. You are beautiful in another. Both of you are special and magnificent creatures in my eyes, and I would rather not compare you because it would be too frustrating to choose which one would be better. Nesa smiled, and welcomed the bump to her shoulder. But then Valora's next question took Nesa off guard, causing her muscles and jaw to tense. I. . . It is best that you don't know. . . Yet. I still have many secrets that I'd rather keep to myself, and this is one. She hoped that the excuse would be enough to hold off Valora until she was ready to talk. Many lives were rather brutally taken to give her the knowledge of how to speak, and she rather would not tell another about it until she knew that she could trust Valora completely. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

You are a good friend Nesa, and a wise one as well, she said, arcing up and over the Fanghur, snorting a small, playful ribbon of fire at her. She righted herself quickly, then looked at Nesa. That makes me nervous when you say it like that, but I will respect your wishes. You can tell me when you're ready, she said solemnly, watching her friend closely. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Nesa said with her gaze set, But our friendship is only beginning. I don't want to upset it now by sharing secrets with each other. Nesa then felt a grumble of hunger come from her belly. Looking down, she spotted a herd of wild cattle below. If you will excuse me, I need to eat. She turned away and began to circle down towards the herd as silently as possible. She eyed a couple of large, fat cows that were on the border of the herd, which made her mouth water. Before the cattle could sense her, she sent a mental spear into both of the animals; penetrating their minds and killing them on the spot. The herd jumped as two of their own fell to the ground without many any noise, and ran away. Nesa ignored the fleeing livestock and landed next to the dead pair in front of her, immediately beginning to feast on the nearest one. The other one is for you. Nesa said to Valora between bites, Unless you don't want it. I'll gladly have it. I haven't had anything for a while. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I caught a small Nagra a few days before I met you. Blasted thing was hard to kill. I really didn't want to roast it, but I didn't have a choice, the stupid thing wouldn't die, Valora said, gliding down and landing smoothly beside Nesa. She was happy to have the use of her tail again and hummed, expressing her contentment. Although I have to admit, the thing was rather tasty cooked. Still, I prefer my meat uncooked, she added, laying down. She peered at the scales on her forelegs, wrinkling her nose in distaste. She had some sort of film on them, probably from the water she had swam in earlier. She looked at her back legs and wings. Dwarven runoff, I'll bet anything. Which is odd, considering they're so careful about where the stuff from their mines runs. Don't worry, we won't get sick. Well, I might, if I have to look at it on my scales any longer, she said, and proceeded to start bathing herself, her barbed tongue rasping over the smooth scales on her legs and chest. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

I wonder if you can cook this cow over here, so I can see what it tastes like. Nesa turned and sniffed the film covering Valora's legs. Don't worry, it's just a type of wet sandy mud that they use to prevent their tools from heating up. Trust me, I practically lived in Tarnag for most of my life, so I know how they drill and dig, and I tasted it myself when I drank from the water.

She parted her jaws and loosed a careful stream of ruby fire, which cooked the cow in question to what two-legs would have called the perfect temperature. There you go, have at it. And that doesn't really help me, Nesa. You know how vain I am, she said in an aggrieved tone, turning back to her scales and attacking them with a renewed vigor. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Both the sight of the red flame and the pungent, delicious smell rising from the cow made her feel warm with delight. At Valora's invitation, Nesa lunged forwards and took a bite of the cow's flank, gasping as the intense flavor of the hot, cooked meat filled her mouth. She savored it for a while before swallowing, a large grin marking her face. I now see why two-legs prefer their meat cooked. It's amazing! She took another bite into the juicy meat, growling with pleasure, If I had the ability to breathe fire, I would have cooked my meals from here on. She then looked back up at Valora, a smug grin on her face. Well, it comes right off. Also, I hear the same stuff is really good for polishing.

I've also heard they add herbs and things to the meat while it cooks to increase the flavor. Don't ask me which one's though, I don't know, she added. You really think so? she asked, arcing her neck and twisting her from side-to-side to get a better look. She didn't know if it was wishful thinking or not, but they did seem to be a little brighter. She hummed happily and continued to clean her scales. She only had a little bit on her right wing left to get off, and it was a particularly stubborn patch. So, where do you want to go after here? Any place you'd really like to see? she asked, mumbling audibly as she gently chewed at a spot with the consistency of molasses between two of her scales. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

After a few weeks of flying around without proper daylight, I got tired of them looming over me. She reached out with a talon and snagged a bit of meat off of the cow's haunch. She nibbled on it daintily, thinking. I suppose if you wanted to see something really impressive, besides your mountains, we could go to the ocean, she said. She well remembered the feeling she had when she had first seen the endless expanse of blue water. She hummed quietly in her mind at the memory. She looked up from her snack and raised her wings experimentally, twisting them and watching the play of light over the scales. You were right, by the way. That coating or whatever it was made them sparkle like never before. We should go back and dunk you in it, see what we come up with, she said, eyeing the Fanghur's mottled hide. If it shines your scales like it did mine, you'd give any dragon a run for her money, she added. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Suffice to say it's a body of water bigger than any lake or mountain you've seen in your life. And that's including any of the Beor Mountains, she said, smiling as she remembered the vast blue expanse. She showed a picture to Nesa, then looked at her. Trust me, it's even more beautiful in person, she said.

Even when used to the massiveness of the Beor Mountains, and surrounded by the endless flatness of the Surdan Grasslands she could not fathom a mass of water of that size with her imagination. That sounds like a sight unlike I've ever seen. How deep is the ocean? Does it have an end or does it have another shore? And are there things that live in the water? She asked to pass the time, swerving through the wind currents like a massive viper. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Yes, it has another shore, though I've never been to any of those lands. Of course it has things that live in it, just as any other healthy body of water does. It's deeper than anybody has ever tried to swim before, she said. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

It only revealed to her that the world was far more expansive as it was tall; that the size of the lands outside of her home dwarfed even the Beors on the large scale. A world that was fresh for her to explore and full of all different wonders and sights she had to see. She only nodded and flew in silence with Valora for a few hours, monitoring the sun as it set. However, before it dipped below the horizon, a subtle scent caught Nesa's nostrils with a gust of wind coming from the South. The air was fresher, wetter, and cleaner than normal, and carried a slight taste of salt. Does this mean we're getting close? Nesa asked Valora, hoping she detected the same smell. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

She enjoyed nothing more than this, the freedom of flight without the pressure of a goal or urgent problem to spur her on. So intense was her joy that she barely noticed the passing of time, and was surprised when Nesa contacted her and she noticed for the first time how far the sun had sank towards the horizon. She dipped down beside the Fanghur and sniffed the breeze she had caught. A smile teased her lips, showing her sharp fangs as they lifted. Yes, we're almost there. We should stop for the night, the best time of day to gaze on the ocean is at dawn, or at least it is in my opinion. We'll let you decide tomorrow, she replied, locking her wings together and drifting down slowly. When she was about a hundred feet from the soil, she tilted her wings in the sockets so that she was drifting downward in a lazy spiral. Before long, she was back-flapping to a stand-still before dropping to earth. She ran forward a few steps to keep her balance, then folded her wings and waited for Nesa to join her. I know you don't want to wait, but trust me, you'll appreciate it in the morning, she called, lifting her head and watching the Fanghur flying high above. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

If we must. She huffed. Although strangely, she was comforted by the thought. Valora seemed completely relaxed, and seemed to only want to bring out the most enjoyment she could get out of everything she did. Nesa dived and landed on the ground in a slithering motion. The sun was barely dipping below the horizon when she looked off into the distance. She sniffed the air for a last confirmation that people weren't around, and when she was satisfied, she lay down her head. Alright then, I'll hold you to that promise. Nesa told Valora lazily before drifting off rather quickly, due to the wear in her wings. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

After a couple of hours, she stood and shook, loosening her muscles. She peered into the blackness, with not even the moon to light the darkness. Taking a quick look at Nesa to make sure she was still asleep, she walked some distance away before jumping into the sky and propelling herself up. She was thirsty and she could smell fresh water close by, but it was too dark to go blundering around looking for it, and she was hoping she might glimpse the stars reflecting off of the surface. She spotted what she was looking for before long, and landed amid a spray of water in the large pond. She drank a bit, then dove, playing in the water. She didn't stay long for fear that something would happen to Nesa while she slept. She swam to the shore after a few minutes, shaking herself to rid her scales of most of the water. She soared lazily through the sky, finding the dark blot that was Nesa resting upon the ground easily. She landed quietly a few hundred yards away and walked to her friend before curling up again, still watching for danger as night turned into day. When the horizon started to brighten, she poked Nesa with the tip of her tail. Wake up Nesa, we should get moving if we want to reach the shore before dawn, she said quietly, still poking her shoulder. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She saw glimpses of the Beors and visions of her flying out with Valora into the green lands of Surda, replaying the fight that she had and the quick bond of friendship that they gained together. Then the dream skipped forwards towards the ocean, which she still could not fully imagine, but could envision a large blue expanse. She flew past the blue and farther on, with it never seeming to end, before the blue faded to black and the stars floated around her, in a place that was more peaceful than anything she had ever encountered. She felt herself relax, and she felt that she was going to stay there forever, until a bright twinkle of light came from overhead, which drew her upwards. A poke on her side brightened the world around her and brought back the feel of grass underneath her. She opened her eyes, blinking the sleep out of her eyes. It was still dark, but she could make out a few words in her delirium from Valora that they needed to reach the shore before sunrise. Her eyes snapped open when they realized as to what it truly meant and she stood and shook herself to full awareness. Alright. I'm up. Let's see this ocean. She smiled as she raised her wings and leaped into the still sky-lit sky.[/i] Flying as fast as she could, following the soft breeze coming from where she was headed, it was not long before the black horizon seemed to flatten considerably; more than the gentle hills of Surda. It was what she assumed to the ocean. As she got closer, the slight grey glow of dawn was beginning to appear in the sky behind her, and gradually she heard a soft roaring sound coming from the shore. Is that a landslide? Nesa nervously asked Valora, questioning the strange sound. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

For you to not know where you're going, you certainly locked in on the position of the ocean! she laughed, speeding along behind her friend. After a few moments, she became aware of a crashing sound on the wind. She smiled and looked at Nesa, waiting for the sound to break through her excitement and register with her mind. When it finally happened, the ruby dragoness burst out laughing, her mirth so great that flames roiled off her tongue and fangs. No, don't get mad. It's just that your reaction was almost the exact same as mine. It's not a landside, that's the force of the ocean pounding against the land, she said, looking at Nesa with sparkling eyes. OOC: Ima let you get them to the ocean, I want to see Nesa's reaction. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

The water is that rough? I wonder what makes it splash like that? She doubled her efforts as the sun grew closer to rising, and in the new light, she could see the border between land and water. The thing that troubled her though, was that in either direction there was no end to the shore in sight, and the water, which also had no end in the far distance, began to show a slight tint of blue as the sky turned pale. It was truly massive. Almost beyond comprehension to Nesa, making her feel so small, causing her eyes to widen with this whole, incredibly massive feature added to the world she knew. A stream of white sand stood as a border between the earth and the blue void, which Nesa targeted to land on. She didn't spiral, but instead slowly dived until she was just above ground, reaching out and walking to a stop in the surprisingly soft material, letting her body slither to absorb the impact. The roar of the ocean was now incredibly loud, and the light was bright enough to see foamy walls of water leap into the sky and then topple onto the ground, crawling up the shore a distance before sinking back to be overtaken by the next one. Nesa had never seen anything of it's like, and it also impressed her with it's chaotic turbulence, yet at the same time it's graceful and rhythmic movements, which was truly nature in perfect harmony. Nesa looked up and saw the sun behind her begin to rise, coloring the world in tinges of pink and orange nearly in an instant, making her gasp with the amazing sight before her. As if a curtain was drawn, the true deep blue of the ocean appeared before her as a great flat mass that forever reached into the distance, showing it's true beauty as a whole new realm in the world. She never knew that water, which she only knew before as lakes and rivers, would be so powerful, nor did she think there would be so much of it. Nesa's heart quickened with joy at the sight, and her jaw dropped from the splendor. You are right. Nesa agreed, near speechless, This is truly an amazing sight. . . The wind, the waves. . . I'ts breathtaking. . .I've never seen anything near as beautiful as it. Is the water fresh? She didn't let Valora answer the question. She stepped forwards into the wet sand, which formed deep imprints under her weight and felt satisfying to stand in. She let the next foaming mass of water come to hit her, which reached her ankles. It was cold, but not freezing cold like mountain water, which was again relaxing and refreshing. She lowered her head down and scooped up a mouthfull before immediately spitting it out when the sharp taste of salt hit her tongue. She shook her head, trying to rid herself of the taste, but then smiled at Valora and gestured towards the ocean playfully to get her to join her in the relaxing water. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I told you it was beautiful, she called, laughing. She watched the Fanghur walk forward into the ocean, the briny water swirling around her paws. Wait, no! Don't drink- she yelled, diving forward. She pulled up, seeing it was too late. She laughed so hard her wings locked and she almost fell out of the sky. Well at least you didn't swallow it. That would have been a big mistake, she chuckled, flapping to regain her height. She saw Nesa grin at her playfully, then look at the water. The ruby dragoness smiled, then arced out over the water. When she was sufficiently far out to avoid the sharp coral reefs, she pulled her wings in completely and twisted her body into an arrow shape. Her head and the rest of her body sliced perfectly into the water in the trough between two waves. She looked around, marveling at all the different fish that had gone scurrying away from her explosive entrance. Come on Nesa, this is amazing! she yelled with her mind. Just to see if she could, she rolled over onto her back and loosed a tremendous blast of ruby fire. It blasted through the water and lanced the sky like a beam of red energy, marking her location. As soon as she closed off the stream of fire, water poured in from the sides of the "hole" it had made, closing off the sky once more. Lora chuckled smugly in her mind and rolled back over, propelling herself deeper with massive strokes of her paws. She writhed in exultation, the water was perfect, not too cold and not too warm, even though it was early in the morning. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Valora then dove past Nesa into the deeper part of the water. When she gave of the bright red beacon of fire for her to follow, Nesa prepared herself. Even though she had never swam in water that could fully submerge her, she knew she could swim decently. Between waves she leaped in the air and in a large arc, came up and down back into the waves. The water hitting her was a new sensation that caused a chill to run up her body. Opening her eyes, she could see in the dimly lit water fish of all different sizes and colors, green, wispy plants that swayed in the currents, and what appeared to be colored rock that was molded in various strange shapes. She stayed there for several seconds, awestruck at her surroundings. It was nothing like the few lakes she had swam in before, which were cold, silent, and lifeless. The ocean harbored life in places that she never imagined life could be. Then her need to breathe kicked in, and letting natural instinct kick in, she slithered like a snake in the water, not using her limbs as much to swim as much to guide and steer, and then breached the surface. She was only able to get a short breath before a wave hit her, submerging her briefly, before she breached again and could fill her lungs completely and return to the oceanic world below. She swam for several minutes and eventually spotted Valora in the distance, her red, shining scales in stark contrast to the blue haze, and swam to her. I'm speechless. . . Nesa said, looking around again, I never imagined that plants and animals alike could live so abundantly underwater, and not only that, but thrive. It only makes me eager to see more of what this world has to offer. Warmness filled her heart and she was about to ask Valora to join her as friends to explore the world together, but when she turned her attention away briefly, she noticed that the colored rock around them and the fish were gone, replaced by a barren, sandy floor that was far deeper. Something's wrong. Nesa said, scrambling to the surface. When she looked up at the shining border between the water and air, she noticed that it didn't rise and fall like it did near the shore; there were no waves in sight. When she finally got her head up and out of the water, the water was flat, and even more to her horror, the land that she was in sight of only minutes ago was completely gone from sight. She struggled and was able to get her wet wings out of the water, able to lift off into the air, but even when she flew as high as she could, there was only flat blue ocean in all directions, which caused fear to clutch at Nesa's heart.

I know, it's amazing! Life is as abundant here as it is on land! she said, twisting through the water. She loved swimming almost as much as she loved flying. After a moment Nesa's alarm registered in her mind and Valora looked around for her friend, trying to see what had scared her. She spotted her quickly, struggling to take to the air with her wet wings. Puzzled, Lora swam swiftly to the surface and burst into the air, her experience making it easier for her. What's the matter Nesa? she asked, looking around. All she could see was water in every direction, but she didn't know why that would be a problem. She shivered slightly in a cool breeze that came up from the water. The ruby dragoness spat a ball of flame and flew through it, allowing the fire to dry her scales and warm her. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She looked about, hoping to see any sign that they could make it back. The only guide they had was the sun, which still hung in the Eastern sky, but it was rapidly rising, seemingly brightening every second, and the temperature was rapidly increasing to a point that was near intolerable for Nesa, who was still accustomed to the shadowy coolness of the mountains. She hissed in discomfort and shook her head. And I can't see very well either.

Alright then, let's head back to shore and find you some shelter from the heat. It's still there Nesa, the underwater currents must have pulled us out further than we'd thought, so we're too far out to see it. See the position of the sun? If we hurry and align ourselves with where it was when we started swimming, we'll find land in no time, she promised, following her own words as she spoke. She altered the flap of her wings until she was over and slightly in front of Nesa. The ruby dragoness looked down and was pleased to see a portion of her shadow was over the Fanghur's head, hopefully reducing some of the pain she felt from the light. If you're ready then, let's go, she said, surging forward. She flew as quickly as she could without leaving Nesa behind or her shadow leaving her friend's eyes. As it was, it was over an hour before the shoreline was easily visible to them. Thinking that Nesa would want to reach it as quickly as possible, Valora increased her speed and before long, was circling down to the beach. She looked around for something to shelter Nesa from the sun, but had to settle for digging a deep trench in the sand. She used the excess to build a wall facing the west. Here, lie in that and see how you feel, she said, backing away so the Fanghur could lie down. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

When Valora raised herself above Nesa and eclipsed the sun, Nesa was able to open her eyes somewhat, but not fully due to the glare from the reflective water underneath, which also contributed to the pain. As well the water had already began to evaporate off of her, chilling her to the bone. But she knew that if they were not near shore, then her problems would quickly change to overheating. She followed Valora, trying to keep in her shadow to the best of her ability, following her for well over an hour with no signs of land. The air quickly dried her, and the sun, unblocked by clouds, began to warm her, at first to a comfortable level, then uncomfortably hot as her wings and dark skin took in the radiation. When land was in sight, she was heavily panting and her eyes burned. She nearly collapsed a few times, but caught herself. Nesa was surprised at her weakness when exposed to the elements. Unlike Dragons, she guessed that her species was not adapted to such extreme exposure. She made it to the beach, half diving, half spiraling, and landing hard on the ground. The sand absorbed the impact easily, but to her displeasure it was also hot. She wasn't truly aware of what Valora was doing until she called Nesa over, telling her to lay in a trench she made to shield herself from the light and heat. Nesa obeyed without question and lay in the hole. The sand underneath her was cool and damp, absorbing her heat and comforting her. An hour passed, and her panting stopped. Her vision was slightly hindered still from the blinding light, but she was able to open her eyes fully. She turned to Valora. Thank you. She told her gratefully. I agree with you that the sea is beautiful. . . But it is also more dangerous than any living monster. I do not doubt it has claimed many a life. She crawled out of the hole, covered in sand, I'm fine now. It was the light reflected off of the water that really got to me. It's strange that although I can blind others without a second thought I cannot tolerate it myself. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

She watched her friend closely as she lay in the trench, still dangerously hot and tired from the excursion. After an hour or so the Fanghur felt well enough to leave the shelter, causing Valora to mumble in worry and eye her friend closely. If it had been up to her, she wouldn't have let her leave until the sun was well down. As it was, they still had most of the day left to go. Yes it is, but I've never seen it dangerous in such a way. Would you perhaps like to give it another shot when the light isn't so bad? I would hate for this to ruin you from the sea, she said, looking out over the water. If you'd prefer, we can stay in the shallows, she added, looking back at her friend. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She turned back to Valora with a small smile. When my eyes are accustomed to the open sun and my body can withstand such an encounter again, I will return to explore more of the life undersea. I doubt I would survive if I was pulled out again now, and I don't want to risk it. Nesa looked in the distance, towards the West. Would you join me to those cliffs over there? They look like they would have a magnificent view, and a good place to relax. She gestured towards a piece of land that jutted out, surrounded by white cliffs and topped with lush grass. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Well if you're feeling up to it, she said, frowning at her friend. She walked across the sand, enjoying the feeling of the warm soil under her paws and between her talons. She shook vigorously, loving the warmth all around her as the sun continued to rise. When she reached the cliff, she walked to the very edge and leaned over it, looking at the sea below. There was a jumble of sharp, pointed rocks with the sea roiling about them, promising injury to anyone foolish enough to attempt a dive right there. She snorted and pulled back, looking at the bigger picture now. The sun behind her was lighting up the sea and earth with the most brilliant of hues as it rose. She particularly enjoyed the blue, but the rosy color the sun made on the sand was a close rival. As she looked out to see, a pod of dolphins appeared in her sight, diving and walking across the surface of the sea with wild abandon. She had heard tales of the Nidwhal that lived in the waters of the ocean, and how they were supposed to be related to dragons, but she had always felt that the true water-cousins of the dragons were the dolphins. She smiled as she watched them play, and pointed them out to Nesa with a foretalon. Aren't they amazing? I would say that between the three of our species, they are definitely more suited to the water. They make me look like a cow trying to fly, she said, chuckling. Her eyes sparkled brightly as she watched their antics. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She felt the sand grind underneath her, which felt quite satisfying. Now cooled off, and with her wings folded, she absorbed just the right amount of heat from the surrounding land and sun, which made her feel extremely comfortable as she rose up the slope. Nesa settled herself at the edge of the cliff, not bothered by the long drop or the sharp rocks that lined the bottom. She was used to more dangerous ledges. She looked around and sighed in pleasure at the view. It was at the proper height, where the detail and colors of the world stood out in it's full glory, with hues and shades intertwining and mixing to form the glorious painting made from nature. In the distance, she could see a group of strange, grey animals that swam and played in the water as a dragon plays in the air; swift, agile and free. When Valora acknowledged them Nesa blinked. They are the children of the ocean; built to survive it's dangers and swim freely with joy as they are now. As are you a child of the sky. You were made to survive out in the open world under the full sun. I should be most comfortable in the confines of a shadowy cave, but ever since I witnessed the dragon Saphira, in all her glory and majesty, I had to know what land could create a creature of such beauty. And now that I know that I am only scratching the surface of the secrets that await me. . . Nesa turned to Valora, eagerness shining in her eyes, I want to explore it all. I want to see it all. And then after I have visited every land and have seen every sight to see, I may die happy. Nesa paused, then took a deep sigh before looking back towards the sea. But I also would need to be protected, at least at first as I get stronger, and I want to share that experience with someone.

I would be happy to accompany you on your journey, and fight by your side when necessary. Speaking of you getting stronger though, it would be good to know how proficient a fighter you are. You say you are a Champion Fanghur, does that mean you have been trained, at least to some degree, to fight? If not, I'm sure we could come up with something to teach you, she said to her friend. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

You saw me fight before, remember? And we both know who was the clear victor of that fight. As a champion, I specialize in ambush; I render my enemies senseless and then take them when they are blind to it. In physical combat, I may not be as proficient in power as you are, as you have to rely on your claws, tail, and fire to kill, but I am far more precise with my blows. I have to be to hit my target when going against a foe who blindly flails around. I have to be able to take down a creature ten times my size with a single swipe of my claw or a single bite. That scratch on your back is all the proof you need in how accurate I am. Nesa chuckled at the irony that both she and Valora were to share that matching scar, that it was the mark of the fight that was the beginning of their friendship. She turned back to the ocean and sighed. What other wonders are there to see? She thought to herself eagerly. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Although she was of the opinion that if it hadn't been for Nesa's strange abilities, the fight would have gone a lot differently. Then a disturbing thought occured to her. Nesa, how heavily do you rely on your ability to cripple your opponents? I thought you said it wasn't very reliable, since you couldn't control it? If that's the case, you need to strengthen yourself so you're not crushed by an opponent stronger than you when your abilities fail, she said, frowning at her friend. As a champion fighter, that should have already occurred to her. She is young though, probably no older than me in the eyes of her people, she reminded herself, hiding the thought from Nesa. She grinned and looked over at her shoulder, inspecting the thin cut on her rippling hide. Yes, I quite like it actually. It makes me look fierce, I think. I can't wait for it to heal up and scar over, she said, licking the wound. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

I have many different ways to disable an opponent apart from my ability to numb someone's body. That is the only one that I cannot really control. My blinding stare I can use at will, whenever I am able to make eye contact and also my mind when I am able. But last of all I can make a call so loud that I can burst the ears of anyone within a large distance from me. So loud that I am able to tremble the earth, cause landslides and avalanches, and be heard several miles away. That is my most powerful attack, but of course, if someone innocent is in range, or someone that I want to protect, I won't do it because they are also in danger. Not unless it is absolutely necessary. Nesa then sighed and lay down her head on the soft grass. None of my abilities, short of the nerve blocking touch, have failed me yet. And I am trained in skirting around direct attacks and using as little energy as possible. With this strategy, I've defeated and slain six champions of my own kind, all of which were larger and older than me. Nesa then looked up and grinned. It matches mine.

Very well then, you're better off than I thought. Don't let it go to your head though. No matter how good you are, overconfidence is every warrior's enemy.

I do indeed know. Overconfidence is what earned me this. She overturned her right forepaw to reveal the white scar that ran across her palm. You may not know, but Fanghur look down upon those who gain scars from battle. It means you let your enemy hit you, showing weakness. The only reason why I was able to succeed so far was because I hid this scar well. But now that I am no longer of my kin, I guess I am free to get as many wounds as I wish. Though I still will avoid them to the best of my ability. She smiled as she turned her paw back down and looked around. The question on where to go next puzzled Nesa. Well, I would desire to go North, to see the landscapes that men and elves occupy, but from what I understand, the lands there are in turmoil of war. She looked down the coastline. Perhaps it would be best to remain close to the coast to the best of our ability as we fly to the Northern border of their lands, and then maybe the war will be over and we can turn East to where the elves lie before going back South.

We love our sparkling scales, but we also have much respect for battle-scarred members of our race, Valora said. It amazed her how different her own culture was from that of Nesa's, even though their races might look similar. Like humans and elves, she thought to herself, slightly amused by the comparison. Du Weldenvarden is always worth seeing. The oldest trees of it's heart are far bigger than any you could find, even if you were to look in the Beor Mountains, she added, curling up on the sand. She spread her wings out, covering almost half of the available space on the white sand, allowing the thin membranes to soak in the warm light. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

After a minute she shook her head. We should wait awhile longer, just to be safe. It wouldn't do to have you getting sick again. It might be worse next time since you're already weakened, she said hesitantly. She didn't want the Fanghur to think she was calling her weak, which she wasn't. She was simply genuinely worried for her health. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Her mind trailed off, brooding on the concern coming from Valora. Does she think I am weak? . . . No. No, she only wants me to be safe. A voice in the back of her head, instinctual in nature, prodded her in response. But she said you were weak. She noticed the ill thought and removed it from her mind to the best of her ability. She did think that, but now she is my friend. She knows that I am strong, at least, in my realm. And soon shall I become strong here. The self-speech boosted her confidence a bit and she lay next to Valora with a relaxed sigh. So be it. I admit that I'll need a rest anyway before we begin our travels. She carelessly smiled, gazing off into the wide ocean and watching the strange grey creatures swim away as cheerfully as they did when they came. [i]So while we're here, how about we get to know each other better, as we are going to probably be together for some time. . . Where were you born?" Nesa asked after a long pause, curious about what lands the great creature beside her came from. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I was born in a cave high above the dwarven city of Tarnag. It's a beautiful city if you haven't seen it; made from white marble and gemstones and topped with a great gold capped temple at it's peak, but when I was young my tribe was found out, and the few survivors of the first hunting parties were chased to the borders of the Beors. The strain of her childhood echoed in her voice as she continued, Food was harder to find and water even more so in that barren place, so most of my rather miserable life I struggled to survive. And if not for Saphira's passing, I would have remained in my cave to this day, fearing the world instead of desiring to immerse myself in it. Nesa paused, remembering the harsh living conditions before that life-changing event. Then a question popped up in her head. When was this "Fall" of the dragons? And why did this Galbatorix decide to do such a thing? She asked, curious about the dragon's past. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

You know what? Fangur are tougher and wiser than I would have given them credit for, before meeting and talking with you. If it had been dragons the dwarves of Tarnag had attacked, we would have ravaged their city until nothing was left, even if they managed to kill us all in the attempt. Our pride and vanity are legendary, but so is our rage, and for good reason, she said, chuckling and shaking her head at her races shortcomings. She flinched a little when Nesa asked about the Fall. She, like most dragons, hated to think of it and the lives that were lost because of it. Still, she felt Nesa had the right to know, so she answered back. The Fall happened almost exactly one-hundred years ago. Why did he do it? I can't say for sure, although some believe that it's because he was driven mad by the loss of his true dragon and blamed the Riders and their Elders for his death. I'm of the opinion his evil was always there and would have revealed itself eventually, even without Jarnunvost's death. That only sped up the process, she replied. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

We hate and fear the dwarves as much as they us, and it's this mutual avoidance that has probably kept us alive. In a fight we are outmatched. They know our weaknesses from generations of rivalry, and we would fall long before they would. If you were faced against an enemy that could easily kill you, would you still fight? Nesa's eyes then narrowed with strain and confusion as the new information pressed into her mind. Jarnunvosk? Elders? Dragon Riders? I know nothing of these. She admitted, slightly embarrassed from her lack of knowledge. Also how could Galbatorix live that long if he is only a man? I remember dwarves bragging about their short lifespans, and a century is an old age even for a dwarf. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

If this enemy had managed to get my bloodlust up, then yes, I would stay and fight no matter the cost. Perhaps the only thing that would deter me is if I had a nest of hatchlings to protect, then I would get them to safety while my mate held them off. Such is the way of dragons, she said, pressing a few ancestral memories into her words. The memories were of dragons and fights long gone, but they proved her point. It's very simple. The Elders were the oldest, wisest, and most powerful dragon and Rider pairs of the Order. Jarnunvosk was the name of Galbatorix's true dragon, the one he lost in an ambush of Urgals. He was the dragon that chose Galbatorix, instead of being forced to serve him as Shruikan has. Also, when a human Rider was bonded to their dragon, they gained immortality. Unlike the elves, whose entire race gained immortality in the original joining, it appears that long lives were only granted to those humans chosen by a dragon. This blessing, or curse in this case, did not pass with the death of his dragon. There were many instances of human Riders living many years longer than the average human, even if their dragon had died, she explained, shifting on the sand so that her right side was more exposed to the sun. One thing that has always interested me, is what would happen if a dragon's body, and not their Eldunari, died, and they were bonded to a human. Would the human eventually die of old age? she continued, a pensive note to her thoughts. She blinked after a moment, then looked at Nesa. But that is a discussion for another time, perhaps after you've come to understand more about what I've told you so far, she said, smiling again. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She disagreed with the dragons' way of thinking and thought it to be rather foolish, but of course, she didn't openly protest in fear that it might insult her. And maybe it was because the instinctual thinking of a dragon was different than a Fanghur. However she began to get a headache from the strange information about the Dragon Riders, none of which she knew nor understood why a dragon and human would bond together and thus make the human immortal. When Valora finished. She made a pained smile, Yes, maybe this discussion is for another time. I don't understand a thing you are saying. She laughed, wanting to take a break from the extensive history. She assumed that she will learn it in due time. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

The coarse, coughing growl of her laugh sent plumes of sand drifting into the air from her laughing so hard. After a minute or so she regained her composure and looked at her friend with twinkling eyes. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to laugh, it's just... I've grown up with this history, I never stopped to consider how convoluted it might sound to someone who hadn't.

It was several seconds later that she interpreted it as a laugh. It was interesting though. . . He was new to what laughter was, never having experienced it herself, and only heard it amongst dwarves. She never expected to hear something of the sort come out of a dragon. Instead of answering directly to what Valora said, letting it pass by, Nesa tilted her head quizzically. I've never laughed before, to be honest. What does it feel like? She asked with an air of interest. The history of the outside world maybe too broad a subject to move onto yet, but this was fascinating to her. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Valora said, confused. She couldn't imagine someone going through life without ever laughing. She looked at the ground, a puzzled look on her face as she tried to think of a way to describe it. After a bit she gave up and looked at Nesa. I can think of no way to describe it, you must experience it for yourself, she said, shrugging in apology. She looked up at the sky, looking for the sun's current position. While they had been talking, it had moved surprisingly far across the sky. It's passed noon now. We're still in the hottest part of the day, but maybe we could get started walking? I don't like sitting still when it's so beautiful out, she said, looking back at the Fanghur. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Yet she didn't truly understand what they were. Maybe she would indeed have to experience it to know it. Nesa nodded with Valora, eager to begin again, and began to walk alongside her.

To be honest Nesa, I'm not very good at telling jokes, she admitted, looking sideways at the Fanghur walking alongside her. Maybe while we're traveling we will find someone more adept at it than myself, she added, not wanting her friend to give up on the idea of ever laughing. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

The Spine mountain range is to the northwest, directly north of us is the Great Plain at the heart of the Empire, the forests of Du Weldenvarden to the north east, and increasingly dry and hot lands the further south you go until you reach Surda. To the east is the Hadarac Desert. Beyond the desert, the only thing I know about are your Beor Mountains and the edge of Du Weldenvarden, Lora replied promptly, providing pictures as she listed each place. I don't know about two-leg cities, I've never been in one. It is dangerous these days for dragons to be around their dwellings, especially when there are large numbers of them. Though from what I've seen of some of them from the outside though, I'd say that's a fair guess. Dragons aren't much for architecture, but some of the oldest cities in the Empire are beautiful to behold, she continued, smiling to herself. She was finding that she quite liked her job as tour guide. It was much less violent and hassle-free than her previous quests. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

No, they're much smaller than the Beors. Would you like to visit them? she asked, although she'd already placed her bets on the answer.

And also we can use the cover of the mountains to avoid running into too many humans on the way to this. . . Du Weldenvarden. That is, I assume the mountains are uninhabited? Nesa asked, already tilting her wings to the north-west. Hmm. . . I wonder if we'll encounter any other dragons on the way? Nesa wondered privately, eager to see what other colors and personalities she may find in them. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

They won't hurt us unless they think we're about to attack their villages, but since I don't know where those are, there's the risk of us running right into one, Valora said, looping over her friend. Then there's the possibility of dragons hiding inside some of the caves. We dragons can be very protective of our territory. I have no objections to taking you there though, if you want to see them. We'll just have to keep an eye out, especially when we're on the ground, she concluded. In the back of her mind it occurred to her that she may have put the Fanghur off the mountains entirely, but despite her chagrin, the words were already out there and she couldn't take them back. Then again, she's made of some stern stuff, maybe what I said won't frighten her off, she thought to herself, eyeing her friend. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She wondered on what these "Urgals" were, but she didn't press for more information. If she ever encountered them, she'll find out. Then, out of the corner of her eye, she spotted something in the distance; a flat grey mass coating a large expanse of the green land it sat on, which was surrounded by networks of straight grey roads, winding dirt trails, and square patches of different earthen tones that she remembered were called farms as they grew closer. The unnatural feature in the landscape drew her eye, and it reminded her of certain parts of the dwarven cities, only flatter, however she still felt a slight twinge of fear after hearing from her companion to avoid human settlements. Valora, is Surda inhabited too? Nesa asked warily, keeping her gaze on what she assumed to be a human city in the distance. OOC: If you want to know, the city that they're passing is Aberon. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Here I was afraid I'd scared you off the mountains, she called, laughing. She easily caught up to the mottled-skin Fanghur and slowed slightly when her friend did. Yes it is, she said, looking in the direction Nesa was. Actually, I think that's Aberon. We should pick up some altitude and get away from here. These people live in constant fear of Galbatorix and his minions. It wouldn't do for me to get too close. With my resemblance to Murtagh's dragon, they might try to shoot me down with one of their ballistae, she said, flapping powerfully. She flipped in the air until her body was vertical to the ground and beat at the air, climbing swiftly. Once she passed through a layer of clouds, she righted herself and poured on more speed. Yes I know, we are far beyond the reach of their weapons. Except for one. The most annoying creature you will ever encounter is a two-leg magician. They can make normal things behave in the most un-normal ways. Such as an arrow shot from a ballista traveling much farther than it normally would, she called back to her friend, sending images of humans and elves manipulating all manner of things with a few words. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Even if her heart yearned to see the structures up close, she agreed and turned away, letting the silhouette of Aberon fade to the distance. However, one thing in Valora's warning set Nesa on edge. "Magicians?" Nesa quoted as she saw many of the images of the two-legs manipulating objects around them with only words, How can they do these things? Nesa knew that she was beginning to realize that this world was increasingly different than the primal life of the Beors the more she knew, but humans able to break the laws of the world was both unexpected and was almost impossible to comprehend. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Basically these words are the true names for everything, even you have one. Using this energy and the true names, these people can do almost anything, as long as their body is strong enough to withstand it, Valora replied, a little hesitantly. She wasn't really sure how the two-legged magic was supposed to work. Usually when a dragon wanted something magical to happen, they just willed it to be so, without bothering with words. She was pretty sure that was how one of her human friends had described it to her though. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

Indeed, this was something she would have to watch for in the near future, as she doubted she would be powerless against such things. Yet still, when used for good, she imagined that the many enchantments could be a wonder to behold. Maybe there are ways to heal and defend as well as attack. . . What if her abilities were magic all along? The sea of questions drowned out her thoughts and her awareness of the world around her for several moments. And when she finally came to, she was staring at the ground and had lost a considerable amount of altitude. She attempted to regain what she could when she finally hit a thermal, as she turned her head back a single glance, thankful that they were now finally out of sight of the human city. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Lora brushed against her mind and felt a veritable flood of thoughts pulsing through her mind, but she didn't try to decipher them and instead pulled away to let her think. After a minute the ruby dragoness realized she couldn't hear her friends wingbeats anymore and looked behind her. It took her a moment to locate the multi-colored Fanghur since she wasn't at the altitude Lora had expected her to be at. She was just about to shout a warning to her friend when she seemed to snap out of it and soared upward on a thermal. Those must be some seriously heavy thoughts you're having, to weigh your wings down like that, she joked, flipping and twisting through the air to come alongside Nesa. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

She acknowledged Valora's tease, but did not address it as such, What you told me has changed my perspective of the world drastically. . . I. . . never thought that all along this world contained such power. The power of nature was my only superior, but now when you tell me the power of magic dominates this world, I wonder about things that I've seen before; wonders that defy nature's rule and question if they were rather from this mysterious force. . . If I myself use this power. Nesa looked off into the distance thoughtfully, her mind threatening to be overwhelmed again by even more curiosities that she just couldn't hold back. Now I question everything I once knew. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

I suppose in some instances there are those that use those powers for their own gain, and not the good of others. Galbatorix being a prime example. As for dominating, I'm not so sure of that, considering most magicians aren't that powerful, she replied, flapping quickly, then stilling her wings to glide along a path of air. Magic isn't so common as you seem to think Nesa, believe me. Only a small number of dwarves can use magic, and those would have been the only magicians near you, if any, she added after a moment. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.

So Galbatorix is a magician? Is that how he was able to achieve such domination over the dragons and their Riders? She couldn't help but think back to when she was being chased out of her original nesting area above Tarnag, and watching a fellow Fang fall out of the sky as if it had merely given up on it's life; falling to the earth without even a dying cry. Nesa's father only scolded her when asked about the strange incident, and so she seldom thought about it again. She sent Valora this memory, to see if that was caused by a dwarven magician. _________________ o)===={(::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::> Brisineo and Vedrian Calem Medalanim Nesa Tyran Vaerin <::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::)}====<> --WARNING-- If you or someone you know experiences 5 or more of these symptoms: -Smug, relaxed, or gentle grin plastered on face-Random giddiness-Irrational desire to talk about ponies/ show off ponies-Daydreaming-Urge to listen to, whistle, hum, or even sing MLP songs or Brony songs-Urge to sporadically do something good-Draw Ponies-Watch episodes of MLP-Urge to write/read Fanfiction-Irrational joy-Urge to sing MLP songs at the top of your lungs, despite others around-Listen to MLP songs full volume on the biggest speakers you can find-Pinkie Pie like giddiness and energy-Loss of the ability to feel shame and disappointment-Elated euphoria every time you say something pony related-Carefree thoughts-increased energy in movements and walking They might like the show My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic.

Although I've heard he's also an expert at gaining dominion over the minds of others, which would have helped, since at the time he was not the most powerful magician around. And he's still not, his strength is nothing compared to what the might of the elves can accomplish when they work together, Valora replied. She viewed the memory Nesa showed her a few times, then reached back out to the Fanghur's mind. Maybe, but I can't be sure. Was the Fang old? Maybe the strain of fleeing stopped their heart, although they wouldn't necessarily have to be old for that to happen she said. _________________ You are most like SAPHIRA Like the majestic dragon, Saphira, you are brave and ferocious in battle but also deep in ancient wisdom.
