OOC: Alright for now, this is only for Saph, DS4, Darkie and I. ^_^

Caete was walking along the North Edge of Isenstar Lake, approximately straight across from Gil'ead, headed closer towards Ellesmera. Blanc padded along next to him, at a quick trot as his bond walked briskly forward. Caete, shall we stop for a break? I know you said we were to meet back up with Niriz, Liam and the others past Marna by the forest, but you've kept this pace for days, and I can feel your fatique. He nudged his bonds hand and pulled his side with his maws, tugging the Nephilim down.
"Blanc, I'll rest, but we have to set out immediately after dawn." He shuffled down, pulling out small rations that he had found. Berries, leftover- partially stale bread, and a flask of faelnirv. He sat and offered small bits of bread to his bond and tossed crumbs to the fish in the lake.

Jo was floating down the edge of Du Weldenvarden close to what appeared to be the second small out crop of mountains past Kirtan. She floated along, using her wings to navigate through the dust that blew in from the Hadarac. She stopped after finding a small fatch of forest to rest in, protected from the dust storms, but not from view. Her little bird friend, Sundrop flew down and landed on her shoulder, twittering. Dust... Jo smiled, lifting her hand to scratch the birds head. "Yes, there is dust, Sun, keep an eye out for others though." She smiled and rested her eyes, closing them and folding in on herself.
OOC: Niriz will be with Liam for now.

OOC:
^.^

IC:
Jeria laid sprawled over Cveti's back, her hands buried into his obsidian black feathers. He flew leisurely back to Du Weldenvarden from the Hadarac Desert. They'd both found the heat not to their liking. She felt her stomach rumble commandingly for food, and weakly pulled on some of Cveti's feathers.
Land, Cveti. My belly demands nourishment. She said tiredly, though she didn't have the strength to even lift her head from where she had it pushed into his plumage. She felt him dive beneath her, and the slight jolt from landing. She slid from his back and hit the ground with a thud. The shock was too much for her weak legs, and she went to her hands and knees. She panted for breath, her hands curling into fists in the grass. She tried to stand by getting her feet under her, but that proved useless. She beat her wings weakly, battering at the air in a desperate attempt to stand. This also proved useless. She just didn't have the strength. She swayed and almost fell forward, but instead of landing on the ground she found her upper body cushioned with soft feathers. Cveti had caught her in the curve of his wing. She closed her eyes.
I can't, Cveti. I just can't. She whispered. She felt him nuzzle her face with his beak.
Yes you can. I forbid you to give up. He said softly. She cracked her eyes open at him. And then she heard voices...
Cveti, would you....? She asked. He nodded and laid her down. Then she was alone. She closed her eyes and tried to ignore the pain coming from her ribs and stomach. The bruises from the chain were still visible.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti hopped through the trees, following the sound of voices. He found a huge white cat, as well as...His eyes widened, and he gasped. A Nephilim! He hopped forward eagerly, ruffling his obsidian black plumage. He paused a bit away and tilted his head to the side.
Could you spare some food? My bond is exhausted and can barely move for lack of strength and nourishment. Please, I fear she may die. He pleaded desperately, his eyes wide with panic.

OOC: ^___^

Caete jumped up at the voice from the large bird and saw the Nephilim he carried. He was surprised at their appearance, yet still ran forward to catch her. "Of course. I'll do as much as I can." He carried her over to his small place and set her comfortably against Blanc's side, so he may act as a back for her. "Here take some of this, it will help you." he gently laid the flask of faelnirv against her lips and tilted it, making sure she would drink. He tipped her face forward with his hands just slightly, allowing her to take in a few gulps before gently pulling it away. "I have some berries, some bread, and I'm sure that I could find something edible from the forest if you needed it." He gently placed the berries in her hand and laid the bread by her hip so that she could reach it. "May I ask, what are you're names?"

Caete felt like the woman was familiar, but he couldn't quite be sure of who she was. Her face was scarred, but still she was beautiful. He couldn't help but think that he'd seen her before, and also the huge eagle that had brought her.

Jeria felt herself being caught and laid against something soft. Fur perhaps? She gasped as a sort of liquid was gently poured into her mouth. She swallowed and felt energy pulsing through her. She opened her bright amethyst eyes and gazed around. She felt something in her hand and lifted it to find berries. She weakly put them to her lips and swallowed a few while watching the man. Her eyes widened. Could it be? Could it be the man in her mind, standing before her, as real as Cveti or herself was? She opened her mouth to try and speak, but no sounds would come out.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti sighed in relief, watching anxiously as the man began to care for his bond.
I am Cveti. My bonds name is Jeria.

- - - - - - - - - -

Jeria opened her mouth again to speak, and this time succeeded.
"I...know you..." She managed to whisper hoarsely. She tried to move, to touch his shoulder and make sure he was flesh and blood, but a sharp pain across her ribs made her cringe and gasp for breath. The bruises over her upper torso and ribcage were aching now. She closed her eyes and folded her arms over her ribs, grimacing.

Jeria watched the man warily, though somehow she knew he wouldn't hurt her even before he said so. Maybe it was the image of him in her head, or maybe the way his eyes widened and he gasped when he saw her old wounds. She released a breath of relief as he healed her partially, though her ribs still ached and the long scars across the backs of her wings and in between her shoulder blades hurt. She gratefully swallowed more of the drink he offered her, feeling an unfamiliar strength course through her body. She closed and opened her eyes as he wet a strip of his shirt and began to clean the feathers on her wings. She shifted, curling the wing he was cleaning a bit so he could reach it better. In doing so, however, the part of her wing that attached to her back pulled on the numerous scars, making her inhale sharply and to arch her spine. She bit her lip to refrain from crying out in pain as the stripes zinged angrily at the movement. To distract herself she met his dark green gaze with her amethyst one.
"I remember you. But nothing else. Only you and Cveti." She said softly.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti nodded. He ruffled his obsidian black plumage, watching Jeria anxiously. She seemed to be in good hands. He turned his head toward the man...he could almost remember his name.
Yes, that is us. Jeria was captured nearly ten years ago and brought to Gil'ead. I stayed with her, though sometimes I wonder if she even knew I was there. They were...brutal...in their treatment of her, as you can see in the bruises, scars, and extreme malnourishment. I honestly think it a miracle she's lasted this long. He said quietly. He crooned anxiously when he saw her arch her spine, hopping closer.

Jeria tilted her head, confused. She listened to him speak, watching him. She could hardly believe that he was real. She smiled hesitantly in return, thinking over his name in her mind. Caete...It sounded right, like she'd known it all along. She frowned then.
"Again?" She said softly, confusion in her eyes. Then it cleared, and her amethyst irises gleamed with tears, both from anger and sadness.
"I..I don't remember anything, Caete. Nothing from my past. All I know is my name, Cveti....And an image of you, evidently when you were younger." She admitted. A tear escaped her eye and ran down her cheek.
"And no. The scars are a reminder of what they did to me." She said, closing her eyes.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti crooned and ducked his head to Jeria, brushing the curve of his beak tenderly over her cheek. She raised a hand and stroked the side of his face with her fingers. The obsidian black eagle looked at Caete with one eye while he comforted his bond.
After a few years of the beatings and torture, her memories began to fade. She only remembered me, I think, because I never left, except to eat. He murmured to the male Nephilim privately.

Jeria bit her lip and nodded, smiling slightly in return. She considered his question, testing her muscles carefully. Whatever drink Caete had given her, it worked. She felt stronger than she had in days. Her back still hurt, but it was manageable. She took his hand and grasped it. She glanced back at Blanc gratefully for his push, then attempted to beat her wings to help herself up. She managed to get to her feet after a few moments of struggling - even with the vitalizing drink he'd given her, her body was still very thin and weak - and had one arm over Cveti's neck. The female Nephilim smiled at the success.
"I think I can. My wings are useless for travel, though. I haven't been able to use them properly for...a long time." She said. She looked to the side at one of her wings, then back at Caete.
"What am I? I know I'm not human." She asked, and flapped her wings slightly.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti released a breath inaudibly.
I know. She just becomes so distressed over being unable to remember anything. He said, ducking his head as he spoke to Caete so Jeria could put an arm over his neck for balance. The obsidian black eagle smiled at Blanc, crooning.
It is wonderful to see you as well, Blanc my friend. He said warmly, his eyes glittering.

Jeria nodded and let him boost her up onto Blanc's back. She laid down as he told her to and wrapped her arms around the white cat's neck so she wouldn't slip. She draped her wings loosely on either side of her to let them relax. She smiled at Blanc as he licked her face. She reached a hand up and scratched gently at the corner of his jaw, listening to Caete as he spoke. Nephilim, half-human half-angel...Again, she felt like she'd known this all along. Her head jerked up at the sound of wingbeats. What she saw made her tremble on Blanc's back; a large red dragon. Her hands clenched into the white cat's fur as she tried to hold back the urge to run and hide. It wasn't anything really to do with that fact that he was a dragon, it was that he was so big. She swallowed dryly.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti nodded in agreement.
Indeed it has, and I as well. He said, then turned to see the dragon. His eyes narrowed and he stood up taller, glancing at his bond briefly. He could feel her fear and wariness, though he barely could discern her urge to run. He crooned, a simply, soft vibration in his throat, and felt Jeria relax slightly.

Caete nodded, grinning, "Of course you can come with us. The elves would be pleased if I brought a dragon to visit!" He chuckled and made sure that Jeria was on Blanc correctly. He moved her leg with his hand just a bit to help her grasp his flank and moved to walk next to them. "We're headed to that clump of trees over there," He pointed to the small out crop, "Theres a small lake where we can rest and meet up with my companions." Caete moved forward, motioning with his hand to move them all onward.

Niriz smiled at Liams whistle and glanced back, "It doesn't look to be too much farther," She floated up a little higher to see, "I do believe Caete has found a few new friends." She floated back down, next to Liam, "We should arrive at the same time as him if we keep our pace." Niriz smiled up at her little bond, giggling at her excitement, "Slyth is enjoying this so much, Liam." She smiled and brushed her hair back with her hand.

Okay! Slyth flew upward and went into a dive, trying to turn in the middle and successfully making a three-quarter turn before wobbling off into the air. She drew her wings back up, shakily making her way up to her siblings, I not very good yet. She pouted, flying dejectedly behind them.

Jo perked up when she heard someone speak to her, "Hmm?" She glanced at the man, "Oh, well the closest is probably Gil'ead," She looked him up and down, "Though I wouldn't recommend that you go there. The king has this thing against people who are different." She smiled and stood, letting her wings unfold from behind the tree, "I'm Jo, do you need help?" She held out her hand and gave him a huge grin.

OOC: Darkie, I hope you meant that Alex was talking to Jo lol cause thats what it seemed like.

Jeria's wings trembled as the dragon spoke to her, but she nodded.
"I know." She murmured, just loud enough for the dragon to hear. She calmed a bit at Caete's touch as he shifted her leg to better grasp Blanc's flank. She closed her eyes and laid her head down on the white cat's thick scruff, relaxing. She was finally safe.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti made sure his bond was in good hands, then lifted his wings and took off into the air. He made a circling range around Caete and Blanc. As he went around, he saw a flash of something. He banked in that direction and flew over, to find a female Nephilim, three tiny dragon like creatures, an elf, and a stallion. He remembered the Nephilim. He called a greeting as he folded his wings and landed in front of them.
Well hello there, Niriz. Good to see you. I suppose you are the friends that Caete is going to meet? He asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

Jeria smiled at Caete. Cveti was fast in the air, and she was used to that. She looked at the dragon, Tvashtar.
I was...Tortured for a long time in the dungeons of Gil'ead. I'm wary of everything. It is not your breed that I fear, only your...size. Anything bigger than my companion Cveti, to be honest, makes me tremble. She replied, then buried her face into Blanc's fur and held on.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti chuckled at the man and dipped his head as the stallion went around him. He turned to Niriz and looked down at her, his eyes warming at seeing yet another familiar face. He obliged her and lowered his head, humming as she scratched at his beak.
Yes, about that...Jeria was captured by Imperial soldiers and taken to Gil'ead. That's why we went missing. She's been very badly treated. I will not repeat some of the things I've seen them do to her. She remembers little, only me, her own name, and an image of Caete when he was younger. I doubt she will remember you either. Be patient with her and her memories should return. He said. He smiled and glanced up at the small dragon-like creature. She was very pretty, and fit Niriz's personality.
She fits you. he said. He crouched down to the ground, tucking his feet underneath his belly.
Would you like to join the race? he asked mischievously, dipping his shoulder so she might mount his back if she wished.

Caete yelled back through his mind, You fool, no horse can outrun a Nephilim! Especially not me! He chuckled and dove, drawing his wings inward at an angle so that he was falling forward, yet gliding onward. He was speeding so fast he could feel his hair snapping in the wind as he approached the clearing incredibly fast. He knew that at this rate he would have to slow down by floating past the rendevous, but at least the race would be incredibly close.

Caete let a cry fly out of his lungs as drew closer to Liam and Ranor. He glanced down and saw two people standing, one looked as if they had wings, the other looked human. He decided to speak after he'd stopped.

Jo smiled at the little flying thing that looked like a dragon, "Hello there little cutie. I'm Jo." She chuckled lightly as another one fluttered down next to them, twittering at them. "Hello, aren't you just a cute little darling." She giggled and looked at Alex, motioning, "It seems that we've already made some friends." She smiled and gently touched his shoulder, "Maybe we'll get to go into the Great Forest after all." Jo looked back towards the rider, but caught a glimpse of something in the sky, several somethings really. A large red dragon followed after what looked to be a winged man, she gasped, never having seen another winged person before, she was intrigued, "My! Alex, look! Another winged being!" She glanced at him, "You know, I've never seen another one before..." She trailed off watching the man fly.

Slyth hadn't really been paying attention and fluttered right down after her big brother, puttering into his behind because of a lack of attention, Oof, sowwy bubba. She fluttered over and peeked around his shoulder, glancing at the two people. One looked like her Niriz, but with different hair and a different face. She twittered around her brother, intending to sniff the winged one called Jo.

Niriz smiled, "I'd love to." She gently climbed onto Cveti's back, letting her hands to rub his feathers. "Of course I'll be patient for Jeria, she was a friend. I'll do whatever it takes to help her." She smiled and laughed giddily before they took off.

Blanc rumbled gently before he took off, gently setting his paws apart. He was glad Caete had made sure she was on tightly and correctly, else he'd have to run back and catch her before she'd hit the ground. He took off, hitting his half speed after around two seconds, already on par with Caete, he flew past, yet upon seeing the dragonettes and two other beings he took a looping turn to slow down and speak to them. Slyth, Fin, Vix, shall you introduce us? This is Jeria, she's a friend. He purred and gently shook his back in an affectionate way towards Jeria.

Jeria made sure she had a firm grip of Blanc's fur barely a second before he took off. She felt her waist length hair whipping around in the wind behind her, and dared to lift her head to peek at her surroundings. Her vision blurred, though it abated when Blanc slowed his pace and circled round to stop at the man and the girl with...wings? They were feathered...Was she also a Nephilim? She raised her head slightly higher when Blanc mentioned her name. She pushed a bit at his shoulders so she was partially sitting up supported by her forearms on his back.
"Hello." She murmured shyly, smiling tentatively. She smiled in a more relaxed way as she saw the three little dragon-like creatures.
Why hello there, my sweetlings. She said to them warmly, her amethyst eyes glittering.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti grinned and straightened
I know you will be. Hold on. He warned before lifting his wings and, almost literally, blasting into the air. He surged after Caete, Tvashtar, and Liam, his wings beating furiously and nearly invisible with the speed of their flapping. He passed the red male dragon in a few moments. He screeched with his joy at feeling the wind through his feathers, going higher in the air. He pulled in his wings and dove horizontally to the ground, picking up amazing velocity in a few seconds. He flashed past Caete with little effort and was quickly catching up with Liam.
You might want to give that stallion more of his head if you intend to beat me! he called ahead to the elf.

Jeria's smile faded as Fin rebuffed her endearment of him and his siblings, and she recoiled instinctively at the disgust in his tone.
I'm sorry... She whispered, and looked down at Blanc's fur. She glanced up sharply when the other dragonette, Slyth, landed in front of her. She smiled tentatively again, and reached up a hand to gently scratch the blue-green on the back of her head.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti grinned back at Niriz.
Yes indeed. He said, and laughed. He felt carefree, something he hadn't felt in a very long time. He backwinged heavily to slow his pace, and soon he hovered beside Caete. He grinned at the male Nephilim and chuckled.
Perhaps it was a tie. he relented, his eyes gleaming.

OOC:
Anyone mind if I bring in Sarai?

Caete chuckled, "You cheater, Valora. That's not nice." He smiled, "Of course, I would have beat you both, had either of you not cheated." He chuckled and turned, watching their friends make their way toward them. "Cveti, did you enjoy yourself? I'm sure Jeria had fun on Blanc," He laughed heartily, "We all know he's the fastest animal in Alagaesia!" He smiled and reached his hand out to help Niriz down, then gently scratched the side of the large eagle.

Jo smiled, "Of course," She grabbed Alex's arm, fully intending on dragging him with her, "Come on Alex! We mustn't dally!" She giggled and took off after the little gold dragonette. She watched the large white cat that carried the nephilim laying on it, "So, what exactly are you?" She gently ran her hand out to his neck, allowing her fingers to brush through his incredibly soft fur. She felt his mind touch her own, No one, save myself, knows. He chuckled deep in his throat, as best a cat could, and padded forward, closer to the dragonettes.

Niriz smiled, "That was a great deal of fun. Though I would like to know why it is that everytime you two are within a mile of each other you find the need to either attack each other, or race." She smiled and playfully nudged Liam's shoulder.

Slyth gleefully crooned and leant down to lick the side of Jeria's face, I like ju. She puffed a small bit of smoke out as she pushed her way under Jeria's chin, fully intending to sleep there, since it was warm.

OOC:
Sweet, I think I might even bring in Jia, Sarai's mother.

IC:

Jeria looked up at the black dragonette, her eyes softening.
I know, I suppose. I'm just so used to taunting and disgusted voices... She murmured. She couldn't help the smile that broke across her face when the golden dragonette slapped Fin on the side of the head. She glanced down once more when the blue-green, Slyth, snuggled under her chin, apparently deciding that she was going to sleep there. The female Nephilim smiled and stroked Slyth's side with the tip of one finger.

- - - - - - - - - -

Cveti made a purring sound as he landed and Caete came over to help Niriz down. He tilted his head into the male Nephilim's caress, though his gaze watched for his bond carefully. He could feel her slight stress, though it was not enough to make him worry, he always worried for her when she was out of his sight, especially now while she was so unstable and weak.

- - - - - - - - - -

Sarai smiled from her hidden perch in the trees. Once the red female, Valora, showed herself, the black-lined-with-gold-scaled dragoness crouched and sprang down, landing squarely on Valora's back. I'm sorry to say, dear Valora, that you are the one in second place. I got here almost a week ago, with my mother's help. she chirped happily, jumping from Valora's back to the ground. She brushed her muzzle against one of Caete and Niriz's wings, her purr a deep and soothingly roll. It's good to see you all. she said with a smile. A crackling of twigs behind her, accompanied by heavy footsteps, made her look up.

- - - - - - - - - -

Jia cursed as she struggled her way through a dense patch of trees. She contemplated Changing to a different form, but decided against it. Her head finally came into view of the others, then, gradually, the rest of her body as she extricated herself from the tangle of vines, leaves, and trees. Once free she shook herself, and looked up. Her eyes widened. Caete! she exclaimed, her expression pleased. Sarai told me we were meeting some people, but she didn't say any names. May I say that it is very good to see you. she said, padding forward. She scowled at her daughter. The next time I ask who your taking me to meet would you please tell me? she said, exasperated. Sarai rolled her eyes. Yes, Mother. Jia snorted, her pupils narrowing.

Jeria smiled faintly at Fin and stroked his head in return with one finger.
I can understand that. Cveti is the same, sometimes. She murmured. Her smile widened a bit at Slyth. She glanced from Fin to Slyth, her amethyst eyes softened with tenderness.
Your little sister is very sweet. She said to the black dragonette. She flinched at the cry of pain and looked up toward Liam, worry in her eyes. But he seemed fine, although a bit brown in the face. She grinned, her amethyst irises glittering.

- - - - - - - - - -

Sarai prummed, grinning at Valora. Yes, I'm guilty, I admit it. she said, and chuckled. She purred with amusement at Liam, unable to withhold another chuckle. A pleasure, sweet Vix. she murmured to the gold dragonette, dipping her head with a smile. Sarai's purr deepened as Niriz stepped forward and scratched gently at her muzzle. Her pale-lavender-flecked-with-light-grey irises glittered. Don't worry, I'll warn you if he's coming this way, or just block him. she said with a conspiring grin at the female Nephilim. She glanced around at Blanc, tilting her head at the other female Nephilim on his back. She glanced at Caete and grinned at him. Sure, sure, if you say so. I can only hide so well because of my powers. she laughed. It gives me an insight of where I can go to stay hidden away.

- - - - - - - - - -

Jia prummed as her daughter did, dipping her head in greeting to all that introduced themselves to her. A great pleasure. I hope my daughter wasn't such a pain to be with? she asked with a raised eyebrow, though the twinkle in her teal-aquamarine eyes showed that she was only teasing. She did a double-take when she saw Alex. She'd met him when she was a mere hatchling. Alex, how great to see you! You seem well since I saw you so long ago. she said warmly. She smiled at Jo, her eyes lighting up as she saw the woman's wings. Another Nephilim, perhaps? She purred at Caete as her friend came to her and scratched the scales on her neck. She rumbled affectionately at her daughter. Yes, Sarai insisted on dragging me here, or actually having me show her the way. I'm on my way to the Spine to meet with the others. she said. She laughed as Caete spluttered and said it wasn't his fault. When he danced toward her and hid behind her, she grinned and Changed to her Nephilim form. Her deep golden hair was shoulder length with small amethyst streaks, and her wings almost the same. They started as a pale gold near the base at her back and faded out to a light lavender at the tips. She flapped them and scooted out of the way, leaving Caete vulnerable,"I'm not going to be your shield!" she exclaimed, and laughed. She glanced down briefly to make sure she was clothed, and sighed when she saw a yellow-gold tunic tied at the waist with light blue knee length trousers.

Jeria looked up when someone spoke her name. It was another female Nephilim. She smiled hesitantly at her, uneasy and embarrassed that she couldn't remember her.
"It seems I have." She said quietly.

- - - - - - - - - -

Sarai laughed outright at how everyone reacted to her mother's transformation from dragon to Nephilim. It's a type of magic that her Rider controls called Seals. I have one, too, see? she said, and touched her Changing Seal. She instantly Changed to a young human girl in her late teens. Her hair, a deep luscious black with streaks of gold, just like her scales, curled down in soft ringlets to her chest. She was of course covered in a deep midnight blue dress that appeared to glitter like satin. She grinned at Liam,"I just never showed you before." she said, then hiked up her skirt and ran ahead into the trees,"Young lady you get back here and walk with the rest of us!" she heard her mother shout. She scowled, slowed, and waited for the others to catch up with her.

- - - - - - - - - -

Once her daughter was once again among them, Jia turned to look at Alex,"And from me as well. It has been a long time." she said, and smiled. She laughed at Caete,"I've gotten your back several times already, time to get your own." she retorted playfully. She tilted her head at the Nephilim she saw riding on Blanc. That must be Jeria. She smiled kindly at the woman in greeting, her gentle teal-aquamarine eyes gleaming quietly. She lifted a wing and gently brushed it against Liam's head in a similar move to a cuff, then laughed,"That's my daughter your talking to, young man. I have many more tricks up my sleeve than she does anyway." she said with a innocent grin?

Jeria smiled hesitantly at Fin, then glanced at Niriz. Something tickled at the back of her mind. She tilted her head reaching for it, but it slipped out of reach. She frowned slightly and reached again, determined. Her mind kicked, hard, and her eyes flew wide with delight and recognition.
"Niriz, is that you?" She asked. She remembered being close friends with Niriz when they were children. It was a fuzzy memory, and she had a headache now from trying to remember, but she was glad she had.
"So you have finally found a partner. I'm glad." She said with a smile, delight still bright in her amethyst eyes at remembering.

- - - - - - - - - -

Jia smiled at Liam,"He is from a land beyond the Beor's called Dedarath. He is known as a Reaper, but not the Grim Reaper that you twolegs fear so much. Ka and his brother, Rathon, came here with their parents to get away from something in their home. His magic, Seals, is as natural to him as the Ancient Language is to the elves and Dragon Riders." She winked at Alex,"They are. I have some training in them, though unfortunately I'm still a beginner. I get them because of this ability to Change. I can Change to a Reaper, and therefore I have the same abilities as my Rider." she said, and sighed. She turned to look at Caete, her expression becoming more wary as he spoke,"I can help, I think. Void Seals are proficient at controlling souls and spirits. I know a few rudimentary ones that could, in a way, herd them back into the gate." she offered. She touched her Seal and Changed to her Reaper form. Her hair was short on the sides but longer, to her shoulders, in back, and she was a bit shorter, otherwise she looked the same,"This is my Reapric form." she said, and crossed her arms. She pursed her lips as she sneaked a look at Liam. She cupped her hand to hide what she was doing and made a simple Earth Seal. A duplicate of the Seal appeared above Liam's head. It was blue in color, signifying it as a water seal. She activated it, and abruptly water dumped onto Liam's head, soaking his hair and clothes. She laughed,"Noble, dear Liam? You have the wrong dragoness." she said with a grin.
