Fiera Drachegott
Fiera lightly laughed at the poetic comment.
"Dragons are more than beasts of war, human. Something that seems to escape several of your kind." Her voice was soft, but hidden in it was partial contempt for the humans. Contempt that came from several sources, one from the king and god within Fiera who sought dominion over the species, and another from the mother within Fiera who has been growing within Fiera since she met Renske. She listened as Ren described the weapon and its origins. Most of it she had gathered from seeing the weapon drawn and used. It was a fine weapon indeed, as Fiera said, but a weapon for humans.
"Constructed by the best blacksmiths. A weapon, however, is limited by that being. A human can make a weapon only to the limits of their past and experiences. A human who has seen dragons and demons is limited to those beings." She stopped for a moment in explaining her thoughts, looking over as a dragon approached, but then continued.
"A hunter makes tools with experience to the game he has hunted. Same with a blacksmith, with the tools of this earth can only make tools to the things he perceives and understands. When I say this weapon was meant for humans, because it was made by a being who has perceived and experienced what humans have seen in this world. That is what I see in the weapon, and why it is for human hands."
"A weapon also goes beyond a title. To say your tool is fitting a knight and not yourself insults the weapons and knights. A weapon doesn't befit one group, it is a tool for its wielder and the only ones who aren't fitting are the ones physically incapable of wielding it. This weapon was crafted with care and precision. It isn't some brute, some gargantuan beast constructed to maim and murder, but made to protect. You fight because you have to, to protect those around you. A rapier is made to parry, defend, keep the wielder safe with its light weight. When it kills, it doesn't rip the flesh like an axe or crush it like a hammer. It pierces it with the smallest available opening, designed to end or incapacitate its opposition swiftly." She grabbed the weapon as Ren gave it back to her.
"This weapon fits you more than you may believe." The dragon landed before Fiera, bowing its head low in her presence. The beasts eyes were nearly as tall as Fiera herself, but it still showed her utmost respect. Its breath would be almost scalding for Ren as it spoke.
"God Fiera, refugees from Melchior have arrived seeking shelter." Its voice was deep and monstrous, but at the same time submissive.
"Melchior... The same country we've been suspected of spying on us." Fiera looked down for a moment to think before speaking again.
"Ira, where are they now?"
The large dragon stood up from its bow and looked back at where the main gates to their castle was.
"They are closely watched just outside the main gates."
"I will see to them." The response caused Ira to look back at Fiera, but he made no response.
"Go back to your duties, Ira." The tremendous wings of Ira spread out, raising above him before he stopped and looked down, not at Fiera, but Ren.
"He is not a kid." Fiera said like she was reading the dragon's thoughts.
"He won't fly off from your wings." Its caution sated, the dragon flew up high into the sky, causing a gust of air to appear. Fiera began walking towards the entrance, still holding Ren's weapon in her hand.
The gates before Seiji and Vyre began opening, the groans of obsidian grinding against obsidian was akin to great pieces of metal shifting. Behind the gates was Fiera, who walked out while they were partially open. She eyed Seiji, Vyre, and their storage. The air for the dragon god was saturated with an artificial sent of chemicals, some well known and others completely alien to her.
"Who are you two, to come to the Obelisk of Dragons?" She simply asked. The question was basic, but her eyes were trained on Seiji like a wolf, and though they didn't show desire for harm, her gaze seemed like a weapon itself.
