Welcome to Gaia! ::

"A kind offer but no. My journey and dealings and dealings in my Kingdom must be handled by me alone. It's the only way to prove I'm the right full ruler." She answered. Her tone was soft but sad.

"Excuse me?" He said in an insulted manner. "I may crave human meat at times but I don't hunger for it enough to make me go through anything to get it." He said.

After all of that...Cobra then kind of just stood there as a strange figure appeared behind Rune. I guess in light of the recent events, it wouldn't be too strange to have more elemental users showing up out of the wood works, but to see a half-man/half-wolf,white tiger thing appear...well, that was kinda of strange. Then shortly following this...a rain of blue water flowers. This was starting to get up there in the weird days category, when he would by chance help someone out, who happened to be an elemental users, who seemed to live in a house with what would seem to be a whole community of them.

...then on top of that, multiple references were made to Alure as a Queen, Alure herself even making claims to the throne and to an inevitable battle she would have to fight in to get there. this place was becoming stranger by the minute, but then again, struggles such as this were not uncommon between elemental users. Often times those with powers beyond normal humans use them for their own benefit, or for gaining power. he had turned from that life, but he had participated in such deeds enough in his own time to know their enticing rewards. He suddenly began to wonder what Alure's motives for such things were.

Cobra simply stayed quiet though, watching the man interact with Alure and Rune and waiting politely for someone to introduce him. it would be rude after all to interrupt their conversations and cut them all short.

Rune blushed furiously when she heard Cobra speak in the language she hadn't heard for ages and with the other man staring at her form amaze she couldn't help but be embarrassed. Traveling by yourself for so long, not to mention hardly making contact with anyone and then all of a sudden she comes to this place where another earth elemental can speak her language, literally, but called her beautiful. She waved her hands in front of her extremely embarrassed.

"Co...Cobra you don't have to bow! really!! I...that is um...you see this is the reason I can control the growth of the seeds backwards and forwards my family, that is to say my colony of faeries would help the forest trees and the flowers grow." Rune explained still floating in front of Cobra, " by getting rid of the weeds and gathering the seeds of the dead flowers to be replanted and well I've been traveling by myself for a while I guess I managed to use that skill for normal flowers too..." she said the last part to herself. "but please we can teach each other about the forests and would still like it if we could still have that walk." Rune said before she landed in front of Cobra and changed back into her human form.

"Since Allure is telling you about her past, its only fair I tell you mine...the colony of faeries I mentioned earlier, I'm the last of them I was in the forest one day gathering seeds and berries when I saw the sky turn an angry red I flew back to the meadows where they all lived but it was all gone, there was smoke so thick I could hardly breath, but the meadow and everyone inside was either dead or probably captured." Rune finished.

"exactically but your brother on the other hand."

Rune frowned as she tried to think of what Nushi was talking about but so far nothing familiar was coming to mind. "I apologize Nushi but I don't know what that means exactly." Rune apologized.

...shocked somewhat by suddenly hearing another voice speak the druidic language he and Rune shared, Cobra's head turned to listen to Nushi. the question he put forth was somewhat strange, but seeing as there must have been a reason why he asked it, cobra would attempt to answer.

"Well, Nushi means many things...some of which should not be spoken in front of ladies, but to the degree that you are discussing it, with your long lifetime, clanhood, and to be a guardian as well, I would guess that you are of divine lineage. If your form was not enough to make one guess, I suppose your clan name would be the final clinch. You are then, a White Tiger Water God of some sort? ...the shear spectrum of people that live in this house is becoming overwhelming. I had thought that I was special, but I'm seeming more and more pedestrian by the second around here..."
