Lyra listened thinking it over as she remember what normal Immortals had to do but wasn't sure what a second type was. "what are the two types of Immortal? I know there's one type that you need to do sacrifices with to keep." Lyra said watching Sardon thinking over options.

Hitana was silent going to let Sardon explain this to her sister.
PostPosted: Thu Mar 12, 2015 12:57 pm


"Well the first kind where you need to sacrifice a living person to keep the immortality going, Is more common and though the process can be hard to endure at first, It would require an existing Immortal to transfer their immortality to the person. To turn them immortal. Then later they would need a double sacrifice to be able to become immortal again. Sounds easier then it actually is,

The second requires one to be of a very special and rare blood type or the person can die instead of turning immortal. though the ones that live through the becoming immortal ritual for this second and even more rare immortality well... You still need a sacrifice of sorts. Though it leaves the sacrifice or in this case a donor to feed their life essence to you that will regenerate inside them not robbing them of any years. but in order to do it you will need a donor to give you some of their blood for you to drink.

Though a few go way out of their way and take it from living people to the point they kill the person but only one pint of blood every few years or months is required to be drank by the one who is the second type of immortal or they can slip into a death like sleep. And here have been a few accidents where if you try to go without the timely donation before you slip into the death like sleep state which just a little bit of living blood placed in your mouth can wake you, but durring this time you will not age still and look totally dead. Even your heart beat would be so faint people would actually think your really dead.

But before slipping towards that state you could get this overwhelming craving for the donation and could kill to obtain it. ut as long as you drink your donation regularly you can avoid accidents like that. Though this immortality type is not like the first as the first you have no amplified abilities. Where the second type your senses and limitation get stronger. Like having the strength of 10 people, move faster then a cheetah and might be able to see in the dark. Though not anyone can have this second type. The easiest way for either type of immortality is to be born from two immortals making a child. This I hear works best for both kinds, though the first more known and used method those born immortal still need to sacrifice a living mortal every so often. Where the second type of those born just need the timely donation of life essence.

But you need to pass an examination of your blood by the one who knows and lives this second type of immortality better then anyone. To see if your able to live as an immortal of that type. Her becoming this type of immortal was actually a accident. one who had this type of immortality bitten her and she being of the rare accepting blood for this type of immortality. Instead of just dying from being bitten she got up and walked around the one who made her this type of immortal never planned for her to get back up. His plan was to kill her and feed his need of life essence.

He than tried killing her but she was stronger and faster than he was and she ended up killing him in defense. Then she took over his throne as the queen of Avalonia. Which the royal palace rests high in the mountain above Avalonia. The ritual I know requires her to bite you with her fangs. You will likely think your dying but its just the changes you go through that make you feel like it. You just need to hold in your mind the desire to live through it and it helps to focus on someone you care deeply for like your sister to help you be strong through it." Sardon said watching her. "Also the change will make you be able to stand the taste of the blood you have to drink every so often." He added.

It seemed he knew more about it than anyone almost seemed to know a little too much about it, as if he sat and talked with Sinestra himself or he might have gone through it himself or tried to.

Lyra was silent watching and hearing all this. Looking down once he was done she thought not sure. She didn't like the idea of killing people every so often to retain her Immortality if she went with that yet at the same time she didn't know if her sister might fear her if she became a vampire though be less work to retain that Immortality since it would just be a little blood not an entire life.

Hitana watched and sighed. "Pick whichever you want. I'll support you through it if you pick one." Hitana said to Lyra wanting to be supportive.

Lyra thought silently weighing the two. She wasn't sure she could handle taking a life like Hitana did to maintain her Immortal blood if needed but it didn't sound as if she would fear her if she went with the vampire side. ".....how....how could I get to the vampire you spoke of that could change me if I'm able to be made Immortal?" she asked.

This shocked the male earth user when hearing this as he didn't think Lyra would pick that if either. "interesting." he muttered watching them and listening.
PostPosted: Fri Mar 13, 2015 12:59 am


Sardon smirked. "Well you would need to fly there as there is no easy road up from Avalonia to the castle. And likely those of Avalonia would be suspicious of you requesting to see Queen Sinestra. They are very protective of her so unless you can fly up to the castle on a pair of wings it is kinda hard to reach her. But it is interesting that you would pick that. Though I figured you would likely ask more from not needing to take a life." Sardon said smiling then added. "I could fly you there if you like." Sardon added nonchalantly.

The other guy who was so silent and hidden completely in shadow spoke to the other guy likely spooking him from seeming to have taken off as well. "Well is it so surprising she would choose the one that required one to not have to kill someone to keep being immortal? You see she is one who does not like the thought of killing people at all let alone to make herself live longer. She still has to be evaluated and see if her blood is the right type to undergo that change.

There is a possibility she can't become that type of immortal too, Where the kind we are well anyone can do it but not everyone can live with taking another life to remain immortal. Lyra is the later, She would not be able to live long without being tormented for the rest of her life for taking another life to extend her own.

So really it is not surprising she would show interest in the type that another life to keep living is no needed to be lost to gain another say 100 years to live. It is actually more surprising if she took the option that killed another living being to extend her life over the one that did not need to kill someone to live longer." He said knowing he likely scared the other guy and anyone else who noticed him there though totally being unseen and thought he was gone. Though if people was not confused by what he said showed that Lyra going for the vampire option that requires no life to be lost to keep her immortality was the less surprising one. Which would be a valid point.

Lyra listened feeling now as if she had picked the wrong one bitting her lower lip. She thought she had understood him right the first time but now was she mistaken and not understanding what he had said? when the man spoke the one besides him, Lyra, and HItana all jumped looking at him.

"So did I make a good choice or no? I thought Sardon meant the second option would mean I don't need to kill anyone. Am I mistaken?" Lyra asked confused and worried she'd picked wrongly.

"I think you picked right sister." Hitana said watching her sister then narrowed her eyes on Sardon. "You better not be trying to double talk my sister." the fire user warned.
PostPosted: Fri Mar 13, 2015 4:33 am


Sardon laughed lightly. "Okay first of all I never double talk people, I see it as wrong to do, But thorn here the man who was surprised for some reason thought you would not pick either one. Thus your choice, which for how you are against taking another life if you can avoid it. Is the more logical choice you would pick.

Where as Terrance my nephew, seen it was the logical choice of you picking, If you picked the immortality of sacrificing another life to live longer, That is what would have surprised Terrance as to take another life is something you would be tormented about and thus the less likely one you would pick. But by picking the vampire immortality which for you is the one choice you can live with doing what was needed to live longer. Being the more probable choice you would pick if either one of them did not surprize him. This is what he meant.

By saying your choice which was the more logical one you would have chosen if either one was the right one for how you are against killing another person." Sardon said hoping he clarified that better. Then looking at Hitana the fire user. "Besides what would you do if I tried tricking your sister, Bath me in fire planning to burn me alive?" Sardon asked in a humored way but then Sardon stretched as dragon wings folded out of his back as Sardon stretched.

Lyra was quiet looking up and smiled softly. "Thank you sir for your words. Would you be able to escort me?" She asked Terrance smiling softly. Hitana watched eyeing Terrance closely.

"am I allowed to come? I want to make sure no funny busines hapens to my sister while she's with you or Sardon." it showed she was a protective sister.
PostPosted: Fri Mar 13, 2015 7:01 pm


Terrence moved a little into the light just to be so people could see his movements in the shadows. "Unfortunately I can escort you there. As I can not fly from what those beasts did the first time I visited Avalonia on business. For some reason every thing started out fine. But when I sneezed and my wings opened up from under my cloak they all went berserk at the sight of snow white feathered wings attacking me in a pack and damaged them to the point I now longer can take flight.

It seems anything like an angel those beast augmented humans which look more beast like depictions of werewolves in myth and legend a wolf that can take on the form of a man and walk like a man. Seems they well I don't know why but these people attacked me on the sight of my wings which once was like how an angel's wings are depicted.

All I know is when hey saw them they lose all human sense and jumped me biting and clawing at my wings and me mangling them beyond repair. I am not sure if when they surged outward when I sneezed if they took me as a threat and was going to attack, or if they just don't like anything that looks like it might be related to an angel. I woke up left for dead 5 miles away from Avalonia being carried by a woman who seemed to look almost like a 12 year old, pure white hair and skin in a pure white dress, But the one thing that set her colors apart was those blood red eyes she had looking forward.

She placed me on a stone and cast a spell summoning my father. Talking briefly in a royal air and a very cold and strict tone. said "Take him and go I have punishment for uncalled for attacking to a guest to dish out. And an investigation into why the people of Avalonia suddenly without cause or warning attacked this man." Then she looked down looking sad in her eyes at me. And she said "For your future safety I would recommend not returning just to be safe."

She then looked at my father and yelled "Don't you dare these are MY people under MY rule if anyone deserves the right to punish them and find out why they attacked it is ME not your scaled backside! And if in my investigations determine it I will send those responsible for starting and instigating the attack additions. I will then after punishing them for disobeying MY laws have my soldiers deliver them to you for your judgement and punishment. BUT only if it is warranted and if you even try to lay siege upon my people's kingdom you will find out what a true immortal is more capable of then you are. And how out numbered you are just with one true immortal pushed to the point of no mercy!"

Then she turned around and vanished into the fog that swelled up behind her suddenly and was as if she herself turned to fog vanishing and the fog moved out dispersing from the area and she was no where to be seen. Then I passed out and woke up here with Leroy trying to patch me up." Terrance said explaining his encounter and the first and last time he went to Avalonia.

Sardon looked down as Terrance sat more forward a black cloth over his eyes preventing them from opening. "From the attack what I seen before passing out was the last thing I ever saw the rest of my life. My vision was unable to be repaired so I wear a blinder cover to keep more damage from befalling my eyes. So I fear even if I did go with you I would be unable to escort you. For my own safety I make a point of staying away from them.

Avalonians though look like humanoid animals and are known to be very peaceful. But the day I visited I learned how violent they can be if triggered as well. As long as you do not have the wings of an angel you will be fine around them Lyra. Thought the Queen and Princess had more strict measures put in place since that day 12,000 years ago where I barely got away with my life from this woman saving me from the attacks. I am still unclear if the reason for it was found and if so I am not sure if it was shared with us. My father might know but he has not informed me in all this time.

Yet though I am blind, in a way I can still see what is before me but I see not like everyone else. I see the energy of the person or objects in the room as if people look and see red drapes, I just see a glow and pattern of what it is in white, Though some times I see a dark glow as if a black flame surrounds people who are of evil intentions. And when a person lies the white image of the person I see darkens. So I was put on this council as young as I am because of my new sense of vision." Terrence explained looking to Sardon. "Her safety is in your hands don't disappoint father." Then he bowed his wings seen as he stood up matted and in disarray and badly twisted and he walked out helped by a young female servant.

Sardon sighed. "Terrence though he is my nephew, son to my little brother no one knows who his parents are. My brother one day found a basket with a baby crying inside it on the front steps of the council hall. He was about to order the child taken to a human orphanage, but then he seen the wings and decided to keep and raise him as his own child. Knowing because of those wings he would have a hard time from humans as a child. The closest my brother could find about where the child might have come from was mere rumors of him possibly coming from some harpy cross breeding which if a harpy was found to cross breed with any other race the child was killed and the harpy parent having his or her wings cut off grounding them and then banished to die in the world.

Likely a harpy mother gave birth to him and the way he looked could likely lead to her being kicked out of her clan for crossbreeding even if he would have been born from both parents being a harpy as some accounts have been recorded in history of nearly fully human looking harpies being born from both parents being harpy. Though it is rare. Though they never looked like Terrance had. So there is no proof positive information on that. So it is a rumor. The only other explanation as to who his parents might be.... Well perhaps he is the offspring of an actual angelic being." Sardon said then shrugged his shoulders a bit and sighed. "It pains me to see him this way and not able to help him." Sardon added and then smiled softly to Hitana and Lyra.

"Oh well but you need not worry I can take you both to meet Sinestra and her court. They know I can be quite a.... Inconvenience.... If they try to harm you other then drawing with a needle a sample of your blood to test and if deem your able to receive immortality to under go the ritual. I have had a few dealings with them before over many years and have well... helped them find ow donors from time to time as they call them." Sardon said snickering. "As well as taking possible people Sinestra wanted to see if they would join her court and see if they was able to do so." Sardon added in a light manner to try making Lyra and Hitana relax.

Sardon gestured ladies first towards the door behind them. "Of course when your ready I can take you there." He said waiting on them showing he was in no real rush.

Lyra watched her heart falling feeling bad for him and she nodded softly. "I hope things somehow improve." she said softly then looked at Sardon. "I'm ready to go when you are and when my sister is."

"I'll be ready to go here and plan to stay with you. So take us dragon man." Hitana said watching Sardon then moved to step out with Lyra following behind feeling better and it made Hitana happy to see her sister not upset crying and anything else like before.

"How long will it take us to get to the mountain place?" Lyra asked curiously looking at Sardon as she followed her sister but walking slower.
PostPosted: Fri Mar 13, 2015 9:14 pm


Sardon walked out the door to a large area on a large open balcony. "Oh it will take 30 minutes if traffic is bad in the skies around that area. Less if we are lucky." He said then stood far back from them as he grabbed a saddle for two which was much bigger then he was at present. "You boy! Get ready to saddle me up!" He said to the fe young men standing there near by.

Sardon closed his eyes focusing and started to glow and crackle as lightning danced only around him and the sky darkened a little. Then as the bolts dancing around flew up into sky a massive bolt came right down and hit Sardon from the look of the downward bolt one would expect a crispy man but instead the massive bolt got drawn into him as he grew in size and once the lightning disappeared and he stopped glowing there stood a steel grey colored dragon as if almost dressed in armor of metal but if one looked it was hardened scale plates fused to his body that took on a metalic look and was lustrously shined to sparkle and be so shiny it was like a mirror.

Flexing his wings and stretching he growled out a groan of a rumble before his deep rumbling voice echoed out of his mouth. "Ah to shed such restraints of confined space into my true form, It feels good and liberating." He said then shook from head to tail and then lay down almost completely as the young men would go to work fixing the saddle upon him that was to hold Lyra and Hitana on his back for the flight. Once it was securely on one of the more burly men pulled tighter in one strap which made Sardon nearly whine almost. "OY! lughead that a little too tight down there." Which made a few people laugh as they stood back.

There was a wood platform he walked up to once the saddle was set right and he shook testing it as he stepped easily over Lyra and Hitana. This platform came right up to his back though the platform had three levels the very top was the right height for someone to get on his back. "Okay I am ready just climb on my back and we will be off you two." He said to Lyra and Hitana waiting for them.

Lyra and Hitana were shock at this sight then approached when told to with the fire one going up first then Lyra. Hitana sat in fron as Lyra sat in back wrapping her arms around her sister.

"Ready" they both said together as Hitana held onto the reigns if there were any as they were ready for him to take off.
PostPosted: Fri Mar 13, 2015 10:32 pm


Sardon looked back laughing. "You know there are passenger belts to fasten around you, You know." He said pointing to the straps with his tail tip which would keep them from falling off if he had to do a back roll or loop for emergency maneuvers. Which two Female guards standing by hearing that helped fasten them in the seats still able to wrap her arms around Hitana if needed but made sure neither would fall out of the saddle. "Okay now we are ready." He said bracing for take off the long strip of an area he was on had a opened area at the end of the long jutting out part. Which was actually a take off strip for dragons and other flying steeds.

Once the belts was fastened on Lyra and Hitana the reigns was attaches to the thick base of his horns Which if a sharp turn was needed to be done if he did not see the one with the reigns could veer them away suddenly. Sardon's wings started glowing as did his feet and suddenly he shot off as if fired at high speed using his lightning power to quickly speed them along the ground as if shooting him from a cannon leaping into the air flapping his wings hard lifting up he sped across the sky quickly into the air higher and higher. Once getting high enough he slowed to a normal flight speed the large castle like complex of the fort kingdom of the immortal council looked like an outhouse in comparison then a colored blur as Sardon level out.

He glided for a good distance before flapping his wings to maintain the altitude soon there was more people flying on gryphons and dragons over fields in the skies But due to Sardon's size most other flying traffic went around him so he didn't bother until one swift gryphon dived nearly clipping his head and he snorted but then it did it again and he roared. "OJaka! I told you not to mess with me before. And you have the nerve! Ooh that does it!" He said in his booming voice and went chasing the gryphon who had no rider. Swerving this way and that way Sardon was hell bent on having an inflight meal of this gryphon now after the third time which it clawed Sardon on his face a drop of blood flying back from his cut as it healed in seconds.

Possibly hitting Lyra or possibly Hitana from the sudden movements. For several minutes flying in a circle up and down the Gryphen got away into a small cave in the mountain which Sardon circled passed a few times snorting before he hit into the mountain knocking a large rock in front of the cave and flew off. A single feather in his mouth from almost catching Ojaka. Then he flew on towards Avalonia. "Sorry about that. That pesky runtling has done that for his own amusement for several years after he lost the rider that was bound to him in the war. He is free and not bound to obey orders so he seeks to bother me whenever I fly just for his own fun because he is so quick. Oddly he only goes after me though. But he knows not to mess when I am transporting people." Sardon said looking to make sure the two was alright as he continues the flight path.

The pair held on tight and when the blood happened HItana moved so Lyra who was holding on and head down wouldn't get struck by it and when all had leveled out Hitana wiped it off and sighed. "I see....maybe he just wants a playmate and he knows you so think syou are willing to play?" she asked offering that as a reason.

"Maybe he likes you and wants a buddy." Lyra offered as a reason looking up to him and watched a feather fly off and her face fell worried.

"Don't worry Lyra he didn't hurt him. That griffon managed to outfly old man here." Hitana assured and Lyra sighed relieved to hear that as they continued.

"I"m go sglad." she asid smiling softly showing more Lyra wasn't much for death.
PostPosted: Sat Mar 14, 2015 12:06 am


Sardon smirked. "Well its not playful exactly. For a dragon of my size I can nearly keep up with the fastest gryphon, I can even out run most other swift dragons due to infusing my wings with my lightning power. So him and I are the two fastest fliers of these skies. But he knows he is a little faster then I am. But thats only because he is smaller then me. If he could talk like humans can, if you could understand his words you would see he was aggressive towards me. Telling me the sky is his domain. That he is king of the sky and I must bow to him or die."

Sardon sighed then looked over and grunted. "Hang on we just past our destination that gryphon's meddling threw me off course." he said as a flow of lightning went passing to his right wing as Avalonia mountain was on his left transferring more lightning to his right wing as well as raising his right wing and lowering his left. The lightning traveled safely under the saddle through him to his right wing and turning his head to the left and tail to the right started a swifter turn then he should have been able to make. A small trail o lighting could be seen lingering behind hie right wing tip as if shooting out to boost the speed of the turn.

Then lining up straight with the castle ground on the flat peak of the mountain the lightning dispersed in glittering sparks out of his wings until it was gone and he slowed considerably gliding in fluttering his wings as he landed softly trotting to a stop before the massive gate where guards had appeared in white armor ready to draw weapons. "Hail Sinestra, She has visitors that seek the test." Sardon said out as he lowered himself to the ground seeing one guard taking off inside the gate through a small door that was quickly shut tight and locked by people on the inside. The platform here was much smaller so sardon had to lay down so it was an easy climb down for the ladies on his back to get off as guards stood still still judging them as possible hostiles.

The sisters watched Lyra feeling bad and as they landed the pair unbuckled themselves and got down moving carefully with Hitana in front guarding her sister glaring at the guards. "You dare harm my sister and I"ll harm you all back and make you regret it." she threanted them strictly her body tense watching them.

"Hitana don't make them angry. They arelady don't trust us." Lyra said softly worried they were going to attack them and remembered how Terrance looked and she felt worried they might be attacked badly as well as they stayed near Sardon.
