Welcome to Gaia! ::

Olandrik shook his head a bit. "My mother has been working on that very project for a few thousand years now. Still the closest she has ever got was 5 minutes of temporary possession control of another person's body. But the person had to wear the crystal as a necklace.

Now perhaps if a strong enough person to keep from getting absorbed into the crystal was found they might be able to will a crystalline like body to form out side the crystal that might be doable but yet we have not found another user.

Or if we had though it might still register as being fused to Akuna that it might not work to try getting it to go with another to use it. the diamond crystal is just odd and picky I think. If there was just a way we could be sure who would be a chosen one of the diamond crystal. Though no one has been found or atleast none thats a more fit match then Akuna.

So well if you see it and find a way to get it to basically spit Akuna out you will have done what no other person not even the creators of these crystals could do. Though likely to get her spit out unharmed basically there might have to be a sacrifice to put inside the crystal to replace Akuna. Though that alone is dangerous in itself, Also you would have to be supervised by people who can act fast with magic to protect you. That or if you got ideas when looking at it you can verbally explain it to my mother see if it might help." Olandrik said having deep thoughts about it.

Then he shrugged and nudged Hitana playfully with his elbow in her side. "Worry about it later. You won a good brawl and earned a lot of money. This is cause to celebrate. And did you notice we lost Lyra?" Olandrik said looking around to see if he could find where Lyra slipped off to.

Sardin laughed and shook his head. "It's rigged you know. Fights like those that are done for peoples amusement? Two of the men that put up a good fight and the person that got up when they went to the corners between rounds looking to be someone that was giving advise? Yeah those people work for the manager of those fighters.

Telling them if they lose they would get a lot of money and at the end looked like a punch to the jaw narrowly missed and the person goes down? yeah thats why and when that girl fighters turn was up yet a 5th male jumped into the ring to fight Hitana? You know the one who she had less of a easy fight with?

He is an actual fighter served in one of the last great wars before times of peace set in. So he had actual fighting experience. Those who was there presented in the ring looking tough yeah they likely worked on farms or mining and yet could hold there own in a civilian fist fight in a bar, But had no real experience to actual military based fighting.

Likely that person that kept trying to get Hitana to sit a moment to rest and drink some water was likely one of the managers helpers to talk her into throwing the fight after she made such progress. But the training Hitana got while you was taught how to handle your immortal effected self. Well that was actual military style combat she learned from a high commander and great swordmaster who fought in 3 great wars himself.

So she had a greater fighting ability then those 5 civilian fighters had which is why it seemed so easy for her for the first 4 fighters. But we won't tell Hitana that." Sardin said smirking and winking at Lyra. "But now we need a personal fighters feast I have an idea what to fix if you don't mind me helping?" Sardin said afterwards.

Sardin smirked at Lyra "well it will have a course of several foods 4 types of meat, and several cheeses, nuts, veggies and fruit It comes packed in a box ready to fix as you see fit. It is a large meal and can take up to 2 hours to cook it. its kinda like a 4 meat stew of fish, chicken, beef and pork.

It is a meal that helps the body grow stronger and not weaken from over working in fight training." Sardin explained then looked to the person behind the counter "One large gladiator special please." He said then smirked to Lyra. But then he eeped and ducked as a voice echoed from the back in odd language ducking rewarded Sardin with being missed by a meet cleaver. Sardin stayed low and spoke back in a language similar to the one from the back. A growling tone barked back out and Sardin huffed. "Great they hired HIM!"

He said grumping then spoke back "It's not for me but those I guard, It's for the twins normally called the moon and sun you fool!" Sudden odd silence fell over the back area then a grunting was heard behind Lyra as a stocky dwarf male with a huge hair net on his head and chin as he stared between Lyra and Sardin then poked Sardin in the chest. "Oi where is the sun and moon then prove it to me. Or need I sell carved up dragon meat in a few days?" He grunted and then belched right in Sardin's face who turned green not able to hold his breath in time but Sardin choked pointing to Lyra "Moon is there." then Sardin passed out.

The dwarf was fast and nimble for such a short and stout looking man. "OY! I am not out to hurt ye two, I just have little to no fondness for deserters of battle like Sardin. So Aye I am rough with him, Because of him up and running from the face of battle like a coward. Yet at the end of battle he claimed part of the victory rights fer himself yet he ran and hid like a worm." He said grunting.

Olandrik had came in and sighed looking at the dwarf. "Kimlar had you thought Sardin just withdrew to fine another way to get at the enemy? Like flanking the enemy to attack on another front to further divide their focus to make it possible to win? Because I was there too you know. I was on the elvin front 10,000 years ago. And I thought of doing the same thing but I wasn't able to get away from that front. The orc and goblin war was a mess. It was like every time we cut one of the goblins down 5 more popped up in their place.

The only thing that got us a victory was when the earth golems rose out of the ground to help fit stomping and cracking the earth collapsing the tunnels the goblins was using to get into the citadel of the great dwarven city. Golems of the earth elemental that fought turning the tides of battle from the dwarf, elven, and human fronts was losing until they came to fight as well. And it just so happens that Sardin made a pact with that earth elemental years before that battle saving the life of the earth elemental lord Ganag'kar the elemental deity of the dwarves' next heir.

And Ganag'kar owed a life debt to Sardin. Yet you know how the elementals are like 'War of those of flesh are not of our concern.' type of thinking. Yet I know you seen Ganag'kar's marking on those Golems. Because you vocally questioned what spurred Ganag'kar into helping with the battle suddenly. Likely Sardin cashed in that life debt for more battle aid.

Sardin told me and showed me this and I know you know orc language being the one who cracked the battle code of the attack plans of the Orc's to get the humans and elves to help in the war. So here read it." Olandrik thrust out a scroll that was written in orc script that entailed the murder of Ganag'kar as well as the enslavement of his children by the Orc's leaders. The dwarf blinked taking it walking off and read it. Freezing in his spot then grunted frowning.

"Aye what is wrote in this 'ere scroll is mighty strong darkness. They wanted the golem kings heart. It is an ancient relic of the gods that once dwelled with all mortals on this world. If they got their hands on it they could literally take control of all the ancient golems all over the world. Ancient guardians that sleep deep under the earth That can be awoken only by the earth elemental lord line." The dwarf sighed grunting eyeing the passed out Sardin who started coming round.

"I thinks if I had discovered this I would have ran to Ganag'kar to warn him as well. A plot like this makes it the elemental's concern as they guard the ancient relics of the gods that are hidden in this world." He thought a bit eyeing Sardin and sighed "Yet all this time of me speaking of Sardin's cowardice he never shared this information. Which would have been proof of him not being a coward." Kimlar sighed and shook his head.

When Sardin regained consciousness Kimlar threw the scroll at Sardin hitting him on the head with it. "Yer a dunderhead!" Kimlar said then grumbled going back into the back of the meat shop the girl behind the counter stood there wide eyed blinking watching him go back into the back of the shop after fetching the meat cleaver.

Sardin raised a brow at this looking confused until he looked at the scroll. Then Sardin sighed rolling it up putting it back into his seemingly bottomless hip mounted pocket.

Olandrik sighed "its similar to the title of sacred fire and sacred water your grandmother gave the two of you. For dwarves it's sun and moon. For elves it is Blessed day and somber night. Your births was foretold of in all the races tribes. It is just meaning you two was born naturally knowing of your powers and born with them, Where others hat can use elements discover them you two was born using them.

Hitana at birth singed the doctor's eyebrows off, Where as when Lyra cried after birth it was said places that was long dried up filled with water once more. You was no always in a cave by the way, But from such strong power that you both was born with your mother took you and hidden you away." Olandrik explained to them this and watched them as Sardin grunted.

"It is believed those born with elements will accomplish great things, Weather they are bound of evil or good that depends how they are raised I suppose. Like someone born with a touch that instantly kills a person per say. That power is deemed evil off the bat. But it can still be used for good, as can someone being born with the touch to bring life back into the dead, Firstly is labeled good off the bat but can still be used for evil. As several people say "Power alone is neither good nor evil, But the alignment towards good or evil depends on how a power is used that determines if it is good or evil." Sardin said then oofed as a large box was thrust into his gut by the dwarf. Sardin took it blinking and spoke.

"Ye should have spoken out against the cowardice claims with that proof that it was you who told the golem lord of it and it got his aid in the orc and goblin war Sardin. It would have been better to get praise for that then to be seen as a deserter in the middle of battle." He said giving a stern look and the stink eye to Sardin then went back to work.

Sardin laughed. "Lyra he was gentle with that. If he wasn't I would be picking myself up. Even though I am half dragon he would still have toppled me if he was not gentle." Sardin said then paid for his order and this stuff to cook. He then checks his spice collection and grunts finding one of them near empty and went to get another bottle and added that to his order.

Once it was all paid for he put the spice in his hip pouch and carried the box of food. "Well let's go have a small victory feast shall we?" Sardin said looking to Hitana then snickered knowing what he did about the fight.

Olandrik rolled his eyes at Sardin's snickering sighing following them out.

"Oh just getting information about where Sardin plans to take you two to study. Because Sardin just simply said without properly explaining, The grand magus who is my mother mind you. has this power no one else can use. It has come in handy to stop people from making grave mistakes by making them stop moving, Hitana was worried the grand magus would urn her or you into her puppet. All she can do is make your body stop moving that is all. And I set her fears on that straight." Olandrik said walking with them to a inn that had individual kitchens in the rooms they rented out.

Sardin got a suite for 4 with separate bedrooms and bathrooms. The one they had was 2 bathroom and 4 bedrooms with a kitchen and dining area combo meaning the kitchen was where there was a decent sized table for eating at. getting the key he gave it to Olandrik as they headed for the room. "Well I will be picking up more cooking supplies in the morning. This box contains a small feast its a surprize for one who fought so hard. But it will be a feast fit for a grand fighter." Sardin said whistling a bit innocently.

Sardin was chopping carrots quickly like an expert cook. Pausing as Lyra asked that. "Oh it's like a 3 day flight from here or well. It 3 days takes flying and stopping to use the bathroom, eating and bathing as well as resting to get there, there are several magic barriers that unless you know the proper path and cycle you could be flying for weeks and never find the towers.

There are others like you Lyra that well are vampires. Who came into their powers at a certain age. the reason for the two towers is to well separate vampires with non vampires, Helps reduce non vampire people being used as a food source by the vampires. She gets donated bags of blood that are kept cool and record who takes one to regulate how often they get another bag. the max is like 6 bags a day. but not everyone uses 6 a day so it leaves plenty for well emergency needs.

By land it would take 3 weeks to get there incase you wondered." Sardin said as he cooked and seasoned the veggies. Taking turns with pans he moved quick enough to at times give the illusion he started splitting into two of himself.

Olandrik watched Hitana and once was done pondered. "That might work but your not fully ready to do something on the scale of Akuna's body yet. you need proper training to grow stronger and lessen the strain of that." And as he said that the same imp appeared behind Hitana hitting her 4 times on the head with the power restricting staff it had then poofed away before Hitana could grab it.

Olandrik thought and then taking it held it in his hands focusing and it pooked with a rainbow color flash and then opened his eyes. "Well I think it migh be a possiblity though you just focus getting proper training and put that far deep at the back of your head for now I sent it to my mother and attached a mage note, Detailing what I observed and for her to get a good look on it. Yeah Sardin is a decent cook, which surprises me. As gruff as he is you'd think his refined cooking is charring a piece of meat on a camp fire." Olandrik smirked.

Sardin kept working on the main thing and looked over his shoulder. "Say Lyra could you help by peeling and coring the apples? Then thinly slice them into cubes the size of a sugar cube for me?" He asked to include her into helping with what he was making to make her feel more helpful.
