As, for what you choose to do now, it is up the four of you. I shall follow where ever you go, offering my guidence and help when need be.
Her eyes glinted.
But, I must say, I wouldn't miss this adventure for the world.

E'tyra padded about her burrow, low beneath the blazing desert sun. She had dug it out many a year ago to escape the pressure of the heat and harsh sands during her past pregnancies. Now it was just a hallowed ditch for planning and resting after battles--territorially or Elven.
Her head was hung low, her jaws hardened into snarl with a low growl parting her lips. A whip-like tail lashed through the room, stinging the grainy walls and causing dust to float onto her lightly hued scales. Her talons gripped her each step with powerful determination, cutting into the sandy floor like a knives.
Empty eyes surveyed the burrow driving into each detail, mind deep in thought. Her hide twitched, the memory of her own eggs and hatchlings flooding back to her. That one egg...
Stolen straight from the nest. E'tyra opened her jaws and snapped them together in rage with enough force to destroy several on the Grey Folk. Deep blue tendrils of smoke curved to the ceiling from her blood thirsty mouth as she remembered the story as clearly as yesterday.
A young draconic couple, the first nest, the first batch of eggs. The couple leaves for a few days, out to explore the new territory, one they will die for after the hatching. Night falls. The evil strikes. All eggs but one gulped from the nest, shells and all swallowed like an early dinner. The last hidden by a bramble haven.
The couple returns, outraged. Frantic, they dig through the nest praying for survivors, any at all. All that is left? A single, pure white egg hidden by luck. Immediately, the couple sets off for their revenge leaving the nest unguarded for days... weeks... months...
They return. The egg? Missing. No scent of dragons, no strong trail from anything nearby. The couple was swimming in guilt, dancing aimlessly over the nearby forest, crying out to their hatchling, never to be seen again.
E'tyra awoke from her memory shrieking with anger. She thwapped her tail against the walls, the ground, the ceiling. The entire earth seemed to shake with her fury. How could such a precious thing disappear so easily? Above, the quiet rumbles of distress reached her roaring ears. E'tyra spun around to the exit and roared up it, demanding the intruder leave; the plans for the next attack were not prepared. No, not yet.

Cyra Hakkai As, for what you choose to do now, it is up the four of you. I shall follow where ever you go, offering my guidence and help when need be.
Her eyes glinted.
But, I must say, I wouldn't miss this adventure for the world.
Alianae nodded at Cyra's words. "I, personally think we should go to the queen. Not Eragon, but us. We should tell her that some dragons are friendly, and that we have discovered a way to commuincate with them. I think the main problem here is simply communication." She turned to face Bid'Daum. "Perhaps you can go and speak to a dragon. Say you have a theory about how to speak with the Grey Folk? It has been a weary five years for all of us, I'm sure they'll want to make peace." she said slowly. She wasn't really sure of anything, really..but they had to try anything and everything they possibly could.

((I don't know. Isidar had the story plot sort of figured out I think. I'm not sure where to go from here.))
Kelita stood patiently. "Well. I've heard enough are we going are are we just going to stand here? We better hurry before I change my mind."
((sorry I have to go.))

This seems to be getting nowhere. Shall I suggest we split up? Or shall we stay as a group?
Cyra stared impatiently at the group.

((I was waiting for someone ese to post first..))
Alianae nodded. "Then the rest of us should go to the Queen. Perhaps we could make a farith of Eragon and Bid'Daum? But..maybe not showing your face Eragon, so the don't know who it is."

That would be a smart move. Proof for the Queen. Who would like to do the honors?
(Sorry. >.<)

((who else is here?? I can't get to profiles to check..))
Alianae hesitated. "I'll do it." she said, taking out a stone tablet ready to make a farith. She had ben saving it for something else but..this was more important. She spoke the words to capture the image onto the tablet. When she was done, it was an exact picture of Eragon and Bid'Daum, peacefully side by side.

Cyra leapt to Alianae's shoulder, she looked at the farith.
Beautiful.
She said softly.
This will be treasured for all time...

Alianae smiled at Cyra's words. "It's just a silly farith.." she muttered softly, without commitment. Somehow, she knew Cyra's words were true. Always trust a werecat..
"Well, come on. It's a long way to the capital."

Admireing the farith a few seconds longer, Cyra said,
Very true. Shall we start our adventure?
She asked in a jokeing tone.

"Adventure.." Alianae said. There was a ring of truth to that word. She shivered. "Yes, we should." She wrapped the farith back up and stowed it away. "To Illera!"
((spelling errror. I'm doing this off the top of my memory, which is in active at the moment. I'm talking about the elven capital that then became Uru'baen.))

Grining, the Werecat said,
To Illera!
Jumping from her shoulder, Cyra began to run, only pauseing before leaving the clearing, and to say,
Well, are you comeing?
She laughing and bounded out of sight.
(It's okay. Just go with the flow. xD We all have our days)
