Welcome to Gaia! ::

((Well, Tryst'n isn't really being a help either right now. Ci'nala is trying, though))

Finally, Ci'nala managed to get herself off the ground, despite the pain in her wing joints. She had two theories why this was happening, but none made sense at the time. She followed Achiu's scent markers.

Tryst'n was taking a nap when he felt Ci'nala's wing pains and sighed.
"Well, bad news; Ci's having problems flying. She can't fly for very long anymore, which isn't good. I think her parent's condition has gotten to her."

Kai sighed and accepted the help to sit up before staring wide-eyed at the young dragon, "You talked to Nari!?" He blurted out, starting to panic as he glanced around, trying to remember what happened and calming down a bit as he recalled Calypso in his human form in some little cave and a few bits and pieces of what they spoke of on the way back.
He took a few breaths to calm himself before he thought about Calypso's question. "...my scar? It's from when.." he glanced at Calypso for a moment and sighed as he shifted his gaze to the ground. "From when a dragon tried to eat me when I was younger..."

((I apologize for not posting, I was traveling and there were.... issues))

Korin watched on, slightly bemused by Eclipse's transformation, before out and out laughing in his face. "HA!! I do not believe, that for one second, you truly began to like me in any way, shape or form. But I will admit to one thing, you certainly have captured my interest!!! I was begining to think that, perhaps, I had chased off all the dragons. Leaving them to find a new place to live." Hesitating for a moment, he said. "Well, I guess that is not completely true. I knew there were dragons here when I heard all the roaring earlier, so I guess I just lied to myself and to you. I apologize for that. I am getting so excited, my thoughts are tumbling over themselves!! My hunt can finally begin, and I don't think I'll stop at just one dragon this time!!!"

Korin, his voice manic with unbridled glee, unhooks his greatsword from its clips, drawing it with an impressive flourish, the dagger still clutched in his left hand. "This will be recorded as the greatest Dragon-Hunt, by the greatest Dragon-Slayer, of all time!!"

Slashing in wide, rapid arcs, Korin punctuates them with cries as he advances on the rather angry snarling dragon. "Taste my blade, Estraho-Nex!! Dragon's-Death!! Demons-Bane!! Ender of the pitiful, mortal races!!!"

((Got any ego too does he not? He is starting to carry himself. He is not the way I envisioned him, but I think I like where he be going by himself. Also one of the issues was having to sleep in an airport, overnight in Cleveland, Ohio. crying never again!!))

((Aw, hope you sleep well back in your own bed...er..a guest bed depending on where you are now..))

Kai narrowed his eyes for a second, clenching his hand into a fist briefly, "It's mate ate my parents.. and it got my brother before it snapped me up..so for some odd reason I think it actually was trying to eat me too." Mostly because of the of the overturned memories, Kai kept his gaze on the ground, ignoring the outstretched wing..



Eclipse looked at Korin curiously, "That's quite untrue....your stories are amusing as well as your behavior.. Eclipse chuckled and shook his head, "You are human after all..there are places you cannot reach.."
He brought his tail around to use the barbed end as a shield as he'd done with countless hunters before Korin.
Not bothering to bring up the fact that he could just roast the hunter, but since this was a one-on-one fight he'd be respectful of Korin's courage/arrogance..Eclipse couldn't decide which it was that drove the hunter.

Achiu nodded at Ci'nala's words. "Lords, everyone seems to be falling apart around here," he shook his head. "Well, maybe when things settle down, Yuran or Yamamoto can take a look at you. I don't know how much they'll be able to do, but..."

"Say, are you alright to fly back or should we walk?"

"That makes sense, I suppose. Of course, if they weren't meant to fly, I don't know why they would have been born with wings. I guess it's one of those mysteries of nature that we'll never understand. But if Achiu is still with her, I'm sure he'll make sure she's alright."

Calypso hummed sadly.
I want to apologize. On behalf of dragonkind.
The young dragon said and transformed so that he could sit beside Kai instead of being a reminder of something painful.
It is true though, not all of us are bad and I'm sorry you had to meet the few who were. If you wanna hate me I understand because I hate most humans too. They killed my father and clutchmates.
Calypso said, his blue eyes cold.

Kai sighed and shook his head. "..I don't hate you Calypso... I mostly fear and kinda hate new dragons...hate myself for not dying with my family...hate the people that 'rescued' me and left her.." He mostly was still talking cause the remains of the tranquilizer still had him a little fuzzy in the head, otherwise it was something he didn't want to talk about.

((Oh it is my bed, thank the gods))

Hearing the dragon speak, Korin shouted over the clamor as his sword scraped sparks over the barbed, sinuous tail. "And are you, Wyrm, going to tell where it is I can't reach?"

Sliding his sword between the barbs on the makeshift shield, Korin pushes it to the ground and jumps over it. "I wonder how much pain you'll be in when I do this!" He pulls on the handle of the blade, twisting the tail until the bones give a audible cracking sound.

((Tell me if it seems too drastic a move))
