Gale nodded sighing and looked to Mida with worry on his face. "I would want you to knock me out Mida. I don't want to hurt you. You're my only daughter and I don't want to bring harm or kill you. If there has been word of me looking like the shadow kin do then I might have been falling to my shadow side off and on. I don't have any memory falling to it but I might have if people are saying things like that." He said and she nodded listening to Sodain then her father and sighed.
"I don't wish to hit him but if I must strike my father in the head then I will if he tries to attack me again. I'm glad to see you're alive father." She said smiling glad and gave him one more hug before Lita walked up and nodded.
"Well the celebration may continue later. For now you still have training. You may watch if like Gale. She is studying healing. You are welcome to watch from the observation room." Lita informed and Gale nodded.
"Thank you I would enjoy that. I want to see how much and big my little girl has gotten. Last time I seen her was.....she was so small and so full of adventure with her mother." Gale said chuckling as he ruffled her hair getting a yelp from Mida who fixed her hair and smiled softly though thinking about her mother who was gone made her sad.
"Yea...so let's go Wolf. You can teach me some new things." Mida said moving away from Gale and over to the green crystal user to walk beside him asking about the plant he had in his arms. As she did this Gale watched, some confusion on his face. He didn't know about his wife dying nor when his wife died as he hadn't been around when that happened. When that took place there was trouble with some of the non-crystal users and with other beasts and shadows at the time so he wasn't home to know his wife had passed so the sadness he saw in her eyes and the way she responded brought him confusion to what was wrong. He started wondering if her mother had hurt her.

Atnok's post from e-mail:
Wolgar nodded as they walked to enter the holo room he had a garden program setup. "Well this one I call necrotrosis because it has an ability to have the possibility to bring the dead back to life. Or that is what many people believe anyway back when the dark arts such as necromancy was practiced, and supposedly there is still a cult somewhere even to this day that has been dabbling in such matters.
But the actual botanical name for it is the death bell because not only is it bell shaped and highly poisonous. but those who are unfortunately uneducated about have eaten it and as they lay dying they are haunted by the sounds of a bell ringing then their bodily vitals fail 5 minutes after they beg for the bell to be silenced." Wolgar said explaining about it as he placed it in a circle of other plants.
"How ever though it is a highly deadly poison it can also be used for medicine. Like to cure leprosy, or other similar ailments, it even works to remove warts painlessly without freezing them off. If you have seen commercials for the wart-away product sold or seen it at a medicine shop its got death bell in that stuff but the deadly poison is filtered out of it." Wolgar added just going on and on seeming like he was never going to stop. Though a herbal doctor, as well as surgeon, and other types of medical practicing doctor.
Sodain sighs a bit walking into the room behind Gale watching. "He is a good doctor. But he can go on without rest for days on end if someone brings up something he is interested about, just try not to say "How did they come up with this in the first place" or he will literally go into the long full history of it and how it has progressed to the point from the time it was created and what lead up to its creation you might turn into a skeleton and he still be rambling on about it." Sodain said softly watching Wolgar explain it to Mida and hoped she had the patience to endure Wolgar's training.
Sodain sat in a seat watching still and said to Gale. "You have been gone so long and out of touch just ask me about anything you want to know that has changed since last you was around." Sodain said listening for Gale if he did ask or talk about anything.

Mida nodded listening as it sounded fasinating but after a bit she began to get annoyed but kept quiet on it, listening to him speak. She now wondered what she got herself into as she entered the holoroom with Wolgar.
Gale looked to Sodain and sighed. "Much seems to have changed. Is her mother treating her alright? Is she abusing her? She looked sad at mention of her so I wonder if she's being treated alright by her mother or if her mother is hurting her." He said his worries and question, not aware of Mida's mother being dead.

Atnok's post from e-mail:
Sodain sighs and then speaks "Well in a way you can say she hurt Mida as well as neglected her for a really long time...." sodain paused there to let it sink into Gale's brain then starts talking again before Gale could react. "....on the account she died quite a few years ago from the one thing no dragon is immune of unless they are a vampire, phoenix, lycan hybrids or a zombie. The data says she died when Mida was like 9 and died from something called 'Lacroix Vasnid tiir' many of her kin joined together after her moms passing to comfort her and raise her as well as teaching her." Sodain said the words meaning a very horrible way that must never be described.
Then Sodain pressed a button opening the mic in the room. "Wolgar shut up before I put the muzzle that speaks only the important stuff and blocks out the history of how the first herbalist nearly killed himself with the runs by tasting odd menacing plants." Sodain said then released the button so the conversation He had with Gale was not heard.
Wolgar blinked and his mouth clamped shut with a snapping sound and a look of hurt on his face then glared up at Sodain. "Well I never! Oh how rude!" he said then went on about the properties of the other plants. So many looked similar yet slightly different at the same time.

Gale stared in shock his face falling then his eyes lowered and closed, his breath sighing out as he thought of how horrible it must had been. "I see....that explains why she looked so sad. I should have been there for her to help but I wasn't. I wasn't there for her when she needed me the most." He said sadly.
Mida hearing Sodain's threat giggled covering her mouth, glad and found it funny and found Wolgar's reaction also funny and paid atteitnon as he gave the info on the other plants with naems and how to tell them apart and what was good for what. It was facinating at how much therewas to know and remember.
"So has she been happy?" Gale asked quietly, watching her take in the info and making notes on some paper with key notes on how to tell them apart. "Has she been taken care of well then? When did she wake up to having the ruby crystal power?" he asked curiously his voice quiet and wondering how much he had missed being away fighting to keep his family safe.

Atnok's post from e-mail:
Sodain sighed. "The important thing is your here for her now. Just try avoiding anything that catches your reflection. Many shadows can work spells through them if one that has been touched by them looks even for a split second. Glass how ever dosn't work it seems most likely because there is no solid image but a highly transparent one. Just in case you are spell touched." Sodain advised then paused pressing the microphone outside the room.
"Lita or Itari or even Kurai want to bring the current encyclopedia of hearbs through teleportation Wolgar is start to go in a excited fit and speeding up. Mida's table is about to catch fire as she is trying to keep up with Wolgar."
Sodain then pressed a few buttons as an alarm sounded and a large cannon type thing pointed at Wolgar and show a stream of water which froze encasing him in ice. "Hey what was that for I was not rambling on about the history of herbology and medicine again." Wolgar said from inside the ice cacoon.
Sodain spoke into the rooms mic "You stated going too fast and she almost made the notepad she has burst into flames I think I did see faint smoke rising up from it so I used the thing I had installed just for such an occasion or to trap an intruder." Sodain then went to privately talk with Gale more.
"Well we have taken good care of her under the training here. but she recieved most her dragon training by Grand Elder Kaa. But only been two week since I traded her the ruby crystals for a vacation from the task of being the ruby guardian. After you vanished my mother. Lady Galvaria whitescale came into possession for about 2300 years before a tradgedy happened and a shadow had spelled my father to try to kill me but as a tiny whelp barely able to have a humanish face as well as a few areas like a human from my hybrid form." Sodain said softly just above a mumble. "Mother was not welcomed in dragonia anymore by the ancient drahkin because I was a hybrid that was forbidden to create. But my mother strongly bonded with my father." Sodain closed his eyes as a tear looking to be filled with fire slowly slid down his face.
Sodain clearly having found out when he first did about his birth was a forbidden birth from one of the elden as the easy name meaning of the first brooding of creation that he felt slightly ashamed. "I know I count myself lucky, a female dragon can lay from 1-12,000 eggs per breeding. Well i don't know how many she had laid but I do remember her sobbing and a dark raspy males voice scolding her.
"And we also put a lock on you so you can never birth those freaks It's just a good thing we crushed them all before a single on of those monstrosities began to hatch." then they left kicking my mother down the stairs to her brooding den as I heard them take off. She cried and I seen her pull one almost ready to hatch dragon like 3 days from hatching where they still are fragile they can't survive outside the egg. Well I seen her pull one like that limp to her and started wailing oddly as the broken eggs started to turn to energy and float away.
I called out 'mama! why cry?' but all that came from me was a squeeky chirping sound, but it caught her attention then she blinked several times before tackling me and hugging me tightly. If I would have been destroyed before I took a breath of air I would not have been around to prevent this world from becoming over run with shadows." Sodain sighed missing his mother strongly.

Mida giggle then blinked watching Wolgar and then looked at Sodain wondering what made him do that to the one instructing her on plants and healing. "He wasn't....." she sighed looking down at Wolgar and moved at his side and when Sodain wasn't watching started to inhale then exhail letting out a tiny flame of fire escape her mouth to melt the ice.
Outside the room Lita and Kuri blinked not sure why Sodain wanted the book as they had been talking but shrugged and went getting the encicalpedia on plants and herbs for Sodain.
Gale listened feeling bad for Sodain and sighed wondering if there was anything he could do but could not think of anything he could do to help Sodain any.
"You are upset too often, Sodain, you already know your mother lives. I serve her first before you or others. Do you need me to run a scan on your memory?" A female's monotone voice came causing Gale to jump and move looking at Silvia who stood behind the pair, watching Sodain then Gale, eyeing him over as her eye scanner took over his form and presented his data to her. "Gale Stoneheart. Stories of you are legend. I hope you enjoy your stay." She said flatly then turned her eyes back to Sodain, still having one side of her hair over her one eye as it was habit. "In case your memory has lapsed then I shall remind you. Your mother resides in the western wing of Syna. I can lead you if you cannot remmeber which way is west." She stated feeling Gale's eyes on her.
"Do you really talk to him like that girl?" Gale asked watching the young woman who kept her eyes on Sodain but looked annoyed at Gale's question.
"My name is not girl. My name is Silvia and I shall not be called girl. I am a servant and diamond crystal user. Hold your tounge halfling of light and shadow." She hissed back, glaring at the man who narrowed his eyes at her hissing tone.
When Lita and Kuri had the book they entered the holo room and walked over dropping the heavy book on the table and looked to see the water formed on the floor from Mida melting the ice. "Seems we came in a bit late." Lita muttered to Kuri who ndoded and lgnaced up to see Sodain, Silvia, and Gale, wondering what they were talking about but kept his thoughts to himself before looking to Mida who stood and eyed the book. "Don't worry, Sodain asked us to bring in this book. It gives all the details that Wolgar here can go days and days if not months on." Lita giggled smiling and walked over poking Wolgar's nose giggling.
"He's obsessed with plants. We got that from his personal stash of books." She giggled as Kuri chuckled nodding and Mida walked over starting to look through it, skimming and seen a lot was what she did remember him saying and was glad to read it slowly.
"He's a great teacher but he was going faster than I could write. I almost ignited my notes." Mida explained showing the small smoke burn mark on the pad of paper from how fast she had been going before hand.
Lita blinked and giggled. "You still get caught up in it. That's so cute Wolgar." Lita cooed giggling again and poked his forehead because she could.

Wolgar grunted and turned into his pure wolf form and snorted curling around the odd orange and yellow spiky star shaped flower. "Well its just fascinating you know dragons bane which is extremely deadly to dragons if they ingest it can have that poison neutralized with seminole and it becomes a highly potent ulcer cure even for dragons?" Wolgar said yawning staying curled around that plant in the pot.
Sodai sighed. "I was telling Gale how I was lucky to be alive and why when my dragon mother laid so many eggs how I was just about the only child. there was a second egg but I don't know what happened to it. So who knows I may have a sibling out in the world roaming around." Sodain shrugged saying that.

Mida nodded watching Wolgar. "it is fascinating. I don't mind listening. Just....maybe a little slower?" she asked not wanting to make him mad. She moved over, got down by him and began to pet his head, rubbing behind his wolf ears. "Here let me pet you as an apology for what happened." She said kindly.
Silvia sighed nodding and relaxed a little as Gale watched her closely. "My scanners show me no data to result in family. If you do they are not in the system." She explained.
In the holoroom Lita giggled watching Mida pet Wolgar as if he were just any dog. "You are different Mida. That is for sure." She said and Kuri nodded smirking. He looked over, forming a crystal and made a small screen low and out of sight he watched a silent video with a confused look. Lita took note of this and looked over, moving closer to see. What she saw was an image of a young man, dragon scales on one arm that also held claws like a dragon walking before attacking a group of people. She blinked then looked at Kuri confused.
Mida looked over curious and stood moving closer to see what they were watching. Seeing this she too was curious more. "Who's that?" she asked softly.
"Not sure." Kuri answered quietly his voice hushed. "Nothing on him matches anything in any data systems anywhere." He said quietly as he went through on a separate crystal with windows of registered living people and creatures with names. He closed the video crystal before he might risk Sodain seeing and didn't want him racing off to find the mystery person. "I'll look more into him. Focus on your training Mida." He said and went to leave.
Lita nodded and smiled petting Wolgar under the chin before leaving her with the study book and Wolgar. Mida watched and sighed. "He didn't look like a bad person. Wonder who he was." She asked quietly, moving over to look over one of the pages in the book so she could take notes at a normal speed so not to set any papers on fire.

Atnok's post from e-mail:
"Someone who shall never be named or listed. There are some people like that even among the dragonians but they refer to them as the lost ones I believe. One not fully aware of the power they hold, not able to control it, and no one knows who gave them life as the parents likely where shamed or feared of being banished for breaking a breeding law most likely." Wolgar said flicking his ears softly.
"I apologize if I got excited and spoke too fast if I do it I don't realize it unless someone tells me. So if it happens again just tell me." He said and looked to the large book that looked like a normal book for an elder dragon to hold and read in one hand.
"That is the known knowledge of all medical plants and herbs even some thought by humans to have been used into extinction. Most see the yellow flowers humans call dandelions as just a common weed. But its good if used properly to reduce warts pick the stem close to the ground and the 'milk' of the plant a sap like juice that is white. and dab it on a wart to shrink it. Though it uses many of these to get rid of 1 small wart like on a finger. You would have to use over 10,000 to get the wart permanently gone." Wolgar said as he stood up walking around the plants in wolf form he didn't end up going into his swift rambling like what got him put on ice earlier.
Sodain winced and stared at his right hand which shook trembling and Sodain got an odd pale look though his eyes began turning red as he quickly stood up. "Excuse me I need some fresh air." He said nearly running down the halls and outside without a coat steam rose off his body as if he was really hot from a sauna.
He stood out by a statue of a very pretty woman with dragon like wings and sighed resting against it shaking looking up to the sky. "Why.... Why must I feel this..." Sodain closed his eyes just breathing the cold air in and out of his nose. Looking down he sighed then started breathing out of his mouth instead of his nose not sure if he was followed by anyone or not.

She looked to Wolgar looking a little sad. "Maybe he's scared. What if his entire life he's been picked on for being different? If that would be so then maybe he just needs help learning. Would your machine work to help him learn to control his power?" she asked quietly finishing writing about the yellow flower. Looking up she saw Sodain quickly run. Blinking she was worried, seeing Silvia race after him. "Wonder what happened?" she asked.
Silvia had followed him outside and looked around stepping closer and stood at his side, her eye glowing red as she scanned him. "What troubles you? You are not a crystal user so what brings you to pain? My scanners are not finding a medical reason for your actions so I am not sure what is happening." She said then began to hold her hand out forming a few diamond crystals and opened them like windows, showing data as she was reading over information on dragon siblings. "You said one egg was left. If you held blood out then....by some of this data some siblings can feel the other when active. Such as when you are active any blood sibling to you can feel you and it appears the other way around works too. What are your thoughts Sodain?" she asked showing him the windows she had opened.
She didn't know if this was so thus did not bother to try and find the video feed Kuri had gotten and still had, reviewing over it and working out where exactly the young man was and where he was going so to find and corner him, figuring if the person was Sodain's bloodline he might not wish to associate with someone created by a forbidden mix of human and dragon since no one else wanted to.

Atnok's post from e-mail:
Sodain shook his head. "I felt as if my arm was covered in blood as well as strongly smelling blood. But yes after the dragon council tried terminating my egg as well as destroying all the others they seen one egg still unhatched but held life in it had found a crack in the ground and avoided being crushed."
Sodain said "Because I am half phoenix and I inhaled air just before I got trampled them unknowing I had awoken and started hatching. After they left the revival powers of my phoenix blood turned my body to ash and I had reformed from the ashes and lived once more. But mother believed all her eggs destroyed until I went over and chirped at her which she hugged me being happy I lived.
But then I smelt something and went over and began digging at crack in the ground uncovering an unhatched egg full of life still. My mother took it from me looking around she ran out of the den she had for birthing. And she flew off I think she planned to hide it so it wasn't found by the dragon council and destroyed." Sodain said closing his eyes and sighed. "And I don't know what became of the egg. But when I asked mother when I felt this once before. I asked her what she did with the other egg. She was confused as if that part of her memory was erased."
He said opening his eyes looking to her his normally black pupils were gold and the normal grey ring of the iris for the colored part was blood red. and his whites.... What normally would be white was solid black which had never really happened to Sodain's eyes before. "Even though I am also a vampire because of my father being one as well as part phoenix I have never drank blood in my life. And if I got a cut on my lip from fighting I avoided letting it get in my mouth. Sure by doing so I am weakened, But I fear what could happen should I taste blood let alone drink it." He said softly as he closed his eyes and rubbed them.
Wolgar looked up and sighed "Sodain probably just don't feel well. He has hardly slept and when he does he jumps up sweating and rushes to a mirror to look and see if blood was in his mouth having night terrors of him becoming something that gorged on the blood of the living and becoming more beast like and feeling as if he was losing his own identity. in the past month since his troubles began he has likely had only 13 hours of sleep. I even made a tonic that would keep him from dreaming but he still had the night terrors, it was as if it was something other than a dream. He even called out a name I never heard before."
He said shaking his head a bit. "And when Sodain gets like this where he has to run out into the snow that blankets the land here just for fresh air if he took his dragon form his right arm would be as it is in his human form but all the rest of him would turn dragon like with patches of feathers among the scales. And yet every test came back as nothing wrong with him. Though red, gold and black would be his eye colors when he had a sickness episode like this but the whites of his eyes turn black, where you have blue color in your eyes he has blood red, and the pupil turns from black to gold." Wolgar said not knowing if it meant anything to people in dragonia but figured it wasn't a good thing.

Mida listened, still feeling worried. Silvia listened and watched Sodain, seeing his eyes she did a quick search, finding answers and her computer side put the information together quickly. She frowned and looked Sodain over. "You will need to forgive or pass punishment later." She said before quickly rushing him, slamming her fist into his stomach a bit hard to knock the air out of him. When she'd do this she would catch him and carry him off back into the castle. She went into the holoroom and tossed Sodain down on the floor if her punch had worked. "Fix him. His eyes are broken." She said bluntly to Wolgar, showing him the data she found including images her mind had taken of Sodain when he had looked at her.
Kuri watched and when he figured out where the young man was and going he closed the video and took a breath, sighing. Opening another window he focused hard, summoning another crystal where the young man was seen at and when he knew the crystal was open and ready he moved through the opening, closing it behind him as he appeared in a village that looked horrible. He winced and shook his head, looking around and moved, swiftly hoping to find the young man, hoping he had not miscalculated.

Sodain blinked and looked at Silvia just in time to see her move swiftly punching him as she did he gave her an odd look as he passed out. Wolgar sighed and walked over to look Sodain over and thought of what to do with the information Silvia showed him and Wolgar took his human form and sat on Sodain's chest Wolgar seemed very light and not to weigh Sodain's chest down. Thinking and then shrugged. "Nothing wrong with his eyes physically. So the only thing I can see wrong is..." Wolgar thinks and then cuts his wrist a little and drips a bit of his blood into Sodain's mouth. Which in the state of being out cold breathing lightly he ended up swallowing it.
In the town not too far off from where Kuri calculated a man hid his right arm wearing a hooded cloak hiding his face as guards ran about the streets looking for someone he ducked into an alley where he slumped against the wall his appearance resembled a homeless beggar. So most the time he was ignored guards yelled to others. "We need to find that monster. The master will have our hides if he escapes. He already killed a few people. If we fail the master will use us instead!"
These guards seemed more of a disorganized group then highly trained soldiers. this town seemed to be a dump, looked like a war was waged and was started to be rebuilt barely. It resembled a town cursed by chaos and a slum for criminals to seek shelter from the actual military soldiers by a ruling head or president. This man just stayed slumped in a disheveled heap drinking out of a odd bottle that to those who had a higher sense of smell would smell it was full of fresh blood as if he collected it from those he killed. "Why do I have to endure the horrors of a madman." he said then took a large drink from the bottle before he got dizzy wincing holding his ribs on his right side as it sounded like bones were popping back into place and soon there was a loud cracking sound and he yelled lightly seeming out of breath coughing and a little blood flew out his mouth before he passed out in the alley way.

Mida blinked watching and wondered if that was wise to do. "Is that smart? he's one third vampire, one third phoenix, and one third dragon. Is it wise to do that?" she asked curious and concerned for Sodain's well being. "Has he ever tasted blood before?" she asked.
Silvia watched Sodain curious and shook her head. "I don't know. I don't have record of him drinking blood. We will find out what happens though." She said readying her arm in way of a gun ready to fire if she had to.
In the town Kuri walked, sniffing the air and he smelt the blood easily. Stepping briskly he came to a stop turning down the alleyway. He went down and paused seeing the body. He pulled open the video and compared the two after kneeling down and holding his head up by his hair. He nodded that was the same. He then saw the blood and sighed as it seemed he was Sodain's bloodline. Picking the man up Kuri held onto him on his back and picked up the bottle, using a crystal to clean up evidence then opened another with a port back to the castle.
Stepping through it with the man on his back he quickly closed it behind him. He sighed walking off to a lab area and put him inside of a crystal capsule and closed it, removing the cloak and began to run tests and studies, comparing him to the data on Sodain to ensure they were the same, not wanting to make a mistake in going to enure he would not be bothering anyone again. He figured the man was just a mindless beast that knew only how to kill and move on after killing and to kill more, not thinking any emotions were there with him.
