The wind seemed to swirl around him as an emerald green dragon materialized before him.
"Before I answer your question. Permit me to ask you this.
Why is it you wish to look back when above all, you must move forward?
Surely you must realize that it is the nature of all creatures to forget what pains them, both mind and body.
Memories, traditions, nostalgia, they are all powerful influences. But they can be anchors as well, chains that tie you down to false premonisions, fabricated emotions, and obsolete ideals.
Such burdens cannot be discarded so easily once they are attached. Do you truly want to know the sufferings of a generation that no longer holds any correlation to you?"

"what i want to know is who my father was to your culture and how he was seen in the eyes of other dragons,yes i should move forward but if i dont find my answers or find a reasonble explination as to why i cant find the answers then this will remain to hold me back and not allow me to go forward as fast or in the right direction"was rook's response.frankly he was starting to get pissed at all the delays.he had hoped to find answers along with friends and allies when coming to draconia.

(One more trip, that'll be it.)
"Very well then."
Valitora stood up to full height and outspread her extremely large wings.
"The one you seek is a survivor of the Heinian house. A family that was destroyed in the aftermath of the Alexanderian conflict.
He is currently outside my kingdom as he is no longer welcome by me and in the refuge of the holy sentinel, Garuda."
With a flap of her wings, a warp tile appeared in front of Rook.
"Step forward, and I will send you to his sanctuary."
She then paused for a moment.
"Just be wary of this. Many searches like yours do not yeild fruit all at once. If your patenice is not prepared for a chance of disappointment, you too, will not be welcome in my home anymore."

(I know.)
Rook, however, forgot at that moment the room would be spinning again.
After the warp sequence he found himself grounded on a large red carpet in a stained glass room.

"What, you're leaving so soon?" said a tiny voice.
"But you haven't gotten the info you came for."
When Rook turned around, he saw what appeared to be a child dragon laying on a large stone pedestal and tablet. Though he looked like a child, his gray eyes seemed so old.
"You'll have to excuse this small body, I named my heir only three hundred years ago. I am Garuda the holy sentinel, welcome to my chapel."

Garuda chuckled.
"Valitora sent you on the express route here. She may be smart, but she needs to be less subtle sometimes."

"I don't know him personally," Garuda said, his chin resting on his claws.
"But if the blood runs red, the guy in the northern sanctum should have a reference.
Of course, I'd be careful if I were you. You see, all the dragons I take in from the other kingdoms were and probably still are, supporters of Alexander. They come here because my land is an area of total neutrality and is the only place they can still live in comfort.
Not that a lot of them follow the rules here unless pressured."

The hallways were lit and warm, but tension filled the air as all the dragons Rook passed by glared at him.
He then came to a door with the symbol Garuda mentioned to him.
Beyond this door, was the person he sought.
