Last miniturn.Edit: On second thought, likely-last.
Upair was confused at what he saw. The red stuff on was what peaked his curiosity. He sniffed at it intently, Trying to figure out what it was. What creature was it that he was taken to? He was ready to run just in case it moved, as he gently scratched it to see if it will stir.
You sniff the creature.
It smells... weird. It's a kind of smell that sets off something in your mind, but you have not smelled this smell before personally.
There's another smell, too. A bloody one. And it sets off something that's clear to your mind: Food. ...But is this really food?
You scratch the thing. It does not react at all. It doesn't even breathe.
The green thing continues to watch you intently.
"Oh...alright. Goodnight Mother."
Noraiah moved back into the cave where she usually slept -- quite early as it was nearing dusk.
. . .
Later that evening
Friendly or not, I've to know more about these humans! Such strange things.
I wonder if I'll meet another dragon?
Noraiah popped her head up from behind a stalagmite to check if her parents were awake. Hoping they were not, she decided to go and visit the nearby village - as her father suggested and heeding her mother's advice.
She also tried to scratch something into the dirt outside the cave to tell them where she went. Perhaps a stick figure thing?
You go back to sleep, waiting for the next morning.
...Under the light of the falling sun, you sneak out of your home, leaving a very crude drawing vaguely telling of where you're going.
You leave your cave for one of the nearest villages, to the south. It's a short trip, and you arrive quickly.
The village looks... rather okay. Nothing stands out as horrible. Nothing great, either, but the village is very calm.
Of course, the glaring glances of the people towards you ruins the calming effect. They seemingly try to ignore you as they go about laboring on cut plants--Their 'crops', you presume.
[Int:4]: You don't think they're very happy to see you.
"Oh. I was looking to learn magic. And it seems that you, are, well..." Cevitil gestures to the fountain. "An appropriate person to go to."
"Oh yes, I can teach you water magic, certainly. Though I'd suggest someone else because I'm barely out of my apprenticeship."
Ah, army. Probably not coming to surrender themselves to his golden radiance either, although... Perhaps if Ka flew out to the army and showed them his pristine majesty, then they'd be willing to throw themselves down before him and worship him.
Ka entertained that notion for a few minutes before he remembered what he'd been told about armies carrying vast profusions of pointy objects. It wasn't that he was a coward, it was just that he couldn't really bear the thought of violence or blood. Well, he couldn't bear the thought of his own blood or of having violence committed against him.
Okay, maybe he was a bit of a coward.
"Ah... Where are we headed? I would be remiss in my, er, divine duties if I didn't fly on ahead and... scout the path for you."
"We're heading east to Heltia. The Rihosians won't leave us alone unless we're well out of their way. Be careful while scouting, my lord." Your high priest bows.
Raikonai tilted his head at this creature. Was he really a manling? Perhaps he was older than the rest.
"Greetings, Manling. I am Raikonai. I take it you're some sort of warrior?"
You walk up to the man in heavy armor and greet him.
"'Manling'? That is seriously disrespectful, Dragonling." He says, in a slightly lecturing way. His accent is weird ((russian-like)), unlike anyone else's accent.
"Yes, I am a warrior. My name is Dostricht, I am the captain of guard of this city, and captain of 5th Western Alliance army. What do you want?" He queries.
'Hmm... If I were to want to use it, I'd have to be very careful...'
Immediately turn to the life page.
Life magic:
Life magic is the controlling of various positive life forces. As Life magic is controlling of the positive life force, while Death magic is the controlling of the negative death force, they are *nearly* polar opposites. Life magic is also often referred to as 'healing' magic due to it's large amounts of healing spells, but that's not a good name as healing is only part of the whole. Life magic cannot hurt the living in any way, but it ruins the undead.
The history of Life magic is calm one. Besides the occasional miracle healer, not many famous mages have made their way into history. Perhaps the most famous, is Iloli Annitoni, who managed to actually resurrect someone with just life magic shortly after they had died. A feat not repeated since.
