Re'Ni felt for the first time in years truly happy with Tec by
her side, she looked at him with a big smile on her face, though
her eyes seemed to indicate she wasn't really sure, or confident
about something.. probably because she was slowly moving her
tail and wing -this time purposedly- close to him {"Hehehe.
Well. Re'Ni not screw up completely yet either. That miracle!"}
she was about to do something, but decided to wait and go on
with the much less awkward discussion about the ants first {"Oh
Ants! Come from Stars like New Valxes. Ants seem good-intended!
Yes. ..but not sure. Ants mind-read like Valx too. Zagara
Ant-Queen - very strong, but troubled. Helped Re'Ni.. but Re'Ni
left Ants to see Valx from dream!"} she suddenly stopped and
with a somewhat awkward smile she moved closer to Tec, mumbling
her words rather awkwardly {"Now talk about Tec.. ..what Tec
like? Re'Ni told what like.."} her tail remains still really
close to his without however touching. Being anxious to hear the
response and without herself actually noticing it, she pulled
her tongue in and out several times and bit it softly.
-
Rysannox was looking around all ecstatic, while rubbing his
hands together. "Oh, I don't mind no Valorians, Midichlorians,
or even plain Orians! What is the oldest book about dragons that
you have? Or Perhaps a book about ancient alchemy would do! Oh,
or dragon literature! ..poetry even!"

Tec didn't seem to notice Re'Ni's movement at first, but became
aware when she suddenly paused. This caused his eyes to widen,
and he tried to stammer out a response, "Well... those Ants do
certainly sound interesting... though I must say I'm glad you
came, especially since I called you a ghost. How wrong I was..."
He awkwardly moved a bit closer to Re'Ni, "And what do I
like...? Well, I like the stars, and... I like your company as
well Re'Ni..." Nervously, he moved his tail, experimentally
making it come into contact with the female's, but just barely.
-
Xefr grinned, "Well, I doubt you'll find any draconic poetry
here, and if you do it will most likely be horrid to read. The
fine arts have never truly interested my kind, and thus we are
quite inexperienced when it comes to such things. though I'm
certain you can find ancient history books or old maps. Dragons
started keep records of past events somewhat early in our
development, so I would say that is our oldest pieces of
writing. Should be over in that section, over there." The drake
pointed a claw towards a bookshelf over to the left, which was
devoid of activity. It seemed that the Valorians didn't enjoy
history, or even nonfiction.

As Re'Ni felt Tec's tail she froze and her eyes just remained
staring at nothing in particular.. Realising what the nice
dragon next to her was saying, her emotionless facial expression
slowly turned into one with a wide smile and nearly teary
excited eyes... She tried to speak some words, but she really
didn't know what to say, so she instictively closed up to Tec
and as their snoots touched she gave him a big kiss, her tail
being now entangled with Tec's and shaking..
..her eyes seemed to glow with a subtle psionic white energy.
-
Rysannox raised his eyebrows "..really? Shyrite Dragons
composed a lot of poetry. Nevermind. History will do just fine!"
He happily walked over to the abandoned bookshelf and picked a
dusty old white book with a big clawmark on it, as he opened it
his eyes were widened and he started turning the pages "Hmmm,
Interesting! It seems this kind of writing is not similar to,
ehm, what I've studied ...Could you? I mean ..if you have
nothing better to do." He offered the open book to Xefr for him
to translate.
While waiting Xefr's response a misplaced magazine fell; it had
a Watrike maid polishing a spear in its cover (("Lizards..."))
Rysannox thought to himself and rolled his eyes.

Surprised by her sudden movements, the Shard didn't resist her.
For a few seconds after the kiss he was motionless, but then
returned it. There was no visibly marker, but Re'Ni could feel
a buildup in psionic power within Tec.
(OOC: Hm, so is where the timeskip happens and nature takes its
course?)
-
(OOC: Ah yes, ye old "Lusty Watrike Maid". It's a classic
really, no wonder it was in the history section.)
Xefr saw the magazine, and snorted. "Let me handle one thing
first..." The Drake turned his head towards one of the security
troopers, and spoke out. "Trooper! Could you please go remind
Guardian that while he can have his little magazines, he must
keep them in his room? We don't want Scout seeing any of that."
The Magazine then floated into the Valorian's hands, and with a
salute the trooper left the library.
With a sigh, the drake turned back around, "Now then... Alright,
I can read you some of this. Though not all of it, as we have to
get to Lupa some time this week. I can read you a chapter,
though you could also put it through the computers. Anyways, the
first three chapters, as I can see, are 'Dragons in the Wild',
followed by 'Beginning of Dragon Civilization', and then finally
by 'First Draconic Cities'. Any of those suit your fancy?"

Soon, the two shy dragons joined each other and became a black
winged mess.
...After a while the mess broke apart; the floor had a lot of
scratches and Re'Ni's crown was on the ground slightly broken.
Re'Ni remained silent while lying next to tec with their tails
still entangled, she seemed to have a big awkward smile on her
face. Not even daring to look at Tec she grabbed her crown from
the ground and wore it, while giving out a rather awkward laugh
{"Hahaha! Well.. ah! ...Re'Ni thinks relation just scaled up!
Ehm.."} she snorts and rolls her eyes at her own tremendously
lame pun, and just places her head next to Tec's with her eyes
closed and a true smile on her face.
-
(OOC: It is a classic ..and Guardian is a classy fellow I
reckon!)
Rysannox claps his hands in excitement, his eyes have a really
ambitious glimpse on them.. "Oh, I'd love to know your
civilisations begginings! I could then compare it to the
civilisation of the early Valxes ..it might prove fruitful to
revealing the mystery of the Sanctuary!"

Tec, although exhausted, manages to laugh as well, though the
pun seems to have gone over his head. Looking at Re'Ni, he
smiles. But then, he glances at the floor and curses in his
head. He would have to fix that all later, and explain why it
was there to Essentials when he asked, but not now. He covered
himself and Re'Ni in his wings, but he didn't feel like sleeping
right now. Instead, he just layed there, looking up to the
stars. Times were changing, and thus far Tec was enjoying it.
-
(OOC: Only the finest literature and booze for him.)
Xefr nods, and then looks more closely at the book. With his
mind, he flipped a few of the pages until he got to the
beginning of the chapter. "Here we are, I'll read it out to you.
Ahem, the first Golden Dragon communities formed out of
convenience of having more hunters or huntresses to scour an
area and to protect it from rivals. It was uncommon to see
buildings, as these communities generally gathered around large
cave systems, which were perfect for storing food and materials
in. The caves chosen were generally in the sides of mountains,
giving the winged dragons an advantage over grounded feral
competition. These communities were generally lead by one Dragon
who proved themselves as the strongest, and had the duty of
protecting the entire group as well as marking out good hunting
sites. Tools weren't often used, but sometimes the Dragons mined
out more of the caverns that they made their homes in, usually
for the reason of having additional space for the collective
hoard. In these early days, conflict was not common between
these newly founded tribes. However, the more solitary dragons
sometimes carried out raids, and thus battles between these
powerful individuals and the more numerous communities ended up
being a fact of life. But when tribes did form in areas lacking
in mountains, farming was adopted. Though that usually meant the
breeding and subsequent harvesting of domesticated animals,
there were tribes who did do it in the more traditional sense
with planting crops, though this was uncommon due to the
draconic preference for meat. The discovery of fire and its uses
was a very small event in dragon history, as unlike most other
sapient species, dragons have a natural affinity for fire and
already knew its uses. Raw meat was rarely eaten because of
this, and draconic technological development happened quite
quickly. It did not take long for the idea of 'outside caves',
or cities, to pop up in the minds of the more progressive
tribes." Xefr then sighed, and paused.
He then looked back at Rysannox, "There is a little more, but I
don't think early sexual relationships or farming methods are
that interesting for anybody not in a history class."

Re'Ni while falling asleep in Tec's embrace felt that something
beautiful as the stars above begun.. if it is to succeed and
give hope and a cause to both troubled dragons it is yet to be
seen, but for now both seem more calm and hopeful than ever
before.
For the first time Re'Ni's dreams do not feature her alone, or
in perplexed confusing situations ..but simply show her and Tec
flying in the stars.
-
Rysannox looks at Xefr as he narrates, his hand-claws are
crossed and his eyes while looking at Xefr seem to be travelling
and making up images of these 'Golden Dragons' ..as Xefr
finishes, Rysannox shakes his head a bit and starts stroking his
beard trying to think "Interesting, extremely interesting! It
seems Shyrite and Heordite Dragons had the exact shame history
development up until the Ghashyr met the Dragons in the Red
Mountains! From then on the collective of Shyrite Draconic
cultures would become nomadic herders, with cultivation being
used only in the desert as a mean to create technical oases the
would hold grass and water for their herds ..shyrite dragons
also held fire in a greater regard, since it kept wild animals
away from their herds at night as they slept. ...ehm, no I'm
not interested in how dragons consumated early in their history,
Heh! If I need to know I'll ask Myrsa! But.." suddenly a
thought crosses his mind "Does it mention any marriage rituals?
..any 'bonding of the fireborn' perhaps?"

Tec himself was unsure of the future, but he really didn't mind.
He was going to face it, and hopefully Re'Ni would be at his
side through the whole thing. And so, while he did not sleep, he
peacefully watched the stars, and would remain that way until
Re'Ni awoke... Or until somebody decided to go see what all the
noise was about. Tec was unsure about what he would do in that
case, but he knew that his stupid smile wouldn't die anytime
soon.
-
Xefr looked back at the book, and grunted, "I'm afraid that's
where the differences begin. Because unless 'Bonding' on Shyr
means the leader of the tribe seeing how many of the opposite
gender they can take before getting tired, then we have reached
a change. Marriage rituals didn't begin until a little bit after
the first draconic city-states popped up, and the idea of royal
families was going around. Though I'm also unsure what your
Talmyr has to do with dragon mating..." Considering the confused
look in the old drake's eyes, the joke had entirely flown over
his head and into the next room.

After a couple of hours, Re'Ni woke up, but since she was not
being used to sleeping alongside other people she tried
stretching her wings; for a few seconds her mind was utterly
confused why she couldn't, but soon she remembered, prompting
her to give a big smile to Tec while looking at him with sleepy
eyes.. {"Heh! Fake-death nice...mmm, need to stretch. Not used
to Tec ...will do in future though!"} She licks Tec's cheek and
crawls out of his embrace, extending her wings and tail while
yawning ..Re'Ni then turns back to Tec with a clearly curious
and somewhat suspicious look {"Hmmmm. If Re'Ni and Tec Bond then
Tec needs tell of self. Re'Ni feels Tec good and likes Re'Ni,
and this enough ..but Re'Ni like to know. ...And then eat -
Re'Ni hungry like Laor!"}
(Laor: The big cat of Shyr, the equivalent of a lion)
-
Rysannox raises his eybrow and taps his claws on his leg "Yes,
truly different ...Shyrite Dragon Tribes only married Dragons of
other tribes, during a religious festival known as the Bonding
of the Fireborn and the bonding was usually forever, both the
female and the male had the right to have a Tzi'Kha, a
'secondary' wife or husband, but not harems ..also they never
had cities, or any kings either, the oldest dragon would lead
the tribe; All dragons however paid respects to the Atzel Tribe
...natural black dragons. As for my Talmyr ..well, she did tell
you that her ancestor mated with a dragoness, so... well,
nevermind; We must be closing to Lupa by now, I haven't been
there ever since my father dragged us along in his pilgrimage
there."
The ship is now reaching the small serene Monastic world of
Lupa.. from space one can notice a rather light and comforting
combination of faint green tints on the continents and shiny
bodies of water surrounding them ..the faintness is probably a
result of the far-away white star of Lupa and the thick fog of
the planet, but something seems peculiar as many of the
mountainranges seem to be luminescent and reflecting peculiar
white light waves.

Tec moves to the side a bit, to give Re'Ni a little room. Doing
some stretches of his own, he then turned back to the female.
Tec still had a smile on his face, and nodded, "Alright, that
makes sense. And I'm quite hungry as well, how about we eat and
talk at the same time? The mess hall should be empty at this
time, so it would be private as well. I'm not really sure where
to start with myself, so you can ask questions and I'll see
where it goes. Come on, just this way. And don't be afraid to
talk along the way, would make the monotony of the hallways more
bearable." He then walked towards the door, with a little more
spring in his step.
-
Xefr seemed a bit embarrassed that he forgot, "Ah... Yes, She
did mention that. I suppose I blotted it from my memory, made
strange images in my head. Either way, yes, Lupa should be
close. Which means we should be prepare to be sent to the
surface. I suppose this means I should grab the Shards..." Then,
Xefr felt a large buildup of Psionic energy, and then the
release shortly after. He recognized the energy as belonging to
Tec, which could mean two things. And considering that an
explosion couldn't be heard in the distance, it could only mean
one other thing. "And it seems that Tech has become unavailable.
I'll call another for assistance, and I suspect he will be more
useful. Now then Rysannox, is there anything I should know
before we go visit the monasteries?"
The Ship placed itself in orbit of the planet, ready to
transport its people to the surface, or receive any
transmissions if necessary.
