Re'Ni licked her teeth and snoot with her tongue, while her eyes
where filled with anticipation to try this new plate.. {"Mmmmm.
Re'Ni interested! Tec said big and juicy? Sound good!"}
However as she looked around and noticed the large empty room,
some questions formed in her mind {"Seems tec and Re'Ni alone.
Only three Valxes in ship? Ship big enough for twenty.."}
-
The monks and nuns while looking intensely at the drakes beared
no ill-will, one of them even tried to approach Xefr's tail..
Rysannox noticed Xefr's uncomfortableness and made him a
reassuring hand signal that they would not be staying there
long..
The old monk smiled to his ears and clapped his hands upon
listening to Myst "We all have to think and it is good that you
have noticed the Light within, Myst my brother. But I could not
ignore that you spoke of 'force of nature' as it is something
descibed easily with mathematics. Even if what connects us is
indeed a force of nature.. ..how is it that nature itself is
not something divine? How is existence itself not a miracle and
a gift given to us by the Light? Without Azgor Tal, without
Light, the universe would not exist and everything would be
nothing ..a dark emptyness. For this we have to maintain the
Light, protect it and spread it ...as prophet Marlaach said,
enlightened be his name; 'The Light shall shine for all!'" The
old monk lays back and drinks some more from his goblet.
Rysannox stands up and in a rather unsure and shy tone adresses
his uncle.. "This visit was truly enlightening, dear uncle. But
it is a visit and I'm afraid many mundane tasks await us ahead
...I hope that you will talk about the good in these Valxes'
hearts to the High Mater in Shyr, when the time comes.."
The old monk seems a bit surprised and sad "You will already
leave? I see, we all are consumed by mundane tasks. I will talk
to the High Mater and the Church Episcopal Council regarding the
matter ..these Valxes bear no ill will, and that could help
overcome the Dark past ..for Azgor reigns in the present! I
will escort you out..."
Rysannox nods to Xefr to stand up.

Tec grinned, and his eyes flashed. Soon, two groups of droids
walked in with two giant plates, and placed them on the table.
On each plate there was a dead animal, which looked like a
buffalo but lacked horns and was much larger. They appeared to
be raw, but the droids also brought in large bottles of
different liquids and placed them beside each Fawri body. Tec
walked over to one, and unleashed his fire breath upon it,
roasting it. He calmly sat down, and looked back to Re'Ni,
"Well, you're right. About two dozen dragons could live in this
ship, but right now only 6 live here, but I suppose it's 7 now.
Anyways, the reason this room is empty is because we did spend
quite a while up in the observatory, and everybody else has
probably already eaten at the normal time. We're a little off
the schedule. And the regular crew also aren't here because they
eat in a different room entirely, the secondary Mess Hall.
That's why I said this would be private. Though... If you feel
like it, I think Scout is awake, and I could call him up here.
He's another dragon, though you'll find him quite childish."
-
Xefr stands up carefully, making sure not to hit the approaching
Ghashyr with his tail. He does a small bow of the head towards
the monk, "Thank you, sir. I look forward to the time where I
can learn more."
As Serynor spoke to Myst, the book opened once more the writing
continued to appear on the same page as before. And once the
monk finished, the tome closed. Myst stood up alongside his
companion, and looked back to the old monk, "Thank you for
sharing, sir monk. I will think more deeply on what you have
said, on my own time and into the future."

Re'Ni smiles and nods, while her hunger forces her eyes to be
stuck at the big juice animal {"Good! Re'Ni not mind dinner for
two with Tec. No take this bad - Re'Ni not comfortable with
crowd. Now if excuse Re'Ni..."} she just plunges her teeth and
claws upon the raw animal and grabs a big part of meat, munching
it in a rather unladylike manner. Her snoot all covered in
blood, she bears a very satisfied smile {"Mmmm! Really Good!
Re'Ni approves of Heord-food!"} she grabs one of the bottles
{"This Nyrn?"}
-
The old monk smiles and bows his head towards both dragons "It
was enlightening to meet both of you, brothers beneath Azgor
Tal. ..and Myst, sensing your interest in the Light, I would
suggest a prolonged visit in our monastery; everyone is welcome
here." He gets up and the group starts moving towards the gates.
The Ghashyr nun who tried to touch Xefr's tail finally managed
it and afterwards runs off giggling, leading to Serynor saying
something at her in Urvanyen that most certainly wasn't a
praise.
As they reach the gates Rysannox hugs his uncle, and then adds
in a calm and wishful voice "May Azgor Tal keep your paths
bright brothers!"

Tec's smile never wavered at Re'Ni's method of consumption. Most
of the Shards did that, except for Mystic, who always did
everything differently regardless. Tec shrugged at her question,
"Not sure what Nryn is, but if it's a type of wine then I
suppose it would be similar. And the bottles with the circles on
the labels have booze, normally only Guardian drinks that but I
like giving all the options." He then uses the claws on one of
his paws to rip out a large section of the animal, and then just
drops it in his mouth. While chewing, he continues with Psionic
speech, "So... Any more questions on your mind? Or would you
prefer we move the conversation over to your life?"
-
Xefr subtly smiled at the nun's giggling, happy somebody could
enjoyment at such the simple act of touching a tail, even if it
was the tail of a creature these people apparently thought
extinct. Speaking of which... he would have to catch Re'Ni alone
sometime and ask some questions. But he mentally shrugged, he
had other things to worry about right now.
At the exit, Xefr waved goodbye to Serynor, and said a final
meesage, "Goodbye, sir. This meeting was informative for us as
well. I wish you the best." Myst simply bowed his head. The
Black Drake waited for Rysannox to finish before teleporting the
three back to the ship.

Re'Ni drinks half of the beverage from the bottle {"Ahhhh!
Rejuvenating! Taste not like Nyrn, but not bad."} She takes a
second big bite, this time the portion was too big for her, but
after some determined chewing she managed to gulp it down. Upon
hearing Tec's last question her eyes darken a bit and she lowers
her head, leading to a big sigh {"Self guesses Tec must know
more than what food Re'Ni like devouring... but want to learn
of past life, or present?"} Her expression indicates a certain
discreet sense of fear and sadness.
-
Rysannox seemed to say something important to his uncle, to
which the old monk responded with a nod. Upon returning in the
Soul's Eclipse, Rysannox turned to Xefr with a wide smile on his
face "Well, this went better than expected. Perhaps I've been
too distrustful of my own species lately. ..My uncle will talk
to the High Mater of the Church when the time comes, and his
word matters quite a lot; We will have to worry less about an
aggressive stance from the Church of Light."

Tec ripped out another portion of meat before continuing,
"Well... I don't think the past is too important right now, and
I know just as well as the others on this ship that the time
already gone by is filled with pain. So I really just want to
know what you were doing before you showed up in my dreams.
Unless it's painful, because if that's the case then I don't
want anybody bringing out bad memories for my sake. Too many
problems have arisen from that before..."
-
The group had reappeared inside that same side-hanger, though
the two Valorian troopers were gone by now. The black drake
looked to Rysannox and grinned, "That's good. I'm sure that will
mean a lot less potential problems in the future. Now, any ideas
on where to head next? I'm still unfamiliar to your lands, so I
wouldn't have a clue." Myst was off to the side, reading his
book.

Re'Ni sighs again, but turns to Tec with a smile, and while she
speaks it is clear she is surrounded by uncertainty "Tec is good
Valx ..but Re'Ni not yet.. not ready for long past. Re'Ni will
speak of recent past though. Tec deserves at least that.." she
takes deep breath and continues {"Last days long-awaited miracle
..Re'Ni had long lost hope but Wise-Ant came - helped Re'Ni
leave dead home. Re'Ni saw good in ant. Saw potential. Told
Wise-Ant..."} Re'Ni suddenly stopped, her expression was frozen
from fear and her tail was shaking as she thought she could have
spilled out something important - part of her wanted to tell
everything, while the rest wanted to lie to someone that she
cared for and whom cared for her... she immediately got out of
it by shaking her head and continuing talking as if nothing had
happened {"...Re'Ni was ready leave for Ant-planet, but saw Tec
in dream - Self felt dream real ...and even if not, even if just
demons in head.. soul had to know. So returned. Re'Ni glad did
that..."} She moves closer to Tec and places her head near his
chest, trying to find comfort in him and away from her thoughts.
-
Rysannox kept smiling and bowed his head a little "...a lot less
potential problems indeed. I guess the last step is to make your
appearance infront of the people of Shyr ..Reunite two
brother-species ...at least from a Shyrite prespective." After
finishing talking, his smile had been replaced by a facial
expression filled with worries...

Tec pulled Re'Ni into a sort of hug with his paws, and touched
his head to hers, "I'm happy you did that as well, Re'Ni. To
think, if I hadn't taken that nap, we wouldn't have even spoken
to each other. Heh, the universe is a strange place. But, thank
you for telling me that, and not just for the compliment. You
can tell me the long-form edition whenever you're ready. There's
enough suffering in my life without forcing you to talk too
early."
-
Xefr's smile faded. He went into thought for a moment, and the
thinking expression remained on his face as he spoke, "Hm, that
is going to be more complicated than it sounds, isn't it? It
certainly wouldn't be a small, quick thing. And my own kind's
government back on Heord doesn't even know much of your empire
anyways, I haven't even gotten the chance to pass on the
agreement we talked about. Perhaps we should wait."

Re'Ni starts sobbing a little and letting out sudden awkward
laughs, she hadn't experienced such powerful feelings for as
long as she lived; it confused her and excited her at the same
time. After a few seconds her sobbing turns into outright
crying, her smile still in place while looking at Tec's yellow
eyes. She could not hide herself anymore, not from him..
{"Universe truly strange. Re'Ni thought never feel that, but..
Re'Ni loves Tec."} she takes off her necklace and places her
right paw on her deep scars, her claws making a perfect match
{"Demons in head: Much pain. Much anger. Much fear. Too much for
just one Valx"} she then takes Tec's paw with her left and
places it above her right paw that still touches her scars {"But
for two, nothing..."}
-
Rysannox nods in agreement and strokes his beard "Yes, you're
right; perhaps it is too early... we should not rush such
delicate things. I guess I will have to return back to Shyr then
and prepare the ground so when the time comes, the 'reunion'
will be easier for both sides."

Tec uses his free paw, the one not placed on Re'Ni's chest, to
take hold of Re'Ni's free paw. As she speaks, tears begin to
appear in his eyes as well, but they were tears of joy. Not once
before did he imagine himself in such a position, but it was a
welcome surprise. Still teary-eyed, Tec responded, "And Tec
loves Re'Ni... We'll face the demons together, both yours and
mine, and we will win. No matter how long it takes. That's a
promise" Then, he went silent, but with a smile on his face.
-
Xefr nodded, "Very well, in the meantime I shall attend to some
personal business. Of course, I will first drop you off on Shyr,
and when everything is set you can simply call upon me. I won't
stray too far, so I will most likely be able to respond quickly
unless something comes up. But I do hope you won't ask me to
deliver a speech when the time comes, I am no good at public
speaking and will simply embarrass myself."
