Re'Ni being quite surprised by the new visitor shrieked loudly
and threw the book at him, missing his head for a few inches.
After thinking what the purple-eyed shard told she calmed down a
bit ..but still discreetly forming a white energy ball with her
left paw in the case this was a trap. Her voice was cracking a
bit and her eyes seemed worried, even though she tried to smile
{"Sorry for book, but Valx crazy? Scared self to death! ...this
Re'Ni. ...Tec and Re'Ni bonded, so self stay here for long time
and must meet Coll and others. Ehm..."}
-
Caprima's was beaming with joy and hope upon brining the idea to
her mind, "[Oh, that would be beautiful, my child! I could
totally see myself teaching in here when the time comes, but we
still have a long and uncertain road infront of us to make such
plans. Anyway ...I sense me and Girmion will get along fine.
Perhaps he could help..."
Cui laughed and flied closer to Myst "No, I can fly wherever I
want ..It's simple really, I'm a resident of his soul; I am
sustained by it, that's why my scales are blue! ..so, if he
dies, so do I."

As the book pass his head, it suddenly was caught in a purple
energy, and slowly floated back into its normal place. Coll
smiled, "I don't blame you for that Re'Ni, so you're forgiven.
I've never been good at making my presence known, and that is
far from my first book thrown at my head because of it. I'm glad
to hear that you and Tec are getting along well. And I guess
we've met now, even if this wasn't the best way to perform a
meeting. Either way, it's nice to know that we have a new
passenger aboard the ship, and I hope that I can make up for
this in the future."
-
Xefr was pleased with this result, "I'm sure that you're right
about that, you and Girmion have similar characters. But you're
right, first we must handle the near future before we handle
that which is too far to predict."
Myst nodded towards Cui with understanding, "Then you are closer
to a Shard than I first thought. I too am linked to Xefr's
life-force, as are all the Shards. We may all be individuals
with our own thought and complete autonomy, but our origin lies
in that same body. All of our souls have a thread attached to
Xefr, and if his soul were extinguished it would only be seconds
before the rest of us fade. That is why we refuse to leave Xefr
on his own, he cannot die. The death of one Shard is far more
acceptable than the death of all in one blow... Ah, and it seems
we have arrived."
The Group had arrived near a large cave entrance, built into a
mountain. The entrance was held up by steel bars, and it was all
quite smooth. There was writing on the walls to each side of the
entrance, with hundreds of names in Draconic. Above the names on
both sides was the word "Graduates" in Draconic. The inside that
could be seen was a large hallway leading deeper in, with red
carpet on the floors and torches on the walls. The fires of
those torches was not normal, and actually blue, with traces of
psionic energy. Xefr approached the Cave Entrance and looked
around, before flashing his eyes. Turning back, the Old Drake
snorted with content, "Alright, Girmion should be arriving
sometime soon, I called him to meet us here. He won't be long."

Re'Ni, although still afraid and unsure, smiled a bit and curled
back on the bed {"Yes. Well Re'Ni hope make up for throwing book
in the future ...Self not good with people, so, ehm... glad to
meet more Tec friends - even if not show."} She lowered her
head, feeling rather awkward and suspicious.
-
Cui sighed and was unsure if she should explain further, but she
did nonetheless "..as for being a 'guardian spirit', that's
about right, but I wasn't always like that; I have many memories
of a real dragoness ..though I think this isn't the time to
talk about her. Anyway, let's hope this meeting won't bring Xery
down.." She looked up the sign "This is how you write? Heh, it
seems like primitive Qo'Jacuhal ..no offense!"
Upon arriving, Caprima looked around and started taking notes in
her mind for her own schoo "Hmmm, the energy torches seem a bit
luxurious for my taste ..but Qoatl always loved to lit-up their
places with flames, heh!" she turned to Xefr smiling "How're you
faring so far my child? ..if you're worried, I want you to tell
me; It's no use to keep it to yourself."

Coll's smile didn't waver, and he just nodded at her, "Nice to
hear. I think we'll get along just fine, and I'm assured
everybody else will feel the same. Even Guardian will open up
after a while. But I can see that I'm making you feel awkward,
and I think Tec is about to wake up, so that's my que to leave.
But just remember Re'Ni, since Tec cares for you, we Shards are
always here to help. So if there is ever any trouble, don't be
afraid to ask us to assist. But also remember..." The Shard's
gaze grew dark and serious, even if his smile was no different,
and his voice took on a deep tone, "That if you ever break Tec's
heart, we will gladly break you." Coll then returned to normal
and waved goodbye with his left paw, and then disappeared with
another flash of his purple eyes.
Perhaps only a second after Coll's exit, Tec's eyes started to
open. He raised his head from the bed and shook it a bit,
proceeding to look around the room. When he saw Re'Ni, he dozily
smiled. His voice was calm and a little tired as he spoke, "Hey
love, did I sleep in?"
-
Myst glanced at Xefr when Cui mentioned having the memories of a
real dragoness, but didn't pursue the subject. Instead he nodded
and added a simple comment, "Xefr likely came to Girmion for
multiple reasons. It may be that needs him, but also as
emotional support. He enjoys connecting with his old friends,
since they are the people who experienced many of his worst
memories alongside him." He then chuckled at Cui's jab at
Draconic writing, "Well, once our civilization learns how to
build universes, I'll make sure to suggest implementing your
style of writing instead. In the meantime, this primitive system
works for us simple dragons."
Xefr seemed somewhat unsure, but looked back to Caprima with a
slight smile, "The torches are actually part of Girmion's
lessons, I saw it myself. Teaching students to make fires that
never burn out, or something like that. He has hundreds of those
things, and places them around Heord for lighting as well. He's
sentimental like that. As for me... Well, I'm worried. I don't
know how I'm going to do this... How will he react? What do I
even say? It's just..."
The old drake was suddenly interrupted by the arrival of another
black dragon, who flew down from above and landed with a boom
and a loud laughter.
[spoiler=Girmion][center]

Girmion, another of the triple black dragons, seems a lot calmer
and serene in comparison to Xefr, especially since unlike Xefr
and his Shards Girmion's eyes do not glow, though they are still
yellow. The little gold band on his tail gives off a psionic
signature of his own, which feeds into Girmion's soul and
psionic strength.[/center]
[/spoiler]
The new Dragon jumps right next to and gives him a friendly hug,
before speaking out in a very loud yet still friendly voice,
"Xefr! I got your message! So you're finally ready to try huh?
That's good, and I'm here to help you every step of the way, and
because of that you aren't leaving until I'm satisfied!" Still
with a beaming smile, Girmion turned around to look at Caprima
and Cui, "Say, I don't recognize either of you." He points as
Cui, "You're certainly not a new Shard, even if you feel like
one, since you are female." Then he points to Caprima, "And I'm
quite sure I've never met your kind before. Who are you two? New
friends of Xefr coming to help him with the reconnection? If
that's the case, then you're all good in my book! Welcome to my
school."

Re'Ni responded with a soulless {"Self Knows.."} to Coll. The
black dragoness stayed staring at the wall, right where Coll was
before; she had not taken this peculiar visit and threat well...
her fear of herself, love for Tec and burning hatred and
suspicions for any possible threat were fighting inside her
mind. She remained silent for a few seconds, not responding to
Tec ..and when she turned her head, her eyes were pitch black,
and her voice calmer than ever.. {"Fire!"} she said and grabbed
Tec by his shoulders, looking directly in his eyes while smiling
{"Fire, love! ..All between shall burn! No, Coll not break Re'Ni
if self BURN Coll and Demon! No worries anymore!
HahahaHAHAHAha.. ha.."} her laugh slowly transforms into crying,
while her eyes turn into their normal almond and she starts
shaking, completely confused, fearful and ashamed...
[spoiler=You won't like her when she's angry!]

Cui laughed and waved her claw like a teacher at Myst, slightly
mimicking Caprima's voice "Well, let me give you some advice my
child! When you achieve this level of power, watch out not to
destroy your own universe." When she finished her sentence she
nodded as if she meant it seriously.
Caprima patted Xefr and was going to say something, but Girmion
made her turn around and face him as soon as he talked. She
smiled and joined her palms "It's no wonder you do not know of
my species, my child; They're rather insignificant. Anyway, this
is Caprima ...and I agree wholeheartily with what you said! We
won't leave until this old Qoatl here feels better."
Cui flew near Girmion and performed her signature draconic
wing-bow "And I'm Cui'Hoamal ...Xery's new assistant. The
answer to your question is complicated good sir, so let's just
say I'm a psionic being that met your friend by chance and
follows him around ever since."

Tec was supervised and somewhat afraid of Re'Ni's actions, and
that reflected in his eyes as he was simply stunned. However,
after a few seconds the words processed better in his mind, and
he knew what had happened while he slept. Tec went close to
Re'Ni, and hugged her close. While looking straight into her
eyes, he spoke in a calm whisper, "Nothing needs to burn Re'Ni.
Don't worry about the Demon or Coll, neither can touch you. Not
while I'm here next to you. Like you said before, together we
can handle any demon, be it in the form of Forbidden or Coll's
suspicion. Just don't think about them, and look at me. We can
endure anything and not be broken, but only if we do it
together. You got that? Or do I need to prove it to you?"
-
Girmion laughed loudly once more, still looking at Caprima as
his voice boomed out once more, "That's good to hear! With our
combined efforts, there is no way Xefr is getting out of it this
time!" The happy drake then turned to Cui, "An assistant eh?
Nice to hear that Xefr is finally expanding his crew. And I'll
take that answer for now, since I doubt we have the time to hear
the full story. But I do suggest thinking up a better summary,
you would sound like a stalker to somebody who couldn't feel
your connection with his soul. Regardless, you both seem like
good people, just what we need to get this done."
Finally, Myst spoke up, "Yes, yes. Now, I suggest we get to that
sooner rather than later." Girmion didn't seem offended, and
just smiled before responding, "Straight to the point as always
Myst. But I agree! Let's fly, this way!"
Girmion then took to the sky, flying towards an opening in the
mountain higher up. Myst sighed and gestured to Cui to follow
him as he went after the old teacher. Xefr however seemed
hesitant, and looked to Caprima, "Do you need assistance getting
up there? I can carry you if need be."

Re'Ni kept crying and shaking but nodded in agreement to what
Tec was saying ..while her mate's words calmed her, her
thoughts did not. As her crying came to an end, she started
talking again, now in a more calm and slightly apologetic tone
{"Yes, together overcome everything ...Just worried lot, and...
and overreacted at threat. ..but have to tell Tec something,
because Tec loves Re'Ni and Re'Ni loves Tec..."} her eyes darken
a bit and she gives out a heavy sigh {"Re'Ni sick ..very sick,
and sickness combined with strong mind-power, dangerous and
hurts soul - Makes fear self. Even if Tec make Re'Ni feel hope
and love ..after Coll visit, self worry if possible becoming
monster like Demon said."} the sad dragoness places her head
beneath Tec's {"Want Tec know self tries hard ..but do not know
when fear will stop. Hope soon, love."}
-
The capricorn chuckled a bit herself at Girmion's determination,
she was really glad that she would have some more help "Hehehe!
That's the spirit!" Cui shrugged while smiling, she looked at
Xefr for a moment then back at Girmion "Well, even if I was a
stalker, I assure you I'd be the benevolent and annoying kind,
not the creepy kind!" As the group is about to go she flies to
Xefr's shoulder "Okey, let's do this".
Caprima patted Xefr again and smiled "Thank you sweetie! ...I
can levitate, but I think it would be better if we kept a low
profile." With her last pat she sends a discreet psionic message
to the old black dragon {{"Don't worry, my child. You're not
alone in this."}}

Tec hugged her closer, trying to appear strong and hold back his
own tears at her sadness. So on the outside, he nodded and
touched his head to hers, responding with a calm voice, "If
you're sick Re'Ni, then I'll make sure that I cure you, even if
it's the last thing I do. And don't worry Re'Ni, as long as you
are trying, you are doing everything you can do. All wounds take
time to heal. And together we can make that fear go away as soon
as possible... But... just don't dwell on any threats Coll made
okay? He sees betrayal at every corner, no matter how
unlikely... Though you can damn well be sure that I'm going to
make him see past his stupid suspicions and see the same
gorgeous dragoness that I fell in love with. I'm counting on you
to help with that." Then, Tec smiled and added something in a
more happy tone, "...And we both know what's going to happen to
that demon downstairs one day. Like you said, we shouldn't be
fear him, he should be fearing us!"
-
Xefr nodded, "I suppose that's correct, now let us go." That
seemed to be his response to both of Caprima's statements. Xefr
then leaned down with the shoulder that Cui was not on, to allow
Caprima to climb aboard. Once she was on, the black dragon took
to the skies, flying up to a large opening in the mountain up
above which only seemed to be accessible through flight. The
inside was lit up by more of those torches, but otherwise it was
empty, except for Myst and Girmion that is.
The Old Teacher waved at Xefr when he landed, and walked up to
talk, "I called Dervis over for a 'student-instructor chat'.
Should get him alone, without his bodyguards. But of course
there will be some time until he arrives, though he was already
coming to Heord for another reason. And since we have this free
time..." Girmion then looked to Caprima, and spoke in a more
curious voice, "I can feel that you are not exactly natural, Ms.
Caprima. I cannot exactly pinpoint it, but you come off very
strange to my psionic senses. Are you willingly to explain?"
Myst was just stood off to the side, watching Xefr and Girmion
very carefully. He wanted to learn as much about this Dervis
before he arrived as possible, to try and put together what was
so important to Xefr about meeting him.

Re'Ni had stopped shaking and was now completely calm physically
in Tec's embrace, but her mind was still not ...that thing Tec
told about the 'Demon Downstairs' was just what the Ghashyr were
saying about her once, but what worried her the most was that
she feared it was possible for her to break Tec's heart like the
purple-eyed dragon said. She remained silent for a while trying
to ease her mind, then started muttering a few words while
placing her paw on Tec's chest {"Mhm, but Re'Ni first must deal
alone with Demon inside ..Coll said Break Re'Ni if Re'Ni break
Tec's heart, self panicked more not because fear Coll, but
because fear breaking Tec's heart.. ..voices ..thoughts
..emotions ..not always clear - sometimes violent.. this
sickness worse than any other; Sometimes not know what to
believe ..what reason and what madness. But know that love Tec
and can trust ..Re'Ni never hurt Tec, or self, or child
..never, in any way."} She moves her head back so she could look
clearly at Tec and gave him smile and a kiss.
-
Caprima petted Xefr's scales and jumped down, levitating a bit
before she landed to slow down her fall "That was nice! Brought
back memories.." she then turned, facing Girmion. She could not
hide everything from everyone it seems.. "Oh, I will explain
then - it is better that way, though perhaps I may sound like a
crazy old goat. You see my good Girmion, I didn't want to
unnerve you, so I concealed my soul energy ..the reason is that
it is very noticeable by psionics, since where I come from we
used positive feelings to maintain our psionic energy and you
could say that ..heh.. I love an entire universe." Cui chuckled
at the last part, but then immediately pretended she didn't
understand ..shrugging and supposedly looking confused.

Tec returned the kiss, and gazed back into Re'Ni's eyes, "Since
that's the case, that means you'll never have to worry about
breaking my heart. And don't fear Re'Ni, you just reminded me of
something. If you really are carrying our child... That also
means you are carrying a new future for both of us, a final
declaration of hope to bring light to the darkness and cure our
ailments. A little extra motivation not to hurt yourself any
time soon eh?" The Shard's smile grows as he finishes.
-
Myst noticed Cui's chuckle and following actions, but simply
rolled his eyes and didn't comment. Girmion glanced at her as
well, though his eyes were friendly and remained that way as he
looked back to Caprima, "Emotions power your psionics?
Interesting. I know of similar systems, though yours is clearly
different from what I can feel. But I won't press you any
further. My personal curiosity is not why we are here after
all..."
Myst suddenly interjected, "Speaking of why we are here... Care
to explain it to us Ess? We are here to help you get through
this, but that will quite difficult if only you and Girmion know
what's about to go down." Xefr sighed in response to this, but
raised his head and spoke, "I suppose... You're right Myst. Very
well, we are here because I wish to finally make amends to
another drake named Dervis, who I have wronged immensely. And
while only Girmion and my other friend Durazor knows this...
Dervis is my son, or at least he is Xefr's son. Dervis is the
child the True Xefr and Viol'ita gave birth to, only a year
before she died and the first shattering of Xefr's mind
occurred..."
