As soon as Xefr places the helm on his head everything blacks
out and now he floats in space, beneath him he can see the
entire galaxy, while infront of him a gigantic luminescent
dragon stands holding a white sphere that seems to be the
galactic core. He directs his white eyes towards Xefr and talks
to him in an imposing otherworldy voice {{"A DARK QOATL OF
ZHE'ORAT IN SSI'HAR! So our cause continues. So our hope
remains. ...I am the Scion; raise your querry child."}}
[spoiler=The
Scion]

The words he show earlier in the clawmarks repeat inside Xefr's
head as if triggered by the aetherial dragon's presence.
Erixen remains stunned with his mouth wide open and his eyes
even more wide, somewhat shocked by all these information. He
shakes his head and tries to mumble a few words "I ..I really
didn't know of the powers of dragons. Yet you are right, we all
are mortals and have our inner demons. I hope that one day Xefr,
all of him, may find peace and unite. ...I know about traumas
first-hand."

Xefr was stunned, he didn't understand what was happening or
what to say. But he was not afraid. He was sure the voices had
some purpose. After a moment of silence, the Black Dragon
confidently spoke up, "Alright then Scion, tell me who Xefr was
the last time he lived."
The Shard seemed content, "Thank you, that's my hope as well. It
won't be easy, yet I'm sure it will come to be. But... Are you
willing to tell me what you know of trauma?"

"You were Qoatl as I was. You were V'oss as I was."
The luminescent dragon breathes millions of tiny stars and
suddenly the galaxy transforms into another one, similar to the
known galaxy but different.
"You may wonder why your kind is so powerful in mind and body,
blessed by powers and longevity that many would crave. It is no
mere chance, but our collective legacy that we entrusted on you,
so you, our sons and daughters, may succeed were we failed. You
are the scion of an ancient civilisation and species, older than
the dimension we created and you were born in."
Ancient dragons flying in the galaxy and bearing various relics
can be seen. Then a gigantic planet, with cities and many
dragons on it.
"The species you in your native tongue may call Dragons, were
once called the Qoatl, a species old as the stars fron a Galaxy
and dimension that no longer exists. You may not understand it
now, but you contain within your very soul and mind the
evolutionary process of billions of years."
Suddenly blurry winged humanoid figures can be seen in the
distance flying in millions and approaching for battle. Soon a
tremendous epic battle between these figures and dragons takes
place in the background. Dragons breathing fire, as the vile
creatures breathe a black wind.
"The last 100 thousand years of our existence our species came
upon evil. An evil greater and stronger than all we had
encountered before, for it wanted to erase existence itself. All
of V'oss fought this evil together in lasting battles for
millenia and failed to defeat it."
Images are shown of the dragon-planet being covered in flames,
forming a black hole and then exploding in a gigantic beam of
light, forming the core of the known Galaxy. Then five eggs
appear in the center, each one being placed in five places in
the new galaxy ..one being Heord and one being Shyr.
"V'oss was to be no more, so we created a new V'oss and burried
the last five eggs in it. Hoping that our species could survive,
if not in memory, then in flesh.
Thousand other species had not that chance and we regret our
treason to not stand besides them and die along with them and
our universe, but we were only mortals; a curse and a blessing.
So we distorted the mortal realm in hope that we could evade
death; this distortion is your new home, the species you have
encountered and even yourself. However, being a distortion, it
had side-effects -one of them being your own species- and it
only prolonged the waiting until the forces of the dark angels
reemerge and destroy life, once and for all."
[spoiler=The image of a giant harpy sleeping in the distance
appears]
HTML https://s32.postimg.org/x7vw6avv9/haroth_auction_fallen_queen_closed_by_aivoma.png[/spoiler]<br
/> ..it seems more real than the rest of the images, as if it is
a
window to reality.
"It is up to you and others you may gather to defend this new
home, so it may gain a natural death in contrast to its
unnatural birth, as V'oss had a natural birth, yet an unnatural
death ...thus completing the circle and bringing balance to the
cosmos, so that we may rest and you may live and die as a
mortal.
I am certain that you may have answers child, and I will be
pleased to help you understand."
---
Back in reality...
Erixen seems reluctant to answer, he grabs the cigar that had
fallen from his mouth and dries to smoke, but decides against it
and throws it away.. "I saw a lot of death ..I saw my friends
maimed as I was lying down ready to die. I saw my first love
being crushed by enemy boots. ...I failed to die and I'm
cursed with living bearing their images forever." The ambitious
and proud explorer now seems to look in the distant, his eyes
seemingly soulless.

Xefr just stood there, dumbfounded, for about a minute. It took
awhile for it all to process in his head, but once it did,
questions and ideas started to appear in his head. Eventually,
the black drake was able to stammer out some words, "I.... I
suppose I have only two questions of prominence. How do you
expect me to stop what you couldn't? And how do I return to my
reality?"
The Shard's eyes filled with sympathy, "Ah... Captain, I
understand you perfectly." The Shards own eyes turn to the
skies, "I've felt it a hundred times, and thousands more times
forgotten. That feeling of helplessness, and the following guilt
of it all... I know. Every part of me and every Shard knows. But
we march on. For the only way to venerate those who have fallen
is to live the lives that they couldn't, to stand up and pick up
the pieces. Those lost to death must never be forgotten, but
hope must never die. For we are not alone in our grief, and not
all have the courage or strength to go on. Thus, we must give it
to them, and work towards a universe where it will never happen
again..."

The aetherial dragon extends his wings that seem to be endless..
"And I shall answer. You will succeed by not repeating the same
mistakes our selfish species did in the past. We fought for
ourselves and ourselves only, this led us to make hasty
decisions and not see the wider picture. We defended our lives
with all of our strength, psionic and mundane alike, when we had
to attack merely with our wit; when we understood this it was
already too late, as the Sky Warriors of the Dark Ilai were even
more persuaded to accomplish their cause due to our actions.
...in order to defeat the harbringers you have to make them
understand by attacking the one who influences all, their only
weak spot of their being; their Wingless' Mind! To do so though,
you will have to master your mental strength and make certain
within you the will to accomplish this mission. However, rest
assured that we will not let you defenceless in the oncoming
battle, for this we trust on you our last great weapon that we
never managed to use ..the "pacifier of soul'" the scion bring
out of his body a white orb and places it with his paw within
the black drake's lungs. "This is the greatest weapon of all,
for it destroys the need for all other weapons ..however to use
it, you'll have to learn serenity and pacify your own troubled
soul first. It may work against only the Wingless."
The scion lowers his head and talks in a less imposing voice
"...I know we ask too much from a mere mortal, my child. But
this cause and conflict must reach a conclusion, for even if we
do not care yet for our own lives we must give the sentient
peoples of the universe what was once taken away from them, and
may be taken from many more ..the ability to choose for their
own lives' course without interference."
He suddenly changes tone "As for your second querry.. ..you
only have to close your eyes, realise where you truly are and
return."
-
Erixen shows a small smile and looks at the shard while talking
with a calm voice.. "You're right Shard... Memories make one
forget the present ..and the present is more alive and true
than any memory; I have a loving wife, annoying relatives and a
beautiful daughter. Perhaps, as I am lost in the past I forgot
to cherish what I have now over what I've lost ...thanks Zhohax
Valx." he closes up to the shard and places his hand-claw on the
shard's chest.

Xefr's head was filled with conflicting thoughts and flat out
confusion. One sentence in particular stood out to him,
"...you'll have to learn serenity and pacify your own troubled
soul first." His mind didn't know what to think about that, as
Xefr abandoned the idea of achieving such a thing long ago. He
didn't know what to do, and had no words. And so, he closed his
eyes, and saw himself back in the room, wearing the
skull-helmet.
-
The Shard's chest materialized just in time for Erixen's
hand-claw. Looking down at the Ghashyr, the energy dragon made a
smile of his own, "Heh, you're welcome little Ghashyr. You are
welcome." The Shard suddenly yawned, very loudly. "I'm quite
tired... Haven't slept in ages."

Xefr is now back on the room, the psionic aura seems to have
disappeared as have the voices. Rysannox is in the exact same
position as he was when Xefr put the helmet on, he approaches
the black drake with an anxious smile on his face "So, does it
work? Do you see anything?"
-
Erixen smiled "Well, I guess you deserve it then ...I'll be
sitting right here next to you if you need anything."
#Post#: 1066--------------------------------------------------
Re: Xefr's Adventures: The grey meatbags

---------------------------------------------------------
Xefr calmly placed the Helmet back on the ground, and turned
back towards Rysannox, "It works, and there certainly was
something. Saw a bit of a vision, but I couldn't really make it
out. Nothing too important in itself, but I believe we should
certainly take a look at sites similar to this one, and perhaps
all will become clear. And then... I will have to investigate
those 5 stars, I suspect they have a much greater meaning. But,
I think I'm quite exhausted for now, it's been a long day and
the work of investigating this room should be left to the
archaeologists. If it isn't too much trouble, I wish to take a
rest. I can do it right here, so you could wake me up if I'm
needed."
-
The Shard yawned again, and laid down, "Yeah... I do deserve a
bit of sle..." The Shard cut off as his eyes closed, and his
spectral wings curled up. He became notably more transparent as
he slept.

Rysannox bows his head "Of course! You may rest. I will take
care of everything from here. This discovery will be helpful in
the bonding of our species ..I think"
Xefr can feel a soothing aura around him, and a small vibe
within him as if he really had the orb within his lungs...
In his dreams the aetherial dragon re-appears {"I did not manage
to ask you child, so I have to before you leave ...do you
require guidance?"}
As the shard sleeps the image of the young black drake from
earlier re-appears, only now she seems older and not in agony,
but sleeping happily in a peculiar place with big Ants around
her, the surroundings fade away and everything turns a bright
white. She wakes up, tilting her head to the right and standing
up she asks slightly annoyed and confused the shard, whom seems
to be materialised in his dreams "Who is black lizard? Why
disturb Re'Ni sleep? You are not memory!"

Dream Xefr responded calmly, "What do you mean by guidance?
But... I suppose any help would be nice." However, as he spoke,
he rose one claw to his neck, unsure about the orb.
-
The Shard dozily lifted his head, "Whaa...?" As he stood up, he
noticed his material body, causing him to be just as confused as
Re'Ni. After taking note of his surroundings, he registered the
other dragon's presence, "Who are you...?" But then, the Shard's
expression changed to that of fear. Suddenly he shielded his
eyes with his wings, and started yelling, "I remember you! From
that damn... tomb! What do you want!? Why can't you ghosts leave
me alone?! I haven't done anything to you, just let me sleep!"
