Master Of None

”Well, before you and Ignus begin a battle of arrogant flames, let us move on to other matters.” Current saw that Ignus’s anger had been triggered by Walker’s words. He didn’t want them to fight right there in the court since it had happened before. But Terron did appear very amused every time that Walker pushed against Ignus. ”The villages have been small and expanding for some time. We need to go to new peaks but we can not do so with those wyverns moving in from across the waters. Ideas?” 

”Ugh, they are disgusting. They have a drop of dragon blood and believe themselves to be more than a dragon. Mindless monsters of murder and violence. They try and fly in to the air flow and disrupt it constantly.” Ventus had personally dealt with a few wyverns that went after her territory in the air. They had interrupted her seclusion which is considered the greatest insult to a dragon. 

”These wyverns, you said they are coming from across the oceans? Why not investigate the source and then move ahead with a plan? I’m sure that some wind elemental or light elemental dragons are ideal for scouting out the causes.” Walker had reformed the eternal orb throne form and sat upon it with a smug grin. He knew that he had thrown around some weight and that the keeper was backing him. Now he would be better able to put the other royals in check when it came to Genesis. But that didn’t mean he would be able to best understand and help with their real problems. He was just a small part of this meeting. The royal dragon court met for a multitude of reasons. 

”That is a matter in action as we speak. The wyverns apparently came from a dragon that went exploring many years ago. Instead of returning here they put down roots in the foreign mountains and bred with lesser beings creating wyverns and leaving themselves to rot in those mountains.” That was all Terron seemed to know but it disgusted him. To think that a dragon would give birth to an entire species of monster that tried to take over territory without need was horrific. 

”If they were the parent to an entire species of monster then they did not do too well as that parent if their offspring were not taught well enough to speak and understand others like the dragons they came from. It sounds similar to the rogue dragon issue but much worse since they do not have a direct cause.” This was Walker just thinking out loud but it was all too true. 

”They are indeed their own monsters now. We have seen the monsters gain their races recently. The goblins and grey haired spiders. They were interesting. For a moment I believed that the wyverns may have such a potential. But that was foolish of me before I went to meet one that came in to my territory.” Mordant shook his head. His black scales glistened through the shadows as he mourned the dragonkin lost to the wyvern when it invaded. The memory of many dragonkin fighting a monster that wasn’t even intimidated by the dragons that looked upon it. Instead, the wyvern had fought with all its anger against them to attempt to steal away the land. 

”It may be a good idea to prepare the villages with something that can defend them from the air. The cities have catapults and other such weapons on the walls. We may even have some that we can make that use the runes from the mage tower. The forest elves are very good at creating elemental arrows.” Walker knew that the potential for aerial attack would be something the dragonkin worried about. Having better defense might put them at ease. 

”We have such defenses at my village and the branch villages. But we do not have the elemental arrows from forest elves. If they are powerful we would be interested. I have not brought the young dragons to the dwarves for a trade in some time. They need their armors tuned. I can arrange some trades if the arrows are up to my quality. Ballista arrows that is.” Terron seemed to be putting aside his stubbornness so that he could focus on his people. It was something that Walker would not overlook. 

”I can promise they will be better than you expect. My party member, Gil, is an arcane marksman. He will personally oversee the creation of the ballista arrows for you. We will set up a range of elemental varieties for you to choose from. Being able to defend your village by any means is exactly what I would expect of a proper royal dragon.” The slight compliment was it missed by the others. Terron would use this against them as a show of how he had developed a respect with the new connection. Even if he did not readily agree to the changes that Walker wanted to make. But there were many years to work on those. 

”Isn’t the arcane marksman system specific to elves? You have an elf in your party as well?” Ignus lived near the fire elves and knew them to be wary of any other races. Even the dragons and elves did not interact, not that it was a surprise.

”No, he is human. But he is very close with the elves and is currently standing next to the queen of the elves. And I mean the queen of the elves. The one that will unite the elves again. So far the forest elves and the water elves have already reunited. The rock elves and fire elves will come in time.” It was just big announcement after announcement. The dragons were not sure how Walker and those he knew were able to influence the world so much so fast. They felt that they had begun to miss too much in their seclusion.
