Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
"Ah. I used to be a warrior, once upon a time. Age is a curse, dear. Avoid it at all costs." He chuckled again, but then took on a more serious tone. "The castle... do you know anything about what has happened there?"

"No, I didn't even know that it was here. Though I did hear rumours in the last village I was at that there was a castle that was brutally attacked, many innocents were slaughtered apparently."

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Busa shivered, although it was not cold. "I thought I heard screams in the night. I wasn't dreaming." He growled quietly, then quickened his pace slightly. "I'm Busa by the way."

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
The dragoness was curious, but didn't ask further, it was obviously a tender subject.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Dayn stared at the ivory chess pieces, placed on the stone board seemingly at random. If your pieces were scattered at random, that was a disadvantage, but if they only looked random, then that was an advantage. In pseudo-chaos, things could be concealed more effectively than in an obvious order. Finally, he tapped a knight and plucked it from its original position. Dayn liked knights. If there was one piece that was hard to predict, it was the knight. Finally, he repositioned it with a clack. He looked up at his opponent, who looked back at him. Dayn waved his hand gently, and his opponent mimicked him in perfect symmetry. Dayn pouted slightly, and rose from his chair. He padded around the board, and sat down on the other seat. Playing yourself was fine enough, but Dayn always found himself leaning a little towards one of the sides.
Confounded by his move, he resolved to return to the board later. Instead, a new board with new pieces. He left his chess room, and climbed a nearby spiral staircase. He walked into a new room, at the second floor of his citadel. Dayn hadn't bought the citadel of course, and he hadn't really fought for it. There had been one old man living here, and he was now under Dayn's employment. Nowadays, there were too many old buildings left unoccupied. Remnants of a past some had thought worth dying for, not understanding that their world would die if they did.
The room Dayn had entered was neatly laid out, with a well-stocked fireplace, and a small bookshelf. He nodded to his two favoured officers, who had been arguing about tactics, most likely. Dayn had found that rivalry produced very effective workers.
'Sir.' they barked in tandem, bringing a light smile to Dayn's face.
'So boys, any updates?'
'My lord, our sources indicate that practically all the kingdoms are expanding, bringing towns aplenty under their control,' said the first officer, Yorik.
The second one interrupted rudely, 'The South is currently weaker, so I would reccommend expanding there first.'
'Forgive him, my lord. The West is a better target, with its rich farmlands. Young Adyli knows not what he speaks of.'
The tactical discussion quickly degenerated into name-calling. When you wanted something done...
'Oh, do be quiet.' Dayn muttered as he pushed past to examine his specially-made model of the surrounding area, 'We target the kingdoms who have risked in over-stretching themselves. Have your "sources" gather information on, uhhh, those two colonies, and maybe this area, if you can manage it.'
He left them to squabble over who got the priviledge of obtaining this information, and set out to inspect his newly-gained lands in the near North-East.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Nithran, being tired of all the crying, decided it was time to leave. Some begged them to help them, so he killed them while stating 'There is your help'. Others dared not approach, lest they be incinerated. No one stopped him from leaving, so he wandered the outside woods, looking for another place to go. He occasinally shot at animals for his sadistic pleasure and to practice his fire spells. For some reason, he noticed the coin that flew around him to be glowing slightly when he shot fire at things. He wondered what it was doing, but didn't think for it for too long.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
At that time, a shining Dragon awakened up in a small cave near a mountain peak. It was pretty chilly. The soft sound of the cool winds blowing in and past the cavern was pretty to listen to. It gave him a feeling of freedom. And free he was. He stood up and slowly walked out of the cave, where he silently looked over the vast, curvy pieces of land, as if they were nailed all together to make a world full of mysteries. The Dragon smiled happily. His name was Silverwind. Such a wonderfull view. Another day begins and ends, but that same routine practically never gets boring.
...but darn, I'm way too early.
Silver always loved to fly at night, when most inhabitants sleep and most parts of the sky were not protected, so not dangerous. But it was day now. He sighed softly. Better get going, then. he thought as he took off and entered the world above the clouds.
As he flew swiftly through some clouds, looking for something to eat, he recognized the area. Shouldn't there be a castle over here? He was pretty sure of it. He circled a bit, high above the ruins. Strange...

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Lumistar glanced sideways as she heard a sound which sounded like flames being shot in the area. She glanced at Busa.
"Can you hear that? It sounds like fire..." Being a fire dragoness she knew fire all too well. "Shall we check it out?"

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Dayn heard a great deal of "news" from some of his new subjects. Lady Rumour was indeed mysterious. There couldn't be much to do around here, so people probably worked up strange stories in their minds as they toiled at whatever it was they did. Some minor baron a dozen or so miles away had blown up, from what you might hear. People slaughtered, seemingly for no good reason, and rat demons had descended from the sky and were coming from the rather drunk man who had prophesised their return. As dangerous as it was, Dayn would have to start dealing in, education. He gave a shiver. These things were necessary. Nevertheless, Dayn resolved to take a few of the new recruits out to scout out the land. Rumours tended to grow best on a patch of truth, as he said himself.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Busa stopped dead and listened. "I do hear it." He looked all around him cautiously. "Best to stay away. Come on, lets be quick. I'll check it out later." He said, walking quicker still.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Lumistar looked apalled that Busa would run away rather than go investigate, after all if it was whatever attacked the castle then maybe they could have a crack at it or persuade it to leave. However, one thing that having older parents had taught her was to respect your elders, so she swallowed her opinions and followed, albeit grudgingly.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Busa sensed that Lumistar was troubled, so he said, "I am not one to be cautious. I just fear that whoever it is will harm you." He had a soft spot for young females, not for the reasons you might imagine. "I will escort you to the cave and then go and investigate it myself. OK? Oh, in fact we are here now." He said as they reached a large rock formation near the mountains, in which a cave had been conveniently placed.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Nithran, however, being nearby, heard movement and shot at it with no other reason than to make it explode. He was so angry now, and couldn't control it. He felt some sort of urge to make everyone else suffer as well, and he went along with it. It wasn't new, so he didn't think twice about it.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Busa felt a surge of hot air nearby and saw a flash of light. "We're under attack!" He bellowed, pushing Lumistar towards the cave. "Go and shelter, I'll deal with this cretin." He growled, drawing his blade and facing the undergrowth. "Come on then. Show yourself. Don't be a coward."

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
"Ah, it is not a creature, but a dragon." Nithran said as he stumbled out of the woods in front of Busa. He didn't calm down, but didn't fire at him. One sudden move, though...

"Dragons are creatures my friend." Busa lowered his blade and faced the newcomer. He was wary. "Who are you? Why were you pursuing us?" He beckoned at Lumistar that it was (fairly) safe to come out.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Dayn had found his scouting party. Five young new recruits, eager to join up and prove their worth. Dayn made sure that his officers displayed an enjoyable life, so people vied for a chance to be one. Basic recruitment. He also selected one of his lower officers, one Lionel, who should be able to serve as a link between recruits and general.
Equipped and eager, he waited on the roof for Lionel to brief the recruits. Dayn wondered if it was safe to put his life in the hands of such inexperienced warriors, perhaps even agents from other kingdoms. He scoulded himself for such paranoia. It was merely an investigation, no known risk involved. 'That's the problem,' he thought, 'known risks I can deal with. It's the unknown ones I struggle with.'

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
"Are they? They are inferior to me, either way." He said as he laughed, "I wasn't following you, anyway. I came from the castle that blew up! The cries are unbareable; they need to shut up and move along!" He growled, "I killed a few that bothered me. Must I wear something that says 'don't pester me'? Oh, and you are tresspassing for me. I lived here until a few years ago."

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
"HOW DARE YOU!" Busa bellowed, pointing his staff in the dragon's face. "They have lost people whom they love! You clearly don't know how it feels to lose a loved one." He growled and lowered his staff. "A murderer too? You make me sick." He spat. "I'll go where I d@mn well want to go! I'll be leaving shortly I only stayed for the night. Now, I don't get on well with heartless killers, so get lost." He gave the dragon a short glare, then turned to walk inside the cave. He was shaking with rage.
"Your kind make me want to vomit." He repeated, trying to resist the urge to turn and attack.

Re: Darkness of Blood (A Dark RP )
Silver looked quietly from above. It's gone. Destroyed. Demolished. That castle sure looked stable. Why would it have been changed into ruins? Flying a bit lower, he could see the ruins clearly. It was no more. just one heap of stones now. Weird. I think this is going to be interesting. Better keep an eye on it.
Hmph. Something to eat would be nice. He thought as he saw a small group of eagles flying next to him. "You chose the wrong way, birdies." he said as he dived quickly and wounded a few with his claws. They fell down and down, but Silver caught them with ease. He was used to it, he had done it every day. He had developed his own technique to catch small flyers, and it seemed to work in an excellent way. Though he was good at hunting flyers, he often killed saome ground animals at night, which tasted different. Different, not better in any way. The group was just big enough te feed a Dragon like Silver.
After happily making some loops in the fresh breezes, he decided to head back to the ruins, as if he wanted to know more about what happened and who may had caused it. The flying never got tiring. Quite weird actually, since he got exhausted quickly when he attacked with magic. Maybe he developed skill for flying without getting tired, maybe it was just because he was an air Dragon, or maybe it was just normal for anyone. He didn't know.
