A Dark Age Dawns... (Please read warning in 1st post)

"No." Ulkna immediately replied without hesitation. "I know what you are trying to do, boy. Those slaves are MY property. And if you aren't careful, YOU'LL end up a slave." He stood up, glaring at Colum. "Why would you want a slave anyway? You couldn't - you don't have the authority." He said smugly.

"Since when did someone have to have athority to own something?", wondered Colum.

"It just occured to me, some of those slaves have no idea what they are doing." said Colum, trying to to be specific and give away the fact that he wanted a particular dragon, "they are no good at blacksmithing and too scrawny to be any use as means of cargo transport." He licked his lips nervisly, knowing that how he phrased his sentence would decyde the fate of Zeel, then thought, "what does that matter to me? I'm not fighting for my freedom, don't really matter if I lose, I still keep my gold, my life, my freedom, and possabily gain a stable souce of gold..."

"If you would be willing to part with a single slave or so, for a fair price of corse, I could put them to a much better use," he paused, thinking that saying the next line would be a mistake, pushing his boundries, "preforming and reconosince in your name or even a small theft or assassination would go much smoother with an obdent steed." Finished Colum.

"If it diddn't work, I'm shure someone else would be willing to sell a dragon... or maybe a nice dragonwing cloak..." thought Colum, awaiting the dragon's reply.

Colum stood stock still, not in defyance, but in sheer terror, the kind of terror where your mind goes into denial, and you body shock. His cheecks looked like black parchment, and his eyes were blank and staring. After a few seconds of looking like a statue, Colum managed to come to his scenses enought cry out to the dragons back, "Training!"

Nightfall · Dec 09, 2009 9:09 PM

Ulkna stopped and turned his head, but not his body. "...What?" He scowled and turned to face Colum. "You are starting to get on my nerves boy!" He snarled. "You have not given me a straight answer about that yet, so I'll ask you again. Are you or are you not joining my army? If yes, good, I'll explain more about it. If not, get lost and stop wasting my time."

Colum was gripped by a mix of fear and resentment. "That fool dragon, that dumb*bleep* Zeel. I ask about him and get my head chopped off!," though Colum, anger creeping into his mind to mingle with fear and resentment. "And after all the trouble, I still get a "no"... danmed dragon."

The flood of anger spawned by his blaming of Zeel and the fear inspired by Ulkna made Colum's blood move faster though this body. His hand covered his eyes to give him a moment of sanctary, a moment of peace from the scowling dark dragon before him. A feeling of relative calm overtook Colum.

Faly took a deep breath, lowered his hand and looked the dragon in the eyes (ignoring the mind numbing sensation). "My answer has not been givven. I don't relish the idea of collitting to an unknown cause.", spoke Faly, keeping his tone even and paced, trying to sound objective and passive, "If I am assuming correctly, you prefer not to make that same fool mistake of commiting to something you may not support. That is where I stand. So, before I give my word and agree to work in your name, I would like to know what that intails." Faly, looked down and to his left, scratched his nose, and continued, "Will I be a rank and file grunt on the front line? Will I work reconosince, will I work in troop dicipline, will I end up being a cook, ect ect, you get the point.", ended Faly, with the faintest ghost of smile twitching across the corner of his lips.

Faly was swept off his feet by the rush of the dragon. Sliding on his back, Faly looked up to see a dragon, a flimilar dragon. "The one who threw my arrow back at me", thought Faly, a bolt of rage striking his heart.

Getting to his feet, Faly dashed to the pillars supporting the high stained glass roof. Knowing that he would never be able to simply jump or fly to the roof, the young man did the next best thing, he climbed. Makeing three quick verticle steps upon one pillar, the man kicked off the support colum. He felt his chest press against the cool marble, making another three fast verticle steps Faly managed to grab the ledge of the roof an pull himslef up.

Faly saw a flashing glint of steel as it carved it's pather though the evening sky. The blade ran a corse that split the side of the great dark dragon that was willing to recrut Faly.

As the blage gouged out chunks of dragon flesh, the beast in question had began his charge. With this sudden applcation of pain, the dragon made a terrable screach of pain and began decending...off the tower.

"MY MONEY!", screamed Faly, leaping after the dragon. This, oddly enough, was not the first time Faly had found himself leaping off a very high building. Useing what he had learned from his many expaditions into the world of free-falling, Faly leaned so to ude the falling dark dragon as a wing shield to increase his fall speed. After a moment of praying that he would not be inpaled upon any of the dragons spikes, Faly landed on the falling dragon. Acting quickly, Faly unferled one of the wings that had been caught under the beast and held there by mere wind resistence. Next order of buissness was either making shure the dragon survived that fall, or he did. The choice was ovious.

Faly pushed off the dragon (whos falling rate dropped signifantly due to the wings acting as an air guard) and undid his cloak. Quickly looping it around his fist, Faly concuted a makehift parashute. Knowing the fall would kill him if he landed flat, roughly 10 feet from the ground Faly deflated his parashute. When his feet hit the ground, they had already left them again. Faly attempted to distribute the falling force though a series of rapid backward rolls (this was higly effective apart from making him very dizzy).

Faly pressed his index and middle finger against the dragon's neck, "I can't feel a pulse...may have something to do with him being a diffret creature from me, but he is still warm," thought Faly. He held his hand close to Ulkna's nose and felt a slight and gentle stream of warm air. "He's breathing." thought Faly, wondering if he should finished the dragon off here and now.

"Ahhhh, that's a bit of a doozy." muttered Faly, examining the gash in Ulkna's flank. It was a long, wide and deep cut (at least, deep by Faly the human standards). thanks to the fall it had now been irratated and coated with dirt, grime and pus. "This mess is gonna be one hell-of-a infection..." Faly trailed off.

Moving with an air of purpose, Faly doused a portion of the wound with a spash of water from his hip flask. The water washed away the dirt to show a gathering of nasty looking stones embedded in the flesh. Flicking out one of his two remaining knives, Faly used the blade to dig out the stones. Faly continued this process of cleaning the wound, occasionally avoiding Ulkna's lashing tail when a bit of pain flits across the dragon's face.
