Dragon Island

I Cough again and hold my stomach " i really hate sea water "

-Etherlam returns to his cave and gathers wood in a pile, setting the doe down-
Finally
-Flames come from his hand and the wood catches fire as Etherlam starts to skin the doe-

*Holds ears and runs back to where the dragons are

"Oh goddess..."

-Etherlam leans against the cave wall as the doe slowly cooks over the flames-
One day. . .
-He hums gently-

*Reaches dragons and takes down the barrier into their cave, bringing in fruits

"Hello, again."

*Touches dragon on forehead*

"No, but he was a strange... Etherlam..."

-Etherlam crosses his legs, putting a lit pipe in his mouth, smoking slowly, trying to make the best of his dad-
Hmm. . . another slow day. . . except for this morning
-He sighs and takes a piece of the doe, eating slowly to enjoy the warm flavor-

"Oh, alright.... fine..." *As if speaking the the dragons*

"You wish to meet him as well?... but he ate MEAT!"

-He finishes his helping of the doe and spreads the rest with salt from the sea, preserving it for later-
Now for the rest of my day. . .
-He stands up and his blades slide free of their bracers and he starts slicing and cutting at the air, practicing to keep his moves in perfect harmony-

"Oh.. fine.."

*Leaves the cave and puts up barriers again, walking to Etherlam*

"Hello, Etherlam!"

-He stops what he's doing and once again looks to the girl-
Hello once again, Water Princess
-He turns back and begins to cut and slice the air-

*Sneezes*

"Eek. Lilies... Oh, and you may call me april."

-He nods slightly, barely hearing her-
And what can I do for you now. . .
-Etherlam high kicks the air and spins around pretending to put one blade through the gut of an imaginary enemy-

"The dragon of fire wishes to meet you."

I knew a dragon of fire before. . .
-He stops his training as he looks down, remembering his times with Crystal-
I don't know what happened to her. . .
-Etherlam looks back up and puts on passive face and keeps training again-
Why would a dragon want to meet me?

*Shrugs

"She senses you hate the water? She does as well. She and the dragon of water never cross paths."

-He looks to his fire-
What gives her that idea?
-He holds out his hand and absprbs the flames-

*Claps hands smiling*

"Oh, your a fire being as well! Crysty will love you!"

-His drow ears twitch-
Crysty. . .
-Etherlam's mind wanders in thought-
I will meet her.
-His blades slide back in the braces connected around his wrists-

"Joyous!"

*Turns and begins to walk through forest*

-Follows her slowly, checking his weapons-

*Soon reaches a river

"Hold on a moment, please."

*Spreads arms, and river leave a 2ft wide path, completely dry

"Please, hurry"

-Etherlam looks at the water but keeps following her, his eyes flicking back and forth-

*Water stays apart until he reaches other side, then slowly forms back together, and i simply jump across

"What fun, river jumping is..."

*Begins walking*

"Not to far now... Crysty's cave is.. here!"

*Takes down barrier and walks into the cave, alight with tortches*

-Slowly walks in, me heart racing-
Where is she?

"In the very back of the cave, protecting her pups.. er... children.."

*Calls out

"Dragon of fire, i have brought Etherlam, child of drow!... sorry, she refuses to meet anyone without their name, and race."
