"its alright, if I was in your peoples position I would find out if there were any fire dragons nearby and if one so did happen to nest nearby, bribe it. Dragons are smart and intelligent but one thing they enjoy and love more then anything is the shiny little objects in ones purse or jewels. Perhaps such a bribe would be enough to keep it away if you offer it a good enough amount." He then smirked moving his hand from his neck and back on to the hilt of his blade. "Then perhaps extort its strength as protection for your own people. However, extorting a dragon would be most difficult seeing as their brains are way too large to be fooled." He never witnessed such success before seeing his job was mostly to fight off invaders or bandits. Bribing dragons and conversing with them was someone else's job. He then looked back and noticed they had a good pace going for the village was a good distance away and as he turned his head back forward he took a deep breathe and let it out. "You know, you appearing is actually a blessing for me. I don't mind doing chores but the warrior inside me would rather roam the country side fighting all that challenged me or just simply roaming the country side. Battle doesn't really have to occur, I would be completely satisfied with inhaling the scent of what this world has to offer.

As the group moved on and listened to Kyoto's constant interruptions they would come upon a sight that not many ever got to see. The road as well as the grass surrounding it was littered with bodies and blood. Kyoto stopped and observed the scene and focused on the surroundings. What he noticed right away was the condition of the bodies. Some were charred , and from the scraps laying about he figured some were even eaten. Others were simply torn and laid about, he looked for clues as to what could have done this, he wasn't to concerned about the people who where murdered. Just by looking at them he knew they were outlaws, bandits, marauders, whatever they were they got wind of the great cycle called karma. They murdered, raped, and stole from people for a living. It was only natural for them to meet their end eventually. For these people it was at the hands of a predator that easily over took them. What he couldn't find was regular prints from a beast but marks on the ground from where something slithered. He honestly was a little confused and wondered if perhaps a serpentine dragon had encountered these bandits. The problem with that is he thought they were mostly aquatic. "Let's not stick around here,... in case whatever did this comes back for seconds." He said. He was eager for battle but not against something like a serpentine dragon.
Alduin grinned as he finished off the bronze dragon and then he pointed his head towards the city and noticed the white sails of the elven boats. His orders were to destroy the elven city, that did not mean any pursuit of escapees. So until Eliphas gave him specific orders to go after them he would continue his onslaught of the dagger eared people. He hated their kind just as much as anything else without scales. With a quick gust of dust and wind from the flap of his wings he was back in the air. He began to circle the city and attack anything that remained. He did not discriminate between adult or child.
Kyoto scratched his head as everyone talked about their abilities and the like. All he had was his sword. Without it he was just a regular human, so he wasn't special like the others. It made him feel a little left out really. Nova, gifted with the magical prowes of her kin. Cassandra, gifted with two abilites he had seen so far, the fairy fire and the darkness globe, plus her hereditary background left her with skills that could easily dwarf his. Hotaru, Ryung, and Valken all had demonic blood circulating through their veins. Even with Hotaru being half demon, she still could over power him with a single swing of her staff. Compared to them he was nothing but a mortal with a magical blade. He felt he would be of no use to these people but they still felt he had a place in all this. That thought comforted him a little.
Sure, if you can find something good that's based off of the land dragons from Escaflowne.
Holding up pretty good. Been trying to find a good image of a land dragon but not all that lucky. It's based of the land dragons from Escaflowne.
Kyoto shrugged and figured he could show her how to use the bow. It can be pretty handy in a tight spot. He took a long stretch and then began to move forward. He put himself in front sense he knew the best routes and places to stop. He would get her to the capital and alive. If he failed, the only path left would be on his sword. Samurai didn't take failure likely. As he walked he often would push his thumb up against his hilt slightly so the blade poked out about a centimeter or two and then let it fall back in place with a good "clink" sound. It was a simple fidget nothing more. "There is something I should mention as we walk. As you may know from perhaps rumors, dragons take up a good population in our country. They all come in different shapes and sizes as well as wether they are good or bad. One species I mentioned back there to the shogun." He said. "Well hinted at but anyways, its known as a land dragon. They have no wings but have thin skin between its legs and tail that with a good sprint and bound could cause them to glide. "

He waited for the words to sink in and then continued. "Will they be a threat? Perhaps and perhaps not. Depending on wether its hungry or not." He said. He then rubbed the back of his neck. "We also take a different approach to dragons as well. They are quite respected in our way of life ,so we avoid conflicts if we can. Sometimes we even offer livestock to them, just to appease them and earn their respect. Also each clan is marked by a dragon as well." He looked over and smiled. "Our dragon is named Sanguin, he is a serpitine dragon which represent the element water. Which seeing our village being by the water is understandable. Our Shogun chose him after giving witness to him in person. Well Sanguin chose us actually, he came upon him at a waterfall pouring into a large pool of water. Sanguin emerged from the water, his body sparkling from the water rushing off of its scales. From Yatsumaru's description of the event, it was quite breathe taking." He sounded rather proud of what he said too. "Some day I want to see the dragon myself, and witness his great beauty in person." He sighed and looked up. "Shuanna, do you have any dragons from where you come from?"
Alduin began to move towards Jauffre, step by step. Well more or less using the claws on his wings to pull himself forward as his legs did the walking. When he got to the dragons body he digged one of his claws on his wings into the opening of the torn wing. He laughed as he did this tormenting the Bronze dragon. "You foolish wyrm, you honestly thought you could best me? I am Alduin, the devour of souls. I will not be destroyed by some weakling like yourself. Now join your friend,.." He said and charged up his breathe weapon and released it. It was aimed right for Jauffre's head. Alduin went for the kill shot right off.
Kyoto sighed at the whole thing and figured there was some good reason behind Ishmael not being here. He half expected him to climb out of Valken's portal but he didn't. "He is a paladin remember... he can handle himself pretty good. He sure looked like he was against that Eliphas." He then tapped the hilt of his blade. "I don't even think Icingdeath here could have been a match against that thing. If that is our enemy perhaps Ishmael is the only one to defeat him."
Kyoto followed behind her as she voiced out orders to her kin as she cut the ropes that held the beautiful white swan boats in place. That's what they reminded him of, white swans. He saw her looking to the place she once called home and he sighed. Moving a hand to her shoulder. "Look you did all that you could, we at least saved some people." He said in a attempt to soothe her. He looked about the boat taking note of the survivors and noticed elf women and men among them. There were likely a good number of them on other boats as well. "With these survivors your kin won't die into the wind like those of many other races lost to the ages." He added.
Kyoto turned around looking into the shipyard and he saw a portal open on top of one of the boats. He watched as Valken climbed out of it and he nodded. He then looked back to Nova. "Well that didn't take him too long." He said and then began to back up into the building. "That means we get ourselves on one of those boats." He said and turned around moving towards one of the boats particularly the one that Valken had chosen.
Kyoto looked to her as she spoke about not being a fighter and he shrugged. "Giving you a bow isn't the brightest thing to do sense it does require a lot of skill to use. Luckily and hopefully you won't have to use it. We are samurai after all, we can handle anything that comes our way." He sighed a bit about her wearing a helmet ,mostly because it hid her face from view. However, it was something that he would just have to put up with. He did wish they had given her a sword though instead of a bow. Any idiot could wield a sword and she only would have to use it if the moment called for it. A bow was different though. It was something that required good training if you wanted the arrow to hit the target you were aiming at. "They should have given you a sword,.... " he said. Oh well for now perhaps he would get her one and then teach her the basics. Again she might not have to use it though. This trip could go uneventful for them but it wouldn't hurt to be prepared for anything.
Kyoto watched as Valken took off after Nova gave him instructions upon how to find the Queen and the Seers that would be with her. He then turned to look to the demons that were making a climb over the walls. Despite their reinforcements of pegasus riders the demons still made their advance. He pointed his sword towards them but did not leave Nova's side. He would only attack when he needed to. For right now the elves still put up a fight. "I hope Valken finds them fast, it wont take long before we are over run." He said.
Alduin felt a sudden blast of lightning as Jauffre the Bronze dragon began it's attack. Quickly Alduin stapped its wings into the ground using them as a shield while he charged up another blast from his main breathe weapon. These foolish dragons will learn their place. Alduin had dealt with their kind before and will soon put a end to their meddling. He hated these dragons who took the path of righteousness. Dragons were ment to rule over the weak not join sides with them. Pathetic lifeforms were not ment to be thought of as allies but food or slaves.
