Roads to Travel (open)

[Alora]

The mountains were silent.  Yet in their silence the world sang its own song and the beat of the earth its rhythm and is so the world kept time to it.  They had a peace about them that the world outside didn't seem to comprehend.  It was in the mountains that Alora had chosen to make her home.  She felt even more alone in this current world than ever before in the passing years.  It didn't seem that any of the world understood the elements power or the voice that it carried through the wind and through the many songs of the animals that roamed the lands.  It was part of the reason she chose to isolate herself from the world.  but it was also the reason she chose to venture out.  It was now such a time that she decided to see if perhaps the world had taken on a different view from their past woes.  She always hoped that she would find someone that shared her views.  Someone who could be taught.  Some sign that there might be someone out there to communicate with. 

It was almost a dream that would never be.  Fading from her hopes as much as her memories of who she was had vanished from her.  But she knew she had to try, and while she liked the solitude it was nice to have some company as well.  And the potential to learn something was always a possibility as well.  As she readied her pack she decided to head west and see what changes had happened in the last couple hundred years.  She gathers up roots and berries she gleaned from the land and a couple gourds full of water and a change of clothes from her last venture.  She wondered how the style of clothing might have changed but it didnt matter.  oft times they would call her retro but they had no idea.  She shoulders her pack and changes forms to that of a wild horse and makes her way down through the mountain trails as the sun crested over the peaks

[Razvan]

A shadow fell over the land. A red-winged entity a dark being glided soundlessly over the trees that filled the flatlands below the mountains. Razvan, travelled by wing seemingly endlessly. He would probably circle the globe to restore the natural balance of things in fact. Nature could be cruel so it's herald was as well. He sought vengeance for all wicked acts committed against father and mother nature. He was the angel of secrets, nature's wrath,, Razvan. anyone travelling would notice, he seemed almost to be patrolling this region..

[Ashnarn]

It was from a cave a great beast stirred amongst her own forest of gemstones deep in the mountainside. The early morning light peeked into the cavern, illuminating the sea of colors embedded into the walls by the dragoness herself. One of the stones reflected the light onto her face, a glaring warm ray that eventually had her uncoil. Lifting her stocky frame she slowly made her way to out the the cliff face, stretched her fourteen foot wingspan and yawned. Ashnarn surveyed the land before her, her nostrils taking in the aroma of the wildflowers, fresh air, and most peculiarly a horse. The half frost dragon debated something to herself as she took off into the air; the iridescent of her scales played with the changing colors of the dawn as she glided easily over the tree tops. Staying lower to the ground she eventually sought out the equine, took in a breath, and as she passed overhead, Ashnarn emitted a harsh roar only to circle back around--in attempt to spook the mammal. It seemed she intended to have breakfast, not knowing truly what the horse was.

[Kita Darling]

What was Kita doing in the woods f some European country? Your guess is as good as hers. Still though she walks, her clothes and boots not meant for hiking. She had ended up here rather randomly, her tight skirt, and tank top ripped from the walk, but she couldn't figure out how she got here, so walking was her only choice. She blinks coming across a dragon, that was new... that was really new... a horse... and angel. Yep this was definitely a weird day for Kita. To say the least.

[Alora]

The day had started out nice, the sun shining warmly on her back, when suddenly a shadow passed overhead which caused her to slow down and glance up at what appeared to be an angel,  she watched the being as it passed by.  It was a marvel and wondered who it was the angel followed, but by her judgement it looked like someone who was watching over the land.  This made her smile inside until.... the woosh of wings and an ear splitting roar made her cringe and the dragon flying overhead did scare her.  But unlike a typical horse she watches the dragon, standing her ground until she knew exactly what was going on, if the beast was indeed looking to feast.  Seeing this was the case she runs toward the closest copse of trees she could find to take shelter reform into her natural state "Just my luck" she thinks to herself.  But she hadn't lived as long as she had to be the dinner of a dragon because of mistaken identity.

[Razvan]

Razvan halted midair and flapped in place as he watched a dragon approach the trees and tear after a horse. This was something natural so he had no reason to interfere, but he did watch, not wishing to be knocked out of the sky by the dragon. They were children of the progenitor and in turn children of rhaego so he respected them.

[Ashnarn]

The angel was little more than a bird-like figure that the dragon passed by. Her focus was the prey in the thicket beneath her; Ashnarn seemed to be curious at the equine's refusal to truly budge. That wasn't how her hunts generally played out. With a sigh of smoke from her nostrils, the great beast continued on her gliding only to watch the horse take cover deeper into the wood. With a disgruntled reptilian growl, Ashnarn passed over the tree crowns almost touching them with her wing tips; the second time however, she did what European dragons were notorious known for. A blindingly white gout of flames were pushed up and out of her throat, covering the foliage in a half circle as she passed over--in attempts to cut off any further travel into the woods.

[Kita Darling]

The female saw the flames and yelps. She runs over to the fire trying to gather it, make it smaller, hold it in the palm of her hand. "Holy shit! You're going to burn down the entire forest!" She yells at the creature that probably couldn't hear her. She was exhausting herself, but was able to put out a good majority of the flame by capturing it in her hand.

[Alora]

The fire... ohhhh... the fire.  It sparked something in her that the dragon would go and destroy precious life for the sake of a hunt.  She changes forms into her human one once more, safe under the cover of the trees.  She then hears the sound of someone shouting over the roar of flame and looks to notice another  seeming to pull the fire into her own hands.  She marveled at it and couldn't help but smile, even under the circumstances.  It didn't last long as she tried to figure out how to deal with the dragon in the sky.  She watches its movements and then looks to the girl "Hey!  Can you throw that back at the dragon?  Maybe then it'd think twice before sending another gout if there's something here that can retaliate"  She points up in the sky at the dragon.  She didn't know how to make the dragon pay for the destruction of nature but it seemed like a good start

[Razvan]

The angel remarkable did not stop the dragon. It wasnt that he condoned the destruction of the trees, but the dragon did it while hunting to survive. It was not wanton destruction and thus nothing that bothered the angel . He watched from the air, and noticed the to talking below. Oh so they wanted to throw the fire back at the dragon. Violence without any productive outcome, he did NOt like. Even he would only damage a tree if necessary. He landed on the top of one carefully and summon his bow, keeping it close at his side, watching the pair talk and the dragon hunt.

[Ashnarn]

Ashnarn shifted her weight to one side to complete the other half of her circle. She had her light blue eyes pinpointing where she last saw the horse but due to the now burning pines she couldn't smell it. Scanning from that spot outwards she noted her flames gradually smothering into nothingness. Maybe the leaves were wet? From this distance she spotted a winged figure land on a tree, though the dragon didn't keep her attention on it for too long. Hunger had been bothering her since the previous night when she had failed to catch anything.

[Kita Darling]

Kita smothers the fire in her hand, "Not without risking the forest more." Once the fire was out she steps out of the treeline. "Oh dragon!" She yells out trying to get its attention, hoping it wouldn't see her as food as well. She felt that Rhaego would understand if she hurt the forest to defend herself as it was her continuing her natural existence but she didn't want to. It was alive.

[Alora]

The sense the woman made about harming the forest more sobered her up almost as quickly as the matter of the dragon torching the forest to begin with.  And with the fire out, her inner rage calmed as well.  She places a hand on one of the trees that had been torched "I am sorry..." and then goes to join the other person out in the open, to try and get the dragon to notice there was something else beside a horse down here, and far less filling.  "Be ready in case it decides to make another sweep on the forest" but she moves up and shouts "Hey!  Enough of that!  You're trying to roast a horse that isn't a horse!  Leave the forest alone!"

[Razvan]

Razvan had been watching the discord, and he realised through their shouting the the dragons pray wasnt going to be prey and now the dragon would just be causing mindless havoc. He spread his wings and took to the air, circling the dragon to get its attention. "Your prey is gone. you must begin your hunt anew. Rhaego will always provide but it is not here."he called out sharply.

[Ashnarn]

The life that existed within the forest hadn't occurred to Ashnarn in her determination to find something to eat. But when the small red-haired woman exclaimed in protest her demeanor softened.' Horse that isn't a horse?'. The very proposal had her befuddled, and now she expended all of this energy for nothing. Razvan's statement furthermore quelled the tenacity she had for finding something, anything to eat. She did think about taking a chomp at the angel even though she doubted he tasted very good, but instead when she opened her mouth, the bluish dragon let out a heavy sigh. "Rinik pruzah mal lokraan", she replied partially to Razvan and veered towards the two women only to land in a clearing just big enough for her some handful of feet away, lower on the trail. Her weight shook the earth beneath her as she landed, folding her wings onto her back and looked over at the two elementals patiently waiting for them to explain their reasoning.
