Creel let out a sigh. So, it really was a Rogue Rider and Dragon.
"We can take care of their injuries," he said, waving over Raldos and Marodyn. The Human man and his sky-blue partner flew over slowly, the large female dragon stopping to hover beside Ciraph.
"Raldos," Creel said,"Heal our draconian friend and her little dwarven companion."
Raldos nodded and Marodyn came in closer to he red dragon and his passengers. Raldos set one palm out toward the draconian and the dwarf, and a blue glow began to emanate from it as he began to use his magic to heal their injuries.
After a few brief moments, Raldos and Marodyn backed off.
"There, that should be much better," Creel said,"Now......I'm sorry, but these are very bad times. I find it a little odd that a traveling Rogue Rider and his dragon just so happened to pass by the first Elemental to walk Malnor in 1000 years since the Great Elementals themselves. In fact, I find it more than odd. I find it just a little disturbing.
"Now, I'll ask you one more time: What are you doing here?"

Agate watched the cerulean dragon approach, the giant wings whipping up a breeze. Yeah, she could divert the breeze away from them, but she didn't feel like it. Too much pain. A blue glow surrounded her, stinging a bit as a weird feeling washed over her. She let out a small yelp as her arm popped back into place with a juicy sound, her wing feeling much better now. Magic was not something Draconians dabbled it - it was a Rider kind of thing she felt. However, she could see now how useful it was.
Stretching out a hand, she felt her arm. Yes, it was returned to functionality. Sitting up carefully - it wasn't as dangerous since they were stationary, she looked at the dwarf. He looked positively ill. "Are you about to become sick?" she asked, concerned. Her head swiveled as she heard the word 'Elemental'. Oh yes, just go telling everyone who she was. However, she couldn't really say anything since she'd just created a dust devil. For now she stayed silent, making sure the dwarf wasn't about to fall off.

Blast this nosey dragon rider! He was pushing too hard. Here she was, it was all perfect and the rider ruined it. There was very little left for him to do, he had to lay a few cards on the table.
"She is the ONLY ELEMENTAL in the last 1000 years? HAHAHA, for such a clever rider I must say, you don't know too much." With that Shero snapped his fingers and created a spout of flame that spiraled around him. "She is not the only one, there are others and she deserves a chance to meet and learn from other! I can not force your hand here fair Dracon, the choice is yours to make, not the rider's."

Creel was on his guard as soon as this man ignited flames around him.
"dang....another Elemental?" he muttered to himself. He wondered just who this guy was and whether or not he was hostile.....

Hours wobbled and swayed on the dragon. Oh how he hated flying. He was a dwarf and his hairy toes should be wiggling along with the worms deep in a mountain! He could only wait to get down but he knew as soon as he was down he wasn't getting back on this thing again.
"Get the hell away from me!" He swatted with his good arm at the nosy dragon rider who was trying to touch his broken shoulder. "I'll cut ye inta little pieces!" He tried to punch the guy but he got pat and healed his arm and quickly got away. Hours grunted as the bones in his shoulder seemed to piece together. It felt revolting he was a dwarf and they distrusted magic saying it was unnatural. "Durn wizards!"
"Durn Elemental!" Horus would have fallen off the dragon once he saw the overly happy human sprout fire. He was quickly on his guard and knew he couldn't trust the man anymore. He might be hostile and even though dwarfs had a high resistance to flames he might not be able to face those.

Another Elemental?! Agate's mouth flew open in undisguised shock, revealing a set of perfectly white pointed teeth. Her tail twitched in excitement, the implications of this discovery settling in. Another Elemental...there were others. That meant there were more than he, no doubt. Yes, he confirmed it. Agate could have roared with joy at this revelation. He was a fire Elemental, not wind, but he probably had some sort of general helpful tips. Controlling the elements, at the root, had to be somewhat similar. She resisted the urge to stick out her tongue at the Rider. So much for him.
The dwarf was definitely not happy up here. It was no wonder - the thick race was meant for the earth and below, not the airy grace of the skies. He was becoming rather hostile to boot. He obviously wasn't so keen on the whole 'fire' thing. Turning a bit, she looked at him. "If you are that discomforted in the air, I would be more than willing to carry you to ground once more," she said, "after all, it was through my doing that you have come to be up here."

"Aye lass that would do me heart and body good and since I'll probably kill myself in a fight please do!" Horus was delighted to hear she could bring him down to his homeland. His bushy eyebrows raised in delight and you could even see his dark eyes. He scratched his dark beard waiting for her to do what she had to do.

With a toothsome grin, Agate went about doing what the dwarf asked. The earth people were not built for the air - it was almost cruel to keep one up here. Turning on the dragon's back with agility the short one did not possess, she wrapped a strong arm around his waist. "Hold on!" she shouted in his ear. Then she jumped. The air flew past them as they fell, Agate's green eyes bright with excitement. Her wings slowly folded out, braking their fall little by little. Outreaching her other hand, she pulled air beneath them, cushioning the descent until they were barely moving at all. Gently, ever so gently, her clawed feet touched the ground again. Dropping the dwarf, she eyed him with amusement. No doubt he would be glad to be back on solid ground, and she had dropped him around where he'd been in the first place. Dust was still thick in the air, mica shimmering in the sun. That was one wrong righted.

Horus grunted as Agate's draconian arm wrapped around his wide girth. She was a strong lass he noted and had a little yet loud laugh at that thought. "Ye a strong lass, ye remine me of dwarf lass." He wasn't happy to be flying in the air and hated even more descending, but she made it more enjoyable by the slow speed.
As soon as his boots touched the ground Hours fell directly on to it. He kissed it as if it was his mother and thats exactly how dwarfs pictured the earth being. "Aye earth how I missed ye!" He stood up and would have taken his boots off to have his toes wriggling in the dirt but he had to worry about he battle that might happen. His eyes already hindered by his large eyebrows couldn't see through heavy dust and he could only see shadows.

"Who are you?" Creel asked the man on the dragon as the Dracon took the dwarf back to the ground. He put a hand on his sword and Ciraph let out a growl.
This guy didn't look like he could be trusted, showing off his power like that. There was just.....something not right here.

Shero flicked the flames out and kept his eyes trained on the Rider in front of him. There could still be trouble with this Rider, he was distrustful. "I am Shero, you are aparently being quite hostile, then we'll leave out full names. As for who I am, I told you, I am an elemental and a performer traveling the lands." Shero was hoping to get out of this without a fight. "I hope Rider that your buisness with me is done now and you can be on your way?" Shero said with a grin and a raised eyebrow. "You have a war to see to, and I have buisness of the elementals to see to. So lets just part paths with a wave and a smile, neh?"

"What would that business of the Elementals be?" Creel asked, eyes narrowing in distrust, his hand tightening on his sword's hilt,"And, you'll also have to forgive me for not believing that you're just a simple performer. What kind of a performer is a rogue rider and an Elemental?"

Shero grunted, this rider just would not let up. "Distrust me if you must, and deny my story all you will, but it is true. As for my business, I am simply searching for my fellow ellementals. If we are to defeat the evil in this land we must band together and aid each other." Shero grinned as he looked at the Rider, "and seeing as you are NOT an elemental it is not really your buisness."

"It is my business," Creel said,"The Void is back and he wants to take over control of all of Malnor and send all of us into slavery! Believe me when I say it is everyone's business what an Elemental is doing."
Then, Ciraph turned his head toward Creel and muttered,"I'm getting strange scents from him. He smells of annoyance and dishonesty."
"I thought so," Creel muttered back to Ciraph,"We won't let him go anywhere with the Dracon alone. If they leave, we tail them."

Agate chuckled, an animal type of sound between growling and purring, at the dwarf's actions. He really did hate the air, didn't he? She looked up as he did, but unlike him she could see the giant shadowy beasts. They were still talking, though her ears picked up angrier tones. Civility was slowly going out the window. She'd better get up there. "By your leave, I must return to the skies," she said, bowing a slight bit to the stumpy creature. "It would seem Shero and the Riders are not getting along as well as I would have hoped. May I meet you one day soon, and let us hope it will not be under such dire situations." Grinning, she nodded to him and took off. Propelling herself upwards in a straight line, she appeared as if by magic at the head of the great dragon that was the partner of Shero. "I feel," she whispered into his ear, her slender form concealed by his massive head, "we will soon have to flee this pretentious crowd. When we decide to go, do not be startled by the speed - I will propel the wind behind us and make it blow against them."

Flamie nodded slightly at the Dracon's words. Shero was still locked in an angry staring contest with the Rider. "Look here, I am leaving. I have done NO wrong and have NO plan to do any wrongs. So take your inflated sense of justice and your band of mindless minions with you and fly to your precious little war." Each of Shero's angry words were emphasized with small bursts of flames from his clenched fists.

"And just what do you plan to do, hm? As an Elemental, you should be helping to fight against The Void, not running away from him!"
"He is correct," Ciraph said,"The Void is a very powerful Elemental. It would take the strength of several Elementals combined to defeat him, and they might even need help."
"Please! We're going to need your help out in the deserts of Dragowyn. Come on! Is there anything we can do to convince you to join us?"

"JOIN YOU?! Waste my time and efforts on petty conflicts?! NO, we are gathering the Elementals to learn from each other and raise our strength. I can not speak for the Dracon, but the only time I will ever wish to see you on the battlefield we will not be friends. You infuriate and annoy me, I do not care which side you fight for, what vague goals you aim to achieve, if I ever see you again, YOU WILL REGRET IT." With that Shero gestured to Flamie "Lets go Flamie, lets leave this biggot and his pack of fools. We have elementals to find."

Ciraph let out a roar as the rogue rider finished speaking. He launched himself with one might heave of his wings into the other white dragon, latching onto him in an instant, claws tearing at the other dragon.

Agate, too, bared her teeth at the arrogance of the Rider. Two Elementals would be of no help - they needed to find others, train. The Void was not upon them just yet. Untrained ones would only hinder, not help. She agreed with Shero on that point. It would also be easier for him to pick them off one by one. If they banded together, evaded him, they would survive. Zipping beneath and above the large white dragon, she anxiously waited. Any moment now they would disband from the group, no doubt. Then, with a curt phrase, they were off!
But not quite. Agate zipped ahead, then stopped. The other white dragon had attacked! His claws dug in, attacking full out. With a roar of outrage, she rushed back, her wings billowing with air as she whipped herself along. Stretching out both hands, she hovered in mid air. With a physical shove, she summoned all the air forward, creating a wall of wind that struck the attacking dragon right on its wings. This would cause irresistible pulling that would either break the wings or make the attacker release his quarry "Fly!" she shouted to Shero. As soon as the other dragon broke free, she would give one more giant gust and then propel them away.
