The next day came almost too soon. The night had been quiet with only a bit of clamor that had happened closer to midnight when Klarian had opened up for about three hours for business. Upon waking, everyone felt as refreshed as a daisy after a gentle shower. Everyone shared in a filling breakfast for free that consisted of several slices of toast with an egg in the middle, two plates of bacon, a plate of mini sausages, a bowl of mixed fruits, veggies and berries, and their choice of drink being milk, water, orange juice or a dark mixture resembling coffee.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPFoK8Jg0Eq

After eating they made their way to the battle grounds, not having any incidents on the way there from the still sleeping towns people. When they arrived, the hardened ground had been cleared of obstacles except for a few rocks. There were ten stone columns in a wide circle. Outside this circle stands five stone seats, similar to bleachers one might see in a gymnasium. The group approached and spread out to look around the seemingly barren area of vegetation. "This is a pretty roomy setup." Ivan commented as he stepped inside the wall-less circle.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmPttPp3MPU
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZiEJa5sjju
Klarian smirked with a small shrug. "Well of course it is. Gotta have room for full grown dragons and other large beasts to move around." He explained with a helpfulness to his tone as he walked with Ivan.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdy2GtGSjoY
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJoZCaHXyOy
"Oh," Ivan looked to Klarian as Amber walked by them. "So all participants take part because they want to?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPSabm9SFT
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcXW34OL31
"Given the lack of walls to keep anyone from running, that would make sense. Why else have an arena for battle without walls if you didn't ask people if they wanted to join in?" Amber questioned and Ivan nodded.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiGKWO85R9Z
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfiXo0LFyGV
Klarian chuckled as Amber then began to hum a tune that told many tales of war between humans and dragons for a metal throne of swords. "Something like that, one could say." He took a step forwards and folded his arms as he looked around then up at the brightening sky. While Amber was walking around humming her tune, Ivan noticed faint markings on one of the pillars so made his way over to where Faerthurin was to see if there was anything similar.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaRiaP3gnG2
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHlhVXBBZfW
During this, Kross admired one of the columns carvings while Jaylen caught a few more winks of sleep's in his messy hair. "Must have had a steady hand and put in a lot of time." He quietly said to himself before stretching and walking over to another one of the columns. Oin rubbed his chin as he surveyed the area. "Hmm...something feels off." He eyed one of the columns then looked to Jeminya who oddly Shiloh had decided to keep company currently. She ran her hand over the column with her face twisted in pondering. "You sense something off as well?" the dwarf asked as he made his way over to her.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXTRQ6mq6IY
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6wzPCgBkbB
Jeminya nodded. "Yes, but I'm not sure what exactly. There is something here so I think keeping our guard up is wise." She kept her voice quiet while glancing over to a relaxed Klarian.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0o7BDY0XB
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ368BwXW228
"Agreed. There's something odd about these stones but I can't quite place what."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1frM85jfb3
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnRtFExaHVk
On the other side of the battle grounds, Ivan was checking out a column as Faerthurin was a couple pillars away with Lucid hopping about the top of the several foot tall pieces of stonework. Ivan circled the stone structure as his face twisted in curiosity. "Hmm this is unique." He eyed and touched the carvings as he stepped around the column again to see that it did circle around. He went to the one to his right and also checked it. "Same carvings..." he looked to the dark elf that was now a column away to his right. "Hey Rin, can you tell me if these are magical?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlwVget2qj9
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHGchXQjvfh
"Huh?" Faerthurin looked and made her way over to Ivan with Lucid following and looking down on them, his head twisting left and right. "Now what are you asking about magic?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAmNARRwyv
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8v314To3oN
"These marks right here." He pointed out the series of carvings which were gibberish to him.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmCM1YlB69B
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUdraI1C94Y
Faerthurin's eyes widened as she eyed the marks over. How in the heck did I miss those? she wondered as she made her way around the column to see what Ivan had before swiftly making her way back to the pillar she had previously been boredly looking over. They match... she looked over to the left, right and behind her at the surrounding columns. I bet they also having matching symbols.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSncepQJMHE
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXVrigYLlRU
"So are they used in magic?" Ivan inquired after a minute of silence.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡktbicswnK4
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLiYlDgBz5g
She looked the carvings over closer and nodded. "Yes, they are used in containment spells and enchantments to hold things in." She released a breath and folded her arms as she looked up the tall pillar. "There is a magic inside this one and likely the others as well, given how they share the same markings." She looked around and then to Ivan. "Which explains the lack of walls if this magic is indeed containment."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NIt9FXtYp
Around one of the seating structures to the east walked Jalerom and Rose, checking out the way it appeared to be carved mostly out of stone with some wood used for some of the sitting area's. "How long do you think it took them to carve these?" the half elf inquired with a gaze to the party then to Rose when she spoke up.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvaVbr4OuC8
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFFdPHCsB8c
"Probably quite a bit of time. Say maybe a few days even with magic for all of them together." Rose put her hands behind her head as she spoke and looked up while turning her head to look towards a different set of seats. "Say...does any of this seem...a little off to you?" she questioned slowly before setting her sights on Jalerom.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzUd8xNYpBX
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXv4xRkjAVu
He shrugged, "not really or well, maybe a little but not too much. I mean, this is another race's land after all."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUC9psqKQl
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhul1pNUJ3x
"But why have an arena or area for battle without any solid walls? That puts the spectators at risk."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MW2RmnZsG
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PD19Bmla3
"Maybe..." Jalerom pondered as he folded his arms and turned his head down some. "...Perhaps they know some kind of shield spells that are maintainable for the length of a standard fight?" he looked up to meet her kind orbs. "Maybe there's magic in place like what was on those collars back in the Directian dungeons."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC4V40MkjyC
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2d1xrolqrI
Rose sighed and lowered her arms. "Do you think they are still going to try enslaving us?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRsTGbf90gk
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVahXplQKgg
The rogue shook his head. "I don't think so." He lifted his arms over his head and stretched. "So long as negotiations don't fall through, we should be perfectly safe and if things come to worse...we will just fight our way out as we run."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡguWuNji1tc
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNH5qoNpZQ
Moments later, loud footfalls echoed and the ground trembled lightly before gradually growing stronger. As the one responsible neared closer, Jaylen hissed which drew curiosity from Kross as Jalerom, Faerthurin, Oin and Lucid looked towards the north west. "And I think we are about to maybe meet the owner." Jalerom commented. This brought Rose to look at him before following his line of sight, waiting anxiously.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXQbAgpOA9b
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5IgxiG7hCC
Jeminya and Ivan were the next to look over. "Is this guy a giant?" Ivan quietly asked as he positioned his footing to stay up as the ground shook again.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUmoaWSVXEM
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQeuCLxBdCT
"Doubtful," Jeminya answered as she folded her arms and felt a nuzzle at her right by Starjay, making her by habit to gently stroke his nose with her left hand. "Given how we've mainly only seen reptile type creatures, I don't think we'll run into giants. There aren't even any giant slaves after all."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGskczrkxzK
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz65KlEE0xY
Rose's eyes widened as the owner neared closer. "What a magnificent dragon but...how did he get one of those?" she whispered aloud to herself.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWx0S1RPADV
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVHNbnyDmyU
Jalerom turned his head towards her. "What was that? Do you know about black dragons?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqcqBzq8mX2
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuG7f2BfuA2
She nodded with her eyes remaining on the beast. "They are beasts that enjoy their solitude and being alone except during mating season. Their breath weapons are unlike any others."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeK8Jyge5S
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUk3jAzKAZ9
"What is their breath weapon?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiE6jd0k7vb
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVtXbOCfgT0
"...I think I recall it being able to paralyze a target caught in their smoke." She replied flatly as her gaze then shifted to its rider.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1UBL8NtGd
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77bjRcubMk
Kross, Amber, Jaylen and Shiloh were the last to finally spy the new person. On the black dragon's back was an armored man, dressed somewhat in the style of a knight or general of an army. On his back flexed out wings of a dragon. His feet were not clad in armored boots but more the shinguard's came down over top of his scaled feet. The man, after the dragon stopped, straightened his back and his yellow scales could be seen on the tops of his feet, clawed hands, neck and around his face. His slit yellow eyes scrutinized the mixed group spread out. "Hmm...this is an interesting mix of creatures, now isn't it?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKY4QXOfBgr
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6IHHRDM1l
Klarian stepped forwards unfraid of the man. "Good morning, Devion." He came to a stop before giving a polite, yet sweeping, bow. "How are you this fine morning?" he inquired with a tone dripping with charm as he rose from the bow and flashed the armored dragon a grin.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEHlgg6VIib
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuOjsKUjSp
Devion dismounted as the dragon sat down. "I'm doing fine...half-breed." He flapped his wings a bit before landing as carefully as his words had been spoken. "Let's cut to the point, Klarian. How do you plan on any of these people getting your collateral freed from my hold?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ813rt36AJD
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB8Vhz4rK3s
Klarian opened his mouth to speak. "Excuse me, Devion was it?" he closed his mouth and looked to an approaching Kross. He watched the ranger with confusion. "We have come to ask you how exactly these battle grounds operate." Kross stated while motioning around the area, now standing beside Klarian. "We would also like to make a deal with you to settle dear Klarian's debt."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPR5pqVjzP
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIQrPZicXY
Devion stayed silent with his eyes set on the saurian. "...How much do you wish to settle it for?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYp07Vl1WUh
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPE3Vd2CNM
Kross gave a confident smirk. "Down to zero and to have his brother set free."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6pRmtIXkYa
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkyBGbfdh9O
Silence filled the air around them as Kross and Devion stared each other down. After several moments, the air finally was broken. "The battle grounds work like any other arena intended for combat. Participants are pitted against one another and the last one left that is able to fight, wins." Devion then folded his arms. "He owes me at least seven thousand gold in failed bets." He shifted his weight to one side with a cocked hip. "I don't see it being settled especially," he motioned towards the group, "not from such a mixed party such as this miserable one."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnNZw5WLMS
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNauuowBJms
Kross closed his eyes as his resting lips curled into a cocky smirk. "Heheheheh," he took a breath and opened his eyes to lock with Devion. "Try us."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjiwow6HnD
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡumkdEjt5ln
The armored dragon man motioned at Kross with an curious look. "What makes you so sure?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClNPKTcCOz
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhqiYAzMIx
"Because we've all faced many terrors and horrors before arriving here. I doubt you can throw anything at us that we can't handle."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj17g8r7qRb
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbt3yoNe8zq
Silence filled the air once more as Devion pondered this, rubbing his chin. His sharp orbs scanned the group one more time before resting on Kross. "Alright, I will accept your bet and here are the terms of our little deal." He cleared his throat. "If you win then I will erase his debt and release his brother, free as a bird. If you lose then his debt remains on the books and his brother in my cells." He approached Kross as he unfolded his arms. "Plus your party becomes part of my pets to use in combat as I see fit." He stopped in front of the ranger and offered a hand. "Do we have a deal?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsZ9onQAT1s
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWV4Ft4JWu
"If we do this deal, some might not see their fathers or sisters again..." Amber quietly commented with a little bit of worry.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcOozZHdqiM
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANjh1ezC63
Kross narrowed his gaze. "Think carefully on this." Faerthurin sternly warned.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOZOcxJOqFa
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7uiY7kN5vZ
"...Deal." Kross took Devion's hand, giving a firm shake.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyg6WXePfE
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ztACRoJsL
Devion chuckled smugly as they each released the others hand. "This should be fun. It's been some time since I last had fresh meat to use in battle." The black dragon loudly yawned from boredom and laid down outside the columns for a nap. "I am feeling generous so I will allow your group to pick two fighters to participate."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG54Kw28t5Y
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRkNlSuakBA
"Thank you for your kindness." Kross turned and made his way to the center while the others came to meet him. "Okay, so which two of us wants to fight against whatever he might send out?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmw2DMPYsj3
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIlxLKEsNdS
"That really depends on what he'll be using. Will it be his mount or something he has yet to bring out?" Faerthurin calmly questioned in her matter-of-fact way.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWABXDVaZag
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2gvm4UCnc6
"Good point..." Kross turned his head towards Devion. "Hey! What kind of beast are you planing to use?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmUuWpVikkO
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgJOyfPHKei
The armored man stood taller with his arms refolding. "Nothing bad...just my 'special' pet for such a special occasion."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrRxaT0LZda
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsj7xrCyFVp
"Well that was sure helpful." Jalerom sarcastically responded.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4klfXkQyFu
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCz5dpyXGpf
"At least we know he isn't going to use his black dragon." Ivan pointed out both assured yet concerned simultaneously. "So there's one good thing."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGaGoEIBP45
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiFQejkt1Ih
Faerthurin sighed. "That still doesn't exactly help us decide who would stand a chance at victory."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡufK9z11lTN
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4W9Z9uSkZh
Oin cleared his throat. "If we must simply outlast his pet, then perhaps I have a suggestion. How about Amber and myself take this fight?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWxlLVszjmI
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkinQONPTyR
"Oh yea, we do have the best armor." Amber perked up.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSMLpEexZ8
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsHk9cevmz
"Also we both have a decent track record of taking damage longer than the rest of you." Oin finished before looking over from Amber to the red horned queen.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXXd8SDClS
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgUMBd9Za1s
Jeminya huffed lightly as she put her hands on her hips. "Well excuse us for not being a walking cannonball." She retorted with a small smirk forming from Oin's response.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfQQfIv7hm0
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkk3HI65wVG
Oin grumbled and looked away from their leader. "Anyways," he looked to Amber. "Are you ready to go?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHU4CDEdlUR
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDk2GSUnyk
"Ready as ever." Amber nodded firmly with determination. "Let's reunite this split family!"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDMqTBeWnmc
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAasRYFaSBY
Devion yawned while shifting his weight to his other hip and unfolding his arms. "Are you lot done deciding on which two will represent your fate?" the party turned and nodded with Oin and Amber stepping up. "Good," he motioned to the seating. "The rest of you may sit and watch your freedom slip away."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHUu1wUcOiw
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOML2ZOuCSe
"Good luck Amber! I know you got this!" Ivan encouraged as he quickly gave her a tight hug.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZwWnTdACG
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVhYrjBREeq
"Thanks!" the golden dragon replied confidently with her own return of the embrace.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3qgCtXx2gX
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsW3F0Ei2z
"Come on Ivan, you can hug your love interest after she wins." Rose called out and Ivan broke the hug, and gave a quick wave as he ran over to the stone bleachers to join the rest of the party. Once it was just he and the duo, Devion looked back over his shoulder and gave a whistle. The black dragon shifted its tail and thumped it hard on the ground once before going back to sleep.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqxW4MbivJG
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBVN5qzp6xe
Amber stretched her arms above her head before twisting her body left then right. "This feels like the first fire elves trial." She looked to Oin as she brought her arms down. "What do you think we're facing?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwpHzTn8yEE
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecDu8cvMhi
"No idea but if it follows the same rules, even if killing is allowed, we just need to incapacitated it and we win. Shouldn't be too hard with my spells and your size." Oin answered as his neck cracked when he tilted his head left and right.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut2dfJj0TC
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsgzHhtSwu
She nodded with a smile. "Yea, there isn't anything we can't do when we buff me up, hehe."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa1Ql2Ckig
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡji1J7lGWzV
Shortly after that, the ground lightly trembled as a large beast came into view. It was making its way to the battle grounds while being lead on a chain by a silver scaled male. As it got closer, it was clear to see it stood about six foot five and was covered in white fur to resemble a wolf. When it came to a stop, it looked to measure around fourteen feet in length as it lowered down, stretched out its tail and snarled at the duo. The scaled man removed the chain and quickly made his way out of the combat zone.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiKEW0tMtR
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIfXhMKq6yQ
Devion stood proudly beside the snarling beast and stroked its side. "Magnificent, isn't he? He did cost a good bit of coin but I think it was worth it."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpD5WW1QEt
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIK4Msg4yMJ
The party stared in shock at the sight with some having their jaws dropped. "What in the world is that thing?" Faerthurin questioned while mentally noting the dragon horns on its head and the way its pupils narrowed similar to a dragons.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhVFtrsUoR
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3JoW30Hwg
Rose couldn't tear her gaze away while her mind went through all she knew about animals. "...I don't know. I can't remember anything that fits it completely." She scanned it over again to notice the spikes on the top of its tail and the talon looking claws. "The fur and claws are fitting for an arctic type wolf but the size and other features fit more with a dragon race." After a moment more, Rose lowered her head slightly and her tone of voice fell into one of great displeasure. "I don't think this creature was made naturally by nature."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQuU3NNquBo
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYR46CfYkyW
Faerthurin sighed and started using one of her skills. "I'll see then if there's anything I can figure out about it."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHOhJySVVqG
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdaPYmXNZ5B
On the battle grounds Devion patted the side of the beast. "Do you all like it? I call it Dragof, since that reflects both sides of him."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtsGL7MWVg
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXcmDdusLLf
"What do you mean 'both sides of him'?" Oin asked firmly.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbNKUCUoQX
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWonHDMu5Cf
"You'll find out," he glanced over towards the focusing dark elf, "sooner or later I would suspect." He smirked as her inspecting gaze turned into a glare upon him of disgust. "Now then, the rules are simple." He began as he set his sights on Oin and Amber. "There will be no magic allowed but natural skills are permitted."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpSnvi6SUt
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlm3OOAj7sC
"What?!" the shout erupted in unison from the bleachers with Kross having stood up with Ivan.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnO6MXBQh4
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMQ17rjmmFm
"Hey!" Kross snapped, drawing Devion to look over calmly. "Why did you leave that part out when I asked earlier?!"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyK7bF6j0AI
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0C3rJPrSe
"You didn't ask about the rules. You simply asked about the battle grounds." The owner calmly stated with a smug shrug.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCe4bEBVoUg
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoEY5hnyFXL
Kross growled with his jaw tense. "You knew exactly what I meant by that question."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7msiVOuB6x
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrA45qNd6k
The dark elf rubbed the bridge of her nose with her eyes closed. "Kross, just sit down now. He's not worth your energy...not right now at least."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbIbvivbMbI
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdFRkyOhGCA
"We can rub it in his face later when his little trick backfires." Rose added and looked over to a concerned Ivan. "You too. Amber will be fine." The two males slowly sat down displeased and worried.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbM4yhKsHWD
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrh5ZnRjzv4
Amber gulped nervous after hearing the 'no magic' rule. "I think we might be in trouble."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzfD8lRdPo
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvFfQYTaNc
"We'll get through this. We've gotten through fights before without using buffs and we will again." Oin calmly replied as he readied for battle.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLOpmOR7klx
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJPhjQ34HZI
The owner gave his beast another stroke. "Have fun and you may have a tiny treat during this fight." He walked away from Dragof to stand outside of the columns. He lifted his hand into the air. "Ready?" his hand began to glow along with each column's carved symbols. "Begin!" simultaneously as his hand dropped with his words, magic shot from one column into the next, flashing at the end after the transparent walls had been set.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl3ryOjf0ep
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZK9yX1VpST
Once the fight began, Fae was glaring daggers at Devion with a deep frown on her face. Ivan and Rose looked away from the battle and at Faerthurin. "Um are you okay? You look more annoyed than normal." Ivan inquired.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJ89x8rz0K
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTpfb0lf3ir
"What have you found out Rin?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEPwhYKfa1
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjkmuRUV6KO
"That beast was not naturally made but was created by force." Faerthurin's tone was low as she tensely answered.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNKswu77wDo
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavIhzaxsIE
"By force? What do you mean?" Ivan questioned.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqHC85V2bE
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMQ9tZPin7
This talk soon grabbed Jeminya's ear. She turned left towards the trio. "What's this now about force?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn25w9emxYx
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpZP43jFkfg
"I asked Rin if she could figure anything out about Dragof since I couldn't recall anything to pin down its species." Rose explained as Jeminya looked to her.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT5xEhY2kCZ
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSLoNnutmCH
Jeminya frowned and looked to Faerthurin. "Have you concluded what type of magic was involved?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPwdR3x18t0
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGxHforLVOT
Faerthurin nodded softly. "Someone used ritual magic to make that...thing."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmd7ojxxgjP

"Well that's troubling as I thought ritual magic was banned." Jeminya stated while lightly folding her arms.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYB6f17rTdv

"Troubled?" Jalerom blinked as he turned around in his seat. "What's troubling? The fight just started and I think they can take it."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdPMEyr0ylE

Ivan shook his head. "That animal was made using banned magic."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5psagdd06W

The rogue turned his attention to Faerthurin. "What?"672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBMzsNcyBSP

She took a breath and sighed. "Someone fused an arctic wolf and a dragon together using ritual magic. That type of practice was banned because most times those used were in a constant state of suffering." She set her orbs on Dragof. "It was seen as inhumane so was banned and those caught practicing it can be arrested, tried and jailed."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnpn8ffsz6a

"That is definitely not a good thing." Jalerom turned his attention back to the battle. "But they should still be able to beat it, right? And maybe if it is in pain then we can put it out of its misery."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXB7CSL2h2

Rose tensed at hearing all this and her fingers curled into tightly gripped fists. Shiloh at her side quietly whined and nuzzled her as he placed his head into her lap. "I don't think I want us to work with this race anymore."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsOLP71QBQ

"We don't have much of a choice. We need alliances to face my sister and have a better chance of not dying." Jeminya reminded.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSbyWBUpCsh

"I don't care!" Rose slightly snapped as she stared down the tiefling with anger. "They are going against nature and have caused two innocent creatures to become a monster, and for what? So they can make a profit."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4AkxzVp1K

Ivan stood and moved closer, coming to sit between Rose and Jalerom. "Rose, I know it's not right but we need all the help we can get."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAcUBo72hxj
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIP3yqRwN9F
"There's no place we can send it so it can live happily if it isn't in pain. If it is in pain then it's just another creature needing to die needlessly because of human greed."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaoEtSHLrBW

Kross lightly cleared his throat. "We don't even know if the yellow dragons were the ones who used that type of spell."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsbrLHzz59
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbYDKV7QDxu
Jeminya nodded. "Kross is right. We don't know who used that spell so in the way of use, the yellow dragons could be in the clear."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkJsDTu3HUq
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1mUAXekAYZ
"But in the court of knowingly buying a man-made creature? They are guilty as charged." Rose flatly stated.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0X6cNdNf39
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUYfeEeEMsw
"Unless they didn't actually know." Kross muttered before turning his attention back to the fight.672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAoOUXqzr61
672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbnBD48Uoc
Rose scoffed and began to pet Shiloh's head. "Oh they knew. There's no way they didn't know and they deserve no praise for it."672Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzaNDtoC69q
