(I apologize for the length as this is the second part in it's full form instead of broken up as I did the first part and will do the third and forth the same as part 2, with likely later breaking up into smaller pieces)

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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN9YvwTA8Fh

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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XfEEcRZWi
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJHJajQi4x
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrq0L3YuOK1
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LcDIhjV4z
"Oh," Ivan looked to Klarian as Amber walked by them. "So all participants take part because they want to?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHjs1gE568c
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQWrfQZ2Jz8
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzdLlSKOWTX
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4HIRHFsm6D
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDkgOQd6NcA
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbtqWS9pQS
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfNqU7KWWz
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxN3MiPQUC8
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrKKPcEKorc
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWsOxNlLMgE
"Agreed. There's something odd about these stones but I can't quite place what."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq1aDMw28zu
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡADHci4y3C0
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKfl9kCZOP
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5tJFOMDqIr
"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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM73VD9xULp
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCTUoHxATU
"These marks right here." He pointed out the series of carvings which were gibberish to him.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKm3lk7EDW
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2hsLyUsnx9
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PQNTO2Zcm
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjzprhMz1xF
"So are they used in magic?" Ivan inquired after a minute of silence.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbmv8m9w34
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtiDCldC4b0
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡynj3P6hI90
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGnYm0wIGtS
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw8fZgiEjs
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPQTHyAUMYb
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqS5gFZb1iF
He shrugged, "not really or well, maybe a little but not too much. I mean, this is another race's land after all."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMq9ex6ghXi
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS1O4ymqajp
"But why have an arena or area for battle without any solid walls? That puts the spectators at risk."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MfiJg5yIK
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLKtry4lL6I
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiRbEYHe0sP
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwxQb52TgbK
Rose sighed and lowered her arms. "Do you think they are still going to try enslaving us?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9gnnOlGKC
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5DbMIP1gWS
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNdpPdO9do
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHFLj5KWkE2
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rblOfbAYl
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxUKAXLBeuv
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtf6CJrMCgo
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0HIKAW5cAz
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCXSNLEa5S
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlmA03Hll05
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvBhWtpkuw
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLhDjPw1oz0
Jalerom turned his head towards her. "What was that? Do you know about black dragons?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhilquPMR7p
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7NbzlVFvdk
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZsrzJuYLOo
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEfmtMJWYV
"What is their breath weapon?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNDPYnISV6
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIywfbv9Wy0
"...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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJsUGiiqH4A
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu9XgcYW3k
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlJacxIfiP
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2WYbgqi5P7
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ilTX0g7d3
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2EcCguFJ10
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qzCwsdCr4
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiSUh7pP96A
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDus9YOd1R
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqsN0eZkBVi
Devion stayed silent with his eyes set on the saurian. "...How much do you wish to settle it for?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡst5KvvNN8L
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGGmA16t6fV
Kross gave a confident smirk. "Down to zero and to have his brother set free."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTclml9Yuf
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡty8FofKqWa
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrKXIP2opy
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1kSZr0qz2
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOgkMCZn1wy
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQYYOfmtQ5S
The armored dragon man motioned at Kross with an curious look. "What makes you so sure?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt2hRJIRH1p
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbaJIIPcfb
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhk2MeO5G6y
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHtaUx9SlNM
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa2eHIfgqhQ
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmG6WGzJpV
"If we do this deal, some might not see their fathers or sisters again..." Amber quietly commented with a little bit of worry.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxZpmNZcegr
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuw6Cd54juN
Kross narrowed his gaze. "Think carefully on this." Faerthurin sternly warned.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoL51Mud5fy
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGbe0DGBzFp
"...Deal." Kross took Devion's hand, giving a firm shake.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzjPmwIUSnK
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoQ41FtaBD
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnU0LGYAwz
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCDa49MsS04
"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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡknwZXCrBcg
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGka2Vb4ad8
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZRJV7fAKA
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡza7neylqGJ
"Good point..." Kross turned his head towards Devion. "Hey! What kind of beast are you planing to use?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHiMdmuFZqf
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg8sTmR9XLI
The armored man stood taller with his arms refolding. "Nothing bad...just my 'special' pet for such a special occasion."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnjWNSVAor
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQmUyIvMwZB
"Well that was sure helpful." Jalerom sarcastically responded.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gucMcKCaO
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD1CvY8ryPt
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJgGP63Owjs
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvumrVOa1YU
Faerthurin sighed. "That still doesn't exactly help us decide who would stand a chance at victory."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEfeJ84PDea
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJQqGo9Ctw3
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSdIMtHt7f
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3hZ5ZredLz
"Oh yea, we do have the best armor." Amber perked up.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7hyQQVDgVb
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOQxeCN1J1
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrcUvNxCXos
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBcK1eclIfL
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGr08IW3n50
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgJhtfmfNY
Oin grumbled and looked away from their leader. "Anyways," he looked to Amber. "Are you ready to go?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiD87mhuVz
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiaeVuVBlD
"Ready as ever." Amber nodded firmly with determination. "Let's reunite this split family!"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxFQHXCnCIZ
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH4gh8gtAt3
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFiDSnDFLta
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwVwX3YA5Bq
"Good luck Amber! I know you got this!" Ivan encouraged as he quickly gave her a tight hug.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7bRtteRsA8
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYa3cWpJvZE
"Thanks!" the golden dragon replied confidently with her own return of the embrace.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRLhTwYriJz
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFXSqsHKYU0
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHME4wTakIU
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK75PncDzVq
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?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCggZ1yuILW
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQwfyhhLNzl
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE9nvH49tqN
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLI1ehx1cEu
She nodded with a smile. "Yea, there isn't anything we can't do when we buff me up, hehe."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAFYZsbsMTi
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNoZlMVwqUg
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhV6SGuGa64
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwNlmBuLoPX
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyI6fBdj341
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfFqSyBpr5
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Pk2C6A2ji
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhy6lX3LP2
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6lHTyG1t0N
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡduizpIWdTj
Faerthurin sighed and started using one of her skills. "I'll see then if there's anything I can figure out about it."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN6XpR3UuO2
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcUUtuCyUdw
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDeOT62NCxM
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4jzC5ZnOL5
"What do you mean 'both sides of him'?" Oin asked firmly.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8UEaQAfP4
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWNQZxdcdv
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv5U9QwGMU4
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuQ8bA5Zv4d
"What?!" the shout erupted in unison from the bleachers with Kross having stood up with Ivan.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡytOmvU851p
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWisDVgW75W
"Hey!" Kross snapped, drawing Devion to look over calmly. "Why did you leave that part out when I asked earlier?!"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cneoc7281
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvtmAJrvY4Q
"You didn't ask about the rules. You simply asked about the battle grounds." The owner calmly stated with a smug shrug.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGkSZsdzu4
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoeBb4NZEMZ
Kross growled with his jaw tense. "You knew exactly what I meant by that question."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIeQLjRv83r
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtjhNPC3kHY
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3GKexSkRUH
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKVJUxWnb9b
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjy6AzJEn9U
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPvGMW0Xq0Y
Amber gulped nervous after hearing the 'no magic' rule. "I think we might be in trouble."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMDZHHbGqU
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyHCW70EKm1
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsIJi8Xg7l1
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDTRMOLNToa
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPx8Zk62suu
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKqTPjVgkn7
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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4U9NpRZF1C
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTRXOonjmfd
"What have you found out Rin?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqYN4CoEJ6g
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9WVhWiI5fW
"That beast was not naturally made but was created by force." Faerthurin's tone was low as she tensely answered.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd6OexgJo7a
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwFDzNM1Js
"By force? What do you mean?" Ivan questioned.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡST1St4fOxl
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhrcSfKBBj
This talk soon grabbed Jeminya's ear. She turned left towards the trio. "What's this now about force?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEjq80mjf3e
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWRYaGrhfe
"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh6qea7P9sD
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNBKQvzGh3G
Jeminya frowned and looked to Faerthurin. "Have you concluded what type of magic was involved?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgbEb6jZQO
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYZFKHFaLft
Faerthurin nodded softly. "Someone used ritual magic to make that...thing."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaJxFvgOkm0
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo2HRyVtvAd
"Well that's troubling as I thought ritual magic was banned." Jeminya stated while lightly folding her arms.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnSzZciL6e
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZLNRLrNcq
"Troubled?" Jalerom blinked as he turned around in his seat. "What's troubling? The fight just started and I think they can take it."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3fE8EV2Jdy
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcfgq9N6nf3
Ivan shook his head. "That animal was made using banned magic."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzBGWcbdqKo
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6D0I32imxL
The rogue turned his attention to Faerthurin. "What?"651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt4KX0xGUY7
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSVKlvohvl
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaT0aAgqWhI

"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOHywWqAhPp

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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWQJd7ODIXP

"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.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU5UUhifz5r
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRVorBRfRe
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0qA6urWRjo
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrIMZDDvZoq
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsuSx0SuNC
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVQgAWw1sV
"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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRbSsrzDnPX
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0DqxNK4rpi
Kross lightly cleared his throat. "We don't even know if the yellow dragons were the ones who used that type of spell."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoANtDfm9QE
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQdXQbikKH
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAV4DaRI0ej
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ59REy8SZHd
"But in the court of knowingly buying a man-made creature? They are guilty as charged." Rose flatly stated.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoLfzU5UhkR
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwA9KWYiMIj
"Unless they didn't actually know." Kross muttered before turning his attention back to the fight.651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPPWXRcP5c
651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1cL8Vz6Cqk
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."651Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAL7oslqLa8
