Fol-lu, Skywarden

Age: Pretty Dang Old
Physical Description: Fol-lu has two forms, one which is his human form. In this form, he appears as an elegant looking man standing at an even 6’0’’ with long black hair. This is only his preferred mortal form, however, and he can take others if need be.
His draconic form is is that of an enormous feathered dragon, with a gleaming golden gem (the Dragon's Tear) embedded in his forehead, just between two golden eyes. The gem radiates with magical power, granted only to the Skywarden. The Skywarden's true form is roughly 200 feet long, and it is in this form that he is most powerful. He has the ability to decrease the size of this form at will.
---------------------------------------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: Fol-lu wears whatever is appropriate for the situation, whether that be a garb of silken finery or a set of comfortable traveling clothes. He also wears armor in battle at times, and commonly uses a polearm of legendary qualities. The weapon’s shaft is about as long as a short spear, except it is tipped with a long single edged blade that curves upwards at the tip for increased slashing power, this weapon is commonly referred to as a glaive. His weapon and armor can be summoned at will through the use of magic, since carrying around such things are an inconvenience one with power such as Fol-lu's does not have to deal with.

Fol-lu nods slowly at Va'nei's explanation, "Yes... There are many tales told of the Dragon's Tear, most are lost and forgotten now though," he said. He knew a few of the tales himself but they were so varied he couldn't tell which of them were actually true.
Fol-lu would quickly climb atop the massive green dragon hanging on tightly.
"Indeed I do know where the Century Dungeon is, from here we will need to fly north for a bit, I will give further directions as we go along."

Age: Way too old for any shenanigans.
Physical Description: In her natural form, Va'nei is a dragon. A very very large dragon. She stands 90' tall at the shoulder, and her wingspan is 480'; her body is long and slender, for a dragon, at 230' long. Her tail is longer than that of the average dragon, longer even than the rest of her body at a total 270', and dwindles to a long, thin, prehensile point capable of great dexterity and precision. She is ancient and colossal, an earth dragon of great wisdom, and appears to be covered in leaves, moss, and vines. Her eyes are a vibrant shining gold in both forms. In her human shape, she is humorously small compared to her dragon form. An average 5'6" and slender, she has long green hair and lightly-tanned skin; her skin retains a faint iridescent scale pattern, seen in certain angles of light.
------------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: When in her dragon shape, Va'nei carries no equipment. As a human, she wears layered green robes and a pair of thigh-high green heeled boots. She also wears a headband with a small feathered adornment just above her left ear, and a necklace comprised of carved crystal beads.

With Neva close behind, Va'nei flapped her great wings and took to the skies, angling northward at Fol-lu's direction. Their destination: the Century Dungeon and its prize, the Dragon's Tear.

<Quite a while later>
Va'nei came in toward her Sanctuary at a slow spiral, and landed near the river.. albeit not without some difficulty. Her forelegs were still burned and blistered, and landing without the use of her arms was.. awkward, at best. She hit the ground and wobbled, trying to perch herself upright on her rear end using her wings and tail for balance, and looked up to see if @tuesirth was following. He'd been right behind her as she left the Expanse, but it was entirely possible he could've taken off elsewhere on his own. He wasn't obligated to help her, after all, despite agreeing to. Once she'd discerned whether or not he was in fact still with her, either way, her draconic body shrank and twisted, slowly morphing into her human shape. She looked down at the blistering, painful skin of her arms and frowned. She'd forgotten that she was not, in fact, infallible.. she could be injured, could even theoretically be killed. It was a troublesome thought, and made her worry for Noroth, which then drew her head to lift and golden gaze to sweep around in search of the hatchling. She didn't want him to see her like this.

Tuesirth was, indeed, just behind her as she descended into the valley. He took as great a care as he could manage to avoid disturbing the serenity of the sanctuary as he, too, descended to the earth. His massive wings pumped hard to slowly lower him until his heavy claws thudded upon the earth, where they folded in and settled along his back. He glanced around, feeling a sense of peace fall over his rock scales like feathers.
His attention turned to the Earthwarden as she shifted her form into the lovely human figure... save for her scarred forearms. His eyes narrowed upon the marred flesh, and he took to shrinking to a smaller form first - beginning a heavy shake that was nowhere near as quick as a small dog, but the motion all the same. Only a bit of dust and pebbles flew from his figure, yet he began to shrink in size as if casting off layers of sand and stone. When he was now only the size of a house, he curled up and morphed back into the heavy armored knight from prior.
He turned to the female, his gaze a mix of concern and expectancy. "... what do you need of me, Ear-... Va'Nei?"

Looking over at him, a smile appeared on her face. Despite the pain she was in, Va'nei was glad to have companionship - and assistance. As she stood, the riverbank near her shifted, the earth moving to suit her whims and aid her. The muddy earth peeled aside, revealing a sturdy rock that rolled into the water nearby to be cleaned, then rolled up onto the grass once it was. The rock trembled and shook, pieces breaking off and sliding away until a shape was left behind.. a sturdy granite mortar and pestle. This was then raised on a pedestal of vines as she began to make her way.. toward him?
"I will gather the herbs needed, and if you will be so kind as to grind them up and aid me in applying the salve, I would be most grateful." She came to a momentary stop beside him, beaming up at the taller male. "I cannot thank you enough for your help, Tuesirth. I would be in dire straits without you." Moving past him to a small area tucked up against the mountain, she knelt down and gazed intently into a thick patch of plants. The trees nearby shivered, and if he looked upward, he'd see branches and twigs weaving together to form a basket, which then dropped near her; small, prehensile vines emerged from the earth and began to pluck blossoms, leaves, and roots from the various plants therein, placing them gently in the small basket as she focused. Her control over plants and earth had become far more precise since her awakening, but there were many things she still couldn't do by herself.

Her control and command over the earth was impressive, even as it left him a touch jealous once again. But he swallowed his pride - this was no time to deal with petty feelings and dwelling on the past. He moved over to mortar and pestle set up on its pedestal and proceeded to wait until she brought the desired herbs - watching her with a low gaze from where he stood.
"... I feel you give too much credit, Ear-Va'nei. I was simply there... hardly accomplished a thing. At least I can be of some service to you here."

With the basket filled with its meager contents, Va'nei carefully picked it up - wincing even as she did so, as moving her hands and arms hurt - and moved over to where he stood beside the mortar and pestle. Dumping the plants into the mortar, she dropped the basket and sat on a nearby rock, cradling her arms against her upper body, and looked up at him.
"I should like to think it less being of service and more helping out a companion. We are few in number these days - not just earth dragons, but dragons as a whole. We must stand together.. and while I would not insist upon your friendship, it would please me greatly to be able to call you friend."

The dragon turned man would listen to her words in silence, watching her as she perched herself upon a rock and ensuring she was settled before turning his attention directly from her to the mortar - taking up the pestle in hand and beginning to carefully grind the contents up one bit at a time into a powder.
"Then call me a friend, if you will. I hold no qualms with that." He goes painfully quiet for a few more moments as his thoughts began to drift. "... are we so few in number in this age, Va'Nei?" he inquires quietly, just a touch of pain in his voice. The thought of his beloved he left long ago made him feel empty with loss - if she were still alive, it would ease his heart. But with the notion of fewer dragons alive... it didn't bode for good news.

The pain in his voice as he spoke that question drew a look to her face that was both puzzled and concerned. What anguish did Tuesirth hold in his heart? Va'nei mulled over this as she considered how best to answer his question, and then she nodded slowly.
"Yes.. very few. Aside from you, I have met only three other dragons, not including my hatchling. And poor Noroth... He is not my own." Her head turned, letting golden gaze wander in search of the little one that she had adopted. She saw no harm in revealing the story of how her little one had come to her.
"I found him alone in a clearing not far from here. When his mother did not come for him after a day, I asked the earth to help me find where his nest was. It was.. beneath these very mountains. Monsters had come through and slaughtered his mother and his egg-mates.. he had wandered away and managed to escape it by virtue of sheer luck. He is a little earth dragon, and it is my hope that I can raise him to be another Earthwarden, and that he will take on my mantle when my time comes." She sounded thoughtful, and a little sad. It was tragic that his mother and siblings had been killed, and that his father was.. absent.. but at least they had found each other.

The story brought his motions slowly to a stop, his heart suddenly feeling like a heavy boulder in his chest. His armored shoulders slumped as a sigh huffed out.
"... you've taken on a great charge, Va'Nei. Possibly larger than that of the earth's call. To take on another dragon's hatchling to raise after such a tragedy. And the little one... poor thing," he murmurs, resuming the tedious process of grinding up the flora within the bowl. At least his naturally heavy hand made the task easier.

There was a definite change in his demeanor as she related the story, and Va'nei narrowed her golden eyes at him, wondering what had brought that on. Normally she wouldn't have asked, but if he knew something about her Noroth...
"Perhaps. I cannot help but wonder where his father is in all this, however. I have not been able to locate him. Why do you seem to carry a weight, Tuesirth?" She tilted her head and peered at him intently. Surely he wasn't... No. There was no way this world was that small. But then again, she'd found so few dragons. It was.. possible, wasn't it? She just... She couldn't wrap her brain around the possibility.

"Because any of us that answer the command of the very earth know the struggle of responding to it," he replies gruffly, swallowing thickly as he recalled the female he left behind. "I try to keep from questioning the voice of the earth, even when it called for my slumber beneath the sands and demanded I leave my mate behind."
Tuesirth grunted as he realized he was pressing harder on the pestle and mortar, nearly collapsing the pedestal woven from vines. He left them be, removing his hands and folding his thick, armored arms over his broad chest. He leveled a hard stare on the Earthwarden, obviously distraught but more aggressive than sorrowful. "I have yet to see the point in the command, but I answered all the same. And just like that female you found, I left her alone - by herself, to weep - in our den beneath the mountains. My only explanation to offer her was that I was called away for a task. The only thing I could do was kiss her tears away before I left her alone... just to bury myself beneath the sand in a blasted desert and sleep for years to pass. And THEN to wake and be dismissed as if I never lived, as if I was nothing more than a boulder on the road," he barks, his booming baritone snapping out.
Without any indication, the earth beneath his feet cracked and jutted out in flat-headed spears around him - looking most offensive. It was clear the male could be aggressive, and he was obviously offended. He remained ruffled, in a sense, for just a few moments before he stomped his foot, and the bolts of stone crumbled to piles of dust and pebbles around him.

Those golden eyes filled with sympathy as Tuesirth spoke, and despite his aggressive display, she didn't seem to judge him badly. Instead, after he'd said his piece, Va'nei rose from her perch and approached him with a measured stride. Despite the pain in her arms, she reached out and laid her fingertips lightly upon his armored shoulder, her voice painted with sadness and understanding.
"I am sorry that the Earth pulled you away from your mate. Answering the call of those we serve is never easy. I was drawn into slumber many thousands of years ago, and awakened into a world very much unlike the one I left behind. I thought I was alone, but soon after my awakening, I was nearly killed by the only other dragon I had met since I awoke. It is not the same as your pain, and I do not try to say that your pain is lesser than mine.. I simply wish to point out to you that I know how hard it can be to answer the call." Her hand fell, and she turned away from him, looking instead upon the smooth mass within the mortar. Setting her jaw against the pain, she raised the pestle and began to swipe the green substance from it, then set it aside before she began to gather more of the salve onto her fingers and gingerly spread it onto her blistered fingers, hands, and forearms. Her face visibly tightened at the anguish this inspired, but she was doing this for a reason.
"I did not know that you had a mate, and I apologize for keeping you from her, Tuesirth. You should return to her. I can take care of myself from here, although I appreciate your assistance." Her golden eyes briefly flicked up toward his face, and she offered a strained smile, then turned her attention back to her task. Shaking her filmy sleeves out of the way, she continued to apply the salve with unsteady hands.

His hands shifted from the fold and reached out to try and stop her, though it would likely not be too gentle with the armor across his hands. If he could get her to stop a moment, he would then take his hands back to clench the fists tight - virtually shattering the armor to reveal his weathered hands. Then, he would try again to be as careful and gentle as possible to apply the salve to her scarred arms... if she would let him.
"... You asked for my aid. I give it freely. Besides, I would have no idea where to look to seek her out. She might have moved on to another den... another mate," he tacks on with a grim expression, his voice dropping low. "I slept for many decades... nothing is quite the shape I remember it. I recognize very few faces, and they hold no recognition of me. I... I cannot expect her to remain the same, either."

As he reached for her, Va'nei went still, and looked up at the male questioningly. She was surprised to see him breaking the armor around his hands to bare the flesh beneath, and picking up the job that she had begun. Taking a moment, she removed the detached sleeves which lay snug around her biceps and let them flutter to the ground, baring her flesh to Tuesirth's ministrations. Every touch made her inhale sharply, at least until the anesthetic properties of one of the plants she'd selected began to take effect, eliciting a pleasant numbness that blocked out the pain. She looked up at him once more with sympathy as he began to speak again, and her voice softened.
"You will never know unless you try. I have heard that love is a precious thing and not forgotten easily, although I have never experienced it myself. If you truly loved each other, is it not worth at least trying to find her?"

Tuesirth took the time to ensure her arms were well covered and tended before releasing her, and he took a small step back - his gaze seeming defeated despite her urge for hope.
"... I suppose I could. I... vaguely recall where our den once was. To try and find it again will be no easy task, if I am not seeking out something no longer there already." He brings a heavy hand up to run over his long, sand-golden hair, letting his gaze turn to sweep over this paradise they stood within.

The more of the mixture that was rubbed onto her arms, the better she felt, and it was clear in the easing of the tension in her face. Finally, with all of the salve applied, she breathed a sigh of relief, and smiled up at him. She moved to reach out and pat his shoulder, then remembered the greenish goo plastered all over her skin, and retracted her hand with a soft chuckle.
"Perhaps the Earth will aid you if I ask kindly. What was your mate's name, if I may ask? Was she also an earth dragon?" Barely had the words left her lips than she was already communing with the spirit of the Earth, asking it about Tuesirth's mate, and the location and whereabouts of their den. It was a long shot, but she wanted to help him.. not only because he was one of her kind, and also an earth dragon, but because she wanted to repay him for his kindness.

The male let out a heavy breath, and eased himself - armor and all - into sitting down on the ground. His arms came across his raised knees as his hands clapped together, his gaze remaining on the ground. Silence stretched on for a few moments more before he sighed again prior to speaking.
"She was, indeed, another Earth dragon, but of a different kind. She was a... a storybook classic, if you will. Scales of green and brown, flightless... but I loved her all the same. She always had a big heart to anything smaller than her... and immeasurable patience for me. Ra'Netha was her name."

Va'nei Dha'zhi, Earthwarden
Dedicated
Roleplay posts: 323
Age: Way too old for any shenanigans.
Physical Description: In her natural form, Va'nei is a dragon. A very very large dragon. She stands 90' tall at the shoulder, and her wingspan is 480'; her body is long and slender, for a dragon, at 230' long. Her tail is longer than that of the average dragon, longer even than the rest of her body at a total 270', and dwindles to a long, thin, prehensile point capable of great dexterity and precision. She is ancient and colossal, an earth dragon of great wisdom, and appears to be covered in leaves, moss, and vines. Her eyes are a vibrant shining gold in both forms. In her human shape, she is humorously small compared to her dragon form. An average 5'6" and slender, she has long green hair and lightly-tanned skin; her skin retains a faint iridescent scale pattern, seen in certain angles of light.
------------------------------
Clothes and Equipment: When in her dragon shape, Va'nei carries no equipment. As a human, she wears layered green robes and a pair of thigh-high green heeled boots. She also wears a headband with a small feathered adornment just above her left ear, and a necklace comprised of carved crystal beads.

Sitting down on that rock again, Va'nei folded her legs before her and continued to speak with the Earth. She relayed Tuesirth's description of his mate and her name, and spent several long minutes in back-and-forth with the consciousness of the earth. It had a fondness for all of its creatures, but the earth dragons had always been especially close to its heart, and so it remembered all of them, both those who were alive now.. and those who were gone. The images that the earth relayed to Va'nei caused the Earthwarden's heart to sink, and her golden eyes opened slowly. Her gaze turned to Tuesirth, filled with sorrow and sympathy.
"..Tuesirth, I.. I am sorry.. she is..." She swallowed hard, and struggled to get the words out of her throat, which felt tight with grief for him. "..she was the one who resided below my mountains..." Her hands clenched into fists, and she winced, forcing herself to relax. Getting angry would help no one, and it certainly wouldn't help her injuries if she exacerbated them with such physical gestures.
"That is my failure. I should have wiped out all the monsters residing below this valley as soon as I took it as my nest. Because of my carelessness, your mate and your young.. they are all..." But then she remembered. They weren't all dead. Noroth... Her heart filled with pain. She had come to love Noroth deeply, as though he were her own. And now she would have to give him back to his father. But it was where he belonged. Not with a female who was of no blood relation to him. Squaring her shoulders, she looked at Tuesirth once more, unable to hide the pain in her gaze as she spoke the hardest words of her life.
"This means my Noroth is your son. I have no right to keep him, now that his blood has been found. I.. I relinquish him to your care. Where he belongs. I will not ask forgiveness for not taking the precautions to ensure that your family was not killed.. I cannot be forgiven for such a grievous mistake."

... fate was too cruel. He knew this. At the mention of his beloved being the slain dragon beneath the mountains he grimaced, his expression twisting into pure anguish. In his human form he let out a pained, broken sob - before a song of loss and forlorn began to rumble from his chest, much deeper and heartfelt than the one he had tried to sing when the battle of the undead was over.
His gaze slowly rose from where he sat and fell upon the Earthwarden - and his heart crumbled to dust when he saw the pain in her being as she vocally turned over the child to his care...
It would be here he spoke bluntly. He threw cautious and eloquence out the window as he rumbled out his response - still very much pained, but old. "You say you have no right - you, who took him in where I left him and my mate to the horrors of the world. Where I abandoned them, before I ever knew she was bearing eggs. If anything, I am not deserving to take him as my son when he has a proper parent overseeing him now. He IS where he belongs."
His expression remains hard for all of about a minute when he finishes speaking, before a sadness betrays in his eyes - and the way his voice cracks just a bit in his next words. "... but if it would not offend... might I see him once?"
