Phoenicia used the remaining crystals the next day and returned home. She dropped down in her room, exhausted, but feeling like she finally accomplished something. She wanted to go fetch something to eat, but her body deemed otherwise and she fell asleep.

At sunset, Ourias poked his head once again into Ivy's cave, eyes searching the long red shadows. "Anyone there?" he called tentatively, flinching slightly at the echo. He stepped over the stone lip, puffed his chest, and shouted a little louder. "Iskander? Ivy says she's gonna be staying with a patient tonight!" When no reply came, the young dragon turned away from the cave, his shoulders sinking. "So, um . . . she said to try not to kill yourself."

The ground below Ourias's feet began to rumble, and two sandy paws popped out of the ground, followed by a head and neck. "Oh, hey, Ourias. I thought I heard your footsteps." Iskander said wanly, shaking off dirt from his scales. "I hope she meant by accident." he added, brow wrinkling inauspiciously.

Shyla looked down at the weapon and spat on the sleeping man. "Filth!" she said, and then stabbed the man in the neck with her weapon. In a few seconds, the lifeblood of the man was drained, soaked into the thirsty soil of the woods. "Well, that takes care of him being on the alert." she finished, wiping her blade on the man's clothes. Her eyes flashed as she saw something move in the trees. "Watch out! There's something or someone over there!" she hissed at Nive.

"Ew." Nive flicked a spot of blood off her arm, irked. "That was a bit unece--" Nive began, but froze and drew closer to her sister at her sudden warning. "Come out!" she growled, poised defensively in case whatever it was decided to attack. Her eyes caught the dark shape of the figure retreating through the trees, and she gave chase. "Oh no you don-" Nive cut herself off as she stumbled into a clearing, just in time to see two armed men sway on their feet and fall over, fast asleep. The guards had been standing outside the mouth of a huge stone building, the facade of which was hewn into the side of the cliff, but appeared to lead into the belly of the mountain itself. Nive stood hesitantly outside the cavernous black door. This must be where they keep the dragons. she thought grimly.

"What's with the guards falling asleep?" Shyla asked, entering the clearing after her sister. Her eyes narrowed in disgust at the door looming overhead. She tried to push open the large black doors, but they wouldn't budge. She cursed and said, "Drat! Must be locked from the inside! Well, maybe that door wouldn't be unlocked.." Shyla motioned towards a smaller, well-hidden door in the side of the cliff.

Nive cussed and lashed at the crack between the doors with her discus, but to no avail. "It's not just locked, it's enchanted." she said, following Shyla's motion. She went over to the small hidden door and reached for the handle, her fingers twitching as they sensed the undone enchantments around the lock. "It's open." she declared, her hand hovering just over the handle.

Next day Phoenicia visited Sol'Lux and then went to find Gorn. "Howdy, partner?" she said when she did, circling over him.

Gorn had gotten so bored he had tied his lance to a tree and let it swing back and forth. He had also set up small stones around it so that every once in a while it would knock one over. His mood quickly changed when he heard Phoenicia call him. "Pho! Man its good to see you, how'd it go?"

"You tell me. From what i know it worked, and getting the humans to fight each other is easier than you would think. So yeah, we got several thousand innocent people into war." she shook, but didn't really mind. About time they gave them tase of their own medicine. "So much for the traveling planned. All this makes me wanna just sleep it over anyway. Let's go have a party!" she said, happy for the first time in a week.

"Don't worry, as soon as word gets out that the wizards left, im sure the whole island is gonna be getting down." He grinned and gave a thumbs up. "But there is one thing. What with the traps and the constant danger we havn't really had a chance to go on an actual date."

"What do you mean, the war is over?" Raurik barked at the messenger that had been waiting outside the old camp to tell the news. "Just like that? When we had the upper hand?" He took a moment to calm himself, a deep growl rattling in his ribcage. "No matter. We'll continue with our plan of re-conditioning the prisoners. This isn't over. No, this is only the beginning..." Rosengard's poison-fogged eye glared up at the dragonslayer, smoke rising from the corners of his muzzled mouth. He glared at his captors with useless rage, the sedative preventing him from using magic, much less breaking free. He and the rest of the spies that had survived were at the mercy of the wizards.

"Open? Really?" Shyla said, peering around the door. The place was deserted, but she could easily detect recent signs of life: the dust disturbed, some chairs propped against the wall, and so forth. From the walls, a small -thump!- noise reverberated over and over again, as if someone (or something) was banging against the wall. Could it be? "I think there's definitely something in here, Nive. Perhaps it's the dragons creating the banging noise?" Shyla whispered, crouching down. With that noise in the background, it easily masked any other noises that could mean between undetection and discovery; life and death. "Let's go, Nive." she whispered.

Nive ducked through the doorway and stepped inside, her hand brushing against the wall, feeling the reverberations through the tips of her fingers. She kept close to the shadow of the wall as she tiptoed through the corridor. Suddenly a figure rounded the corner and appeared in front of them. Nive cried out but the wind was torn from her lungs before she could make a sound. Her shield had materialized between her and the figure defensively. "Shhhhh!" hissed Vitaly. He stepped into the torchlight, holding up his hands to show he was unarmed. "Don't attack. I can take you to your father." he whispered, looking over his shoulder to make sure there was no one there.

Shhhhh!" hissed someone. Shyla readied herself in case of attack, but there was no need. He stepped into the torchlight, holding up his hands to show he was unarmed. "Don't attack. I can take you to your father." "Really?" Shyla whispered, and then unsheathed her hidden blades. "Lead on then, but if this is a trap, I'll kill you."
