Ghio merely chirped, wings flapping rapidly. "We shall see, dragon. Your rider will be quite disappointed in the future." Turning away, he then flew off into the distance, soon out of sight as he flew back to where one could only assume home, wherever that was.
Mysha blinked slowly, squinting. She was tired, and snuggled into Drake a little. "You're warm," she grumbled, obviously not thinking straight. Or maybe she was, who knew. Looking around, she watched as the statues returned to their spots. "You should get one," she murmured. "You might get a new power." And there was another reason too, but she didn't want to say it aloud just yet. Maybe with some more time.

Aldnoa sat and huffed. Only then did the blacksmith pull out a measuring tape, and begin to take dimensions of Larke's body. "Yep... hm..."

Flying over the mountains took patience,determination,and a lot of trust.Of which Charles had none.He couldn't manage flying two hours or longer on the back of Snapper.He looked over to his side.His wound wasn't getting any worse,so something good was coming out of this. Snapper just plum hated carrying a human on his back,they dug their hands into places he didn't know he had,had to eat every 3 hours,and reeked!The only reason an ice dragon of such power,such as himself,had to take care of this one was that he held his ice.His ice was the thing that could make him use his ice breath.Of which the human had and couldn't get rid of quite yet.He decided to land so the human wouldn't get the chance to complain about hunger.

Shard watched as the beast flew away and he huffed before turning back to Ma’ait and flying back to her. Taking in solid form again he started nosing, sniffing, and licking her. “Are you okay?” He asked.
Drake smiled and held her a sort of hug as she calmed down and tried to get her head back on right. At her last comment he blinked a couple times. “You think? It wouldn’t overload me, roght? With my other power already? And would the dogs even accept me?” He asked, looking at the intimidating statues.

Larkes just stood and let the man do his work, complying with whatever requests the smith made for measurements. He occasionally glanced up at Aldnoa to see how he was faring.

At the landing site was a particularly fascinating sight- a long, skinny white dragoness with large wings curled against her back, and long, finned tail curled upon around her quiet form. As they landed she lifted her head, that magnificent creature, to stare at them with a smile. In draconic, she asked the foreign Snapper, "Hello, what brings you here?"

Aldnoa, for his part, seemed mildly interested watching the man work. "Alright! Stay right there, I'll be back." And the man hurried off, leaving them alone.

Ma'ait nodded slowly, just letting Shard examine her. "I hate that bird," she decided simply, licking Shard's cheek. "We're eating him one day." She nodded to herself at the idea, as if setting a new goal.
Mysha shook her head. "You will be fine. This is separate from everything else." Looking at the statues, they just sat where they were, fire swimming in their jaws as they watched over their organs. "Just approach the one that speaks to you the most. The others do not matter."

Once the man went back inside his shop, Larkes walked over to Aldnoa and rubbed the dragon’s paw and leg where he could reach. “Thanks for trying to defend me there, Aldnoa. Seriously, it means a lot for you to defend a completely stranger like me so freely.”

"Food for that bag of flesh on my back."Snapper replied,throwing Charles off."If he doesn't eat soon he's going to start complaining and I don't want to die to the sound of chittering."
Charles stood up and made a snowball and threw it at Snapper's head."Don't do that again!"He yelled,knowing Snapper couldn't understand him.

Aldnoa purred again. "You are hardly a stranger anymore. You are my friend. My ally."

Shard nodded happily and continued to examine Ma’ait. “Sounds good here.” He said as he finished examining her. He laid down next to her and warbled softly as he nosed her neck. “You did great, Ma’ait.” He said.
Drake looked around at the statues and he grunted. “A-Alright. We’re here now, right?” He said with a smile to Mysha. He started looking at all the different statues and their associated body part, trying to find the one that called to him the most.
Larkes huffed a little. “The ally you’ve known for approximately fifteen hours.” He replied with a joking grin as he waited for the smith to come back out. “This is gonna be one wild adventure...” he said, mostly to himself.

The dragoness scrunched up her face. "Maybe you should leave him, then. He doesn't seem very nice."

"But if he dies I'm no better than a hatchling."Snapper spat."My flock's leader took my ice and gave it to that human to teach me respect."

"Ah. Well, perhaps you would like to meet my handler instead?" She suggested.

Ma'ait purred softly, nuzzling Shard. "You're better," she decided. "I'm glad you came across us." She was at ease again, knowing that trouble would not come to them for a while.
Beta sat with Mysha as they both watched Drake move about the area, the statues unmoving like before. They knew the ceremony was repeating again. So everything had gone quiet. For now.

"Handler?"Snapper repeated skeptically.

"Handler?"Snapper repeated skeptically. "Like your human. She and I live together." And right on cue, a girl, around the same age, comes racing from the woods. "Alicia! You can't just run off-" She stops, placing a hand on the hilt of the sword she had at her waist. "..Oh. Friends, huh?"

He came back a few minutes later. With armor in hand, undergarments to go with it, and even parchment with instructions on how to put it on by yourself! "Here you are! Would you like help the first time?"

"Sadly,they all are."Snapper replied."Why are you up here anyway?"
Charles was relieve to see another human besides himself up here."What are you doing up here?"
(Welp,I'm gone.Bye and good night guys!)

Drake continued to look around before walking towards the statue that had a lung at its paws. He knew that, while essential to life, he could survive if his lung was removed.
Larkes nodded slowly to the blacksmith. “Yes please, that would be much appreciated.”

Mysha watched carefully, unable to do much at the moment. "Give it to the statue, if that is your pick," she murmured, voice a little gravelly due to still recovering. "And then push through the pain." She glanced up at Beta, who made sure she was comfortable before going over to Drake, just in case he needed help after he fed the statue like Mysha did.

Drake looked st the fog and then at its meal, but then he felt a very strong chill run through him. It was clear this one wasn’t for him. He backed away a few paces. “Not that one.” He said, then turned around slowly and looked at all the statues. He eventually moved towards one that had the figure of a stomach. This one seemed to be calling him this time. “This one,” He said, picking up the stone carving. He took a deep breath to ready himself then tossed the thing to the dog.

Mysha watched the statue's jaws snap shut on the model, flames immediately dying out and a puff of smoke exiting the nostrils. One second. Two. It would be a few more seconds before the brand started etching itself into Drake's stomach.

Drake took this small window of opportunity to sit down and prepare, setting his hands back so he wouldn’t fall over when he started seizing up. He gritted his teeth, waiting for the pain.
