Fantasy ~ FableWood ~

( lets use a little time lapse then)


Nyr was shocked by the sudden proposal but she also did not mind the idea at all.


" You... my friend? Well if you are sure that you don't get freaked out by a raven then I would be truly honored! "


She listened to her little story and understood it more than she expected. Yes, death would have been a such a simple solution to all of her problems as well, but ultimately she always fought back the urge and after a while she did not even think about it. When she was about to answer her question Rose appeared before them.


" Indeed, we are enjoying the night. " she said as she stood up before Rose and bowed before her. " Although I may be too selfish in this aspect: I am alive in the night the most since I am nocturnal yet you two might need some sleep during these hours... I feel ashamed that I forcefully keep you awake with my bothersome company. But if you wish you could join us nonetheless. "


She then privately asked a little gust of wind to whisper to Elena's ears.


" Don't worry, your secret is safe with me. In privacy we shall continue that topic for I wish to tell you about it. "
 
" Why dose everyone do that? " Rose asked tilting her head when Nyr bowed. It made her wonder about her heritage when they did that...which only makes her sad because she never knew her parents
 
Elena chuckled at the communication between Nyr and Rose. So far, Nyr had been addressing most of the new people with the most respect and Rose seemed confused.


"I think.. thats just how Nyr likes to treat new people?" She guessed.


"Actually, im glad you're out here. Nyr and i arent the only night owls, it seems."
 
" If it bothers you I shall not do it anymore. " Nyr said calmly. " I am sorry but that is pretty much the only way I know how to approach people: to treat them with respect regardless who they are. "
 
Rose mumbled a little to herself with a frown then before anyobe could say anything g about it she went back to smiling she held up her palm and made a small flame " Look "
 
Elena smiled with glee at the flame, then a little reluctance as her first reaction was to touch it. That was a.. a habit the needed to drop.


She had a sudden idea to take out her note book and wrote of Roses flame, drawing it.


"I wonder.. if i can write things into this place? Or think them into here?"
 
" Fire. " Nyr said while applauding Rose. She always admired dragons for being magnificent and ancient users of magic: their knowledge was unlike any other being in the ways of the arcane. " The flame which burns in our heart. The symbol of creation... and of destruction alike. Such a whimsical, volatile element: usable for both creation and annihilation... "


She looked up and saw the bored faces of her companions so she quickly shook her head.


" My apologies, a bad habit. "


Then Elena proposed something audacious - yet intriguing.


" You mean creating life? That would make you a god - more powerful than any being in FableWood. I am not sure if it can be done but if there is a possibility of it working that only a talented human such as you would be able to do it. "
 
Rose nodded and giggled then said " When someone dose something g I'm an act of caring for me I get some o my power back " she smiled
 
Elena started laughing, as Nyrs idea was interesting. Life? Probably not... but maybe create or control temporary obsticles?


"Like when writing a story, you can only keep an object or thing in the story for as long as its being written. When its nolonger written, it disappears from the readers mind. Maybe i could create an event? Even if its gone after i do so.. i mean, correct me if im wrong but was all of this not written and believed into existence?"
 
Nyr thought about what Elena said but she had no solid clue to support or deny her idea.


" I am not sure that this world is being written by someone if not by fate itself. Yes, we are all creatures who were born from myths... but we are as alive as you are. I do not think we would fade from existence that easily. The world is a whimsical place Elena - we had to learn i the hard way. "





( Good night fir you folks, gonna hit the bed!)
 
Elena nodded solemnly. She jumped to conclusions too soon it seemed. She stood up slowly and started back to the cottage. If no food, she knew to at least get some sleep. Elena offered them one last thin smile and opened the door to allow artificial light spilling out.


"Good night. Im going to do some thinking. Promise tomorrow Ill be helpful."


She shut the door without waiting for a reply.


She wandered into the nearest room and grabbed a lantern, laying down anddrowsily recording in her new found book until asleep.


 
(Its late for me too!)
 
As she slept her glow evened out and she didn't light up the area like she would if she were awake. Her embers glowed and her hair sprawled around her in a mess as indisvisual strands glowed in pulses. A dream pulled her from her mind as she slept.


The night was cloudy and dark as lightening pulsed in the sky spreading over the dreary clouda like veins and Joy flew through the air care-free. Little did she know what would happen next, the forest turned to sea and waves splashed as high as she flew. The large wave hit her and Joy shifted to human without control and plummeted to the stormy seas below. Joy tossed and turned as the dream darkened and trapped her at the bottom of the sea. Her flame surged as her mind tried to protect herself from her own mind and she rolled over in her sleep making whimpering noises and not the pleasent kind.


"No!" She called from the bottom of the sea. She coughed and tried to swim up but slowly her breaths stopped and her eyes didn't glow. Her hair lost its shimmer as she let her final breath free.





Joy screamed. A phoenix tear was a gorgeous view and the magic made it all the better, a phoenix battle cry was fierce and strong but a phoenix scream was loud and unsettling scaring who ever near.
 
After everyone else went to sleep Nyr watched the full moon for a little while before she herself headed back to the cottage to see the others.


Silence was what welcomed her, everyone sleeping soundly, their minds long lost in the realm of dreams. She smiled as she silently walked out of the room to find her own sleeping place.


As she was searching she heard a scream from an another room. Seeing that others were still slumbering she hurried in the room to check out what caused the loud noise and she found Joy there, twisting around troubled in her sleep. Even in her human form she was as blazing and as radiant as the phoenix itself. Nyr stood beside her, ignoring the small flames she touched Joy's forehead, trying to calm her down.


" Worry not, blessed phoenix. " she whispered to her " I did not have the time to properly thank you for your deeds. Now know that the Dread Raven watches over your sleep. "


She sprout her wings, and although her left one was broken she could still shroud the girl between her ebony feathers, creating a protective circle around her.


" I will not allow the demons to hurt you. I will sit here until it dawns and pry to Mother Moon to grant you sweet dreams. This is the least I could do for you. "


She sat beside her silently, watching her sleep. Yes, she will guard her, not letting her flame wither - and it seemed that the Moon also aided her in her duty. Its silver rays touched the troubled girl's face, soothing her with their curing light. She had pushed herself to her limits for creating so many tears for them today - she needed to get the best treatment Nyr knew to give.
 
Rose was asleep in a tree again after creating one of her branch nests. She saw flashes of different moments being sent to her from an unknown source. O e of them cane to her...it was a large silver dragon sitting on a throne with a larger throne next to it, then a huge red dragon, like herself, came in rubbed cheeks with the silver one and sat on the throne next to it. Then they both looked directly to her and said in dragon tongue Come home, Rosella. Rose gasped and jolted awake still in the nest with the sun just peaking over the horizon. She looked around and sighed calming herself down she got up jumped out of the tree and went inside.


Rose walked in and got herself breakfast, it was an assortment of many berries. She sat down with them thinking about the vision. What did it mean? She thought to herself not paying attention to her surroundings...
 
((I will assume it is the morning of the next day now))


Ward had been sleeping on the roof in gryphon form, listening idly to conversations in and outside the cottage. His ears were quite keen. Now he opened his eyes and yawned, exposing the pink inside of his mouth to the bright blue sky. He shook his head vigorously, making his ears flop from side to side like a dog and then rolled over and rubbed his back and wings on the soft moss.


"Good morning!" He called to no one in particular.


A warm summer breeze decided it was going to join them for a while. With one elegant motion Ward rolled over and leapt down to the ground.


"We should pack some provisions and be off soon. The faster we get to Branbern castle the better."


He poked his head through a broken window and watched as the glass shards were slowly climbing back up to the frame. Magic was very convenient.


"Hello in there! Wakey wakey!" He cried. "Ah, good morning Rose, did you sleep well?"
 
Eamon yawned as he slowly woke up from his much needed slumber. He might not have any physical wounds remaining from yesterday's fight, but his magic was still wounded.


Eamon did what he always did every morning when he woke, he walked over to his sword and took a few swings at the air with it, to him this was his way of greeting FableWood, his way of promising his home that he will be here to protect it for a very long time.


Eamon heard Ward's voice, and he was not at all surprised that his old friend was already awake, he always imagined Ward as the type of person to up early, flying around in the sun and enjoying the fresh beams of sunlight.


Eamon decided to be a little barbaric this morning, doing this by climbing out of his window instead of using the door. He jumped out, and even before his feet hit the ground, he transformed by shouting the words PHASE 2. He spread his wings and filed him high into the sky.


He soared around the house for a few seconds, enjoying the wind on his feathered wings and the way it blew his hair. Soon he spotted Ward and Rose below and took a deadly fall towards them, but he opened his wings before impact and landed softly on the ground.


"Morning Ward old friend, you too Rose, new friend. How was your night?"


@Wild Born
 
Joy jolted awake her flames surging with her, she looked at Nyr and hugged her "Thank you." She whispered "I had the most horrible nightmare." I got up and gained my composure.


"How did you do that? I was in the middle of a horrifying dream but then it just stopped." She said as she quickly grabbed some food then sat back down "Sometimes I almost set things on fire in my sleep because I get so scared and my head tries to protect me but it doesn't realize I am dreaming."
 
Nyr smiled happily as she forced her wings to vanish.


" I am a child of the night. Mother Moon has taught me how to keep nightmares and bad dreams at bay. Well, at least I try that is. "


She searched her pockets and found a little bit of leftover bread and she started to munch it with satisfaction.


Nyr felt the blistering rays of the sun and fell to her knee in exhaustion. She had not realized that is was the power of the Moon which kept her energized all along... she felt exhaustion creeping over her as slowly she managed to push herself up. Now in daytime she felt much weaker than during night... the curse she had to bear.


Trying to guise her weakness she smiled at Joy.


" I hope you had a relaxing sleep. I still couldn't properly thank you for what you have done for me. I am in your debt. "
 
She could tell something was wrong "No I am in your debt for getting rid of that dream." Joy said well smiling "Now get some sleep a nap can do wonders for exhaustion." She said the shifted phoenix and bursted out the door. She saw Eamon, Rose and Ward so she flew towards them then shifted right in front of them "Good morning." She says to them well smiling.
 
Nyr watched Joy rushing out the door but she did not want to take her advice. No, she had to be strong for all of them... exhaustion will not get the best of her, it would only hinder them all. She forced herself up, her legs still trembling. Mustering her strength and composure she managed to start walking proudly outside to meet the others.


She saw that Joy, Eamon, Rose and Ward were already having a discussion.


" Good morning to you all. I hope you had a pleasant night. Today seems to be a beautiful day, I recommend not wasting any minute. "
 
Elena awoke with a strong ache throughout her body which dulled the more aware the was. Not dead, not.. We'll not even on earth. She went back over the names of those she knew now and stood up, approaching a table with a small mirror. One look revealed a head of out of control curls and dark circles under eyes.


She snuck back out to where the others were, disheartened to a slightly visible degree. Her not so morning person attitude didn't help.


"..Morning"
 
I crossed my arms. I didn't want Nyr getting hurt simply because she was exhausted. I greeted Elena "You had a good sleep didn't you." I said well noticing she was tired. My playful side woke up and I shifted Phoenix in front of Elena hoping the flames would wake her up. I flew around her then perched on her shoulder, I was still quite young so I was only the size of an Eagle and my fire that only burned evil was probably a comforting warmth.
 
"Good morning all of you." Ward said with a pleasant nod. Smiling with a beak was impossible but he gave it a good shot.


"Agreed" Ward replied to Nyr, but he tilted his head with concern and leaned closer to her to speak softly: "What you did last night has taken a large toll on you. We need you as strong as you can be, for no doubt the dark forces will have much more in store for us before we reach Branbern." The gryphon reached out to touch her forehead with the tip of his beak. A faint light began to glow. "I am not certain this will solve the issue, but I can link my energy to yours, you may draw on my strength until we find away to return your own. Also..." He turned sideways to regard her from over his shoulders. "If it wouldn't be awkward for you, you can ride on my back for a while if you like."
 
Rose looked to all them...she didn't want to yell them about the dream, yet. Till she knew what it meant and replied " Morning ". Rose looked to her mark she gently touched the bright red scales
 
Nyr looked almost offended. She did not need help, she could handle herself!


" I thank you for your offer, Ward, but I think I will be fine. I should be able to... "


Then she blacked out. Losing all her strength her legs give in and fell to her back on the floor. Fortunately for her her broken wings instinctively popped out and slowed her fall, making her to plummet to her own wings and not the cold floor. Her energy completely drained she fell into a dreamless slumber which allowed her to recuperate. Hopefully fast enough not be a burden for everyone else.
