Master Of None

"Of course they will be. We need the ships to be able to keep up with the golem ship. That should have the fastest speed since it was made to house water elemental spirits. They already have the ability to make it travel faster through the water." Ventus seemed to think that the golem ship was just a more complicated ship. She had yet to hear enough detail about what was going on with it.

In the next half hour, Walker explained the details of the golems made for their journey, the ship's abilities, and the high number of water elemental spirits within the ship and golems. This seemed to bring Ventus up to speed with why the modifications to wind runes had to happen.

"In that case, let me take the carvers with me. The ship I was with should be fairly close. They can begin work without you. If I am there, the wind elemental mana will be more than enough." Ventus gave a tone that told Walker and Gil that she would not take no for an answer.

This was a surprise since they both expected that she would want to remain around to speak with Current, Rise, and Mordant. However, none of them had come to greet her. It was odd but to be fair, this was the time that they had to begin preparations.

When things came to the open ocean, the only monsters they were assured to come across were large monsters. This wasn't because the ocean was just massive, it was also because the ships were larger than the average monsters that would be out there. That made the ships appear to be prey for the largest of monsters that would live in the ocean. As many people that thought of ways to counter this, there weren't any,

Any monster would go after a larger food source if it could with the size that it had. That was a basic survival instinct. The monsters lived in the largest environment in the entire world for as much as everyone knew. This meant that they would have to hunt food in a place with so many different hiding spots that they might not find food often. The traveling ships were sure to attract the eyes of a few of these larger opportunistic monsters.

Ventus had gathered up the wind carvers who were resting in the open and fresh air of the top deck. They seemed happier to have a chance to get the work done sooner than anything. Walker would have thought that they would be happier to work with a dragon, but it seemed that rune carvers were an interesting breed of people. A kind that preferred to be able to focus on the fact that they could improve their skills over meeting higher ranking individuals.

"If that was Ventus, then those two are Ignus and Terron?" Gil pointed up at the direction Ventus was leaving in her dragon form with a lifeboat full of rune carvers. The figures that Gil pointed out were very high up but soon came in to shape.

"Yes, that would be them. I knew that Terron would end up coming. Whether Ignus talked him in to it or he came because he wanted to fight with the other dragons, doesn't matter. It's another dragon that we have to help us." Walker was very happy with this. He knew that Terron was an earth dragon. The open ocean would be tough for him.

It wasn't that the earth dragons were afraid of the water, this was just not their element. They also didn't often fly so seeing that Terron had used his wings meant that he had a lot of determination to be there. There were even some lesser earth dragons born without wings. From what Walker had heard, that was actually seen as a blessing. It made it easier for them to travel through the cave and tunnels made in the earth.

What Walker had seen of Terron was different. He still had wings the same way that any dragon would. A royal dragon had status and the ability to take to the sky was part of that status. A royal dragon had the most majestic features that stood for their elemental affinity. They could reign in the sky to the depths of the earth. It would be foolish to expect them not to take all that they saw as theirs. Their pride already saw the world as something for them to explore and take as they saw fit.

"Oh, they are going to land. Let's get away a little." Walker pulled Gil back as Terron and Ignus changed forms and landed with a little force. The ship rocked slightly making everyone glance around but then return to their tasks. They had no concerns about reprimanding two royal dragons. They knew of the strength they had and would not be pushing them away.

"Gather up nice and neat huh?" Ignus seemed like he was actually impressed by the ships waiting and preparing. It could have also been the dragonkin that were openly training that made him happy too. Some of the fire elemental dragonkin had clearly improved their skills since he last saw them. But that was a pure result of seeing the other dragonkin and races train. Their skills were sure to grow in adversity.

Terron was just looking around at the ship. He seemed to be more interested in going to the lower decks than wasting time above. But that meant that he would be more comfortable under the metal layers of the ship. It would be dark and a tight squeeze for him. Therefore, it was more closely related to the caves he preferred.

"Care for a tour? The runes were just altered to help with the weight and speed of the ship while we travel." Walker gave a nod to Gil who was clearly looking for a chance to move and try to work on more archery related experiments. There was also the fact that he had already been dragged away to work on rune things. Now he was free again. He could apply some of the new things he learned about wind to dome arrow training.

"Tour, it's the same as the other ships. Just bring me to the forge. I want to be somewhere warm. Terron will come too. He is sick of flying around aimlessly. He dealt with a few things on his way here." This attitude was normal for Ignus. He was fiery as ever. But Terron was clearly a little off.

"Should I be worried about what happened?" Walker saw Terron change facial expressions finally. He grimaced slightly.

A dead wyvern was found by a few travelers. That is why I left your village. It was a bit old and died after fighting a skeletal dragon living alone." there was a harsher tone in Tereon's voice than Walker had heard. "The skeletal dragon was unhappy to see me but I made it bow. It told me that it was flying to hunt for food and was attacked. It lost an arm to that wyvern before killing it."

The skeletal dragons were known for living alone. Same with some of the darkness dragons. They didn't always like to be with other dragons which was fine as long as they were not rogue dragons. But what made Terron angry was that a dragon could be hurt to such a degree when it came to a weak and pathetic bloodline like the wyverns.

The wyverns shared some of the blood dragons had but at a significantly smaller amount. They did not have the pure elemental affinities that the dragons pride themselves on. Nor did they have intelligence. Just the fact that they had even a drop of dragon blood in them was a massive insult. Unintelligent and corrupted by multiple manas without it being a natural mana? That was a vicious insult of nature to the dragons.

"If one was found, then that skeletal dragon saved many. A single wyvern could have caused a lot of issues. I think we should have left more to protect the villages…" Walker was worried but saw Terron shake his head.

"Terron dealt with that, the champions left behind are patrolling the skies. Every single elder is as well. He went to the royal dragon court to ask the elder for reigning authority. The elder took over from there. It is a special rule of the dragons. The oldest among us has the right to take control of every village in unique circumstances." Ignus spoke as if this was just an average thing to say before moving to the stairs. He wanted to be somewhere with fire and Walker just had to go along while listening more.
