Master Of None



Fire. That was what Ignus was. What he studies. Who he thought he would always be. With fire, came brutal strength. The ability to turn every enemy to ash. It did not matter how often he was challenged or what he was challenged with, fire made Ignus a force of nature. Unstoppable. 

The more that Ignus had seen, the more he had begun to change. He had recently found something that stood out from his many years of life as a royal fire dragon. He had found some humans that changed their ideas and pushed themselves in to every single race. Every single kingdom. Every single facet of the world. 

These humans had broken traditions. This had originally stirred Ignus's anger. Breathed more life in to the flames of hatred for any weaker bearings. Yet, he had been proven wrong. His flames had done nothing to such humans. No matter how he threatened, he was met with compromises, promises that seemed impossible, and accomplishments that did not match the perceptions he had. 

These events had opened up his stagnant path to a brand new possibilities. The fire elemental mana that he had spent years studying had begun to advance. His understanding that he had gripped through emerging himself in lava filled volcanoes had been pushed forward just by humans taking their own efforts to join hands with even the dragonkin below him. 

From that point, Ignus had seen how even a few weeks with this new place called Genesis had brought the useless dragon hatchlings that he tossed out to have a future. A useful future as alchemists which was the first for a dragon. Something that no dragon had wasted time on before. 

However, that was also an age where affinity potions had not existed. Potions that had a direct impact of speeding up elemental understanding. That every single dragon had immediately wanted more than territory, strength, or even pride. Not that pride lost out for long. Dragon's were a proud race, it would be impossible for them to completely ignore that. 

Yet, Ignus found himself following what the humans had said and even sitting next to a human to assist in creating such potions. Things that had never been recorded in history happened right as he had thought that he would remain at the same position for the rest of his life. Leaving only the same legacy as he had been given by his predecessor. 

"For a fire dragon as myself to have friends… what a complicated world." Ignus mumbled as he thought of the hours in the alchemy lab and the massive changes he had witnessed. The impossible things. He hated that he had changed somehow, but he also felt the fires burn stronger for a future that no dragon had seen. He would grab on to that flame and make it his no matter what. 

Around the darkness, flames sparked up from the walls. Large stone carved pillars were made to hold embers. The proof of attempts that had been made to break them and use them were everywhere. Runes forcefully carved seemed to have been left to defend the ruins here. The legacy of the flame dominator dragon. 

But more evidence that someone had attempted to enter the ruins was clear. In the center of this massive cavern were many large pillars covered in draconic fire runes. Small flames burning around it that seemed to burn anything that would get near. Ignus even felt the flames directed at himself. But he was a fire dragon. They could not harm him. 

As if to prove this, Ignus walked toward the large pillars. He became engulfed in flames hotter than most. Everyone from the top of the ruins could see this. The darkness had been driven away. The fiore elemental mana densely erupted through the opening. This was why the altar had been sapping away mana. This intense fire elemental mana had been left condensed by the flame dominator dragon to protect his knowledge. His legacy. 

While the earth dominator dragon had left a legacy only an earth dragon could access, the flame dominator dragon had done the same in a different way. With Ignus here, he was able to touch the pillar and instantly shift the flames to expose the true form of these pillars. 

The large slabs of volcanic stone had been carved with unique draconic flame runes. They all spoke of strengths that Ignus had never imagined. Things that he still could not touch upon without learning more about fire elemental mana. "I will expect even more high fire affinity potions in the future!" 

"Ha! You have to pay for those!" Remey roared back in her own way earning her a slight growl from Ignus. But this was something only the two could share. Remey had been able to somehow match Ignus. She wasn't just a human to her anymore. 

"Get down here and learn something then. You have that grand fire spirit with you. Or do you want to be some weak human that relies on someone else's power?" Mordant, Ventus, Current, and Rise all took a sharp breath in. None of them could comprehend what they had just heard. 

"I'll help you down. You might be stuck studying for a while, but I don't think-"

"You better not hog all the good fire knowledge for yourself. I can't do much with whatever is left over!" Remey jumped right down through the hole. Walker just felt that his words were nothing as Ignus casually caught Remey and went back to looking at the runes. However, he also began to show her things he found interesting. 

"Who is that?" Current was still stunned. He had never imagined that this would happen. Ignus never shared. He never called anyone, even his dragonkin, to share something with. 

"A fake dragon. We have failed to see the imposter that has stolen the strength of our lost royal dragon Ignus." Ventus was also fairly convinced they were looking at someone completely false. 

"He may have lowered himself in to a hole, but he isn't who I imagined him to be anymore." Rise just accepted it before walking away. She had every intention of reaching the sunlight and regaining the large amounts of light elemental mana she had already lost. 

"It seems that he isn't the only one of us that has gotten closer to all of you." Mordant had thought he was the one that took the lead in gaining relationships with humans or any other race in general. But here he was, outdone by Ignus of all people. It was both a little depressing but also very impressive. 

"We might have left them alone too much in the alchemy lab. Now he might be closer than we are with Remey." Su was just as shocked that Ignus and Remey had bunched up to learn about fire elemental mana and dragon skills like this. She hadn't seen this coming in the least. 

"I think it makes sense. They are both hard headed and ready to blow up like volcanoes. A perfect pair to bond over more destructive flames." Gil laughed a little while he looked down one more time. He knew he could finally take a nap now that this was sorted out. 

This left Walker just standing there wondering what he could do. He was very impressed with this change, but also wondered what it meant for the future. Remey had such an odd meld of skills now. She was learning the flames of alchemy and dragons. Something crazy by anyone's standards. But adding on a unique system and battle style made things all the more mysterious. 

"I guess we might see something a little more out of the ordinary in the future." Walker felt that he couldn't do much about this situation. Instead, he watched as Ignus and Remey began collecting all the volcanic stone slabs. It was clear that Ignus did not intend to keep himself here as Terron had when they were in the wyvern territory. 

It was true that remaining here would not be beneficial. There was very little fire elemental mana to keep him training his understanding. Along with that, there was also a complete lack of materials to make affinity potions for him to learn. Then on top of this was the fact that he did not want to miss the other ruins being discovered. He did not wish to see the other ruins from the dragons forgotten. He had to join his fellow dragons to discover all of their past. Not just one or two parts. 

"I guess we can rest here…" Walker looked over top Midnight and found that she had curled up and fallen asleep right next to Walker while watching things. But Alice was there too, using Midnight as a pillow. It was exactly as it needed to be.
