"If you actually came here, you must understand the position your people are in and what we have to offer. Regardless of your pride.
That was what it was like for dragons too. Now we are relied on as some of the most powerful within this alliance and city.
We have our own territories."
"You and your people would live within my water dragon territory.
There is space, but that's just the truth of the matter." There was a slight feeling that Current wasn't being respected, however, he also felt that the water wyvern king before him didn't want to admit all of this right then and there.
"Just follow me. The lake we made is connected to every single waterway and even the nearby river was connected to it all for transportation.
You saw the boats, they are an important part of what makes everything run around here. But they had larger ones.
. Ships the size of your true form, if not bigger.They are also made of metal but still float and carry dangerous weapons."
Since Current couldn't just get the water wyvern king to speak with his doubts, Current was showcasing the strength that Genesisis possessed.
He wanted to see if that was what could make the wyvern with him finally speak up. Or at least give some form of response at all.
"I assume Su told you and the sky wyvern queen these things. She is honest, but she could defeat you and every wyvern you have with behind you.
She wouldn't do that though. She has the power and choses to wield it only for protection.
She would be protecting you too." to Current, this felt like a dangerously slow flow of conversation.
"Territory is pointless. Even with a great deal your people can die when hunted.
Have the dragons ever been hunted and watched their queen perish? Have your eggs been smashed within the nest leaving you without children for years? Would you blindly trust anyone or anything even if your instincts told you to do so? What if they were close to the earth wyverns whom you have fought in the past?"
Current took a deep breath while looking at the water wyvern king. He and the others had assumed there was trouble between the wyverns.
They were a more violent species of monster before they had become a proper race. Especially the earth wyverns who had been much higher in numbers and safe places to live within mountains.
While he wanted to judge them, Current understood that if the dragons were not brought together by a nature dragon in the past, they would most likely have become much more separated. They had been on that path before a nature dragon appeared to unite them and create a joint record.
The potential for endless dragon villages fighting one another without mercy or care for whatever else was around was there. It had a pretty grave consequence too since the ancient monsters had done similar things.
They had battled and killed whenever they could. This caused plenty of them not to exist any longer in today's world.
"While I wish to reprimand you, I will not. Your past against whatever earth wyverns that you battled or did not offer a safe haven for the sky wyverns is a past that you must learn to overcome.
The sky wyvern queen is clearly looking for a way to survive in the long term. You, may want to try to understand why she desires that over other options here.
"
A slight growl escaped the water wyvern king's mouth before he looked away from Current and began to walk toward a busier street. Current didn't feel any hostile intent and just let the qatar wyvern king walk.
He couldn't be left alone, but he didn't need to be confined.
"I am quite old you know, but you are lending me your side like a hatchling."
The sky wyvern queen did not feel wrong saying this, nor did she feel bad. Instead, she was noticing an energy in her body that she had not felt before.
Not in many years at least.
"Helping a guest in my home is exactly what I need to do.
And, you are walking much better now that you are here and are being influenced by the magic tower over there. We also have rune formations so that the mana is more condensed which should make it easier for you to do anything that revolves around your body.
"
These unfamiliar things were completely lost on the sky wyvern queen. She just looked where Walker pointed as they traveled toward the cathedral since healing was the most important part of this visit before there was any form of planning for an alliance.
"You should have figured things out a little better by now." The sky wyvern queen looked at Walker dead in the eyes.
"I will be dying sooner than later. Whether or not I get healed, I will need to leave behind a child with the goal to become a queen as well.
And that is something impossible for us as we are now. The very same for that prickly and icy king.
"
"You won't be dying any sooner or even within a short time now that you are here. We can help give you all the time that you need to be able to teach or pass on what a new queen needs to represent your people."
Walker's words made the mana vibrate slightly.
The words that anyone would say so that someone would feel better.
It was the same as the few sky wyverns left nuzzling up to the queen to show loyalty and caring, but for Walker, these words were more. As he spoke, the manas around him reacted.
It was like he was speaking for the world and existence too. More like he was stating an indisputable fact that was true to the very core of all things.
"Willing to go against what should be? Fine then, for a future that is more than the bones like the fire and light wyverns, I will give it a chance. Show me…" her words trailed off while Walker brought her within the cathedral and the myriad of colors and light as Alice sang accompanied by musicians came to the sky wyvern queen's ears.
For the first time, she cried tears of hope and joy.
"Look, it's the royal water dragon, I dare you to go say hi!"
"No way! He's a dragon, he might eat you.
"
"Both of you are dumb. Dragons only eat people who want to hurt their homes or treasures.
And Genesis is a gem. My mom said so.
"
Three small children argued back and forth before a fourth, yet to speak, walked up and stood in front of the water wyvern king and Current.
"You don't look like a dragon.
But if you're with a royal one, does that make you his brother?"
"Dragon? I'm the water wyvern king. We are better and can fight more than a dragon.
You should see how fast we swim too. Way better."
the water wyvern king spoke and reached out a hand. Current was completely taken aback by this.
Where had the cold and frosty personality gone? Where had the irritated and angry words of the water wyvern king gone?
"King? Where's the queen then. There's always a queen.
Or are you looking for a princess to make a queen?" The small child was curious, and completely blunt. It was just what children
Did.
"Hmm, queen, she was strong and very powerful when she reigned over the islands filled with turtles and sharks. But she moved on from the world after a battle.
You can be my princess for the day. The water wyverns have never had a princess.
I know what one is though, a king should be educated you know, even reading angel's books became easy once I looked at them long enough."
Current was again shaken.
This water wyvern king had clearly learned more as a monster than he let on. But his emotions were swaying him as a monster and as a recognized race.
Now, more like he buried intelligence and who he was to ensure he was a powerhouse for his people, even as they dwindled in number.
"That little demon is a boy, he would be a prince for a day.
And I would say, these four are more interested in you than me right now. The earth wyverns do not come out much, so, you would be the first wyvern many people meet within Genesis."
Current's voice was soft. He didn't let himself see the water wyvern king as he had before.
The price this king had paid to be what was needed by the others was clearly steeper than what Current had recognized.
"We'll show you the market! They have forest elf chocolates for sale today!" The water wyvern king had no chance to understand what that even was, nor to rebuke Current.
Just time to be pulled along in this strange place and strange life.
