Subject: An old friend Author: Bob [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05:19:48 01/03/03 Fri In reply to: Raistlin 's message, "+ Evil One +" on 23:47:32 12/31/02 Tue The now nearly fully mature Tailus swoops lithely down from his usual high perch atop the ragged peak that overlooks the great Lair. He flies painfully, having completed his Ordeal and is now suffering the agony of slow, natural healing. Thankfully his scales no longer appear quite so charred; the blackened layer gradually washed off, but now he is very sensitive to touch, heat and cold until his exposed underscales grow their protective armored coating. Vulnerable, he considers, though aware that his ancient enemy will probably not know. Also marring his body are many white scars, caused by boiling tendrils of water lashing his scales. Those run deep and will probably last between a quarter and a half of a century, not long in a dragon's world. The painful changes are not the only differences in his appearance now, since last he encountered the Shadow Lord. His disproportionately-long wings now no longer appear gangly and awkward but finely, powerfully honed limbs that lie proudly by his side overflowing with potential when he stays on the ground, and burst with realization of that potential when he flies. The rest of his body has acquired the lean but extremely powerful classic Tailus musculature and the hue of his amethyst eyes has deepened into infinity. "Raistlin," he says by way of a courteous greeting accompanied by a graceful but extremely perfunctory bow. "Welcome to the Dark Lair." His voice rasps from his recent torture but it was all worth it; though he knows that if he does not find a Healer soon, his gills may be permanently out of commission. After all, they were never intended to breathe searingly hot water. F&B was not in a merciful frame of mind when they had met. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]

[> [> Subject: ¤The Outsider¤ Author: ¤Jeispera¤ [ Edit | View ] Date Posted: 16:13:20 01/03/03 Fri ~*~*~ [Saphire gaze turns to the newcomer, this Talius called Bob. Oculars studied him with curiosity for she had never known her Father's enemies and she certainly had never heard Bob's name slip past Father's lips. Yes, she was the daughter of the arrogant Shadow Lord. She could be just as ruthless and hot-headed as he. But perhaps some of her Aunts traits had rubbed off 'pon the young 'ness as well for she did more good then evil. Perhaps that was what made her wiser] If Famina is not willing I will help you. If needed. [She nodded to the broken dragon. Lately she had been dabbling in the arts of Healing. And she was beginning to get skilled at it. Little did her Father know about it for he was busy with the Gaians and such. Crania turned as she regarded the Shadow Lord and spoke softly] Da, I will return to Everdark. Someone must keep an eye on the place untill you or Famina or 'Kaal returns.. [Last glance was given to her siblings and their gaurdians. She paused before nodding to Bob and then disappearing into the Shadows] ¤Jeispera¤ ~Everdark Princess~ -The Outsider [ Post a Reply to This Message ]
