Tales Of The Mighty Dragonair

"Where are we going again?" she asked for the tenth time already, and he repeated the same answer over to her.

"To attack some armies nearby."

"And how did you know about them?"

"A hunch."

"Liar!"

"Hehehe."

This was the tenth time for such conversation to occur! They flew for hours, first bypassing the mountain reach before finding more mountains in the distance.

There was a valley in between, linked to the valley inside the mountains he once visited. After that it was only a stretch of mountains, with no signs of life at all!

"Are you sure we are enough?" she again asked, for the fifth time!

"I told you, gosh why are you so tense like this!" he didn\'t say his usual answer as he felt greatly annoyed with her constant questions.

"I… I just want to be sure the two of us will be enough."

"We will."

"Sigh, it\'s boring flying silently for hours! I miss that chatty dragon!"

"Tina? C\'mon, you are relieved she isn\'t here!"

"No way! Yes I can\'t deny she gets on my nerves so fast each time, yet she at least creates some noise and life here."

"Why don\'t you speak then?"

"I\'m!"

"You are only asking!"

"Aren\'t questions words too?"

"Sigh," he simply decided to ignore her from now on. The mountains were almost about to reach an end, as they started tapering their peaks to the ground; forming a series of hills and wide valleys.

Despite the green color jumping in front of their eyes, they didn\'t spot any sign of life anywhere.

"Are you sure we aren\'t lost?"

"Shh, you are noisy! We are on the right track."

"I hope so."

She then went into silence, yet when they delved outside the mountain she was surprised by something. "Here is the place where a mighty empire once lived," she muttered, before turning to glance at him, "did you know that? Did you choose this place on purpose?"

"A mighty empire? Yours?"

"No, mine lied to the north from your city, this is the south west where another rival empire lied."

Arthur didn\'t know what to say to her, yet he understood why many original inhabitants of this world lived here. "I just hope to find some resources and population here."

"I bet, this empire hailed reign over a great stretch of lands, known as the largest empire in our world in size and population."

"They seemed to be the strongest empire in your world."

"No, not even close. Even my empire wasn\'t the strongest out there," she said before wenting into silence for moments, "the strongest of all was some scary empire with such advanced technology that we thought it might not perish. It was the empire where the idea of the castle of the sky was born."

Arthur was reminded of his strange visit to the past. \'Was I moved to that empire at that time?\' he wondered to himself before noticing something on the horizon.

"It\'s a town," Sara muttered before adding, "it\'s a cluster of towns."

She was right, as the closer the got there the more towns and villages appeared in front of their eyes. Their appearance was spotted from far, and it seemed to cause some ruckus already.

"They look energetic, hehehe."

She seemed to enjoy the state of fear emanating from this town, laing Arthur realize the old relation between her empire and the empire that lived here wasn\'t good.

"Don\'t cause problems here, we came to get them to work for us," he warned.

"I know, don\'t worry about me," she nodded before the two reached the outskirts of this cluster of towns.

Arthur never saw such a cluster before in this world; stretching for miles east and west, extending to no end seemingly to the distant horizon.

He stood there in the air glancing at them, and the villagers living underneath him glanced back; with doubt and much fear.

"Make the introduction for me," he said as he couldn\'t speak in human tongue while in dragonair\'s form.

"Listen up, we came from the city behind the mountains to free you all. We know you lived your entire lives under the shackles of slavery and fear, now we are going to give your life meaning. Willy here is our lord, a mighty lord who clashed head to head with those dark clans you fear and serve, and won! Anyone interested in changing his life and taking a different path; a courageous path, please step forward and be ready to leave."

Her words were loud, arrogant, yet Arthur didn\'t interfere. "Being arrogant is better than being hostile," he said to himself while watching the villagers everywhere whispering between themselves.

"Are the legends true then?" suddenly a feminine voice came from a spot not too far from the two. A girl appeared, in her early twenties, with the power of youth firing up all over her sexy body.

Tall and beautiful, that was what Arthur noticed about her. She had her long hair grouped together to form a rounded shape behind her head, giving her the impression to have two heads!

Her eyes were wide, with their faint green color giving Arthur the impression of looking at a tranquil scenery. Yet he knew she was strong, with that long bow held with her hand and these numerous arrows she carried on her shoulders.

"Who are you to speak? Identify yourself," Sara arrogantly said, feeling some challenge with this confident strong beauty.

"I\'m Nara, the leader of this place, and other places," she said before ignoring Sara and focusing on Arthur, "we heard many rumors that were close to being myths. About a man, descending from the sky, removing all the tattoos and can empty entire towns in hours with no trace left.

A shadow, appearing everywhere without the restriction of time or place. A mighty person who can turn into a dragon, fighting great battles with no fear; and winning them all!"

Arthur couldn\'t speak, yet he was impressed with this girl.. "Take a tour around the area, see if there are any traps here," he muttered and his words were heard to Nara like roars.
