Pov Arsan (Anomalous Dragon Patriarch):
That boy has gone further than I thought, even for a Chaos Bringer his growth rate is too high, it hasn't even been 10 years since his birth as far as I could investigate from that Ascendant nad Baldr.
"(Even among Selene's children his growth is too fast, it seems artificial...)" ()
"(But who would be behind this? If I'm wrong, then his ability must stand out in so aspect...)" ()
"Duren! Dredge the mory crystal again." ()
"As you wish Father." (Duren)
Duren is one of my youngest children, one of the last to be converted, the only survivor among billions, but I like how he knows how to keep his instincts under control and use his head, so I keep him close.
In a few minutes he returns with a 4-pointed crystal floating while illuminated in white light.
I make the crystal float to my forehead, then touching it with my Aura I see the mories and knowledge that Baldr had about Zenos, it wasn't much, but I see how much he fought, honestly his ability to stay alive until now is a testant to his adaptation.
"He seems to be the cautious type, he also plans before acting and clearly honor ans nothing to him..." ()
"(If he weren't already a Dragon, a Bringer of Chaos and an enemy impossible to reconcile, it would be better to have soone with that talent on our side if he weren't so naive.)" ()
The actions that are marked in Baldr's mory are those of a madman, he sotis saves those who should be abandoned, destroys those who should be allies and drives away those who wish to help, I don't understand what he thinks.
Those around him seem to co from many different races, he has also dared to fight enemies stronger than him many tis, I can't say how he survived for so long.
But I can understand where his strength cos from, he has a similar ability to ours, he becos stronger by eating, but his ability is different, inferior doesn't seem to be the key word, perhaps it would be correct to say that his focus is different.
"Tell the others to be prepared, in a few days we'll move, all of us!" ()
"As you wish, but are you sure you won't be hasty?" (Duren)
"They still have a lot of my brothers." (Duren)
"I know, but he won't kill them yet, they're too good bait to lose so soon." ()
"He'll try to set up a eting with , but I won't bring him into a nest again, I also won't accept a place he chooses and we can't leave this universe for that since the 2 Abyss Generals out there will interfere." ()
"He won't accept any place I choose and the sa will be true for him, but that's sothing obvious, he'll have a plan, he seems to be soone who likes plans and deceiving his enemies." ()
"(It's going to take more than that to fool .)" ()
"What are we going to do then?" (Duren)
"Trying to guess his plans is useless, what we're going to do is use absolute power to crush his plans." ()
"(I can't let him escape this ti, if I can get my claws into a Chaos Bringer I might not need to search for the remaining keys anymore.)" ()
"Have everyone ready and warned, this ti I'll lead myself." ()
"As you wish, Father." (Duren)
His ability to take control of the nests for himself was sothing I didn't expect, but even he knows that it would only work once, he won't do it again and if he tries we already have counterasures now that we know what to expect.
He carried out several attacks at the sa ti to divide our attention, to make sure he could get as many of my children as possible and to avoid eting with .
He is not soone who sticks to battle tactics, he does not mind stealing, cheating and even performing crazy acts to obtain victory.
I cannot predict what he will do during or after the eting, the most I can predict is what will happen before the eting.
"(We will see if your sche or my power will win in this eting.)" ()
-------------------
Pov Luci (Forr Anomalous Dragon Matriarch):
"Thank you for letting know, dear." ()
I see the image of my son disappear, the image of my children are seen in my eyes, mories of the past, how I helped raise them, how many did not resist, the pain of their deaths.
"Mother, we must join them." (Nóros)
"No, on the contrary, we may have found that we needed to." ()
"The power of Chaos can affect everything, but only a Bringer of Chaos can wield such power without destroying themselves in the process." ()
"He is with our people, many of us are in danger!" (Nóros)
"Dear, we have done a lot throughout our existence, as much as Arsan likes to call us the supre hunters, we are not exempt from being hunted." ()
"As much as it hurts to say this, any death among our people would only be retaliation for what we have done and you know it." ()
"..." (Nóros)
"But they are still our family!?" (Nóros)
"We are not traveling this long for their sake!?" (Nóros)
"Now that almost half of us are on the verge of death, you want us to sit by and watch!?" (Nóros)
"We won't just sit around and watch, but we have to be careful with our timing, a little earlier or a little later could be the difference between which side turns against us." ()
I can imagine what that Arsan is going to do, he's smart, but over ti he's let himself fall into the arrogance of being in possession of great power, he believes that as long as he's the strongest he'll always be within reach of victory.
"(Arsan, you don't understand, even if you win, you lose...)" ()
Becoming an enemy of the only one who could help us, that's going to be difficult, I don't think either side can be stopped at this stage, so all I can do is think about what to do next?
------------------
Pov Zenos:
I watch Mavis leave before sending Samara sowhere else, she's always been soone difficult to deal with, but this must have been the first ti she's really spoken her mind.
"She didn't do it just to tornt her Priestess." (Kalistos)
"You don't either..." ()
"We know how reckless you are, but don't try to do that, your death would trigger a chain of events that would be a catastrophe." (Kalistos)
"I don't intend to kill myself, there's a reason I chose this plan." ()
"Are you confident?" (Kalistos)
"Of course I am..." ()
"(No, but it was the best I could think of.)" ()
"I won't say anything else then." (Kalistos)
She appeared through the door like a normal person and turned around, leaving as normal as she ca in, compared to Mavis she acts more mature and her words are always straight to the point.
Left alone here once again, I find myself thinking about the plan in question, I try to review the plans over and over again, but I get nowhere, there is no safer alternative way to take care of the Anomalous Dragons.
Their numbers are still large, there are also so exceptional ones beside them that have not participated in any battle so far, I managed to catch so of them near the nests, their powers are equal to those of Akatosh and Lolth.
The Anomalous Dragons can end this battle at any ti they want, they were not fighting seriously the whole ti, but now I am not sure anymore.
"I hope it works, but it would be perfect if he at least listened to my proposal." ()
-------------------
2 weeks later.
As expected, he did not accept any eting place that I pointed out and I also did not accept any of the looks he pointed out.
We both will not accept a place that the other chose, in the end we accepted a place that was chosen at random, these discussions were made through a long-distance communication magic, after all this ti the eting would finally happen, but at his suggestion neither of us would go in person, we would send Avatars controlled by us to this eting.
The eting place was a planet that was already dead, it was small and it was scandalous both for our side and for theirs.
I was the first to arrive, I was using a divine magic that created a copy of , Akatosh used the sa magic while Lolth used a different technique.
Soon after we arrived it was his turn, the space outside the Planet's orbit trembled before breaking as a seemingly middle-aged man descended to the ground, his body resembled that of a half-elf with smaller ears and darker skin, his eyes were red, his black hair fell over his shoulders in a disheveled manner, his body surrounded by armor without a helt, two tallic horns rose on his head and his cape was similar to Dragon wings, his body easily exceeding 2 ters in robust height.
"I am Arsan, Patriarch of the Anomalous Dragons." (Arsan)
