Chapter 2649: Chapter 2649

Midnight to hesitant steps while Alice began singing a song to heal the many wounds all over the slim dragonkin's body. Walker was sure this was a dragonkin and Midnight could smell the dragon blood in its body telling her it was one. However, she had never seen a dragonkin looking so weak. So vulnerable.

This betrayed the image that the dragon race and those that stood for the dragon race were weaker or that they were not able to protect themselves or their people. It went against the innate dragon's pride within midnight and she felt wrong. No, she was disgusted by this situation since this was radically against what she knew of how a dragonkin should live.

The white scales seemed to be a little duller, dragonkin hadn't been getting enough nutrients and failing to process the light mana that the dragonkin clearly needed for its affinity. Other than his, the eyes were slightly yellowed showing illness that was now being partially treated due to Alice's singing. Not that Su wasn't preparing some bandages for the deeper wounds so that the dragonkin's body could heal properly over a longer time so it would have more nutrients and energy for itself.

"Why are you here?" Midnight asked with a clear demand for an answer. She was keeping her unease hidden but Walker felt it clearly through their bind. He knew very well that Midnoth wanted the answers as fast as possible for the very reason that this shouldn't even be an event happening to them.

There should never be a dragonkin alone and afraid.

The eyes fixed on Midnight as something akin to shock flashed through them. Once the dragonkin realized that Midngoth was a dragon taking dragonkin form to speak with her, it was very clear that the small dragonkin had remembered some sort of proper greeting.

The dragonkin fell to her knees and looked down. Instead of showing answer or pride when looking at Midnight a dragon more powerful than it as the dragonkin of the world used to and most still did regardless, it was fearful. "I apologize for standing in your way. You may take my life if it will not dirty-"

"STOP!!!!!" The roar that Midnight released was potent. She had never felt too horrified.

This dragonkin was kneeling before her, it was saying she could take its life? It was terrified of her. This was wrong. So wrong. It was not the way it should be. It was against all she knew that came with pride as a dragon.

"Midnight, you hurt her ears. If you scare my patient and she does not heal, I will not be helping you when you need it either." The chill that came with Alice's words were not one that came from Alice as a friend. It was a threat from a healer trying to help an injured person. Someone that they were staking their life and all of the knowledge they had to heal on.

"I am sorry. I was uncomfortable. It's wrong." Midnight's voice was soft. She hadn't expected she would end up . She thought she was going to explore the elemental planes. Not to find an injured dragonkin that went against what she knew and believed to be the way of the dragons and dragonkin.

"Let me speak to her Midnight." Su was a little more soft spoken, her natural talent for defending others plus being a half dragon helped her in this situation very much.

"I am Su and these are the members of my family. We come from the world, the center of all the elemental planes if you want to call it that. Where we come from the dragonkin are protected by elder dragons or even royal dragons. They are never alone, weak, or harmed in such a way. They do not bow or shiver in fear unless they are criminals. Why are you ?"

The dragonkin sensed the dragon blood in Su, it was an innate feeling. But with that feeling weakened due to Su not being born a dragon or even being capable of being a full dragon, it was easier to look up against the dragonkin's own emotions. It was also clear that the soft tone that Su took was enough to calm and smooth the situation a little. Something that Su had taken from Remey when she saw how great Remey was with orphans and scared children. Not that Su would admit she had learned it from Remey.

"I was sent to gather the changing flowers and return with a gift for the young lord. We are disposable and weak so we do not deserve the chance to look upon a true dragon. Thank you for showing kindness to me, I will continue with my duty and return as I must." The dragonkin began to stand but found that Su had a hand on her shoulder stopping her.

"No, whatever has pushed you out here clearly does not deserve your allegiance. You are weakened, injured, and clearly did not receive the care you deserved. We are the kind of people that can not allow that. Midnight, the dragon you saw roar out just now, will personally make her way to speak to this young lord and set the rules straight. I know this and so does she, no dragon would ever allow their dragonkin to suffer like you are and how I assume others are."

The dragonkin felt as if there was nothing to say. These words sounded so illogical. They way they were put together in a form that was not how she had ever heard. "It might be hard to understand, but if it helps all of us have some sort of hero title, or saintess title, or we just can't handle seeing someone who is injured and needs our help. So whatever we were doing will just have to be ignored until we go speak to whatever fool thinks they can abuse their people." Remey cracked her knuckles while everyone looked at Walker for permission to start off in a completely different direction.

"It's as she said. As the one holding the title true natural dragon, I might as well take a few steps toward using the dragon skills I have learned. Sorry everyone, but the radiant light elves can be visited afterwards." He didn't feel terrible about the change, he felt relieved. If they hadn't come across this weakened dragonkin, then they would have found a body when they returned or no one would have ever known it had been lost to the wilderness because of a foolish dragon leading and ordering her.

The entire party rallying right in front of this dragonkin left her stunned. She was a dragonkin that served as she was told. As all of her fellow dragonkin were told. She and some others were not warriors so they were sent out to do what they must. They were only worth what they were worth.

"You need to rest and heal. I will take charge of your life from now on. Each of us will take you in. Whether you wish to live here, live in the world we come from, or even if you wish to fight ten dragons just to steal a loaf of bread, we will be supporting you as long as you are safe and happy."

The way that the dragonkin looked at them was showing everything clear as day. The dragonkin had no expression. Not even confusion could grace her face as she tried to comprehend the changes and what was happening. Nothing had ever happened in her wildest dreams.

"Now, tell us where we are going to get to your village. We are going to visit some of the radiant light elves but it seems that we have something more important to do first." This dangerous hunting ground where Gil expected to need to scout out enemies and prepare for battles had changed in to a mission to help those in need. He wanted to be upset he wasn't doing what he wanted but he knew what the right thing was to do here.

"We are close." The dragonkin was able to mumble this out but she was also feeling the warmth in Alice's healing magic and the potions that Remeye had just handed her to drink. It was much warmer. So much warmer. It felt much better.

"Midnight, Su, Remey. I think we need to make a little more of a show. You too Onyx. While Gil and Alice help our new friend here, we should arrive the same way that a dragon would arrive anywhere, don't you think?" Walker was preparing to show the might of what a dragon should show. To act as he had learned from the dragons he had met thus far.
