Zaydn: "I don't know who they are yet, but that dragon caused the storm... by only beating it's wings..."
(the figure walks over to Zaydn. He is dressed in similar armor to Zaydn, except it's brighter and silver. The gem and lines on his helmet are glowing light green instead of red like Zaydn's...
He looks at Zaydn... he grabs Zaydn and hugs him, sobbing....)
???: "....I've missed you.... my son...."
Zaydn: "...?!"

(looks at the figure cautiously...)
Zaydn: "...prove it.... and tell me... why have you been gone for over 60 years if you really are my father..."
Zaysol: "I really am your father, Zaydn... my name is Zaysol... as for proof.... well.... I have this..."
*he pulls out a locket... inside is a picture of a very young Zaydn with his mother holding him...*
Zaysol: "I swear to you... I am your father... I know what you've been put through... I've seen it all... please... find it in your heart to trust me....."
Zaydn: "If you've seen my life, why didn't you come? Why did you just watch?! Explain yourself!"
Zaysol: "...b-because... I couldn't.... I wasn't allowed to..."
Zaydn: "....what...?"

(Zaysol looks horrified...)
Zaysol: "...no.... no... It's not like that.... no.... I was rescuing a village from the Caelstrom.... I got them to safety... but... I was suck into the heart of the storm.... lightning... intense wind, threatening to rip me & my Drake to shreds....
But... I saw a light at the center... The sky god... Caelius.... He stopped the winds & spoke to me.... he was leaving this world... he would no longer be protecting the skies & watching over the world... he had searched for a long time for a succesor... he chose me... To be the next Lord of the Sky...
I had no choice... He passed his power onto me & my Drake...
*points to the silver dragon...*
I watched from the skies... Oh, how I longed to comfort you... how I wanted to be there for you when she died... How I wanted to stop your suffering... *sobs*
But I've been stuck in the heavens... I had to do my job...
And now I come to you... I was only allowed to come to you to choose my own succesor... you... when I choose to pass on my role, I will give it to you... you are the Prince to the Sky..."
(Zaydn looks into his father's eyes...)
Zaydn: "....a tall tale.... but... I believe you... Father...."
*Zaysol hugs him tightly & sobs*

(the ancient dragon's mind rumbles it's voice in thier heads...)
Dragon: "I am no longer who I once was... I AM CAELSTROM, BRINGER & ENDER OF STORMS. MY NAME LITERALLY MEANS: WORLD-WRECKER."
Zausol: "....I'm... sorry.... Zaydn..."
Zaydn: "...... whatever... It still doesn't really change things... I'm still a cripple... Still an outcast.... still a fool...."
Zaysol: "You're no fool... They were the children of my rivals who only knew hate... Everything will work out, you'll see...."
*pats Zaydn on the back lightly*
(Zaydn jerks and crumples to the ground, convulsing in agony as another siezure strikes him... He sees red, a nasty taste is in his mouth, his ears ring, a foul smell in his nose, and from the center of his back, a searing pain tears through his body...
Zaysol crouches down to his siezing son and bonds his mind with Zaydn's...
He tries to comfort Zaydn, he takes the brunt of the pain and tries to soothe him...)

(Once Zaydn stops convulsing, Zaysol turns his limp body over and takes off of Zaydn's chest armor and examines his back...
Zaysol sobs when he looks on his son's back...
There is a long, jagged scar running from his left shoulder all the way down to his right hip.
On top of that is a large, twisting burn mark from when he was struck by lightning...
Zaysol can't stand it and breaks down, crying...)
Zaysol: *sobs* "...how... how could this happen....? My only son... crippled, from the children of my so-called 'friends'..... *sob* How could I stand to watch this pain for so long...? I should have been there... If I was there, none of this would have happened..."
*he picks up Zaydn in his arms...*
Zaydn: "uuuurrrgggghhh...."
Zaysol: "ssshhhh.... relax... I'm here..."

(the Dragon takes off... and like a ghost it fades into the clouds...
Zaysol looks up...)
Zaysol: "Ugh... no... I need more time... my son needs me... I can't go back now... no... no... NO! I REFUSE! I AM STAYING! FOR ONCE I MY LIFE, I'M GOING TO BE SELFISH, AND STAY WITH THE ONLY THING I HAVE LEFT... my son....."
(he looks down at Zaydn's face...)
Zaysol: "...so was there even a real reason why they left...? Or did they just leave because they could..? If so, then that's bad parenting... of course I shouldn't be talking..."

-Master Serris

11 Oct, 2013, 8:18 pm

Zaysol: "...shameful... truely shameful...... hmmm? ...what is this...?"
(he looks at the entrance to the catacombs...)
Zaysol: "You're hiding something nasty inthere aren't you..?"
(Zaydn regains consiousness, stands on his own, and puts on his armor. He also looks towards the catacombs...)

(Caelstrom roars..... The very heavens shake & rumble...)
Caelstrom: "BAH. I AM A GOD. I COULD CRUSH IT. I WILL FRY IT WHERE IT STANDS."
Zaysol: "..... It's true... I now can control the entire sky... I could increase the air pressure around it so much and in a short amount of time that it will be crushed under it's own weight like a tin can... I can sufficate it... I can cause a lightning-storm in it's very lungs... Not to mention... well..."
*Zaysol points up*
(Lightning arc through the sky... thousands of bolts... seemingly with a mind of their own they are bigger than the Empire State Building right now)
Zaysol: "...Even I don't know my limits... but if you truely have it undercontrol, then it should alright...... right?
If not, I'm ALWAYS watching... I AM the sky. If gets loose, I'll help take it down."

-Master Serris

12 Oct, 2013, 2:24 pm

Zaysol: "........ Well... I do know of a being that could take down, but I have no power there... The End is a... well.... Let's just say it's where these Fellbeasts belong.... If there ever was a place that they should be at, it's there... it's a little like a prison, but far worse... I haven't ever been there or seen it, but I.ve heard stories...."
Zaydn: "meh... giant demonic ghosts.... I know of a way to ki.ll stuff like that..."
*Yenra growls at Zaydn warningly....*

-Master Serris

12 Oct, 2013, 11:58 pm

(Zaydn quickly follows, sword drawn...)
Zaydn: "Let's see this beast..."
Yenra: "Just make sure you don't hurt yourself..."
Zaydn: "Bah, I learned the technique from an End, it'll be fine."
Zaysol: "WHAT?! AN END?!"
*pursues Zaydn*

(Zaydn runs into the cavern, hopping over Eznier's body...
Zaysol goes to Eznier to see if he is alright...
Zaydn summons a white werelight to illuminate the cave...)

-Master Serris

13 Oct, 2013, 6:44 pm

(Zaydn whirls around & dashes outside to face the beast, sword at the ready.
Zaysol looks worried... Yenra is flying high above the clouds, trying to see the beast from a distance)

-Master Serris

14 Oct, 2013, 1:15 am

Zaydn: "HAHAHAHA! You want my soul, don't you? You want me dead, right? Well... HERE TAKE IT!!!"
(He lifts his hand and a pure black orb appears... It grows extremely large, as big as Yenra...
It begins suck suck in everything, pulling even the fellbeast into it's abyss...
The entire fellbeast is being dragged into it...
once one of it.s heads isclose enough, Zaydn takes his cursed sword and cuts off one of it's heads...
In a short time, the entire fellbeast is consumed by the blackhole...
Zaydn lowers his hand and the blackhole disappears...
Zaydn takes his sword & sticks the head that he cut of and hurls to to Zaysol's feet...)
Zaydn: "...an offering, for you..."
(a glint of pride hits Zaysol's eyes, but also worry...)

-Master Serris

14 Oct, 2013, 2:49 am

(Zaydn half turns to Ezmel... he gives them a dark smile...)
Zaydn: "heh.... It's quite simple once you think about it... hahaha... I opened up my soul...
My soul, if you remember, is quite hollow... a void... an abyss...
I learned that technique from an End who was just passing by... For some unkown reason he taught me the technique, he knew what my soul was like...
All I know know is that I have a new ability, and that fellbeasts should think twice before messing with me...
Unless they want to be swallowed up... heheh..."
(The severed head disappears into the wind... Zaysol looks up at his hollow son with a saddened face...)

-Master Serris

14 Oct, 2013, 2:58 am

Zaydn: ".....yet again, I must help others.... bleh... yeah... I can give it back..."
(he walks over and puts a hand over Eznier. He returns Eznier's life force.)

-Master Serris

14 Oct, 2013, 10:49 am

Zaydn: "Fun, isn't it? An experience I almost get every time I try to get up. Some day I may just drop dead because of my.... condition...."
Zaysol: "...... Zaydn..."
