Raisel couldn’t figure out what exactly Dragomir had told the lady but they were inside her little cottage and she had served them bread.

Raisel slowly pulled off Dragomir’s shirt, she soaked a clean washcloth in water and wiped his wounds. She flinched any time she touched the bruises, however, he didn’t react.

“I’m sorry for hurting you”, the lady apologized over and over again.

“It is fine, I understand you were only protecting your son. You have been victimized for years now”, Dragomir replied to her for the umpteenth time.

Raisel reached for his injury and applied an ointment to it. The ointment tended to burn a little, so she cringed when she rubbed it on…

He took her hand in his, which caused her to look up at him, “I am fine Raisel it doesn’t hurt that much”

She nodded in response.

The lady set a bowl of water before them, “I am sorry I can not offer you anything tangible as to the former or recent location of the heart of magic”, she paused first and searched their face

    He mounted Fury and extended a hand to pull her up, when she was comfortable behind him, she asked the question that was bothering her, “What did you guys talk about, You and…” “Ariel, Ariel is her name” “Yes”, Raisel answered, “It was pretty intense and I caught the glances that passed between you two occasionally." They rode gently through the deserted streets., “You want the undiluted truth?”, he asked. “Affirmative!”, she answered, “We are partners remember?” “Well Ariel asked if we were a couple, can you believe that?”, he asked, a look of astonishment on his face, “I was appalled by the mere thought of it but she was serious. She said she saw how you kept on giving me subtle love glances…” Her forehead creased, “What?” “The time with the injuries, you were in pain because I was in pain…” “Dragomir”, Raisel called, “Keep quiet, don’t say a thing. You have no idea what you’re saying” “Chill miss, you don’t have to be all so defensive, like the mere thought of being with me

    It was dusk when they got to Nevera. They surveyed the city from a safe distance. He turned to look at her, “This sure is a busy town, I don’t think dragons will come here to hide if they needed to stay out of the public eye” “Well if there are rumors there could be a hint of truth in it”, she answered, she observed the town. He nodded absentmindedly, he stared at her as her eyes lit up at the sight before her. There were a lot of people engaged with one thing or the other. Kids chased one another on the streets, they were giggling young girls talking to each other and subtly admiring the young boys down the road. “So where do we go from here?”, he reluctantly drew his eyes from her. She turned to him, “You are the one with the broad knowledge of kingdoms and towns…”, a hint of a smile on her lips. They stood quietly beside each other, the breeze billowed around them, sending papers flying around. One landed on the feet of Raisel, she picked it up and read through, “I think we mig

    Allerick and his aide Mart stopped to rest for a while under the shade of a large tree. Unknown to him the ensemble his father sent after him where hiding behind the cover of the dense forest. “Mart quickly tend to Buck, we have to continue our journey soonest, we should approach the city before dusk”, he barked out orders. Mart stood up almost immediately, “Yes sire”, and began tending to the horse. Allerick placed his head against the large bark of the tree, now that he was out of Avalon with no host of soldiers and servants to tend to all his needs, save for a little peasant boy, he had no idea why he had put up with him for as long as he had, it didn’t make any more sense. The more he thought about it the more he thought his decision foolish, Raisel could be anywhere, any town, any kingdom. He would never be able to find her, especially if she didn’t want to be found. This was why he wanted to travel solo, so as not to attract unnecessary attention to him, so she wouldn’t know

    “We are at Molvania my Lord”, Matt announced Allerick pulled the reins of the horse backwards causing it to halt, “I see…”, he surveyed the surrounding areas, “Does that little map make any indications of where a library might be?" “Yes Sire, you can not imagine all the minute details on this map, there are taverns, hills, mountains and even small inns”, Matt answered excitement clear in his voice. “Wow that’s very exceptional", Allerick smiled slyly, "It seems old Ryker even in his death is still a very generous man” Mart nodded without saying a word. He handed the map to Allerick, he surveyed it quietly for a while before handing it back. “This way”, he beckoned to Matt and began to head in the general direction of the city. They rode for a while before they got to the majestic tower that was the library. It was so visible, you couldn’t have missed it even if you wanted to. Allerick alighted his horse and smoothed his slacks. He hated this peasant clothing. He missed the cares

    “Do we have to wear this”, Raisel asked clearly in distress, “Everything is clinging to my skin so tight, I might pass out any time soon” Dragomir turned to look at her, “I beg you please don’t, that will be defeating the whole not attract unnecessary attention to ourselves purpose” “Do I?” “Yes you do, this circus is for the high-class ladies and gents. I think they’ll appreciate it if you don’t show up in high boots and your sword by your side”, he answered, "That would be terrifying" “I’m going to trip over, this dress is just…” “I think you look perfect”, he blurted out before he could stop himself and he was right. She had on the ocean blue dress that just perfectly complimented her ocean blue eyes. Her long dark hair was not tied up in a ponytail, as usual, it was braided in two. He could have sworn he saw a red tint on her cheek but she looked away quickly. They got to the white and red striped tent and handed over their tickets to the man on the outside. He bent his han

  • A DRAGON TALE    Esmeray...

    Allerick had the description of the lady who had taken the book alongside the man. He was convinced beyond reasonable doubt that it was Raisel. He didn’t know whose company she was in and it hurt him to even think about it. He had imagined her in the past sitting beside him on the throne of Avalon, he had merely toyed with the idea in his head. Now that he thought deeply about it, he didn’t want that any more. She wasn’t worthy of it, not in the slightest. She was a criminal and he wanted nothing to do with her whatsoever. After this realization, you’d have thought he would have just gone back to Avalon and get on with his life but no, he wasn’t going to do that. He still wanted to find her, he still wanted her. He wanted her in many forbidden ways to want a woman and of course, the facts that he had set out to find some magical stone. He would be considered a coward if he returned sooner than was expected. He needed to prove himself to Avalon that he was a worthy king and not a cow

    They were going over the plan again for the second time. “You are certain the king has a real-life elder dragon?”, Dragomir asked still in disbelief. “Yes, he does, locked in a cage and chained. A private pet…”, Esmeray answered, “He has an obsession for dragons and loves to have them by his side as a show of his strength”. “Pathetic”, Dragomir spat. Raisel appeared to be thinking, "That would explain this kingdom's unnecessary obsession over these creatures" Esmeray nodded in agreement. “And this dragon has not escaped why?”, Raisel questioned. “The King uses strong magic to suppress the power and strength of this dragon and to keep it in dragon form for a long time, your energy wears off with time”, Esmeray explained with a nonchalant shrug, "Or so they say...He is unable to escape or fight back the attacks, he is just sitting duck...”, she stared at Dragomir briefly gauging his reaction, "To be used for the king's indulgence." Dragomir frowned, “That makes sense. The dragon

    Hours passed but they still did not speak to each other. A guard appeared, a different guard from the one they had met earlier. He unlocked the gates, then two other guards rushed inside to pull them out. They were dragged along long corridors until they got to a large door. One of the guards whispered something to the courtesan, he opened the doors and walked in, then he returned almost immediately and ushered them in. They were dragged along the lengths of the large throne room till they came face to face with one of the scariest faces they were inopportune to meet in their lifetime. They were both tossed to the ground before they could say a word, “Bow before the king”, a voice said to them. Raisel looked up to see who had spoken, one of the men pulled her by her hair for her defiance. “Do not hurt her!”, Dragomir shouted. Raisel kept a straight face not willing to give out the fact that she was in a lot of pain. They were both pulled up until they were face to face with the

    They drank a lot of rum and chatted about everything and nothing. It was far into midnight and the bar was beginning to empty out. Coal didn’t have much customers to attend to, so he was able to engage them. Coal took one long sip, “It was always about the ladies when he came here” “No definitely not”, Dragomir argued. “Of course Dragomir” Raisel took a short sip and scrunched her nose in disgust at the awful taste, “Who was it, tell me?”, she bobbed up and down in her seat like an excited school girl. “First it was Esmeray…” “Oh”, she interrupted, her face fell. “Then Raisel…” “Oh shut up Coal!" Raisel was smiling now, “Really?” Dragomir looked at her, “Why do you care so much?” She stared back at him, she couldn’t conjure up any bef

    Raisel tossed on her bed, and then she heard it again. She got up with a start, it was still slightly dark but a horse was neighing outside. She brushed it off and went back to sleep but she heard it again but this time it was much closer to her window. It was the early hours of the morning but if a horse was outside her window she had to check it out. She grudgingly got out of bed, it was a chilly night so she slipped on a robe and walked towards her window, she peeped outside but there was no one around or even a horse around. She thought of going outside to check but she did not want to use the door for fear of waking her mother up. Since she got back her mother had insisted on spending the night in her room cuddled up with her for fear of her running off again like the last time. It had taken her a lot to convince her mother that she and found the stone and had no plans of running away without her knowledge. Her words were not enough still until she had threatened that she might

  • A DRAGON TALE    Avalon-Epilogue

    As Raisel rode through the all too familiar streets, it hit her again, how could she forget? This was home, the home where she lived with her parents. Where she had made her first mistakes as a child, gotten her first scolding and grown into the strong woman that she was today. It was not the beautiful scenery that got to her, no this time it wasn’t perfection that Islandia was, the clouds were not excessively blue and did not look like soft foams that you wanted to reach out to and take a piece from, there were not much beautiful flowers and trees as the streets in Avalon assumed a more business-like front. Carriages and horses packed here and there, men were smartly dressed and attended to their different businesses. There were no dragons in all the wonderful colours you can imagine, in the most beautiful patterns, Avalon was dull and bereft of loud colours of any kind. Heavens forbid that you wear bright yellow or neon green, the fountain in the middle of the street did not have w

  • A DRAGON TALE    Votigern's Downfall.

    Votigern had been travelling for days unending, his only lead to the heart of magic had blown up in his face. So he and his men had taken a well-needed rest. He had a huge party that left him dead drunk throughout the day. He slowly opened his eyes, he had a banging headache. He slowly walked towards the door and opened it, a guard was stationed outside, “Send my food in…with a woman of course” He nodded, “Yes sire” He slumped on the bed, and not long after there was a short knock on the door, “Come on in” “Good morning Lord Votigern”, a lady's voice greeted him. He merely grumbled his greetings. She set the tray of food on the table and walked up to him, “What do you want my Lord?” He thought about it for a while, then he turned to look at her, his eyes unashamedly travelling through the full length of her body. By his standards, she was a beautiful woman. Long brown hair, a petite face and a curvy body accentuated by the tight-fitting dress she wore and extremely tight corsets

    They rode for hours unending, stopping at intervals for a short break. It was almost sunset when they arrived at the heart of the earth, the original location of Islandia where the portal once opened. They stopped their horses and got down from them. Raisel reached for the box, it was slightly heavy, she handed it to Dragomir, “I believe this belongs to you” He hesitated, “Raisel…” She shook her head, “No Dragomir, this is not debatable. This rightfully belongs to dragons, this belongs to you…”, she smiled, “And what will I do with this after all?”, she asked, “It will only put a target on my back, I do not know where or how to keep it safe…” He nodded, “Thank you Raisel, thank you so very much. I could not have done this without you” Her eyes glistened with tears, “We make quite a good team”, she smiled through the tears. And more, he said to himself. She reached for his face and cupped it, “It is time Dragomir, you did it, it is time. Time for you to do what you have promised

    Allerick rode into Avalon, the royal guards beside him. As soon as he entered the royal courtyard word spread around that he was back. He walked head-on to the throne room, he ignored the greetings on the way like he had not seen them. He was in an awful mood and the reason was clear. He got to the large doors, and the courtier stationed outside quickly acknowledged him, “Your Highness” Allerick did not bother with a reply, he stood still, his hands to his back. After a while, he turned to the man, “Can I see my father Stefan? Or do I have to force the doors open myself?” Stefan bowed immediately, “My apologies your Highness”, he opened the doors, “Prince Allerick, son of King Aldrich, heir to the throne of Avalon is entering the thro… Allerick walked in before he finished. Trent and the other men trailed behind him. His father and grandmother sat around a large table, there were two people with them, and he recognized them as ministers. Aldrich saw him first, his eyes lit up when

  • A DRAGON TALE    Deleria

    They slowly rode into the deserted streets of Deleria. They stayed quiet for a moment observing the area. Save for the constant chirping of birds and crowing of roosters it was eerily quiet. There was no sign of human existence. “You know I was thinking”, Raisel said. “Tell me…” “The phrases, the clues we gathered…”, she trailed off, her mind preoccupied, “The clues were talking about Deleria, this is the kingdom that has lost its glory…” “….but will rise again”, Dragomir finished. They rode through the streets but there was still no sign of life. Save for the items outside the beatdown houses that humans used. “Do you think our choice of clothing has chased them inside?” He thought about it only for a while, “Yes they live in fear. Two people in leather and swords are bound to terrify them…” She nodded, “I never really thought about how or where we are to find the stone..” “If it is in Deleria we will find it. It will be hard to conceal it...”, he stated, “I have been thinkin

    Raisel ran towards Dragomir’s tent, in her hands were a lot of papers. They were guards stationed outside, when they saw her they greeted her and gave way for her. When she entered the chambers, as soon as she saw him, a small smile crept on her lips. It was the cutest sight ever. He was still dressed in his royal regalia that he wore earlier, his crown had tipped slightly but it was still on his head. He laid halfway on the bed, his one leg was on the bed while the other was on the floor. He was snoring slightly, and a half-eaten apple was in his hand. She walked closer to him, her eyes lit up in admiration for this man, now she knew why he had not come to see her earlier. He was exhausted. She took the apple from his hand and set it aside. She laid the books and papers she came with on the bed. She removed his crown carefully and laid it aside. She gently roused him, “Dragomir, I need you to wake up. I have something to tell you” He mumbled some incoherent words but he did not w
