8 - [Action]

[winds_voice]

[If your character is lucky, they might spot a new creature in the skies for a few days. It seems that while Eleytheria has been staying in the mountains, he has discovered that he can in fact change his shape. However, his shape-shifting ability is not as free as he would have liked. Even so, he is glad to be able to use a more familiar body.

You'll find a gold and white dragon, serpent-like and graceful, circling over the village and the forest and leaving a breeze in his wake. While ordinarily this dragon would possess four small feathered wings, in Luceti he now has an extra pair - the pair that render him vulnerable. While he might be large and perhaps intimidating to some, Eley possesses no altered powers in this form and is purely enjoying an aesthetic difference. It brings him closer to his spiritual origins and reminds him of home... He had spent so long as a human now, perhaps this was what he needed. A chance to find a little freedom even if in this enclosure it didn't seem like much.

The dragon will be resting in various spots around the forest and mountains and just outside the village too, giving the people of Luceti a chance to approach if they wish.]

(OOC: Eley dragon will be here for a few days~ He won't be doing anything in particular since, save from flying, his powers are the same as usual, but if you want your character to go poke him then go for it! Also I have a WIP reference here. Sorry, no icons, you'll have to use your imagination. ): )

[Disappointment aside, they have that they are both not human at all in common. As fond as them as he could be, it was always an interesting time to chat with someone else once in awhile.]

Of course. I understand. I am not too fond of killing, myself, though when I must, my fights are a much more mortal level. I hardly have to worry about it looking as if someone's god is being brought against them.

[As for his world? Draco looks away at the question, a moment of regret at mentioning it coming but passing on almost as soon as it does. He looks back again and rustles his wings, a dragon's shrug.]

Perhaps, perhaps not. I like to think I left my small part of it in better hands, but what happens from there is up to mankind now.

[winds_voice]

Much like the dragons of my world. I may be known as a 'dragon god' but the other creatures in this world are far more... mortal as you put it. Though the larger ones especially are well-respected by some. Hated by others.

[Draco's answer to his question certainly gets Eley's attention. He tilted his head a little, watching the other dragon with interest.]

You interfered then? To solve a potential problem?

[merelychewed]

Ha. Interfered. A good way to put it.

[ He gives his head a slow, somewhat sad shake and looks up at the sky this time rather than at Eley. ]

A mother begged me to save the life of her son. We both knew he was a wicked thing through and through, but how could I turn her away? There is so much sorrow in outliving your own children... and yet it became my greatest mistake.

[Hmm, that seemed like quite the harsh situation. The Spirit had to wonder what he would have done in that instance. As a deity he had been asked for many a thing but he had always assumed the recipient of his blessing to be good at heart. If he knew otherwise...]

In the past it would be easy for me to say that if such a thing happened at my door, I would not have allowed the child to live no matter how much the mother begged me. Now... emotions can be cruel and controlling. I cannot really blame you for your act of kindness, no matter the mistake.

Have you learned from it?

[merelychewed]

I had hoped, perhaps, he could be changed...

[ But he had only been fooling himself in the end. Even vows made on one's deathbed had meant nothing. ]

That they can be. Emotions can be ever twisted against you, yet I still would not spurn them, for all the trouble they cause. Hmm. [ And to the question, he inclines his head downwards, not quite a nod, but close enough. ] I learned to hide from the world after that, which did me no good. In the end, I returned to fix my mistake, at a great cost, but it was what it had to be. To make up for what I had done.
