Loner of the Swamp(Open)

["Cosmos"]

turning towards the Copper Dragoness and the harpy-like creature, the harpy-like creature looked at Cypreus, even though her eyes were covered with the blindfold. "hello Cypreus, my name is Iona the Harprix Blindseer. i was able to contact the mistress's thoughts, and was able to find the last Copper Dragon in the realms, except for you," the Harprix spoke, looking at the copper dragoness, who smiled shyly at Cypreus.

Cypreus was a little surprised the harpy-like creature knew his name already, but after hearing her speak of seeing into Convexia's thoughts he figured that was how she figured it out, or just looked into his. Though he had to admit he was a little disheartened with hearing that he was indeed one of the only copper dragons left in the realms next to the dragoness she had been standing with. "It's a pleasure to meet you Iona,"He spoke to her while hiding his initial disheartened feelings at her words before he glanced towards the dragoness.

Though he had to admit he wasn't quite sure how to speak to her at first he cleared his throat before he spoke, "And what might your name be?"He inquired to her kindly, beginning to feel a little guilty at the fact he really might have jumped the gun now with seeing Convexia really wasn't all that bad at all. And seeing the dragons and other creatures there he guessed he might have been even more suspicious if he had not spoken with the vampiric Broodmother before hand.

covering her face shyly, the copper dragoness spoke with a shy voice, "my name is Ciena." placing a taloned hand on the dragoness's back, Iona turned towards the Storm Sisters. "it might be best that you show them to the guest room, since the storm is going to be a ravaging one," she said, turning and walking towards one of the outer towers that still stood. "she is right, even we don't like being in the coming storm," the Storm Sisters spoke together, walking over to the entrance and turning towards them.

"It's nice to meet you Ciena, I'm Cypreus."Cypreus greeted her, giving her a slight smile but turned his gaze back towards the storm clouds. They seemed to give a tall tale signs of being even worse than before back in the Swamp, they also seemed to be far darker and giving him an uneasy feeling of how bad this storm will end up. "Seems you three are right, I may be willing to brave a storm as much as the next dragon but even those clouds are warning enough this is going to be a horribly bad and long storm."He agreed, looking back to the Storm Sisters and following to where the guest room was.

["Cosmos"]

leading them deep into the fortress, the Storm Sisters soon lead them to a large passageway that had many doors leading off the passageway. at the end of the hall, a large set of doors sat in the wall, nearly taking the entire wall. as they neared the large doors, the sisters turned to a door. opening the door, they stood out of the way as a yelp of pain came through the large doors. "her leg must have been bad, if she is actually crying out in pain," they said together, then let out a sigh.

Cypreus followed them through the many corridors, looking at each room and door they passed to make a mental map so as not to chance losing his way. Of course, he could also always follow the many scents that were hitting his nose down the hall way as they headed to the guest room which didn't seem far from Convexia's chambers. Hearing the yelp actually this time made Cypreus cringe, which was hard to make the muscular copper dragon do so. "You...can blame me for that one. It was an accident when I was getting her off me shortly after her ancestors tried to force her to kill me, I was trying to hold back my strength but I misjudge the use of force I had behind the kick."He explained to them.

["Cosmos"]

"if the mistress has forgiven you, then there is no need to hold you for hurting her. plus, we have personally seen her fight her ancestors control," they said, as they lead Iona, Ciena and Cypreus into the room.

Nodding slightly Cypreus took one last glance back towards the large double doors before following after the females and coming into the room. It had been sometime since he had been in a real room, which involved real furniture and being enclosed by the walls of a fortress. Foreign as it felt now he also felt a sense of familiarity in being in a structure again, knowing it had been many years since he set foot even in a village. "Been a long while since I was ever in a real room like this."

["Cosmos"]

"well, we hope it is comfortable. most of the maidens have a lot of free time when they are not venturing around, so they make quite some exquisite items that are either used in the fortress, or sold or given to villages and cities," the sisters said, as a knock sounded at the door. as the door opened, two avian-like females came in and nodded at everyone. making a series of chirping sounds, the Storm Sisters nodded and smiled at them. after the door closed, the sisters smiled at Cypreus. "well, the good news is that she will make a full recovery," they said with a smile.

[Deleted]

Cypreus was a little surprised to hear this as he looked about the room, wondering if all the items inside it had been made by the maidens. Or at least a majority of them. But he could guess when one was up in the mountains and didn't always have something to do it made sense to try and find something to occupy your time. Though his attention soon turned to the knock, watching the avian females come in but didn't understand their chirps. Waiting as they spoke he then glanced at Storm Sisters as they told him the news after the two females left, "Well I'm glad to hear that."He said, looking relieved.

["Cosmos"]

nodding, they then spoke, "the bad news is she will not be able to travel for a while, to allow her leg to heal." leaning against the wall, they noticed that the copper dragoness was fidgeting nervously.

[Deleted]

"That's understandable, traveling would only make it worse after all." Cypreus said with a nod, feeling bad this but was at least glad she would make a complete recovery. He doubted he'd be completely forgiven if he had crippled Convexia and likely would be there in the Ebonic Mountains for very long. But he noticed the Storm Sisters looking towards the copper dragoness making Cypreus turn slightly, seeing she seemed rather nervous.

["Cosmos"]

looking at the Storm Sisters, the copper dragoness looked at them as if looking for permission. smiling sweetly at her, they spoke together, "go ahead dear. mistress has given all permissionto you towards Cypreus." brightening up, she looked at him and smiled.

[Deleted]

Cyprues looked between the three female, at first seeming to have been lost in what the permission was for. "Permission for what?"He asked, still trying to wrap his mind around this place already and being back in a building his mind was slow to catch on at the moment. Normally he was pretty quick to catch onto the gist of most things and understand someone's meaning. This time though he was slower than usual to pick up their meaning before it possibly hit him, "Wait do you mean..."He trailed off before glancing at Ciena.

["Cosmos"]

giggling, the Storm Sisters looked at Cypreus. "our mistress is extremely protective of those that are like her, near extinct. dear Ciena understands what would happen if she was to die, so she asks for permission before doing things, which has made her extremely shy," they spoke together, then smiled sweetly at him. "she was asking for permission to spend time with you. she hasn't seen any other Copper Dragons before either, and would like to get to know you," they finished.
