The smoke begins to clear and in front of me stands a large dragon red and gold; Zhephyr. "*yawns with great sleep* ow ow ow this has been a long sleep...*notices me* ah and what have we here?" "*takes a deep breathe* I'm Isilheledh, and I'm looking for my friend Gonfindle, he has left town and went back to Stormwind castle" I explain. Zhephyr gazes at me and then scratches his head. "*looks at me* well dear don't expect him back soon...for I know that he's a Cetra elf and I do believe that he can become adult now..." Zhephyr says. "adult? But I assumed he was one..." I notice. "*shakes his head* no dear, Cetra elves only can become adult when they perform a ritual, and that can be a painfull one or an easy one it depends on which stone he chooses. The painfull one is dreadfull: it's a chain of painfull tests to prove that he can stand pain...the easy one is simply controlling a monster with nothing more than the power of the mind, but if he fails...the monster..." "*wide eyes* will kill him!" I exclaim "*sighes* no, but the poison it spurts will prevent Gonfindle from getting adult and...he'll be doomed to live the life as an infant, without the true Cetra powers. Long ago his father succeeded in the test but...*scratches his head* it was with some help...altough I hardly remember what it was." Zhephyr says. I gaze at him and then slam my fist hard against a rock. "*looks surprised* hey be carefull or you break your wrist" "I have to help him, ritual or not...He's my lover and probably a father too, if I were certain that I'm truly pregnant *sighes*" "Ah that changes everything of course...but tell me is it true you want to be friends with me?" Zhephyr asks. I gaze at him and then nod "yes, if you want to help me...and what are Cetra powers?" "*picks me up and puts me onto his back* Of course, I've been asleep for a long time, I'd like to fly around again, and about those powers, none can say for even I don't know, the elves have made sure that none would ever know what they were capable of." he grins before spitting a large flame out of his nose melting the roof of the cave. Outside the snowstorm has calmed down and white snowflakes fall down as the majestic red/gold dragon leaves his shelter. "*laughs* ah that does a dragon more than good, and off we go to Stormwind castle!" Zhephyr announces. I gaze down and seek any trace of Gonfindle. "*yells* Zhephyr would you seek for Gonfindle? he wears nothing more than a green combination!" "*looks at me* Uh? in this kind of weather? He's nuts! Alright I'll look for him, after all we dragons can detect heatsources *pauses as his sharp eyes notice something on the ground below* hang on..." Zhephyr begins to fly lower and a scream escapes out of my mouth as I recognize the half frozen body of my beloved one. Face down in the snow, motionless. "*screams* Gonfindle!!! *hops off Zhephyr* Gonfindle!" I yell as I run towards him, tears begin to fill my eyes as I fall next to him into the snow. "*picks him up* Gonfindle...my love speak to me...don't be dead, not now...he's icecold we need to get him to a warm enviroment..." I speak with a raspy voice. Zhephyr kneels and says "he's not dead, but he'll die if we don't hurry up." I nod and wrap my frozen beloved one into a warm blanket before wrapping him in the fur coat I got from Michaël. I try to pick him up but fail. "*grins a bit* allow me...to help." Zhephyr giggles before picking us up "*places us upon his back* off we go to Stormwind castle.*flies off into the air*" "It is a ruïn in fact...yet we might be able to find a place to warm him up!!!" I yell as we fly on. I keep Gonfindle close to my own warm body and kiss him repeatedly hoping that the flame of our love would warm him up. Zhephyr begins to shiver and suddenly I feel his body heat creeping over my own as well as Gonfindles body. "*yells* thanks!" "*nods* you're welcome, I felt you were cold too..." zhephyr yells back while flying on.
