It whispers to its new apprentice, "Help. Now. It safe."

I nodded and kneeled before the ice dragon. "I wish to help you. Please let me do so..." I took out my last scrap of gauze and tentatively swabbed the wound on her shoulder. For such a bad wound, it wasn't bleeding that bad.

She winces, gritting broken teeth. Her body was unnaturally warm. She tried to speak, tried so hard.

It watches, knealing next to Kanishi. "Ice. Need ice." It couldn't feel the coldness as was normal from the draggy.

As I continued to work, the tension between us began to wither. After the wounds were clean, I took out my needle and thread. "this is going to Hurt, but the cream I put on your wounds will numb it alittle."

"how can we get ice..?"

She winces, sweating, still too warm. She needed something cold. Something very cold.

[taking a bath, so brb]

It places a hand on Kanishi. "Dwarfs Beard. Chew, put in, close wound. Some in cave. Some other places." It looked at the draggy, worried.

"This one might help...." But could it really reviel its nature?

"ah...!" I nodded , getting up. "I'll be right back." before I left, I looked at Vallahd. "you should be with Kyra..! She could be hurting right now...please stay with her..." then I headed deeper Into the cave, searching for the herb.

It fallows Kanishi, quietly. It goes close to her and whispered, "White moss. Near water. This one will help draggy with cold." It turns and heads back to the draggy.

"okay..." I continued on, in search of water. Vallahd sure knows alot about healing...

[back]

She winces, water starting to pool around her. So warm. Too warm. She wasn't made for the warm weather, despite her aquatic appearance. She felt faint, eyes still closed.

It goes up to the draggy and kneals, placing a hand on it. "Be still. Cold comes." It hated to do this, but it wasn't going to let one die while this one could help. It began to sink into the shadows, pulling the draggy with, letting the coldness come.

She started to feel the cold come to her, her body starting to gradually go too. She couldn't open her injured eyes, but she could feel the cold. What was happening? She twitched her tail, as the cold came to her.

It focused hard to keep both of them still, then brought the draggy back up from the cold. It let go, panting silently.

I followed a path into a small tunnel, which gradually ended in a small cove. The water matched that of the spring, a tiny sliver of light shining into it, setting stars of light all over the cave walls. Wow... Such a pretty spot.. So peaceful. I knelt by the pool, looking for white moss. l

She felt a bit colder than before, opening her eyes though she saw nothing. she moved her head again, growling weakly. Why would they be helping her, even after she had attacked them? It made no sense, as she just layed there, tail flicking, the water around her frozen solid.

It sits on the ice gratefully. "Honor." It lays back, smiling. The old codes were being fallowed. Nothing was forgotten.

She remained laying there, twitching occasionally, before trying to get up again.

Afew moments later I came running back with an arm full of the white moss, my eyes locked on the purple creature. "I'm back."

It looks at her. "Chew to paste. Put on wound. Hold. Repeat." It hated this language. It couldn't speak well at all! Barely simple sentances...
