- Intro -

After the Landia of Peace was discovered and the guardians Luna, Thorn, and Swan were in charge of watching over the Resting Place, it has been over a millennium almost. But, things have changed dramatically over the years since a massive wildfire burned away practically every being who inhabited the Landia of Peace. Those who were able to flee the voracious, lapping flames that enveloped the island found sanctuary on a new island that was much farther away from their prior place of origin and also much larger and wider than their initial home. They named this island, "Lōkahi", which is Hawaiian for harmony. There are, in fact, smaller islands that surround the main one, however they are populated by highly poisonous plants, thus making them uninhabitable toward magical fae, dragons, and the like.

After a while of building establishments and even a new sanctuary for the dragons, they all finally settled. Sadly, because of the former guardians perishing, new ones were chosen. Life as it was in their prior homelands slowly returned to normal, though deep down, everyone knew it'd never be the same.

As it was in the beginning, it is up to you to decide how your fate will play out.

Lance is open if you’d like one of your characters to interact with him, or vice versa))
Blur
The small dragon sat impatiently with some food they found as Kestrel said it would be, having a little too much fun playing with the left over bones. But even with this shelter and food they definitely would want to leave soon. It’d be quite embarrassing to tell other that Blur, a descendant of a great family lived in a barn. Speaking of great family, she wondered where they were now. All of them were dragons, very over dressed ones even but she hadn’t caught an eye of them. She also needed a job, just for some money and some better clothes. And a plan.. a plan on how to take her rightful place in the family. The question of why she desperately wanted the attention from a family that treated her so harshly still beckoned in her mind.

Lance
The impressive looking male skipped through the vast streets, having finally gotten away from his family’s bickering about how unimpressed they were with the buildings, shops, and even the creatures that resided there. He hated how rude they were. Constantly complaining and going on and on about some topic no one cares about, like shut up for a moment won’t ya? He shook his head, ridding himself of the memories of his family. Today was about exploring, and later hopefully finding his sister… he had never met the disgrace they called Wingless, from the few descriptions he got he guessed they were of without wings of course. He thought to himself as he walked aimlessly through the lands, peeking into a few shops and taverns, but nothing too interesting. After a few hours he simply lost hope and took a break, buying some food and taking camp on the outskirts of the busier parts of the sanctuary. He ate with a frown, his wings dropped to his sides.

Yuri
|Smiling softly, he carefully made his way around Aether and headed outside. Stopping for a second or two to breathe deeply of the fresh, intoxicating air, he picked his way among his small patch of wildflowers and wiggled through a hedge until he made it to the edge of his garden. Orderly, it was not, but expansive and carefully cultivated could be used to describe it. You had no real indication of where the "garden" started nor where it ended; as the entire place looked much like the forest surrounding it. There were no dirt paths, or cobblestone walls. Instead, each plant was meticulously place to where it singularly could best survive. The display of pure, startlingly large and depth full knowledge of agriculture the shone from here was...stunning. Not a single flower was drooping, not a single plant needed a single second more sunlight nor drop more water than what was provided. As he slowly padded through the brush and the like, he interacted with each plant both mentally and physically, with no matter on if it was the herb or plant he needed. He greeted them, talked to them, and aided them in any way needed. As he did so, the young dragon seemed to fall deep into a trancelike state. It was peaceful, really, how he looked. The flinty gray light slowly faded to a light pink as songbirds flitted and twirled through the trees above. A faint smile danced upon his lips, growing ever wider as he passed each seemingly meaningless shrub. The only time the scenery was broken, was when he stooped to pick an herb. Unbeknownst to the world, in the secret confines of his mind space, he pleaded with each plant for forgiveness as he picked them. From the expression on his face, you would think he was murdering his closest friend each time a root was dug up or a leaf was trimmed. Each time it happened; he sent a miniscule amount of energy to heal the plant he robbed from. Then, he sighed and reached back, gingerly placing the matter into a jar or urn, and furthermore placing it in the basket that Aether carried. But quickly, the smile would return and the process would repeat. Eventually, he finished his tour; which took a few hours at minimum, and he returned to the door of his humble abode. As soon as he left the garden, almost as if by a switch, the smile faded slightly and his mighty horns dimmed and shone gray. |"Many thanks for accompanying me, Miss Aether. It was Very fun, was it not? Watching me among the plants for a considerable amount of time, hmm?"|


Tumbleweed
|Finally dipping amongst the trees, he reflected on how him and Cottonmouth were surrounded on all sides by enemies. Snorting, as a leaf flew up his nose, he sneezed. Shaking his head to clear such thoughts, he just promised himself to protect his loudmouthed and weak bodied master. *He sure was named right, hissin and bitin like a snake, untill a bigger prey comes along and he slithers away back to me.* Laughing to himself, he returned to such master and laid down. He could tell that Cotton was thinking on something, so he sighed again and resigened himself to wait.|

Cottonmouth
|Sensing Tumbleweeds return, he relaxed slightly. Being without the dragon always made him feel naked, vulnerable even. Rubbing the nape of his partners neck, he could feel his muscles unclench and his jaw untighten. |"What are we gonna do here Tumbleweed ol'pall. This here aint the land for us. It's all law and order, there were no bounties neither. I aint got much more saved up, and we made enemies of powerfull witches. Or, I made enemies, and you saved me again."| Sighing, he felt Tumbleweed tremble underneath him. Laughter. Slapping the dragon, he inched away, then moments later, inched back and began rubbing the back of his head. |"I probably deserve that, now that I thinking on it. Really messed it up back there; aint had no real heat behind me words, I just spit em out, much like Spitter does. Heh, I really am like a gun. Simple, easy to point in a direction, and I like to spit thangs."| Musing to himself for a few minutes, he felt a questioning thought from his Tumble. |"Awww, don't worry big baby. I'll think of something, just give me time."| Sitting back, he spat out the butt of a cigarette, and thought about lighting another one. Deciding against it, because he really needed to stop that, especially since he had been smoking almost non-stop since the fight. Masaging the back of his stiff hand, he pondered what it would be like to be a masoose as he gazed into the turbulent water scant meteres from his boots.|

Aether
She sat there, watching Yuri drift from plant to plant. He really did love his plants, huh? Well, the scene at the burning tree told her that. That look on his face… looks kind of like when he watched his grandpa die. Her mind flashed with the memories, and she shook her head to clear it. When he was done, she followed behind Yuri. “Watching you was better than watching the walls, that’s for sure.” She paused, and then teased him “Not so bad watching a handsome dragon work.” She fully expected him to not respond or brush it off, but she must admit, she wondered if his mind had ever gone within 30 miles of this concept.

Yuri
|Yuri tilted his head quizzically, |" Was that sarcasm...? Would you really rather have stared at a wall, oh Miss Aether, I am deeply sorrowed if I had bored you that much! And working among the garden is never work, it's more pleasurable than that. Work is more.... difficult...aswell, I suppose. Gardening is easy, although it is time consuming. So it does hit the "work" requirement there. How strange, that many differing words can have many differing meanings."| Flicking his tail, the horns atop his head went even darker gray. |"I... never mind."| With a small little sigh, he grabbed the basket from Aether gently, and began unpacking and sorting the contents. He laid them out in a seemingly unknown pattern, placing things on shelves next to things they didn't have any obvious correlation to. But to Yuri, they did. Each plant had a different...voice, you could say energy or aura. he was organizing them by that qualification. In doing so, he could find any ingredient almost immediately. Simultaneously, he was taking a portion of each herb out and tying them onto a beautifully carved drying rack with birch-bark twine. Finally, when it was all finished, he stopped and actually met Aether's eye for once, as often when they were speaking he was looking at here, but strictly avoided any eye contact. |"Would you like me to lead you to town? My life isn't interesting, and without thinking, asked you to come with me. I'm sorry if I made you feel obliged to stay, you may go. I will not stop you, in fact, I will help you back to town."|

Aether
She now felt incredibly guilty. She did, in fact, enjoy the trip. It was the staring at Yuri part that wasn't true. Well, the handsome part, anyway- Well he was pretty, but she literally met him like, a day ago? Anyway, the guilt was now clawing at her. She shook her head and murmured in somewhat embarrassment "I would like to come with you, and I was only being sarcastic about the 'handsome' part."

Yuri
|He stopped for a moment, staring off into the void once again. Suddenly, he snapped out of it and looked at Aether again, not meeting here eye this time however. |"Ah...well, I didn't really have anything else planned for today...Miss Aether. I was really just going to go for a walk, maybe meditate some."| Shaking his head, he flipped his mane of hair over and combed through it again with his hands. Wincing as he tug on a knot that had formed, Yuri flipped his head over and did the other side. Then he turned and went back to rummaging in his shelves. Pulling out a few handfuls of aromatic leaves and putting them in a jar that he closed tightly. Putting this jar in a sack around his neck, he turned only his head at Aether. |"I really wouldn't mind leading you to town however, you must have had plans or the like? Maybe someone to go see, to go home to? A friend or the such?"|

Aether
“I won’t bother you if you don’t want me here.” She offered, wondering where to go. “I didn’t have plans for today either.” Maybe she could go visit that grumpy old bear? “I don’t…have anyone to go home to.” She said somewhat bitterly. “They all died a long time ago, and, well, I don’t trust humans or humanoids for the most part. Mostly I just sleep a lot in the light, absorbing it. But I can go visit another friend, yes.” She smiled a bit at the last part.

Yuri
|*Well, now I feel bad. I don't want her to particularly go, since being alone gets lonely, but I don't want her to be forced to stay, what will I do, what will, should I, hmmm,*|Twitching his tail, he dipped his head in apology. |"My deepest condolences Miss Aether, as I both have no intentions of driving you out and have deepest sorrows for your losses."| He could sense the general color of Aether's emotions, so he had an indication of the confusion tones of sorrow that followed his words, at least, that's what he picked up. Shifting slightly into a more comfortable position, Yuri spoke softly. |"I have a fantastic idea, would you like to see some of my woodworking? The forest will always stand, mind you I may have to depart rather soon for...some...spiritual time. I believe that would be the way to say it, yes? Besides by.... inaccuracy of this tounge, it would please me to share my craft, and therefore, a glimpse at my soul."| Yawning, he covered his mouth very politely before wiping his now steaming eyes. |

(of course Eliipsed'Moon can, its fine by me. You may want to ask Aether though, IDK if their OK with it. Cotton and Tumble are always open as well, but they be a bit...prickly LOL)

Aether
(Fine by me, Deception.)
Her head picked up at that. “I would be honored to look at your wood carvings.” She said solemnly. She didn’t know what to say to the second part. What could one say about another’s time?

Eclipsed moons saw two dragons as she flew one being a kayalan dragon also thought to have gone to be extinct like her kind the other a Tenryū another rare dragon she then flew down into one of the nearby trees hiding for a bit thinking they would be good friends hopefully... she avoided reading their minds so they don't invade their privacy. She then glided down onto the ground in front of them sitting down her moon chain jingling as she did.
