After having been reminded of just how weak he was in comparison to his mate, he almost felt guilty for having claimed her and another woman… No, I shouldn't let that bother me. Sil loved Undine before becoming my promised mate. I shouldn't feel guilty, rather the opposite, I should feel lucky for their love. "You're a really kind woman, Sil. Truly, I love you."
"Huh? Where's this coming from? Speaking like that and I won't be holding back any longer. We're gonna make more earthquakes." She giggled, with an impressively sensational tease. I'd really like to try this place out. But I hate transforming… Oh well. "Say, where's that one sister of yours? The one that we saved from death's door?"
"Do you mean, Anastasi?"
"So that's her name! I realized I hadn't asked for it before…"
"Well, it's not like she holds it against you or anything. It was directly after the first encounter with those detestable bastards after all."
She let out a short relieved sigh. "She may have been a problem child at that moment. But now that she's under our care, I really should act like her big sister now. Anyway, how is she doing?"
"She's doing uhm… Perhaps it's better if you just saw her yourself. It's hard to put into words… But since you understand nature's language on an instinctual basis I'm sure you'll see why I lack the words to describe it."
"Let's go then, Brighty. After that, I think I'm going to try this obstacle course out myself. The children seem to love it so much."
Brightness knew exactly what those words meant. She's going to transform again. Maybe we can fool around like that for once. "Say, Sil, would it be possible to…"
"Don't worry, we can try that at least once. But don't expect me to bear children in that form. It wouldn't end well at all."
Down below on a particularly large pad the pair of lovers landed, filling Night Silver with the sight of her little sister-in-law, Anastasi. She nodded realizing instantly that something was extremely different with her.
"Oh! Dear sister! How I've toiled waiting, wishing to see your beautiful face once more!"
"Yeah… I can imagine why at a glance. You've done some growing of your own, with all that soul searching you did. I'd classify you as damn near Brighty's strength 100 years ago before we killed that other dragon lord."
"Thank you sister! I've even learned some new magic! I can cast some interesting healing spells now."
Night Silver smiled. "That's wonderful. And now that you're at the minimum strength to be a True Dragon Lord, you need a title like Brighty's."
"Can… You give me one dear sister? I want one that binds me to my loving family. Not the asshats serving mother. All they do is lust over my body…"
She giggled, struggling to hold in her laughter. "I see your head is finally on straight. That old hag is hardly worthy of the title mother, let alone great mother. Let's see here… Healing and Dragon Lord… Could just go with the Healing Dragon Lord, but that feels too simple for you. Let's see if I can come up with something along those lines but sounds cooler…" She began thinking hard about this. It wasn't easy to come up with names. She did spend quite a lot of time thinking up her own name. And then players just abandoned that name entirely to the point she stuck with it. And then… It hit her like a bolt of lightning. "The Revitalization Dragon Lord."
Anastasi stared for a minute, like she was thinking about how it felt. And then her tail started sliding side to side. "I love it! From this day forward I shall be known as Anastasi the Revitalization Dragon Lord."
"Good, your powers will be needed in the very near future. Our brothers will be the ones fighting the Greed Kings. However, this land, Tus Nadair, will be a safe haven for them to return to and recover their strength."
"That's perfect! I'll get plenty of practice then!"
"Alright, now that all of that is resolved. Time to try that obstacle course out."
Night Silver smiled and then silently cast her magic to transform. She grew in size while her body morphed into that of a dragon. She let out a mighty roar that shook the ground and dispersed the clouds.
"She's beautiful! Brother you really have a wonderful mate! My insides they're… Oh! Oh!" She had some fluid appear beneath her. "Oh sister, you've made me like this. I'm all hot and bothered…" She may have relayed her expression in an obvious way, but the target of her affections had already took flight and was rather far away. "Awe, I just want the two of us to love each other…"
Brightness chuckled. She's obvious with her motives. But at least she's honest. "Anastasi, you want to fool around with Sil, don't you?"
"I want to feel her touch, and feel her."
"I can teach you what you need to know to get that chance. Are you willing to put in the work?"
"Teach me brother! I'll do whatever it takes!!!!"
And so Brightness began to teach his sister how to assume human form. Meanwhile, Night Silver joined her children in flying through the obstacle course. Of course the other dragons that arrived earlier, were currently getting their asses handed to them by the likes of Issanth, Moigit, and Frayrsis.
The beatings were disguised as training, just extremely brutal. Though in reality the three of them were getting their frustrations out, while also training to fight multiple opponents in a more systematic way. A little bit of wisdom gained from their sister-in-law.
A great distance away, a lone man floated, hiding in the clouds. This is really hard. Gathering data on the enemies we face from this distance is practically impossible. Tus Nadair's culture all but demands others to wear their traditional attire while in the nation, which means I can't dress up as a refugee either. Why? Because women are far more common as refugees. A man would raise suspicion. And even if it didn't! The men's outfit ranges from almost naked to barely covering anything. Damn you, Druid of Night Silver, and your impeccable ability to prepare for any situation ahead of time. I'm going to make you suffer for killing me… I wonder how you'll feel with elves turning against you, hehehe?
