Larkekio nodded, noticing that his movement sent Alkia scrambling to hold on to his shiny scales, now glinting in the rain. He swooped around the tallest mountain peak in the area, the wind now carrying the freezing rain accross their faces, like tiny needles. One pierced his eye and he groaned, but continued on. The ice and snow-capped mountains looked ominous. They had made it; to the dragon lands. Lark landed on a tall peak, letting his passengers get off, careful not to dump them plummeting into a deep canyon, ice sticking up like spears, ready to impale anyone who fell. He shook, sending ice flying. He was wary, knowing that dragons were hiding somewhere, watching. Not daring to let himself be unguarded by changing into a human, Lark remained in dragon form. Okay, you guys, follow me. But BE CAREFUL. He warned, leading the way to a dark cave.
Wynne staggered along the snowy mountains. He was growing increasingly weary and unsettled. He was beginning to get cold, but, because of his origins, was not too terribly cold. His stomach was growling constantly, and his throat was parched. He would stop every now and then, letting Epei get out, and pick up some snow to eat. Soon, though, there was nothing but ice. And ice was slippery. "Aaaaack. Aaaaack." Wynne stopped. The sound was coming from around the corner. He carefully picked his way among the slick ice and gasped at what he saw. Eagles! But not just eagles; these beast were huge. One of them cocked its head at Wynne. It emitted a sharp cawing sound again. "You made it!" He heard it say in his mind. "Made it where?" He asked, puzzled that they could talk and know who he was. "No time. We must hurry. They have the orb." It beckoned for Wynne to hop on his back. He did so, but cautiously. As soon as he was on and holding on to a tuft of feathers on it neck, they were off. "AHHH!" He screamed, the eagle swooping down suddenly. Soon they leveled out, high above the clouds and snow. "My name is Etreilioa (EE-TRAY-LEE-OH-UH)." H- She said.
