Welcome to Gaia! ::

The wind blew fiercely, a good sign that today was a good day to fly; Jarmore could be found on a perch high up the mountain nearest to the peak of one the mountains on the chain and was simply watching the world go by. Everything seemed quiet little to worry being as high as he was, the young races rarely ever found themselves up so high which suited him just fine when he wasn’t out and about enjoying a good meal he simply watched the world go by, or soared the skies above, today though, he wasn’t really interested in doing much other than watch perhaps he would do something later on when a particular tavern he frequented started serving the evening meal at the Elven realms, or maybe he would simply go bother those at the Vampire island is presence there seldom ever went unnoticed but one thing was for sure they did know how to make a good meal.

Jarmore yawned slightly as he looked up into the sky noticing that it was getting cloudy perhaps snow was coming later on, hard to say at the current time would have to wait and see what develops later. Jarmore’s eyes started scanning around and while he was fairly high he noted that few dragons were roaming about, guess they had other things to do than enjoy a fine day like this or perhaps he was simply too far up the mountain to be bothered by those who might have been roaming further below, it mattered little to him peace and quiet was just as good, though the one thing that was going for him was that his scales shown a metallic grey which nearly blended into the mountain face that helped when he didn’t want to be bothered few ever could see him and fewer still ever bothered to try, not that he minds any, he was simply enjoying a day as he usually did any other day though with the slight exception he wasn’t bothering the other races and taking in their fine dining.

As Jarmore continued to lay there a snowflake flew past his head which caused him to look up again, guess the snow is coming sooner than later he thought as he admired the slow but steady fall of white flakes that would provided he didn’t move would eventually cover him up in snow, not that he mind any he rather enjoyed the high altitudes of this mountain simply because it snowed on a regular basis, and while he would love to have his home here it would simply be a bother to try and carve out an area big enough to support his collected wealth he’d acquired over his many years, and further still that he would have to redecorate it so that it would be fitting, or for that matter have the facilities he generally had in case he needed to help one of the young races, sighing slightly he laid his head down and simply watched the snow fly past his view before he fell asleep content he wouldn’t be bothered while he lounged around and allowed the snow to build up around him.

As she flew away Jarmore whistled slightly while he stood there in his alternate form, his current flavor appearing as an Elf and watched her with interest, his form was unusual compared to most dragons but then again he was not ordinary in the slightest, and while he usually took on a human form the human culture started to bore him to death with their meals especially after having had a fair few royal banquets with the elves, he found that they made some of the greatest dishes he has ever had the pleasure of having, and his demeanor was such that he could pass as a noble that wasn’t seen all that often and to his credit it worked more times than not, especially considering how wise he was, it would be an understatement to say that given enough time which he had plenty of he could easily pass for an elder member, but what would that accomplish, he already had an open invitation which was something he guessed was hard to come by for even some of their own nobility who had much to prove before they would be given access; at least that was the impression he had when he visited the Elven realm to have a meal with the nobles.

Jarmore’s mind wondered slightly but quickly returned when he noted that the black dragon who as rumor had it was no longer paired with anyone appeared to have wounds that even for dragons would take a lot of time to heal, it was a wonder how anyone would do such a thing or for that matter how anyone on these mountains expected to earn the respect of one such as her if their only interest was simply to mate with her, clearly that wasn’t what was needed, though it was obvious lending a helping hand was needed though to what degree he knew not, he hadn’t been at this mountain range for very long and while there were plenty of dragons about most of them simply cared about gossiping which was something he cared little about so he simply stayed away from most and only tolerated them when they happen to show up wherever he was perched at the moment to talk to him about hogwash that did not interested him in the slightest.

Though if there was anything that was a common thing he heard on an outrageously regular basis, it was that everyone stayed well away from her, though he seemed to recall someone saying her name was Ebony, fitting name for one such as her.

Sighing slightly, he stepped over to the edge of his perch and looked out on the world around him, where he laid moments before was now a void with snow along the perimeter of where he was at. Looking up where she left with her meal he simple leaned backwards to fall over the edge. Jarmore continued to fall simply allowing the rush of wind to flow past him, the forest before swiftly closing, eventually he returned to normal and expanded his wings and simply glided along just above the treetops ignoring the looks he got as he passed by a few dragons who were trying to enjoy a meal in peace and soon shot up into the sky simply allowing momentum to carry him high before he took control and started flying high above. Eventually he flew close to where he was perched and flew around the mountain tops in search of this Ebony, a mate may not be needed, but perhaps a friend was, so he started looking around and saw that the one he sought was surprisingly closer to his perch than he realized, clearly, he wasn’t as thorough in finding a secluded perch as he thought, though admittedly his home was much further away from this particular peek.



Before Jarmore could approach the cry of a couple of dragons could be heard behind him “STOP!” Jarmore glanced over his shoulder to see the dragons approaching and spun around just in time for the two dragons to slam into him causing him to fall the two dragons keeping close as they shooed him away. As Jarmore fell he brought his wings close which allowed him to increase his speed which to the two dragons surprise allowed him to break away from them heading back down towards the forest below, the increased speed gave him the boost he needed as he quickly expanded his wings and flew over the trees with great speed he gave himself a moment to put some distance from his quarry who were struggling to keep up with him though they couldn’t anticipate his next move as he suddenly shot up with great speed into the sky doing a loop around which brought his path back towards the two who’d rammed into him, his mouth opened spewing forth a mist which covered his wings in ice and caused a ice trail to follow behind him, as his pace increased his shot passed them all the while chanting a small spell “Rin Fa do stai” as he flew back up and around the ice trail that had been behind him suddenly erupted in ice particles that disorientated the dragons, giving Jarmore the opening he needed he shot forward towards one of the dragons and when he neared he spun his tail over slamming it into the dragon causing it to cry out as it fell to the forest below. Not stopping there he rushed forward with talons and grabbed the other dragon by neck held him there, the dragon’s eyes grew large as he was in essence under Jarmore control since he could dictate where he wanted the dragon to be and since he’d caught him in a precarious spot the dragon wouldn’t be able to attack him with ease, glaring at the dragon Jarmore spoke up “why attack me?” the dragon spoke up after Jarmore tightened his grip on him, his talons threatening to pierce through the scales, “don’t you know who lives there, everyone stays away from her, she’s aggressive to all who approach we simply wanted to stop you from getting hurt” Jarmore shook his head “what I do is my own business, you might have been spared a hardship had you had chosen to not bother me” Jarmore breathed ice breathe upon the dragon's wings covering them completely which kept the dragon from being able to use them, which at this point showed just how strong Jarmore was when he could maintain his grip on the dragon and maintain his position while holding the dragon. The Dragon started to panic and started swinging his tail trying to hit Jarmore which only upset Jarmore causing him to suddenly fly towards the forest below them with great speed with the dragon being dragged behind him, Jarmore pulled up suddenly releasing the dragon who slammed into the forest ice shards flying all over the place. Jarmore remained where he was for a moment before he flew down and changed just before he landed and simply walked over to the dragon who was now struggling to stay awake. Shaking his head and simply raised his hands to which started glowing and he began to heal the dragon, and only after he was done he spoke “[next time leave me be, I understand you are afraid of her but I’ve been around a while so I can take care of myself young one, leave the problems to those who are far older and wiser” the dragon simply nodded and just stayed there as Jarmore changed and took off without delay, what started out as a simple search for someone who needed him ended with him having to correct a mistake by a pair of dragons who should have left things well alone.

As Jarmore flew in no particular direction he fully understood now that most of the males around were absolute idiots, it was a wonder how any of them survived past hatchling, or for that matter how they weren’t raised properly, perhaps he was a little harsh but the two that bothered him didn’t deserve to be called a dragon, perhaps a Drake would suit them, the more he thought about it he threw that idea out, to many good drakes out there who would take offense to that thought so he simply would regard them as children since they clearly weren’t as mature as they first appeared which might explain why there were so many in this group or for that matter why there were so many that had no mates of their own. Eventually Jarmore found himself by a section of the mountain range that he was unfamiliar with and simply looked around for a moment before he resigned in his attempt to see that black dragon, he’d have to keep his eyes out in the future and flew up into the air content to simply soar through the skies before he decides whether or not to pester the elves and get a meal or simply hunt for something around here.

The smell of a meal that to his nose was a perfectly prepared meal gave Jarmore pause, he’d spun around the smell of a prepared meal drove his curiosity so much that it warranted a look to see who the cook of such a mouthwatering smell was, clearly, they knew how to prepare a meal which was cause enough for him to dart off in the direction of the smell. His pace was swift but not so much that he would lose the smell of a good meal and eventually found himself back where he was before to his surprise the dragons he’d fought were nowhere to be found which suited him just fine, clearly, they’d learned their lesson and he simply flew down to the ledge and immediately noticed the cave which to his surprise the smell was coming from and carefully looked around before he approached the cave entrance. Once he has in front of the cave Entrance he looked around again suddenly feeling slightly uncomfortable entering someone else’s home, which was slightly odd since he did so on a regular basis when he dined with the nobility at the Elven Realms, though they at least invited him in this was different.

Changing to the alternate form he sighed and simply walked in his hand on the pommel of his sword as he carefully walked in the direction of the smell. Not wanting to be a surprise to whoever was living here he felt it would be best to announce his presence so he spoke up “hello?” he kept walking his eyes scanning around for signs of movement as he kept walking towards the smell.
