Chapter 4
"We have been noticed." Windwolf said as the children looked at them. "By the way, what are we going to do?"
"Well, we need to talk to them. We need to find out why they can call the spell stones. All of the children that can call the spell stones need to placed in households and taught." True Flame replied. "They should probably be changed too. Being human and you know, mortal."
"Hello children!" True Flame called.
The children simply stared at him.
"Oh, yeah. They like you." Windwolf whispered. "You are a natural with children."
True Flame took a step forward and so did the little boy. He looked downright stubborn. He stood out from the other two. He didn't have their dusty skin or brown hair and eyes. He was the same height as the other boy. He had the look of a wind clan child. His azure eyes and dark hair stood out against his pale skin.
"That child is not human." True Flame stated incredulous to Windwolf.
Windwolf knelt down in front of Blue Sky. "Hello child. What's your name? Who are your parents? I don't recognize you."
"I'm Blue Sky, and this is Oilcan and Tinker. My parents are dead. Why do you ask?" Blue Sky looked downright distrustful.
"Are your parent's elven?" Windwolf questioned.
"My mother was human." He replied.
"And your father?" Windwolf continued.
"Look, why are you here? I doubt it is to question my parentage." Blue Sky countered.
"You're evading my question, and I will get to the bottom of it." Windwolf promised.
"How do you know how to make a shield?" True Flame asked softly to Tinker and Oilcan.
"Well, um, we learned it from a book." Tinker explained.
"Oh, where did you get this book?" True Flame continued.
"It belonged to one of ancestors. He wrote the book."
"How did he learn it?"
"I think he was a Stone Clan Domana."
"Really? How come you can call the spell stones too?"
Both of the dark children looked at each other and shrugged.
"That means they don't know." Windwolf translated.
"Alexander, Orwell, Blue Sky it is time for lunch!" Timothy Bell called.
"Who was that?" True Flame asked.
"That's Grandfather." Oilcan replied.
"I think that we need to talk." True Flame said.
