Mana: A nice idea, sadly, during the rebuilding, they managed to get the Sunforge purified.

Purple-Eyes Dragon: Oh, I've managed to do something you suggested... Hmm, you'd think that being an artist, I'd pick those little details.

The Sun Arcanum

When Callum and Rayla reached the throne room, they saw Janai standing beside two people, one of them being Ahshala, the other however wore red armour. The top part of her armour was a dark red with yellow outlining, a red strap rested across her chest. A small dark red fire symbol rested upon the left side of her lower torso.

Her horns were large, somewhat similar to Ibis. She had dark skin and purplish eyes. She had a dragon like tail with hunched legs and feet with three claws. She also had five fingers. Upon her back was a large red hammer like scythe.

Janai turned to face Rayla. "These are my two candidates for the Dragonguard. One of my trusted generals, Ahshala and my most promised student, Aldua, a Khothori." She said introducing the two.

Rayla nodded as she eyed Aldua with interest and curiosity. "A Khothori. I thought they were wiped out during The Dark War?" She asked in confusion, watching as Janai nodded in agreement.

"So we all thought, till ten years ago when Sol Regem sent her to train under me." Janai replied, looking at Aldua with a small smile.

Rayla smiled before looking towards Janai "Well, we should find an area to train." She said.

Janai glanced towards Ahshala. "Ahshala, please lead Captain Rayla towards a training arena." She commanded, her gaze moving to fall upon Callum. "In the meantime, Callum and I shall have a talk as we travel to meet Flardryn." She finished.

Callum and Janai walked forward. The Sunfire Elf queen held her head high as they walked down the hallways of the palace. "Callum, you bare a resemblance to Archmage Arathorn, I can not help but be curious as to whether or not you have met him in person or heard of him before?" She said, breaking the silence.

Callum chuckled lightly. "The funny thing is, he's my father. A fact I only learned a few weeks ago." He answered with a smile.

Janai raised an eyebrow. "Oh, that would explain your Elven heritage." She responded, coming to a stop before a door. She knocked once and waited.

The door soon opened as a male Sunfire Elf stood tall, his skin was a darkish tan, he held a gold staff in one with a Primal Stone at the top of it. He wore a ruby red robe with gold runes decorating it His amethyst eyes glanced over Janai before falling upon Callum. "A Half-Elf mage, would you get a load of that." He said with slight surprise.

Janai rolled her eyes. "He claims to be the next Archmage after his father." She said.

The elf nodded as he eyed Callum up and down. "Why he does speak the truth; he is swarming with Primal Magic." He responded, turning to face Janai. "I take it you want me to train him in the ways of the Sun."

Janai nodded. "If it isn't a bother to you." She replied.

The elf shook his head. "A bother, a bother!" He began to exclaim with laughter. "I love teaching magic. And if he's anything like my old pal Arathorn, he'll be done within the month." He finished exclaiming. Janai nodded as she left.

"So, what's your name chap?" The Elf asked, leading Callum inside his office.

"Callum." Callum responded, pausing as he smiled lightly. "And don't worry, I'll be like my father and have this Arcanum mastered by the end of the month." He quickly finished with a large smile.

The Elf blinked before he smiled. "It's nice to know that Arathorn's bloodline continues to run and hasn't been reduced to his proud young brother and that anger consumed sister of his." He said before he paused. "Oh, where are my manners." He stated. "The names Flardryn, High Mage of the Sunfire Elves." He introduced with a joking bow.

Callum shook his head. "Alright, what do we need to know about connecting to the Sun Arcanum?" He asked, watching as his new teacher smiled in response.

"The Sun Arcanum. I assume you know the roles of each Arcanum, Sky being support, Ocean as healing, Earth as defence, Star as foresight, Moon as deception and manipulation and Sun as offense." Flardryn began, standing tall as he flipped open a large book.

"I do, I have already mastered the Sky Arcanum." Callum replied, watching as Flardryn stopped upon a page.

"To connect to the Sun Arcanum, you must feel the warrior within, find the fire that burns bright, the need to fight for others, to fight for your loved ones. Once you have found this fire, you shall know the Arcanum." Flardryn said, watching as Callum nodded.

"Ok, this might be a difficult one to connect to." Callum muttered, frowning as he did so.

Flardryn quickly glanced over the page. "Alternatively, one may find the fire related to growth and transformation, of having the need to create light within the darkness of despair." He said, watching as Callum smiled.

"Or not." Callum said, smiling brightly as he closed his eyes. "I just need to find the fire to transformation, to the creation of light and the need for growth." He added, breathing softly as he searched deep within himself.

Callum reflected over his many years, the growth he had experienced within the short few weeks since he stayed behind in Xadia. He looked over the transformations he'd made during his time at Caelus. How he created light in the despair of not knowing his father. He searched harder and harder, continuing to search through the memories of his life.

As he searched, he felt a fire build within his heart, the winds of the sky blew into it, fuelling it with energy, energy of growth and transformation. He felt the fire grow. He knew right away that he had connected to the Sun Arcanum.

"I've done it." He said, watching as Flardryn widened his eyes in shock.

Aldua is a character owned by Purple-Eyes Dragon, he/she also owns the Khothori. I hope her eyes are close to their actual colour.

What do you think of Flardryn's personality, is he light-hearted and humorous. He's definitely a change from Ibis, that's for sure.

Did you know, that Callum's weapon has a name, it's called Ashrune.
