SkyDream12: We are fives years past Season 3.
Fanguy200: Well, another version of Rayla will appear, but the version for this universe remains dead.
Qalbora
It was a small valley, that much she could make of it. It was lush with life, a river of water flowed about. She had noticed that patrols of Elves seemed to move about the place, each of them on guard. She was concerned by that, her own team of Elves needed to get through and speak with Callum.
Qalbora was many things, a pacifist wasn't one of them. While she liked the peace, even she liked to vent out anger upon other living things from time to time. Shaking her head, she marched forward. Claws digging into the ground as she took each step.
She sniffed the air; she could smell another dragon. She sensed the Ocean Primal strongly within the dragon. Glancing down, her eyes fell upon a Tidebound Elf and her patrol. She was tall in her stance, her eyes questioning their presence. "Why have you entered this place?" The Elf demanded.
Qalbora leaned down, her great size had its advantage, but when it came to speaking with those below her, it was more of a nuisance then an advantage. "We were sent by Queen Zubeia to speak with Prince Callum." She answered, watching as the Elf nodded.
"Then we will take you to him." The Elf responded, pausing as she glanced up at Qalbora. "Though be warned, he is not who he was once." She warned, leading the way forward.
Qalbora mentally chuckled at Callum's home, or rather, lack of one. A camp with simple tents littered the place, Elves patrolled the borders of the camp, keeping a lookout for any hostile threats. Her eyes soon fell upon an Ocean Dragon, the dragon eyed her closely, as if determining whether or not to trust her.
The Ocean Dragon soon turned his gaze away from her to rest upon Callum who had emerged from his tent. He seemed slightly annoyed at having to leave something that Qalbora assumed was important. "What does Queen Zubeia want now?" Callum demanded.
Qalbora leaned her head forward, eyes locked upon Callum. "She wishes for you to stop this path of death. She commands that you head to Lux Aurea to meet with your aunt and overcome the death of your would be wife." She answered.
Callum narrowed his eyes as he released a small chuckle. He soon burst into laughter, the other Elves smirking with a few of them laughing themselves. "Stop?" He asked, eyeing Qalbora closely. "Stop this path of death? The only person who has died is Viren. And he deserved it." He replied. Shaking his head as he turned around.
"I will not back down, none of us will. What we have in mind, will result with a Xadia where no man, woman or creature has to suffer from the hands of the corrupted." Callum added, turning a gaze towards the Ocean Dragon. "Cendon, scout out Lux Aurea for our attack in the morning." He commanded.
The Ocean Dragon nodded as he spread forth his wings. With a powerful swing, he took into the sky, soring towards the Sunfire capital. Qalbora blinked as she glanced down at Callum. "You said you and your followers planned on making Xadia a place where no one suffered at the hands of the corrupt. What sparked you into doing this?" She questioned. "Was killing Viren not enough?"
Callum turned to face Qalbora and sighed. "Viren was but one of many corrupted by the war. In order for Xadia to truly be at peace. One ruler must rise above the others, one who isn't afraid to do what's needed to ensure that this peace lasts." He paused, his gaze moving towards the sky.
"That is why we exist now, because the peace that Zubeia, that my brother and the other human leaders believe exists, is nothing but lies. Humans and Elves still die your leaders, our leaders, turn a blind eye to the actions of a few." He finished, turning to face Qalbora again.
Qalbora nodded, she herself had issues with the current rulers, she knew herself that people still died because humans and Elves refused to accept the peace. But this idea of a world where peace would flourish, it sounded so good. "I want to join you." She said
Callum raised an eyebrow. "You want to join me, despite knowing that I will do anything to achieve this peace, including killing your own kind." He said.
Qalbora nodded. "If it means an era where no one dies from the senseless violence, then how you get there is irreverent." She replied.
Callum smirked. "Then when Cendon returns, we bring order to Lux Aurea." He said, heading into his tent once more.
Yeah, I set a theme with chapter titles, one a single word for the title of each chapter.
