Ash was an adorable male of Clouded Mith and was the one accompanying Brunhilde and the dragonesses who were going to retrieve their fighters.

-We're close to the first one on the list.-

Announced the mith as he fluttered as fast as he could before surrendering to the fact that he wasn't as fast as them and landing on one of Thrud's paws.

-Are you sure we won't face any problem?-

-Positive, this…-

Ash showed a medallion with the rune of his clan on it.

-... is basically an international pass for everywhere, nobody will stop us. Not even Olympus Clan.-

Brunhilde nodded silently.

-Now, let's land right there, there is an herd of centaurs where we should find out first warrior.-

-Alright. I just hope the others at home are doing fine…-

-Come on, we've been away for two hours only, what could ever go wrong?-

.

.

-Let's eat them, come on…-

-Please, don't give me a migraine, it's really not the time.-

There was a reason after all if Aberrations who were always on the same side were a rarity and having to guard three relatively young dragoness was really annoying for the one of the "two" who had less patience, especially since only one dragoness out of three had a pleasant character.

-At least Göll, let me ease her constant suffering.-

Hrist had to find a way to distract herself quickly.

-Why don't we go for a walk at the markeplace?-

Proposed Alvitr as she and Hlökk tried to untie Göll's body, who, as every Spiral in a state of panic or boredom, got herself in a knot the moment she got worried about the future if the mission.

-That's a good idea!-

-Maybe we can find some relaxing herb to make the wait less "difficult".-

That wasn't the only reason for them to explore.

When a dragon was about to be exalted, they had to left behind their familiar and every personal effect, dragons born in the territory under the Olympus Clan's control could be exalted even before adulthood if the "lords" found them interesting enough or worthy to join their ranks and those dragonesses blessed by Gladekeeper fell in that category.

To make things short: they were like young dragonets who had yet to take their first steps outside the nest and live their first experiences and curiousity was eating them alive, so, why not take advantage of their free time?

-Please, behave.-

-We're not hatchlings…-

-I was talking to myself.-

.

.

-It's just me, or the market here is a bit…-

Hrist's eyes wandered over some stands showing off particular toys and accessories.

-... eh…-

-Yes, ther's finally some interesting merch, I was tired of those carts at the edge of Hewn City. All the same.-

-Some of those are similar.-

Observed Göll noticing a stand where dragons could interact with some familiars like at Fiona's.

-Wait, where are our sisters?-

-Hlökk is right there.-

The lilac Spiral pointed at the familiars' stand, where some of those who were living voodoo dolls were literally covering the blonde Fae, letting themselves being hugged and squeezed as their plush bodies contorted (without feeling any pain) under the strenght that even a dragon slightly bigger then a cat could have.

-Need help, sis'?-

-Let me die here from happiness!-

-Got it~

-Where's the other one?-

They looked around for a bit, finally sighting the other Fae trying to win something at a card game against a brown-striped Mirror and a white and cerulean Obelisk.

-What did you bet?-

Asked Hrist preparing to let her less-diplomatic self deal with things.

-Nothing, I'm trying to win.-

-You better do it.-

The other two dragons, prince Alex and Leon (another member of the royal family) shared cruel grins at the hopes that were soon to be shattered.

-What do you win if she loses?-

-Ohohoh!-

-You'd like to know!-

Both the heads of Aberration took a deep breath.

"We're gonna need a new sister."
