Corrin woke up after two days of searching for methods for Dion, everyone was searching, and he wanted to find a way to save both. Since there had been plenty of death from his own war, and Chrom's war. He looked at the window across from his bed, his mind thinking over what he had read over the countless books him and Azura had found for memory loss. Which was a lot, since Nohr had their own methods, something to do with dark magic. While Hoshido had their teas, and relaxation techniques with the hot springs. While Valla had Dragon's blessings, but that was gone now.
Ylisstol didn't have anything, since he was informed of Robin's memory loss, and she never got it back. And it was quite a mysterious past she had, though she eventually given up since she was enjoying her new life way more then the past she likely ever get her. Even with her options she found out that Hoshido and Nohr had. She didn't say she was interested, but sometimes, you just want to enjoy the new parts...
But all they had to relay on was the abilities in blood, and since he was a dragonkin, perhaps it would work better if he did, or they could use Dion's own blood, but it was quite a hard thing to suggest, since no one truly knows how it worked since the Silent Dragon is gone. Along with all the old Kings, and old Queens that used to rule Valla. It's not if they can talk to the spirits. He wished he could ask his mother, she would probably know.
Azura started to get rather close behind him, and he turned to her. She smiled at him, weakly. She had been quite tired lately, he couldn't blame her, it's been stressful for the last few weeks. Aion had attacked quite a few other times, but she kept getting away, and they had no energy to keep fighting her like this.
"Corrin, I'm going to go to bed. Please wake me up if you need me," Azura said, leaving to go their bedroom. Azura noticed how Corrin had distanced himself from her lately, ever since he had that anger, he couldn't seem to bring himself to talk to anyone really. All he must've wanted for this to be over.
Dion sighed, he was taking a small break from reading all those books. None seemed to be a great idea, he was to strong for teas, and magic. He looked at a book that was the to left of him, called "Ways to Open Up," author unknown. But it was an ancient book. It didn't seem to have much good information until he read of the "Dragon's blessing." He remembered hearing that phrase once, but he never knew who told him.
Perhaps he should talk to Corrin, but he knew the boy really didn't like him, since he hardly ever made eye contact with him. Then again, he knew what he did was pretty terrible.
Corrin eventually made his way to Azura's sleeping, and cuddled up next to her, letting himself nap for a bit. But that was quickly interrupted as one of the guards came barging in his room with an urgent message.
"King Corrin, Imps to the south!" the guard shouted with sweat running down his pale face, Corrin's eyes started to fill with fury. "I'm coming." Corrin said coldly, and prepared his armor quickly and went. Azura had been woken up, but Corrin was already gone. She felt honestly a bit shocked. But considering what was happening the last two months, she couldn't blame him. She hurried to get ready, and to hurry to him.
When she arrived to the scene, everyone was busying fighting the imps with eyes, but most of them every defeated by Corrin straight away. His red eyes burning with hatred for these monsters. "Corrin, calm down," Azura said, running to his side. He looked at her with panic as an imp tried to hit her from behind.
"Be careful, Azura," he looked like he wanted to yell, but maintained himself for her.
She looked behind her to see more of them started to come from the ground. She pulled out her lance, and started to fight with Corrin, and they got rid of them rather quickly. But many of the fighters were tired, since they weren't weak, but they were in training. And they was really starting to make Corrin dreadful. This whole thing since Aion hated Manaketes, was nothing but taxing. He looked Azura who looked at him with worry and he smiled at her weakly.
Dion walked up near both of them, "Corrin, I have a question for you." Corrin responded to Dion's voice right away.
"What is it?" He looked at Dion coldly, and the boy just pushed the feelings away.
"What is the Dragon's blessing?"
Corrin and Azura looked at each other, "a Dragon's blessing is what was used in old Valla," Azura said, since she had been studying as well.
Dion nodded with understanding, "so how do we use it?"
"We don't know," Corrin replied, closing his eyes, and breathed for a second before facing Dion again. "All of it has been lost to history. We couldn't find anything on it, either then it had been used once before."
"Can you show me the book you found it in?" Dion asked as he pulled out his own book that had the reference on his end. Azura took it from Dion, and looked at it questioning where it came from, but she opened one page from it.
"We found it in the old library of Valla, but a lot of the books were terribly damaged, and getting them restored by those who knew the history will be a long time," Corrin said, as his wife was busy looking at the book. She gently pulled on his arm, and he looked over. It was crystal clear to him, but she didn't seem able to read it.
"Is this an old book, Dion?" Azura asked, knowing full well her husband was able to.
"Yes," Dion nodded at the response, they quickly end to the Vallian library that had the book that referenced the Dragon's Blessing.
Then headed to Ylisse to find Robin, since she had the heart of Grima for a long time, she'd be able to read it too.
Chrom saw noticed them straight away as he was about for official business with Ferox, but Robin wasn't with him.
"Oh, Corrin. Why are you here?" Chrom asked with, but he looked at Dion with surprise. However, he never said anything.
"I'm looking for Robin," Corrin replied, with a soft smile to his friend.
"Oh, she's with the children in the fields nearby. May I ask why?" Chrom asked, obviously he'd be concerned about why would they want his wife near Dion.
"We have another book normal people like us can't read," Azura said, to be blunt.
Chrom nodded, "then take care of her, and be careful. I'll be back shortly."
Corrin and Azura waved goodbye to their friend, and went to the field, to find her and her child playing with the weeds. Young Lucina was acting as if the grass was her enemy, with a fake sword. Azura loved to see the young children that majority of her friends and siblings had. It made her start to feel a strange need for... someone to take care of, but she pushed the feeling down. Now wasn't the time to be feeling strange things.
Robin didn't notice them until her kids stop doing what they were doing and faced them. "Mommy, look," Morgan said, pointing to them. Robin turned to them, "Corrin, Azura, and Dion? What's going on?" She asked with a bit of concern.
"Dion found a book, apparently, only we can read," Corrin said, as he was a bit on edge.
She nodded, "Morgan, Lucina, go find Aunt Lissa," she said, her kids both nodded, and left.
Robin took them to an empty room, full of many books, and notes. The wooden floors were nice, though they hadn't been in this room before, though it smelt of fresh woods, and herbs.
"Let's take a look, shall we?"
Author's note: I've been on a small break from this story for awhile, I apologize.
My hand was developing carpool tunnel pretty badly. It's a bit better now. But this will be very slow in updating.
Very short chapter, I know. But next time will totally be longer.
Thanks for understanding and I hope you have a great day. See you all soon.
