Dovah Sunvaar Chapter 2: Way of the Thu'um

The Titans watched in awe as they witnessed one of their own being taught by a dragon.

Their teammate Beast Boy turned out to be by chance, Dragonborn.

A mortal with the soul of a dragon.

The Dragonborn as a result had the inborn ability to learn what Paarthurnax called 'The Words of Power', or 'Thu'ums' as the dragons called them, 'Thu'um meaning 'Shouts'.

Three words, and then something happens. That's the simple way to explain these 'Thu'ums'.

Raven was fairly fascinated with this form of magic.

Yelling three words with a spell was something she was accustomed to but this was fairly different. Right now Beast Boy had so far learnt about five 'Thu'ums'.

The first one was called 'Unrelenting Force', Paarthurnax stated that this is the first Thu'um that a Dragonborn learns.

The words themselves are Fus Ro Dah, Fus meaning Force, Ro meaning Balance, and Dah meaing Push, Paarthurnax stated that this shout simply has one use, to push things and people aside.

The second Thu'um is called 'Whirlwind Sprint', the words are Wuld Nah Kest, Wuld meaning Whirlwind, Nah meaning Fury, and Kest meaning Tempest, Paarthurnax stated that this Thu'um is used to travel at high speeds.

The third Thu'um is called 'Become Ethereal', the words are Feim Zii Gron, Feim meaning Fade, Zii meaning Spirit, and Gron meaning Bind, Paarthurnax stated that dragons don't really have use for this Thu'um as much as mortals do.

The fourth Thu'um is called 'Clear Skies', the words are Lok Vah Koor, Lok meaning Sky, Vah meaning Spring, and Koor meaning Summer, Paarthurnax stated that this Thu'um is used to simply clear areas of clouds, mists and smokes.

The fifth Thu'um is called 'Fire Breath', the words are Yol Toor Shul, Yol meaning Fire, Toor meaning Inferno, and Shul meaning Sun, Paarthurnax stated that every dovah should know this Thu'um even Dovahkiin.

Beast Boy was now being taught a sixth Thu'um, this one is called 'Disarm'.

The words being Zun Haal Viik, Zun meaning Weapon, Haal meaning Hand, and Viik meaning Defeat, Paarthurnax stated that this Thu'um would be helpful against mortals with weaponry, as this Thu'um is used to well, disarm them of course.

Beast Boy was just as fascinated as Raven with his newfound abilities, but noticed something off with his Thu'um Master Paarthurnax, the old dragon noticed this and decided to answer the question before it was asked.

"Krosis, Dovah-Sunvaar. This is not enough to defeat Alduin."

Raven spoke up, "What do you mean?"

Paarthurnax seemed to take a deep breath before speaking, "Alduin, he is the elder brother, firstborn of Akatosh, he cannot be slain like a lesser dragon. There is a very particular Thu'um you need in order to defeat him."

Beast Boy shrugged, "Then why not just teach me that Thu'um, what's so bad about it?"

Paarthurnax replied, "I cannot teach you this Thu'um because I do not know it."

The team was confused at this point but also a tad unnerved, Raven spoke again, "I thought you knew all the Thu'ums, you are a dragon afterall."

Paarthurnax replied, "I don't know this Thu'um because it cannot be known to dovah, we cannot comprehend it's properties, it was created by mortals."

Roblin finally spoke, "I don't suppose you know where to find these people?"

"Or if they're alive." Cyborg added.

Paarthurnax thought for a moment, "There is a way, the Kel, the Elder Scroll…"

Raven seemed to become more fascinated, "Tell us, what is an Elder Scroll?"

"There are three, but you require one of them in particular if you wish to learn what is known as 'Dragonrend'."

Starfire decided to speak, "Where are these Scrolls?"

Paarthurnax thought again for a moment, "I do not know, krosis."

Raven got a thought, "How did you and the others get here, is there a chance these scrolls came with you?"

Paarthurnax turned his attention to Beast Boy, "Dovah-Sunvaar, she's a smart one isn't she?" Beast Boy smirked and nodded.

"Very."

Raven rolled her eyes, "So you're saying that these scrolls would likely be somewhere in our world now?"

"Geh, it is likely. Although, I do not know where, krosis."

Robin nodded, "Leave that to us Paarthurnax, you've been a very great help so far, sorry I doubted you."

Paarthurnax nodded in understanding, "Drem, it isn't a problem, zu'u hind hi pruzah nau hin nir fah fin Kel." (I wish you well on your hunt for the scroll)
