Ikzer stopped playing his music after a little bit and it seemed like they slowed down and the world sped up again. It was disoreinting. Ikzer gave an apoligetic smile,"It gets hard to play after a while." Was all he said.
Rae raised an eyebrow but Pyg climbed down her nose and onto her hand to make a nice jump over to Ikzer. Giving a little cute squeak as it went along.

"So, is that a spell you were casting with your flute," Father McCreay asked.

Ikzer smiled,"Yeah. Just to make us move a bit faster, although I could still play it it just becomes bothersome after a little while."
"So your a magic user?" Rae asked suprised.
How you think I do my shows?" He asked her back. "I use a bit of bard magic as well as illusion magic mostly just to help me get to places faster though."

They traveled in some silence and in Rae's opinion this would be so much faster if they could jsut fly there. She wanted the air beneath her wings and she wouldn't mind carrying them as well. It would still take a while to get to thier desintation. But it would be faster then walking as well. Maybe this would also help if she had told them all she was a dragon...like the Ellcry had said.
Nvira chuckled,"Our dragon is thinking of flying and carrying us all she wants to know what your answer is."

You can tell her no. I need to feed before we reach Marienburg and that may prove difficult while flying with her.

"No we do not beleive it to be a good idea Rae. Valen needs to feed he can do that when the others are asleep. Not while flying though."
Rae gave a small nod that could have been towards anything but she still didn't look happy about it. She crossed her arms and soon complained that she was tired. Just wanting to get his hunting over with so that maybe she could fly soon.
Ikzer didn't seem too tired but the human did. So he didn't complain when Rae said something about making camp. He let Pyg run around a little bit and smiled up at Rae when she sat down beside him.
Rae didn't want to admit she liked this dark elf. Ikzer actually paid more attnetion to her then even Valen did. And Valen wasn't the type you went to with troubles unless...you wanted something killed. Rae could do that herself. She couldn't help but feel a bit controlled when thinking about how she couldn't fly because of him.
Nvira reported the amusing news to Valen. "She is stopping so you can hunt when they sleep as well she finds you unsensitive and controlling on what she can and cannot do."

She wouldn't be the first to think that.
Valen went to go get some wood for the fire and returned shortly thereafter. He would wait till they were all asleep to go and find something to hunt. After Valen had got a fire going Father McCreary proceeded to make a fine dinner of some lamb chops and vegetables they were given by the Elves. It was very good and Valen complimented his cooking skills after he was done.
"Thank you. I do feed people a lot so I have learned how to cook quite well by now."

Nvira chuckled. "Well she certianly has some nice dragon curses for you... annnndddd. she is done with you and goggling Ikzer." She did a commentary throughout the whole eating process they had to Valen. Diffrent wolrds completly while Rae thought of ikzer as a go too and didn't admit anything about being in love or even liking Ikzer but as someone to be used. Ikzer was considering why Raetherstria was diffrent then the others and even though he knew he was here to fulfill his promise and travel around some more he wasn't sure thats completly why he was there. Smething had compelled him to go... (Which Nvira had told Valen it was him being compelled by promising a dragon something and therefore binding) Ikzer had heavy thoughts while Rae just seemed to not care and use him for warmth that night as well. Nvira chuckled at this part as well and decided to bite comments back. "Can we go killing now please?" She asked like a little kid wanting a popsicle. "I can't beelive you could hold your thirst so long I mean...I know I can't but I am built that way. Just blood...yummm...." She purposely thought of blood and beating hearts that were around them placing the feeling into Valen subetly. Making it tempting.

Father McCreay was the only one awake now. "Father, I am going to go get more wood for the fire."
"Alright, be careful, although I think these lands are much safer than most."
Valen nodded and then left. Once he was far enough way to not be seen he broke into a run and searched for something to feed on. He eventually came across a small farm. Since he was having trouble finding large game out in the plains he decided this would do. He crept up to the barn and went inside. In the stalls he found several cows.

Nvira seemed kinda untempted by cow blood but she didn't complain. She knew things like this took time. Time was something she had plenty of and so did he. Making him the perfect master she could think of. Why had she not seeked out a vampire before she wondered. Many vampires would love to have such a possesion as herself. Something that could live as long as them and be a great companion and know the need for blood as well as they. Nvira shivered almost as if a live coming to this conclusion to either be a sword to drow again or vampires. Humans were just too little lived...well a king a while ago was fun to corrupt...but that was a diffrent story. She was made for long lived creatures. "Valen the others are going to be waking up soon we should head back."
Rae woke up first being an early riser. She looked around and didn't see Valen so she just stretched. Pyg jumped on her shivering a little so Rae kept him warm with her hands. She looked at the fire that was just smoldering at the moment. She added more wood to it and kept Pyg warm near it.
Ikzer woke up next but he didn't seem to notice Valen was gone or he did and didn't comment. He wrapped his hands around Rae's waist.
For a second Rae didn't know what to do with Ikzer touching her like that. With his arms around her and warming her up more but then he just took Pyg into his hands and laughed as he retreated. Rae turned around with a small blush on her cheeks. "Thats not nice!"
Ikzer looked at her innocently,"Do what?" He said as he threw Pyg up into the air which seemed to enjoy the height and didn't mind swinging aorund from finger to finger after he was caught. "Pyg usually bites the fingers of adults, but never kids." He shared with Rae thinking it intresting.
"Your an adult." Rae smirked.
"Yeah and you think Pyg hasn't made a snack of my fingers?" He asked as he bent one finger down to make it look like it had been taken off.
Rae just smirked,"Your childish." Was all she commented. She ahd fogotten about maybe waking up Father or Valen not being there.

Valen silenced the cow quickly with his powerful jaw and once he had his fill he cleaned himself of the splattered blood with some water and then went to go find some wood like he had promised and then returned to camp. Father McCreay woke up just as Valen was returning. "You're just now getting back?"
"Yes, sorry. I got turned around last night somewhere and got lost."

Rae sobered up still a bit irratated at Valen. She eyed Nvira for a moment and then sighed relaxing.
Nvira seemed to send an alert through Valen for a moment at Rae's actions but once she sighed and reaxed so did Nvira. But still stayed on edge,"Maybe we should let her fly today?" Nvira asked Valen. "She is very much on edge of not being able to show her true form or be useful to the group. So much that she almost just attacked you for ruining her fun." It wans't ture that RAe had almost attacked but Nvira knew Valen would believ her after the look Rae had given Valen for a split second before relaxing.

Rae gave a small frown but then smiled. "Alright lets have breakfast first." she let Ikzer cook though since she didn't know how one bit. After they were done Rae was almsot bouncng with excitement. "Alright Father, Ikzer. Please do not be alarmed but since this walk will still take us a long time and the Ellycry said soemthing about me hiding my true form, I wanted to show you something and let you guys think as we go along our journey." Her bulk changed quickly and she changed into a magnificant white dragon. She wasn't standing up completly staright she had a wing extended to let them get on her back to ride though.
Ikzer nearly fell down with disbelief he jsut stood there sputtering then finally shut-up and looked at Rae hatefully. He had promised a dragon of all things something! Had he known he never would have done so she could use his words agianst him. Dragons were greedy creatures and horded promises like thier treasures.
