"It's not that simple. If I want to grow wings then I need to stimulate the dragon blood in my body. It is very weak. That's why most of the higher tier warriors often receive a drop of dragon blood by the royals or their elders. I would say that only a few have the privilege of flight. It's not like you who can do it from birth." The dragonkin seed to be explaining flight to Midnight. There was an expression that spoke a thousand words on the dragonkin's face. It was clear that they wanted to fly one day.
The response from Midnight was a slightly rough growl and glare. Walker could tell that she was telling him that everyone should be able to fly if they desired to do so. This was how Midnight felt because she had wanted to fly for a very long ti and worked toward it every day. "I know, but I'm not like the dragonkin born with a better bloodline out of nowhere. Look at my wings, they lack the muscles to fly. I'm a water affinity, not a wind affinity. I can't even fake it."
"Just because the wind affinity dragonkin might find a way to fly doesn't an you can't. I bet that you can do more to discover your skills and beco stronger. You are a dragonkin what? What is your system? I bet we can work on it." Walker used this mont to join the conversation. Midnight had seen him and was waiting for him to join in as well.
"I don't doubt that this is true, but I have not seen any dragonkin pull it off. I am just a warrior here. My strength is with my fists. But I can use a few skills that manipulate water in to ice that can cover my fists." The dragonkin was not the happiest admitting that they were unable to properly use magic. They had envied the dragonkin with such systems and abilities because they were more diverse in battle.
"Then you already have a path there. Why can you only cover your fists in ice? Why not use the wings you have as a base and cover them in ice to create a full pair of wings? Then you can learn to manipulate them to fly. It would be similar to other ice dragons and it might just get you a little higher in the dragonkin ranking." This seed to open the dragonkin's eyes. "I also think Midnight could use a training partner for flying. She had also been practicing her frost breath skill." Walker was proud of the small idea he had. He knew it would be difficult but the dragonkin seed like they were giving up and needed a push.
"I would be honored to assist in the flight training. If I can help in any other way it would be more than I could ask for." There was a clear excitent in the idea that the dragonkin could manipulate ice on their fists to their wings.
"By the sa principle, shouldn't you be able to make ice armor as well? Maybe it will all be one skill that uses your close combat and water affinity?" This was helping Walker to see the connections of his own elental skills. He had heard of certain spell swords or other systems being able to make armor with their elents. It would be sothing he could train as well.
"I will attempt that after so study. I have neglected my affinity because I did not value it the sa as others. I have seen my foolish thinking and will work to improve it. You have my lasting gratitude."
"I know you would have reached these conclusions yourself. I just want to make sure you find Genesis worth the trip." Walker smiled wide since he was happy to be of help to a dragonkin that was much older than him. "By the way, Midnight, do you want to co to the water elf city with , Gil, Alma, and Leon? We need to try and get them in to the alliance before they catch wind of the mage tower."
Midnight arched her head in curiosity while she thought about it. It was a good chance for her to work on her frost breath since it would be a lot of water. Not to ntion that it was more relaxed due to the fact that they were not trying to exterminate a brutal monster. It wasn't more than a minute before she started to nod her head. Walker could feel her renewed energy that would be directed toward a new adventure.
"If it is not too much trouble, may I co along? My two companions can remain here. I would value the knowledge of how Genesis plans to grow relations with other races. It would be valuable information for my elder when it cos ti for the royal dragon court to gather." This made a lot of sense to Walker. He wanted the dragons to see the worth that genesis had in every possible way.
It was a welco stress reliever having a dragonkin warrior with them. The dragonkin were known for their battle strength so if anything went wrong then they would be safer. There was also the fact that the water elves should be able to respect the dragons. While Walker did not show that he was related to dragons, Midnight and the dragonkin would be able to make the water elves know that they should not be pushed around.
"That sounds great. I think we can leave tomorrow if you want. The journey should be shorter because I want to see if we can take a ride on one of the giant hawks still around from the tar's guild. I think Elise will set us up with one or two." Walker was looking forward to the conversation with Elise.
