Stunned silence was the first thing that Gil and Alma were capable of. However, there was a growing feeling in Alma's chest. One that was foreign to her normally. One that she had not needed to show.
"How pathetic." The disgusted tone that Alma allowed to escape her lips was enough to make anyone's skin crawl. "To think that the fla elves have fallen to such a sad low in their generation."
The words of retaliation caught in the fla elf king's throat. "You do not know a single thing about the outside world. Your streets are full of pretty things and nothing else. Your ideals are old and flawed. Genesis is where everyone is EQUAL. Every race. rfolk, elves, humans, dragons, dwarves, goblins, grey haired spiders, demi-humans, and every race to join us as we grow." Seeing the fury in Alma's eyes made Gil wonder just how angry she truly was.
"I did not give up my na for the future title of queen. Instead, I give my ti and dreams. I will stand for all elves, even you in your delusions. But know this, you will not have a place in Genesis with your foolish ideals that you are better than anyone else. That worthless thinking will slow the growth of the harpies on the cusp of obtaining their rights as a proper intelligent race. It will poison the bonds we work hard to forge." Alma looked at Gil with expectant eyes.
"You speak ill of myself and my entire race but you lack the knowledge of what we have done. Humans have fought alongside dragons. We have discovered ruins. We have brought many races together already. But that is small to you since you are blinded. Alma would still stand for you if you gave up your poor world view." Gil was sure that Alma had been waiting for him to join her. His words had to match her tenacity.
"As I stated before, my titles are many, my bonds great. But if I need to explain it in simpler terms, I am a human arcane archer. And I am better than most archers that elven race gives birth to. Can you say the sa? Can you say that you have everything above a human? Because I see nothing worthwhile here."
Gil took a deep breath and began to reinforce Alma even further. The more he spoke the higher she seed to stand. "Where are the other elental spirits? All I see are fire spirits. How sad that you thrust them out because that is the only explanation. The fruits I saw in your stalls were there for looks, but no one was buying. Your people moved as if forced to. Do you have any respect for your own people? I would never support such acts. Every single being in this world is equal and deserves such respect."
Zephyr took the opportunity to float in to the air causing a breeze to rifle the room. The fa elves looked at her with panic. They had not expected a grand wind spirit to be in their presence. "Do you not recognize a grand wind elental spirit given a na by the world? Do you not recognize Zephyr, my family?" This statent alone shook the fla elves' hearts.
It had been generations since a grand elental spirit had been seen within their walls. The fla elves had once been living in turn with a grand fire elental spirit but it had left them. Since that day they had done any and all things to recover their ability to house it with no success.
"Blasphemy! We are pure fire elental beings that represent the true elental will of the world. We will clean your sins from the face of the world! Do not walk in here believing you can forc-"
"You will remain silent!" Alma shouted full force. "I would not give my hand to such a narrow minded fool who can not even care for his people. You do not deserve the title of fla elf king. Nor do your people deserve a place in Genesis unless they can open their eyes!"
At this point, the fla elf guards burst in to flas. The fires changed shape becoming armors. Gil was witnessing the fla knights that he had been told about but not in the way he had hoped to. "Gil, have you used your party chat to tell Walker?" Alma knew that they needed help. But she was worried that Gil had been caught in the mont forgetting to ask for it.
"Don't underestimate . If it's for your safety, I would call for the entirety of Genesis to go to war. I sent him a notification the mont I saw the oddness of the elental spirits." Gil smirked as he watched Alma reach down and touch a root of a crag tree. The entire floor was made up of them.
"Then we will wait for them. Protective asures!" Alma had the enforcers encircle her and Gil. Gil had arrows drawn ready to defend. The fla knights had begun to move inward. Towards them…
(Just after Gil sent Walker a party chat notification.)
"Ignus. I need to cut this short. My family needs ." The radical change in conversation was enough to show Ignus just who Walker was deep down. Every dragon was prideful. They would oust the weaklings from their nests. But that did not an they wouldn't defend those around them to the very last breath. Ignus was a pri example of the lengths he would go for. If sothing dared to harm a single dragonkin on his watch…it would spell the end for whatever had done so.
"If this is within my territory, I am obligated to co as well." This was his ho. Ignus owned and protected it. No one would be allowed to harm a royal dragon or their family. No matter how Ignus felt about them. This was a dragon's pride.
