Of course it was a dragon, size be damned it was still a dragon. Though it seemed to be a type of green and he wasn't sure if that meant he was lucky or not. Greens at the least didn't breath fire so there was that risk at the least gone. They were known to have acid and poisons though. Oh yeah this should be fun, every hope was the creature found a light elf camp and destroyed it. Though that didn't seem to be the case or his luck for that matter. Than again what luck did he have again?
Out of all the times for there to be a few youths out and about in a area where they shouldn't be it had to be today didn't it? For the moment the dragon didn't seem to spot the easy meal of the two youngsters. Maybe he wouldn't have to do anything, that would be good... What were they doing out here anyway!? Not that he had room to talk him and Madaes all the time ended up on the edged of the light elf areas if not in them at times just to see what they could discover. Saying goes curiosity killed the cat...
About the moment he started to relax because the two kids seemed to notice the beast as well and were keeping still he noticed the dragon seemed to take a new interest in the area they were in. Fantastic... he was going to have to do something, he couldn't just walk away knowing what was going to happen. Even a skill fighter against a dragon was a hard fight let alone children. This was not the best area to be exposing himself in either, not by a long shot. But he had no other real choice and as far as he knew there weren't any light elves in this area. Probably because of the beast.
He had moved already by the time the dragon found the two kids. Of course they started running, the dragon hunted by movement like a lot of the forest creatures. Odds were if they had remained still it wouldn't have been the wiser. But not the beast was quick to follow its new found prey, to a all too easy meal. One of the kids ended up tripping, hardly gracefully at that as the dragon closed in on it's target. raising its head it started its attack, it seemed to be preparing a spit of sorts though Rhyl was not about to take bets on what element it was. The green aura from it gave away it was one of two things. The child by this time was on his feet again standing there in shock, not that anyone could blame him. It was a dragon after all.
As the blast hit the ground a slight smog rose from it, apparently a form of toxin. Though the child was safe, just barely being forced from in front of the beast in a tackle. Rhyl let out a bit of a breath as he got the child to his feet again and told him to run now. The dragon was about to go after the boy before the sharp whistle caught it's attention. Great.. fighting a dragon Madeas was going to think he was mad. These creatures hardly were ones to give up a hunt. Not only that but giving away his position like that was not smart, even if it was buying the children time to run. Curse his conscious for making him do this.
