Thorns and Claws
Mizuki had a point, even then when she was just old enough to take over it might not be the best idea depending on how things were. Not only that but there wasn't a rule against a male leading just it wasn't really heard of. Though to be honest Thalion was more then happy at the thought of stepping down at the moment. None the less he breathed out a little at the thought of it. "Well we have a while before that happens."

Thalion smirked a little as Mizuki said can they get this done with so he could sleep. "Can't promise how much sleep you'll get once the process starts .. but might as well get it over with." There might be a few details he left out, like with them being on low energy reserves the odds of this little process having no effect on either of them were slim to none.

Once they were both standing was when Ryza cleared her throat finally as Thalion looked at her. "What?" Ryza shrugged a little. "Oh nothing..." Though apparently Damien had mentioned how much he hated any titles and such as she finished what thought she had on her mind. "mi'lord.' Thalion glared at her a little before he started walking. "Great I'll never hear the end of it!" She smiled all the same before grabbing Vaden's arm and making him walk. "Come on old man."

Vaden started to suggest he stay behind before Damien spoke up knowing how to persuade otherwise. "Once in a lifetime opportunity and you want to miss it?" Listening to the three talk Thalion looked at Mizuki before sighing. "It half sounds like i'm putting on a show here doesn't it.." None the less the group followed the tunnels till they came to a overly large door that was covered in old markings and carvings. Gems scattered about it as well as Thalion looked at it before shrugging.

"Kind surprised they didn't try to break it down actually..." Vaden spoke up about this remembering that the Queen had tried. "It wasn't from lack of trying, but the doors have been sealed for the past..well back when the elven war took place." Only the royal bloodline could open the doors and they had been sealed from back when the curse was first formed. A means to a end it was suppose to be or so they thought, it was a bit of a grey area as to the reasoning behind the sealing of this place and the curse itself.

None the less Thalion moved walking towards the door as he paused a little trying to think of what ever that was needed to open it. After a moment he pulled out a small dagger and cut the center of his palm, nothing deep just enough for it to bleed really before placing the hand on the door in the center of a circle. After a moment he stepped back once the circle glowed and the wound on the hand seemed to heal about the same time. Though the door opening was a work of art on its own as the carvings twisted and moved against their frame, the door they had first seen was one with two dragons having their wings crossed blocking the door from opening.

Though now after the symbols stopped glowing finally and everything seemed still both dragons had their wings back and extended so the door could be opened. He never saw the purpose in all of the extra work put into such doors, it was a waste of time though a neat trick to watch none the less. Though a moment later the doors opened finally as they seemed to lead into another much larger cave.

"Now the part I'm going to hate..." He said before taking a few steps before a roar was heard and his ears went back a little at the noise. Mizuki seemed to follow him as he smirked a little. "By the way .. she's a little cranky." He said but before the question could be spoken was when a large golden scaled dragon made her presence known as she took a few steps from the shadows her eyes golden as well and her scales were a vibrant mix of gold and silver in the light. The dragon was larger then most breeds recorded as she stopped moving and sat before the two.

Her eyes narrows before the jaws finally opened almost with a amused tone. "It took you over three years to heed my call?" Thalion sighed a little before crossing his arms. "Forgive me how long have you been in here? hat was three more years." He huffed before noticing that the rest of their group seemed a bit awe struck.

She was a gorgeous sight to behold. The mother dragon, she had been sealed here through the ages. One of the few if not the only dragons that could speak to anyone and not just her rider. Though her rider had died a long time ago thus she could no longer fly. It was a breed of elder dragons, thought to be extinct really though she might be the last of her kind. That or the others were sleeping in various locations.

"So then.. your promise?" She asked as her tail thrashed against the ground behind her a little before curling around her. Thalion sighed. "Not really the plan but it seems to be one in the same with my own needs.." The dragon snorted. The massive beast could probably kill the lot of them. Apparently there was a deeper tie as to why Thalion hated dragons and she might be the reason behind it. Making a deal with a dragon was not the smartest move and he had probably done so as a child.
