Not yet, but patience reveals all.
The dragon landed on top of the castle quite gracefully for a beast his size and roared again. He then turned around and hung his head down, sniffing.
Tiamat circled above the castle, watching.
The horn would prove useful.
On’nyosh felt the vibrations in the castle as the dragon landed and snickered. He leaned against the wall, the horn slipping from his still shaking hand and landing on the floor.
“I suppose… the dragon that was in the throne room… has gone, huh?”On’nyosh asked.
The dragon growled.
“Fuck off… with the attitude, Boromaxus. I’m not… in the damn mood,”On’nyosh said.
The growl stopped.
“You called me to fight another wyrm, and then it vanishes? I thought you were better at this game,”Boromaxus hissed, his voice echoing off the walls.
“Well… when you’re fucking hurt… skills tend to slow down,”On’nyosh replied.
Boromaxus snorted.
“You know nothing of pain, jester. I only tolerate you because your skills amuse me.”
“Ever heard of Red Mist, jackass?”On’nyosh replied.
Silence.
“Thought so. That’s the other fucking dragon,”On’nyosh hissed.
“You dare try to pit me against that fiend!”
“You’re afraid?”
Boromaxus growled.
“Then what’re you complaining about?”
“You are foolish to believe I am suicidal.”
“And yet you’re still here.”
Boromaxus huffed and moved away.
On’nyosh sighed and glanced at his door, hoping Cass or Vē'Êtherñøth, or both, would walk through it at any moment. He then took a step toward the bed and collapsed, unconscious.
Tiamat chirped. So, the jester, this On’nyosh that Cass seemed to adore, had befriended the great Boromaxus, one of the least sociable of the ancient reds in the Alyiin Mountains. Interesting.
