"yeah well it's whatever, just prove yourself that your not under his 'control' anymore and we will be fine. If you think I'm being rude it's because mutiple people I trusted betray me so I'm not so keen and just trusting people off a whim." She had her deadpanned or resting b face look on her as she followed along the conversation. "A dragon might be guarding it? That's awesome, I mean have you tried to maybe I don't know speak to it? Maybe if you guys had a nature elemental that could connect with animals you could get it on our side." She commented.
Amara spoke up to Kali, "Dragons don't speak, and this gives us a bigger chance, along with a new problem. What did this supposed dragon look like?"
"A red scaled dragon with black lining," Rais slides a book full of dragons, "It's him. Their gate was broken. Arcanis studied well, only to be blind on what he sought."
"yes well even if it dosent speak that dosent mean it can't be spoken too and still understand completely. I think it's worth a try but we also can't risk loosing someone huh." She heard the part about 'its him' assuming there's probably some gate arcanis broke or helped break and set the dragons free? Something close to that she would think.
"Thank you. Report to Ignis right away." Rais nodded and reached a far tent, Amara gestured Kali for them to leave, "This is too much. How much do you know of elementals?"
(I feel like I need to read everything to understand what’s going on. What do I need to know? I’ll post a character when I can)
(Whats the gesture to Kali supposed to mean And who's asking the question-)
(we are elemental, descendants of the first elementals. It was our ancestors who created the universe, it us who needs to defend it. Shadows, corrupted by Arcanis, wants to destroy what they created. By this age, elementals have the ability to use magic. The primary elementals keep a stone that amplifies their element.)
(I feel like I need to read everything to understand what’s going on. What do I need to know? I’ll post a character when I can)
(Okay so the plot and character sheet is in the first page, they killed a major bad guy a few pages ago- right now they are trying to figure out stuff with seals made by past elementals.)
(Can arcanis get reincarnated or can he come back?)
(a "lets go" gesture. a nod in a certain direction. and it's Amara asking as they make their way out.)
She walked towards the exit with Amara. "we have been in this for how long and your just now asking how much I know of elementals? Well I guess I know a lot more then what I knew before I joined up with you guys. Why do you ask?" She looked towards Amara glancing back at the camp as they left.
"That…is true," Amara seemed excited yet frustrated, "It's quite a lot to understand. We have fed you pieces to get you to know as much as we. Every elemental has their guardian. A very special creature and immortal. For centuries, we assumed they were dead, and that the legends weren't true. Until our scouts reported seeing Ignatius's dragon."
"Ignis has a dragon?" She asked Amara practically knowing the answer already. "What are the other elemental guardians?" She thought for a moment. "so you say they are immortal and yet you presumed them dead? Not vanished? Not disapeared, or just gone?" She couldn't help but point out the statement. "look I don't want to be fed information so if you have stuff I need to know you can just tell me, I want to be in the loop not just fed bits and pieces."
"They were presumed dead and legends thought were fake because they vanished over hundreds of years!" Amara became flustered, but Kali could only see the excitement, "They couldn't just disappear, they were the mightiest of creatures. They were gifted immortality by their own masters. They shared a link with their masters. So far three seals…four…were broken. Water, Air, Earth, and a seal hidden called "Guardian's Gate". If the the Flame seal is broken, the Life seal will be revealed. End of times and all that. Hey, remember the thing that hit us so long ago?"
"if they were the mightiest of creaures then wouldn't it better if they had just disappeared? again immortal means no death, not killable etc." she she shrugged at that tho. "yeah i remember the thing that hit us." she shoved her hands in her pockets once more. "So do you think maybe the dragon could be protecting the life seal? or maybe its a completely different seal from all of them. "
"No…" Ignis's voice caught Amara's attention, they weren't even out of the forest, "The dragon is protecting the seal because Ignatius told her to. Rais spreads word fast. The Guardian's Gate isn't another seal. It's a portal." Ignis smiles points to his head, "It was the last remaining choice they had so the Shadows couldn't corrupt them also, being immortal and all that. I believe the thing you were hit by…was…Kali's guardian."
"If the thing that hit us was my guardian then why the heck did it make us crash? do you think it could be corrupted? or maybe it didn't recognize us as elementals?" she wondered what animal it could be, she hoped it was something mythical or jus something cool i mean ignis got a fraking dragon man. "make sense for it to be a portal, where do you think it leads?" she ran over thousands of possibility as to where the portal might go to on the other end of it.
Name: Alister

Element: air

Short Backstory: Alister and his sister Noel are survivors of child abuse. Their alcoholic father would hit and scream at them, accuse them of being demons infesting his house. Now, Alister suspects he may have had schizophrenia. When he was around 11 years old, their father was throwing beer bottles at them in a rage, and eventually Alister noticed none of the bottles was hitting them. He realized he had created a sort of air shield to protect him and Noel. More strange occurrences and a few months later, their father kicked them out of the house. They went through a bunch of foster homes for a few years before running away. One day, they found an abandoned building that had once been a restaurant. They began staying there, Alister working odd jobs here and there.

(He good?)
(alister and kali have so much to bond over omg)
Ignis started walking them to the car outside the forest, "Remember, Darkness died young while her guardian lived generations. And I don't think it tried to kill or harm you. A dog jumps a familiar face not out of rage but of excitement. I think it's scared because of what it did. It hid in the shadows. Only the elemental can communicate, or summon it's Guardian."
(Yep lol I didn’t realize it until it was too late)
