"She was." Travis says to Luca.
Argus glares at the crater. "I hope we get to them soon. Likely they know we're here and Kanard's coming for us. We'll have to hold out until then or w find them on our own."

"MmmHmm...so pretty..." Luca mutters saddly "I miss her..." he whimpers
Brann nods "Yeah...here's hoping we can luck out and that'll be the end of the illusions if he knows it's us." he says. he glances at Shaylin a moment then back at the crater "Well, somethin' good came from that. I think I know why I felt compelled to protect her." he says "If what Arcturus told me is true, then I think you're a descendant of mine." he says "That other woman kinda' looked like you..."

"Wait...you might be related to Osiron?" Travis asks. "Damn...it's bad enough Shaylin and the Prince are."
"Travis, watch what you say." Argus says.
"I am, I'm saying it so Shiran doesn't." Travis says.
Shiran stopped walking the moment he heard Osiron's name.
And then it appeared before him.
"Please...help me...it...it hurts so much..."
Shiran and Travis couldn't stop staring. It was Connor...the way he was after the witches nearly killed him.
"Mom...I...I don't want to die..."
Travis falls to his knees. "Oh God..."
Shiran turns, seeing Malrot raise his arm. "Wait."
"Why would you wish for me to continue to see this farce?" Malrot says.
"My memories...I need to see this again. It...stirs the part of me that is....this boy." Shiran says as he kneels down beside he illusion. "He was bleeding badly...I smelt it from afar. I felt his sorrow."
Travis was averting his yes, not wanting to see this anymore.
Then another illusion appeared. It was a disgusting bulbous combination of a leech and centipede.
"And there I am." Shiran says.

Shaylin goes to Travis and kneels next to him. she gets between him and the illusion and hugs him.
Brann watches, only to get his mind off his own vision.

"What...are you?"
"I am Shiran. I saw....what those witches did to you. I can save you...by joining with you. You can have revenge, and I can live."
"N....no...I just want....to go home....with the others."
"The other boy...I don't feel his presence anymore. Nor the one who got taken."
"Then...help me..."
Shiran watches this.
"Why....don't I remember this?" Shiran asks.

"Do you usually remember how you meet your hosts?" Brann asks

"Yes." Shiran says. "Which begs the question...why am I not seeing any difference?"
The images change, to show Shiran facing down a mysterious figure.
"LET ME THROUGH!!! I MUST SAVE HIM!!" Shiran yells.
"I'm afraid I can't allow that." The figure says.
"No..." Argus steps back as the figure reveals itself to be Jolden.
"My Master wishes you to remain on this side of the wall. You might be able to attract others...and with that might come help." Jolden raises his hand and chants a spell.
"My God...Dad...what did you do?" Argus says.
The spell is cast and it strikes the Shiran image.
"Now you will forget what you both were and wander. Not dead, but a lingering mystery for the other side to look for." Jolden says before the images fade.
"He suppressed the part of you that's Connor...damn it...Dad...what have you done? All of this...its your fault Dad." Argus swings and punches something.
A loud snarl is heard as a pair of wings suddenly rise.
"Oh fuck me..." Argus says as a tail knocks him aside.

Shaylin looks up at what Argus had punched "Brann..."
"Yeah, I'm on it." Brann says. he looks around "I'm going end up breaking things..." he sighs and starts transforming.
Luca stares at the scene, "So...someone wanted to lure people here?" he mutters, oblivious to the current danger.

"He wanted Travis' people to come...the the other side involved. This thing with Osion's son and his half sister...Vadris and the wall..." Argus says as he steps back.
"Is inconsequential compared to the dragon." Malrot says, readying his sword.
The Chimeric Dragon comes into full view. It's face a mixture of dragon, goat and troll. It's body a mess of green sickly looking scales and matted clumps of greasy grey fur.
"Man that's ugly." Travis says.

Brann finishes transforming and spreads his wings. he roars at the other dragon "Back. OFF!" he growls
"Oh my..." Shaylin says "He's...big."

"You're reasoning with something that's part troll?" Argus says, clutching his stomach. "Ahh...that hurt. Watch the tail then."
The dragon advances slowly on Brann.

Brann smirks "Oh you're going to come at me then? Stupid beast!" he roars and lunges at it.

"WAIT!!" Malrot raises his hand. "Attack it and I attack you."
"Why?" Shiran says.
Malrot points behind it. "She's protecting her young." There was a nest of eggs behind the dragon. "I will not see these children motherless."
--------------
"Hm?" Kanard turned away from the window to the figure behind him. "Is the outsider's presence getting to you? You seem tense Gamuldar."
"It's...my other half. Caedmon...I can feel his outrage at him." Gamuldar says. "Get going Kanard. Bring these people to me. I must investigate this further."

Brann flies upward at the last minute, and spots the eggs. "Right...plan B." he growls and lands between the dragon and the others. "Stay behind me." he says. he stares at the other dragon and then mirrors its stance.
Luca chuckles. "Now we're Brann's eggs..."

"Thank you." Malrot says, standing there.
"So, you can be decent." Argus says.
