Tlos The Drsgon Destiny

chapter 2: the way of the elements the keep's teacher,

Cronia woke up the next morning in the keep. the chronicler already awake sitting in front of the tome of time. seemingly searching the pages for something,

Cronia got up on her feet and walk into the main room. "good morning chronicler." Cronia said as he look up from the book. "ah morning to you as well Cronia. you slept well I presume?" The chronicler said as a quill dip itself in ink and wrote in the tome,

"I did. now what's on the schedule for my training? Maybe fighting a bunch of test dummies? or or maybe using my element in new ways I haven't thought possible? Or maybe even—" the chronicler stopped her questions. with holding up a talon to silence her flurry of questions,

"First my young study. you must learn patience your element embodies patience itself." the chronicler told her as Cronia sat down. "yes chronicler I'll try and be more patient. and not let my eagerness get the better of me." Cronia said as the chronicler nodded. it was a good step forward,

"Good let's head below then." the chronicler said as the tome of time shut. and floated back to its pedestal,

"Down? To where?" Cronia asked as she followed the chronicler. out a entrance leading deeper into the keep,

"The celestial caves your new training ground your true teacher." the chronicler said and soon they were in a huge cavern. "wow where to do begin?" Cronia asked as the chronicler smiled. by the sound of wing beats in the distance of the cavern,

A dragon or at least what a appeared to be one was approaching them. landing gracefully next to the chronicler its sleek body gleamed with power of elements. seeming to swift colors slowly and it begin to speak and its voice was female,

"Master welcome home. and I see you brought a new dragon." she said bowing her head to both Cronia and the chronicler. "yes this is Cronia she is my new study. and thought you would be the teacher to start her training." the chronicler said as the dragon scanned over Cronia and nodded. "yes I feel the time element within her master. I shall guide her the best I can." she said as the chronicler nodded. "I leave her in your care then. Cronia I'll see you later." the chronicler said as Cronia nodded and he took his leave. leaving cronia alone with the elemental dragoness,

"The chronicler seems to want me to be your guide through lessons here. at the keep miss cronia. master's word is law to me so I shall abide by his wishes." the elemental dragoness said as Cronia look around and walked with her. through the celestial caves to what would be her first task,

"I'm Astra by the way. I am pleased to be accompanying you. master trusts you so I shall as well miss Cronia." Astra said as they walked through the celestial cave. the cavern lit up by glowing crystals embedded in the walls and ceiling,

The two came across a crystal formation. same as the one that attacked Cronia and the chronicler. when Cronia came to the keep. just like clockwork they begin to come alive roaring in warning of an attack,

"Alright Miss Cronia. this should do fine as a first task." Astra said as Cronia look at golam beasts with a bit of wariness. "what are these creatures Astra?" Cronia asked as she look at the creatures. their crystals different colors,

"These golems are known as crystalline brutes. they are very territorial and are very prone to attack any trespassers." Astra explained as her body changed color to green symbolizing the earth element. as she prepared to demonstrate how to take on the crystalline brutes. who were staring the two down,

Astra surged fore as the fire element crystalline brute. attempted to smash her in the head with its large club like arm. It missed with Astra's agile form. and Astra turn her head to the golem. and shot a blast of the earth element. with such force Cronia felt the shockwaves of the blast. as the crystalline brute crumbled to nothing but shards of crystals completely obliterated,
