"maybe phaedrus just left. I don't know how dragons think."

"Phaedrus wouldn't leave us!"

[Chasmgoat he/him]

"sure. Maybe. I am going to take a nap. I am really tired."

"Go ahead." Ollie turned away from him, glancing upwards to try and spot Phaedrus.

Pia stepped out of the snow carefully and tiptoed over to Ollie. "What are you looking for?" she asked.

Xasah and Devan have finally made it to their destination- the huge waterfall. They both collapse immediately next to the pool at it's base. They just lay there for a few minutes, silent and motionless.

Finally, Devan drags himself over to the pool and starts lapping water from it- Xasah soon does the same. Then, both still wordless, they shakily stand and begin to ascend a stone ramp up beside the waterfall and leading behind it, which then turns into a large tunnel leading into the further into the mountain.
After three minutes of walking through the large, stone tunnel, the only sound being the rumble of the waterfall behind them, Devan breaks the silence.
"This place gives me the creeps..."
"Hush! Don't provoke... them." Xasah says in a low tone, glancing around
"Alright..."
Another couple of minutes later, the tunnel begins to widen until it finally dead ends in a huge antechamber.
The whole room radiates an aura of ancientness and power, keeping the pair silent.
Suddenly, a frenzied whispering begins, appearing to come from the walls. After a couple minutes, a single clear voice rings from the chaos.
"Why have you come here, young dragon of the rumbling sky? And you, young Kippie?"

"W-we came to inform you that Ironclads have been sighted in the mountains, g-great spirits of the mountains." says Xasah
A rumble goes through the chamber, the whispers intensifying.
 "Impossible. There hasn't been a Rider of the Skies in these mountains for a hundred years. The leaders of the humans swore to never enter these mountains, and have kept that promise for a century."

"I heard it, Guardians. It was a horrible sound and-"
"You only heard it? Could it not of been something else?"
"P-Phaedrus seemed worried, great ones."
They seem to consider this for a moment.
"Hmm. She is wise, and we especially doubt she would mistake the sound of a Craven. We will investigate. Now, you may leave."
"T-thank you, great ones." Xasah finishes, as he turns and begins to run as fast as he can without offending them.

A scene flashed in Tangerine’s mind. Fire, screams. Her voice quiets, and she looks down. “Yes.”

Cavalier the kippy walked up the mountain, alone.

"Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagggghhhhhhhh!!" he screamed.

He continued on his way.

He looked up at a fellow kippy peeking down the mountain.

“Hi!” he said cheerfully.

Pia hid. Another new person to deal with? No thank you. The others hadn't seemed to notice her, which suited her just fine.

[Mat he/him]

Snowy jumped for joy. “More friends! Yay!” He had basically forgotten about the Ironclads.

[Knight of Iron she/they]

"Who the heck are you guys!?" Cavalier asked, reaching the peak they were at.
