Sol's ears twitched as he gave Helios a hopeful glance. "I will consider, Helios. Thank you." Sol dipped his head, pacing the short truck entrance once again. As he gazed out at the rocky desert, he noticed the unmistakable dust trail rise into the morning sky like smoke. Sol let out a choked breath, grinning as the last transport truck crested the horizon. A small part of his mind gnawed at the anticipation, a silent warning. Well, be that way. He didn't care if his hopes were dashed- because Tobias was on that transport.Silent tears once again slipped from Helios eyes and sizzled into steam as they rolled across his chest. The story of his time in the Scorpion Den was gut wrenching, just as bad if not worse then all of Helios’s nightmares of his sons prison, all those horrible dreams he’d had of his son being tortured or broken or forced to fight…or killed, itd all happened. It seemed the old Sol was merely locked inside his brain, unable to escape.
“There was nothing to live for. Because- because I forgot you." Sol looked up slowly, meeting his father's gaze.
"They were going to kill me. I was in the truck yard when Tobias came, and then... Then he saved me." Sol fought to keep his expression even. "He saved me."
The words fell heavy on Helios, he didn’t know how to react or what to say. “Sol I-I don’t….I- cant…how could they’ve done this to you? I don’t understand…” he replied slowly with confusion and sadness. A silence fell over them for a moment, Helios finally lifted his eyes again and met Sols. “I understand if you can’t come back…back to the kingdom. But please give it more thought, it’d be a chance to relearn you’re past…and with you- and your human friend.., I think we can start figuring out how to live peacefully again. A certain group of rebel cloudwings have been sending me messages about a plan for peace. A world where dragons are no longer under the rule of humans. You could help greatly.” He said, his voice finally steady and sounding like the king he was again.
He had to be on that transport.
Sol battled his emotions as he watched the truck approach, loping behind the vehicle when it rolled into the cavern, engine echoing loudly against the solid, rock walls.
His heart jumped, the truck pulled to a stop. The trucker left the engine running as he exited the vehicle, giving Sol a stern nod of acknowledgement as he moved to open the massive trailer doors.
@-Shade- @Crestcrazy2 @-Kiwi-
@SarcasticDrag0n, maybe Hibiscus could be coming in on the last transport?
Taber, you're good to RP the Trucker, just get Eclipse out of the truck for Pete's sake, it's taken forEVER to get them here, oh MY gosh-
