Of Feathers And Flames- A Wings of Fire AU RP

Eclipse smiled. Something felt so good about that. She had hardly been around another dragon in years, and the only good thing she could consider having done that wasn't out of her own self-interest had been rescuing Sunspot. If her experience in the Den had changed her in any way it was in this- she realized how much time she'd wasted hunting the Nightwing. She had been selfish, she had been rash. Maybe before she had fully come to accept and realize that, her subconscious had already learned the lesson.
"Of course," she murmured quietly to Sol. "I didn't realize how important Tobias was to you until after that, but now I understand." She stared up at the ceiling.
"Three moons. I actually, finally, understand."

Sol grinned. "He's different, huh? Than the other humans. He's good. Really good."

Whitestar reached out a talon toward Austin, scooping him up by his middle and plopping him almost carelessly on his back. His scales prickled uncomfortably at the feeling of the human mounted between his shoulders, unlike how amusing it felt to carry Alyssia.
"Loop the chain over your shoulders," the Icewing instructed. "It should be big enough to still fit loosely if we are both in it."
He tapped the human's arm with a talon and then tugged at the chain.
"It's right here. No- over here. Right h- yeah, there you go."
It took Austin a moment to find the invisible object and Whitestar bit back the irritation in his voice as the human fumbled for the necklace.
"Alright now hold on."

Eclipse laughed quietly.
"Yeah, he is." She glanced down at the human, her smile deepening.
"I don't even want to try and imagine what would have happened to me if I hadn't ended up in his lot."
"It's true."
Sol gave a content sigh.
"We lucked out, Eclipse."

He glanced at her with a fond gaze, but just a quick look. "Where will you go after this? After... We're really free."



(Maybe- just maybe, Eclipse could conceive the idea regarding the rebellion taking over the SD completely, and she could ask Sol to convince Helios? Then they'd have the SolarWing army, after a lot more convincing and stuff. But, up to you.)

(probably, they could come up with it kinda together a little at a time)

"Gee, I don't know," Eclipse said, running a talon down her snout.
"I've never... never really had to say goodbye to anyone. Like this. In-... in a long time."
She fidgetted with her claws, somewhat nervously.
"I guess I'll keep traveling. I have a friend who I would like to meet up with after this, and there is so much I've always wanted to see. But..."
She paused, glancing at Sol again.
"But there are still so many dragons in the Den, I know one of them. I never would have thought twice about trying to do anything about it. But we have. I mean-"
She swept a talon around the transport.
"Here we are. Free. Or, almost anyway. We know it's possible now. If only we had enough dragons to do it."

Sol arched his brow. "You'd go back? To-... save dragons you've never even met?" He looked away slowly, unsure of what exactly Eclipse meant.

Eclipse was silent for a long moment, lost in thought.
"I don't know. Maybe," she said, her gaze drifting to Shard.
"But if there's a way to stop things like what happened to you, or me, or what happened to her-" she nodded toward the sleeping dragonet. "-from happening. Yes. Yes, I would go back. If there was a way to stop it, I would stop it."
She could feel a fire building in her chest, the more her thoughts turned over everything she'd seen and heard. Bloodmoon, never knowing a family and raised to kill and fight for the humans since the day he hatched. Sol, yanked from his family and wiped of any memory of that life. Shard, orphaned and alone in the most brutal city on the continent.
That happened to dragons every day. Had been happening to them before Eclipse ended up there. And it would continue to happen, unless someone did something.
"There has to be a way to stop it."

"Yeah." Sol spoke in a quiet tone. "I agree." He looked into Eclipse's vibrant eyes, a steely determination in his own gaze. "I wonder if... I could ever convince Helios to... well. It obviously couldn't be a suicide mission. We'd need a plan."
