Kalmar recoiled as the water below him exploded and a strange RainWing, who's scales quickly morphed into a SeaWing blue green, immerged, looking half drowned. "What arr 'ou?.. Doin'?" Kalmar hissed, crouching low to the ground. The RainWing gestured to herself, shaking her head, wheezing. Kalmar noticed her bioluminescent scales. Good. Probably not an enemy. Probably. "Uh," the RainWing gasped, repositioning herself. Kalmar growled, "Look. Oi'm the one en charrrge 'rrround 'erre. Oi demand 'ou tell me 'ou ye arr this enstant." The RainWing nodded, leaping up on the rocky jetties the huge MudWing hybrid was standing on. "I am Reva of the, uh, NightWings. And the RainWings." She gave him a brilliantly boring look, "Sister to both Queens. I was sent here to ask a request." Kalmar watched her skepticaly. "Very well, go on." "Queen Blackflower asks if the Queen would be willing..." She hesitated, probably noticing how hard Kalmar had flinched. "Queen's dead. Oi sayd oi wus en charge 'round 'ere. Continue." The RainWing gave him a stunned expression. "Dead? But... We warned you..." "Wot?" Kalmar hissed. "At the Deep Palace? The Animus killed her?" "How'd 'ou know 'bout dat?" Kalmar roared. "I was one of the dragons that warned you of his coming!" She spat back. Kalmar hesitated. "'Ou were... You saved us a lot of dragons." He said queitly. "But not the Queen." The RainWing growled softly, glancing behind her as if looking for something. "Wot did the NightWing Queen want?" Kalmar asked, back on topic. "One of our dragons had a vision. A prophecy. Queen Blackflower requests you send us a trio of SeaWings willing to travel. We believe there is a third continent."The thick, slimy seaweed drifted around Reva as she followed Walrus. They came to a large opening. Everything was quickly coming back to her and she recognized the entrance. Reva dove down into the rocky hole, swimming for a moment and the resurfacing gratefully, gasping for air like a hippopotamus in labor.
(Alright @Duckpip, get over here.)
