Wings of Fire ~The RP: The Three Continents

“Where is Leif?” Gila asked. The words began to appear. Gila leaned close in anticipation, wings twitching. I cannot answer that question, was the maddening answer. “Three moons,” Gila muttered.
“Makes sense,” Gila nodded. “Raptor, could we use the Obsidian Mirror to drop in on the IceWings?”
"He must have hidden himself." Raptor fumed. "That's the only reasonable answer here." She held up the Mirror, but hesitated. "I don't know any IceWings though."
 
Leif blinked hard, the room slowly coming into focus. He tried to sit up, but a painful tingling shot up through his muscles, and he quickly froze, waiting for the disturbing sensation to pass.
Frost watched him from the doorway, his expression an exhausted glare.
"Goooddd morrrrning." Leif whispered, swallowing painfully.
Frost snorted, stalking into the room. "For you, I think not."
Leif tried to sit up again, his muscles suddenly seizing up painfully.
"Don't move, idiot." Frost snapped.
"Goooddd iddddea."
"Do you know where you are?"
"Nno."
Frost arched his brow, giving the Prince a critical expression.
"I ddo nott knnow," Leif started, his words slurring together, "whyy you th-think drrruggs and poison cann stopp me f-from kl," he swallowed again, "killingg y-"
"Your Animus magic will not work. Just try, Leif." Frost challenged with an amused expression.
It didn't work. Leif tensed, his muscles spasming again. "Wwhat did you do to me?"
Frost sighed, looking bored. "You're in Owl's meeting room. '...So that no Animus magic can affect the room, hiding it's occupants from all magic.'" Frost recited the end of the spell with a shrug.
"Oh. Itt lookks di- dif- different with-thoutt,"
"The table?" Frost guessed with a glare. "Yes. We burnt it to keep the cattle from freezing once the Barns was snowed in. They froze anyway and we lost quite a few dragonets because of it."
Ooh. That was a sacred table. Whoever led that excursion was most definitely cursed. And obviously desperate.
Leif kept his eyes locked on Frost. "Wwhat. Hhhappppened?"
Frost watched Leif with a look of disgust. "To us?" He inquired with a hiss. "To your tribe? You lied to us, Leif. You lead us in blind fury to the SeaWings. You allowed your stupid SandWing allies to destroy the remains of our army. I am what's left!" Frost hissed. "I AM the remaining General. I have two recruits Echo and North." He motioned towards the doorway with his head and two dragons hesitantly peeked in the room, nervously. "That's it, Leif. The rest are dying dragonets and their mothers, desperately trying to find food." Frost closed the space between himself and Leif, leaning down and hissing in the Prince's ear, "A storm unlike any other has ripped through the Kingdom. We've been down in the lowest floors of the palace, trying to wait it out. Winds strong enough to blow any dragon off course. You arrived just as things settled down."
"Hhow manny daysss?"
"Two weeks. The palace stores do not have enough food to support the four hundred hundred dragons we started with." Frost growled, stepping back, towering over Leif much like Leif has done with other dragons in the past.
Leif took a careful, deep breath, exhaling slowly before whispering, "Wwhy did you not kill me?"
Frost straightened, glancing at the door way. "Are you kidding? Fae would disembowel me if I killed her pet."
Leif gave his cousin an amused smile. "Yesss. Yes she wwould."
"But also, you are an Animus,"
"Wwoah, Sher- Sherlock."
"And we are desperate."
Leif arched his brow, painfully swiveling a talon to point to himself, "Yyou want my hhhelp?"
"We are desperate." Frost repeated.
Leif grinned. "Yes. Yes you are."

("You must be truly desperate to come to me for help." Loki quotes jus partying round my brain. I didn't even mean to do it :/)
 
“Wait.” He said suddenly. “Could IceWings use the Obsidian Mirror?? No, probably not. Theyd make a mess. Sorry, got off topic. IceWing names. Uhh… Penguin??”
Aloe poked Gila in the shoulder. "Why would you give that to an IceWing, dunder-head?" She snorted, "Yes. Penguin. They have stupid names like that. Maybe, ah, Frostbite? Blizzard? Walrus?"
