There's a rain coming

As the rain first started falling around the old shaman and the village chieftain they began arguing vehemently.. "I don't do speeches!!" Uru Elna screamed in Zul Sha's face.. "So you're going to slight the first champion that has been graced by both dragon gods in all of history? That's pretty bold even for you.." Zul Sha replied with a wicked grin on his old face.. "I could just hit you over the head with a stone and make it look like you fell, go back to bathing for another day or two and 'Grieviously' drag your corpse back that I 'Discovered' on my way home.. you must have tripped in the rain." Uru Elna replied while looking about for a rock..

"If you so much as even think of that again I will cause the very earth below you to swallow you whole! how's that for a mud bath.." Zul Sha replied knowing the Uru Elna wouldn't really assault him. "Haaa... can you at least help me figure out what to say? your his favorite clutch mates teacher right? you should know something about him.." Uru Elna submitted to her defeat and hung her head low. Zul Sha's wicked grin turned into a kind smile as he nodded his head. "Of course child, help me catch a few fish and we can discuss your speech."

The two Draconian made their way to the river, Zul Sha cast his magic to cause the water to freeze to solid ice and Uru Elna took out a beautiful sword styled like a French Rapier but the blade was strange. It was almost as wide as a hand at the base and came to a narrow point as broad as a blade of grass. But boy was it sharp! With minimal effort Uru slid the sword into the ice and cut cubes out around the fish. Seeing her work was done Zul Sha allowed the bottom of the river to melt slightly and the iced fish lifted, allowing the village chieftain to pull them ashore. As they worked Zul Sha and Uru Elna began discussing her speech.

...

"Sha Na! was that you?" Lilan Ka busted into Sha Na's hut with Nil Kul just behind him. "Turn it off! the village is going to flood at this rate!" Nil Kul said as she entered. "I don't know how!! it was the first time I cast that spell! I didn't even think it would work.." Sha Na slumped her head thinking of the lack of food for Intalru's arrival. "Did you try cutting the Mana supply?" Lilan Ka asked this time the fire of curiosity was alit in his eyes. "I'm not even supplying it so how can I cut it!!" Sha Na was beginning to get hysterical "... Yes you are I can sense the Mana rolling off of you." Lilan Ka replied while staring at her strangely before opening his mouth again. "How did you get so much Mana out of nowhere! it's hard to even breath around you.." Nil Kul looked at her brother strangely. "I can breath just fine?" "That's because you use Ki your body doesn't even recognise Mana trust me she is smothering the hut with it.." Lilan Ka replied before looking at Sha Na again. "I got a title.. it has to be that! Unequip title!" Ding! title cannot be unequipped at this time.. "F*ck! it won't let me remove it!" Sha Na said as she clutched her head.. "Really?! that's strange maybe I can go ask my.." "No! I don't want anyone knowing it's me!" Sha Na cut off her brother before he could finish his sentence.. "I hate to break it to you but anyone with Mana sense could see that it's coming from this hut.. hey when did you paint that on your forehead?" Lilan Ka said as he stared at the spot just above Sha Na's eyes..

"I didn't.. oh the kiss! D@mn!t what does it look like?" "Kiss?.. whatever anyways you have a.. Band? with a bright blue water drop painted on your head.. it's kinda pretty actually." Nil Kul said while looking at Sha Na's head. "What? hold up.." Sha Na waved her hand and water flew inside the hut floating before her she used it like a mirror. "Oh.. it is pretty.. wait! is this permanent‽" Sha Na began rubbing the spot where her 'Tiara' was and it didn't go away.. She then turned back to Lilan Ka with a dejected look "Please get your teacher.." Lilan Ka ran off to get his teacher and shortly after he was pulling the old lizard inside the hut. "Hmmm I would have to say you contracted with a 'Grand spirit' tell me child what happened before you cast the spell?" Sidia Ari asked while rubbing his scaly chin. Sha Na explained everything to the old wizard lizard even telling him her title name.. "But please don't tell Zul Sha! I don't want to be like Intalru.." .."umm child you know Zul Sha is my brother right? as in actual brother same parents and all.. I don't feel comfortable with keeping a secret about his apprentice from him.. but.. I won't tell him if he doesn't ask me, is that fair?" "Thank you so much! you are so much kinder than your brother I didn't even know you were related!" "Why does everyone say that? we look almost identical.. but thank you, now as far as your problem I do have a solution.. but you probably won't like it."

"Wow! that storm came out of nowhere!" Velma exclaimed causing Amanda to poke her head out of the back of the wagon. "Looks like someone called it, I can feel the Mana waves from here.." The Myconid said while staring intently at the roiling black clouds. "You think it's someone testing us? or maybe it's the village Prodigy trying to impede our journey!" The young Myconid said with a fire lighting in her eyes... Thump! Velma chopped Amanda on her mushroom cap with her hand. "Bad Chuuni! they're probably in the middle of a drought or something, haven't you ever heard of a coincidence?" Amanda stared at Velma before retorting "Then they should be casting multiple smaller storms instead of one massive one.. I still say someone did this to affect our journey!"

Intalru was sitting idly listening to his companions argue while staring at the storm. "Feels like Sha Na's spectre.." He said causing the girls to study the storm again. "Oh Maybe she's trying to slow us down so they can prepare a welcome party then?" Amanda said hopefully. "Well that makes more sense than some kind of hidden enemy inside the village.." Velma relented to Amanda's guess this time before climbing in the back with her. "What are you doing?!" Amanda jumped away from the Daphnaie while keeping her parasol between them. "... I was going to let you ride up front since the clouds were covering the sun.." Velma replied while looking at the Myconid strangely. "Oh.. he he.. thanks!" Amanda jumped into the passenger seat as the clouds slowly expanded across the horizon filtering the suns' light to the point that the Myconid was comfortable. She lifted her umbrella up to shield them in case it rained but the winds began picking up almost causing her to lose her grip.

"Just leave that in the back I'll deal with the rain." Intalru said just before the sky let loose. Amanda felt Intalru release his Mana into the air and watched in amazement as the raindrops stopped just above their head, slowly they began to form a bubble around the entire wagon even keeping the Auroch dry. Sadly though they had to stop anyways, the rain was so torrential that the ground was turning to mud causing the poor beasts to over exert themselves.. "Looks like we're stuck until the rain stops and the sun comes out.. now what?" Amanda said while looking a little glum. "Well.. hold up for a second." Intalru said while gazing at the muddy ground.

Suddenly he began pouring out Mana like crazy, the earth around them shifted and moved until a large amount of rocks were lifted to the top of the soil, before Amanda could say anything the stones began melding together into two large flat squares before Intalru willed a branch to grow from the wagon.. The branch reached out and touched the soil before suddenly breaking away from the wagon and growing into two trees the shape of a house, with the stone 'floors' inside of them. "Velma help me get the Auroch inside!" Intalru hopped off the wagon and unbridled the Auroch. Velma jumped out of the back of the wagon and willed a large opening in the side of the 'Tree house' that was closest to them. The Auroch seemed to understand what was going on and quickly made their way inside, Intalru willed the plant he used to make their reigns to produce more 'Feed' and tossed it in with them. "MoOoOoOoOo!" ... "You're welcome?" Intalru replied before causing the wall to close back up leaving a few gaps too small for the beasts to escape but large enough to let in plenty of fresh air and some light.

As Intalru took care of the Auroch the girls already made their way inside the other hut. Intalru hopped back inside the wagon and grabbed his 'Essentials' before running into the hut with the girls. "Soo now what?" Velma asked while sliding next to Intalru with a flirtatious smile on her face. "I should have made more huts.."
