Return

"Ha ha ha, this guy's life is so interesting you should take a look. There's just so much drama that it's too funny."

As a bunch of people look at a set of orbs that show the lives of those in the universe, they look at one in particular its like a train wreck of a life but to these people it's the most entertaining thing to see. These people sit here all day watching the lives of others and call it entertainment. As they watch the show, one particular person has what she thinks is a great idea. "Hay, why don't we send him into the past? Wouldn't the show be even more fun to watch." The others stopped for a moment then called out "Ya this is already so exciting, so why not."

And so they sent the person's mind back into the past. For entertainment, of course.

As the fog lifts from Reeds mind, he finds himself in a vast space. The roof is very high up, but that's not what confused him it's the fact that there is a mural depicting a dragon and its young curled up together in family unity. it's a mural that is only seen in dragon birth halls. As he looks at the mural, an old weathered face moves into his line of sight. The old man looks relieved as he comments "OK youngster you dragon mark has stabilized. You can get up now, but it's a pity." Reed remembers those words as they were said when he got his dragon mark on his 16th birthday. As that hit him, he looked at his right hand, and yes, the mark was right in the middle of his hand, where it always had a been, but it is glowing a slight light green color.

Reed remembers that this is how his mark looked before his dragons will manifested.

That means he has just gotten his dragon will as he leaves the birthing hall he sees his father and, for a second, remembers the regret and memories of his first few years as a Dragon Knight however, with the knowledge he has now, he can make some changes. As he walks to his father, he sees the pity in his father's eyes. Of course, he knows why the dragon mark Reed has is the weakest type, so he won't amount to much. Reeds' father is a General in the Wings of Havoc as well as the leader of the second Wing. The Wings of Havoc are an old and very distinguished Knight order they are also the strongest, and there are 12 Wings in the Knight order. As Reed reaches his father, he asks "Father I'd like 500,000 dragon coins."

His father looks at him strangely as he's about to ask what he will do with the money but stops and thinks for a second before saying "Alright we can consider it my birthday gift to you." As he passes, Reed a storage ring with the money in it he says "The ring is from your mother so keep it."

After a short conversation, Reed and his father leave and go their separate ways. Reed headed for the Guild market he needed a few things before he headed back home. When he got to the market, he stepped up to a market terminal and imputed all the items and ingredients he will need to create an alchemical formula known in the future as the dragon will nourishing agent. By using the agent before the dragons will has manifested the dragons will and mark will become more powerful the nourishing agent can be used once or what Reed is going to do is use it once a day before his dragons will manifests so he can have the best start he can.

After Reed heads home to start making the agent, but as he gets home, he finds his older sister Mana has come back from college to visit him on his birthday she looks at his mark and tells him it dosent matter "You know I have a classmate that has a weak mark but his dragon is extremely powerful so you don't have to worry all that much." Reed remembers this conversation but thinks to himself this time I won't be a waste. After his sister leaves, he heads to his room to put the alchemy station together and make the agent.

As a dedicated alchemist dealing with the setup and start of the alchemical process, it's actually beautiful in its simplicity, well, simple to a practiced hand that is. Reed remembers the formula so readily because he has made it many times before. After 30 minutes, the first bottle is made as he looks at the rainbow hue he is amazed that today, and for the next 3 months, he will be using this agent for his dragon. He can't help but get a little emotional with this his start in this life should be much better than his last, and he is looking forward to it.

As he continues to make more agents, the day fades, and as the sun's set, he has made a little over 14 bottles, and as he just finishes up, the door opens, and a young woman in a maid outfit walks in and says "Young master dinner is ready your mother asks that you clean up before going to the dining room unlike yesterday." As she needles her master with a teasing tone, Reed remembers her Teresa she was raised beside him to be his personal maid, and she got her dragon mark 3 weeks ago it twine around her right arm all the way from her hand to her shoulder and she is considered a genius who will have a strong dragons will.

Reed remembers that Teresa's end was both sad and bloody, and as he looked at his childhood friend, he vows to keep it from happening, though it will be a few years later even so he won't allow it to happen and as the silence lengthens Teresa lifts an eyebrow and says "Oh are you stunned because of my stunning good looks or were you hit with a mallet?"
