(ack, sorry guys, life's been busy! Okay, DR, our final person, asked me to post for him because his internet has been disconnected for some reason... didn't say why... but, yeah!)

Basc, ontop his dragon, Garlorn, smoked his pipe, and stroked his beard as he scanned the Irish landscape for where he was supposed to meet with these people that called him for some reason. How they knew he excisted, a dwarf hidden in the deepest caves of the mountains, was unknown to him, but he came anyway because curiosity got the best of him. The great dragon spotted the fire and many flying beasts first and sped up it's pace. It wasn't long before they landed not far from the group. Basc dismounted and walked over to the group, giving a rudimentary grunt in greetings, having a strange feeling this was where he was supposed to be, and waited for someone to explain what was going on here...
(okay, done quickly... hope you're happy, DR)

Rena bit her lip as more came. There was a hippogriph, and a strange beast she had never seen before, and a dragon or two, just to name a few. She waited and counted to make sure everyone was there. A girl, by the name of Katlyn asked if she was going to explain why they had been called there. With a nervouse glance at the other Chosen who had been her companions before the cerberus attack, she thought it'd be best for her to explain the situations, each seemingly lost in their own thought.
"Um... yeah," she said, and cleared her throat loudly. "Excuse me, um, you were all called here for a very important mission. If you are wondering how we knew about you. We DON'T KNOW, so please don't ask, 'kay? Um, so, to start with, I guess I should tell you what the mission it. Well, see those dragon eggs, over by the fire? They're special somehow, I don't know how, but they are. Well, each of you is going to get a dragon egg that you are going to help protect, and transeport. We are taking them to the Dragon Keeper, somewhere to the North West. We will travel as a group, flying the whole way. This mission is very dangerous. Already we have lost many companions in this endevour through events, and have faced unnumberable dangers. And I'm guessing we're going to be facing many more in the futur. I will tell you which egg is yours in a minute. But first... any questions?" Rena's voice was shaking the whole time, trying to keep her voice loud enough for everyone to hear...

Lissa shook her head no and murmured, "No...no questions from me..." Ryka nudged Lissa. The girl glanced at her ride, You promise to protect whatever egg we get Ryka? The phoenix looked at Lissa with her intelligent eyes, Of course Vasilisa...of course...

Nennia glanced sharply at Kith as Ayvein walked away. Through their mental link, Kith could feel shock eminating from her. What was that? She asked. Kith bore holes in the ground with his eyes, not quite sure what to say. I think that may be the most you've spoken in your entire life, and it had meaning and emotion. I'm so proud[i/]

[i]Don't get used to it. Kith replied sullenly. Don't know what- he broke off his conversation as Nennia was forced to dodge an attack from one of the newcomer's flying creature, the demon that Ayvein had been worried about. She screeched at him, but held herself back from trying to give the beast a swipe across the nose. Instead she inspected another one of the newcomer's ride, a hippogryph. She was curious about the being that was similar to herself.

Kith turned his attention to Rena, who was speaking to the new Chosen. She seemed unsure of herself, but still managed to speak loudly enough to be heard by all.

You're going to be given a dragon egg and you're probably going to die. Perry summarized Rena's speech in a more straight forward manner. Well, he certainly didn't have questions.

Afanen nosed his hair, and he affectionately swatted her away.

Go eat grass or something, he thought at her. And try not to get killed by someone else's mount. He trusted her; she was a smart creature, as they went.

Perry idly wondered which egg he'd be given to take care of. It didn't matter, really. He'd do his best to help it, no matter what, and that was something he didn't often say.

Meridian watched the gathered animals. They were snapping at each other, and acting like, well, animals. His big black eyes raomed over their tense forms, catching a few glances, and baring his lips just enough to show one of his large white teeth. He was big, he was male, and he was not going to put up with any fights that could possibly jeopardize the mission at hand. A low rumble emitted from his throat, as he clenched his long claws in the dirt, creating deep furrows in the dirt.

Firis nudged him with her elbow, and gave him a look to shut him up. He growled low again and closed his eyes, taking a few minute rest. Firis watched Rena as she made her speech, nodding along, trying to send her thoughts of courage. She was young, but she was able to lead this group, much like her mother had done before her. She got to her feet, and leaned against Meridian's warm side, her arms crossed, watching the others.

"Well I have a few.." Dylan suddenly spoke up softly. In the light of the flames his face looked even paler. "Why are we Chosen? And what do we achieve by fullfilling this task?" As he spoke, he looked around the circle, quite amazed that the rest of the 'newcomers', though he didn't know who came new before him, accepted such a mission without even hesitating.

Quebedeaux stretched out around the fire like a large dog, and bumped Meegan with his nose and was rewarded with another unhappy glare. His gold eyes were drawn to Meriadan and he gave a snort of amusement hoping that the other dragon was not intent on reigning in the rest or there would be trouble for sure.

Meegan felt that strange tingling again in her mind. Something was invading it..well, not invading sharing, maybe? And despite the uncomfortable sensation in the beginning it was not unpleasant, and it made her smile. She looked over to share this with Queb, but found that he too was smirking.

"Out of my head, Quebedeaux," she warned with a small hiss.

"Forgive me, friend. I am unable to help such things. Dragon magic,"he explained, his grin growing wider. "Now, pay attention. You will miss something important."

Meegan rolled her eyes and turned to face Rena again. Her arms were crossed over her chest and her head tilted to the side.

Fantastic, she thought. Guarding eggs, that is just fantastic. She gazed at the earth, wondering why she came here and most importantly, what she was going to do next. Eugenia, on the other hand, tilted its head up, hearing the news of dragon eggs. Guessing that it was getting jealous, Katyln flashed it a dark look. It calmed almost immediately. She asked, "What happens when we reach this Dragon Keeper? Do we get anything in return for our troubles or what?"

Firis stepped forwards, cutting off Raina as she answered Katlyn's question. "You will be given a reward, for taking the eggs to the Keeper. Do not think that we could ask you to embark on such a dangerous journey without some kind of reward. There are many who would not do this deed out of the goodness of their hearts, but only for the promise of riches and glory." She glanced briefly at a few of the Chosen then looked at her sword, stepping back against Meridian.

Meridian eye's flashed open, watching Dyvain, lifting his head and nodding it slightly. He looked back at Firis and nudged her as she moved towards him.

Rena was about to speak when Firis stepped forward and cut her off, answering one of the questions. Now she remembered how Crymson had offered reward in riches at the task's end. Bitting her lip, she nodded thanks to the Element-weilder and answered the other questions.

"This quest, that I know of, will help save the race of dragons. I'm sure everyone knows that slowly dragons are dieing off, sadly. And these eggs are the key to saving them, I think. What exactly happens when we reach the Dragon Keeper, I have no clue," Rena said, "why you were chosen, or how we knew about you... or how Crymson, the one who started the quest, knew about you. I don't know. Magic maybe?"

"So" said Dylan smoothly "let me see if I understand this correctly.. We are going on a quest and risk our lifes without any knowledge of what will happen when we fullfill this quest or why we are even doing this?"
His chestnut hair hang like curtains around his face but his dark glittering eyes were clearly visible as he stared at Rena.
"Please tell me this is a joke" he sneered supercilious.
