Elysia: leans in close You WON'T believe this! I've found an ancient ritual! Want to HELP me unveil it?
moves into the wheelchair
panting heavily, pushing the wheelchair with all her might Come on, come on, come on! We have to get out of here before it's too late!
frantically looking around Just hold on, Vulcalculous! We're almost there!
e-elysia.... w-wheres the... dragon?
pauses, a hint of sadness in her eyes The dragon... it's gone, Vulcalculous. It sacrificed itself to save us, to protect its chosen one.
sadness fills my eyes we... didn't get dragon tears then?
As Elysia and Vulcalculous reach the edge of the forest, they find themselves surrounded by a group of ruthless hunters, armed with weapons and ready to attack.
e-elysia... i... think.... were.... not.... going.... to..... survive.... this...
narrows her eyes, assessing their surroundings Don't you dare give up on me now, Vulcalculous! We've survived worse than a bunch of pathetic hunters!
sits still and closes my eyes
takes a deep breath, determined Alright, Vulcalculous, listen to me. We're not going down without a fight!
opens my eyes and grabs the pendant around my neck
smirks mischievously Alright, Vulcalculous, show these hunters what we're made of! charges forward, swinging a nearby stick at the closest hunter
as elysia fights them off, they break the seal on my dragon form
dodges a blow from a hunter and throws her stick Take that! And stay down! grabs Vulcalculous' hand, pulling him to his feet
i grow into dragon form and blow fire on the hunters
grinning triumphantly That's it, Vulcalculous! Unleash your inner dragon and show them who's boss! Burn them to the ground!
my wings sprout from my back
claps her hands together Excellent, Vulcalculous! Now, spread those magnificent wings and fly us to safety! Show these fools what true power looks like!
i pick elysia up with one hand and fly away with her
laughs triumphantly Fly higher, Vulcalculous, faster! Leave those pathetic hunters behind and carry us to safety!
slams her fist against Vulcalculous' chest Well done, Vulcalculous! You saved us! Now, let's get you some rest and recovery.
rushes to Vulcalculous' side, her eyes filled with concern Are you alright, Vulcalculous? Can you stand?
m-mhm.... im... alright....
places a hand on Vulcalculous' shoulder, supporting him Good, good. Let's get you back to your home and make sure you're taken care of.
...T-Thank you, Elysia...
grinning mischievously No need to thank me, Vulcalculous! I'm just glad I could help. Now, let's get you settled.
looks around the house, assessing its condition Hmm, seems like it's seen better days. We'll need to fortify this place, Vulcalculous.
w-well.... t-the cave.... is.... more safe....
crosses her arms, a mischievous glint in her eyes A cave, you say? Well, Vulcalculous, it seems like we have some work to do.
i lead you to a hidden cave behind the village
raises an eyebrow A hidden cave, huh? Sounds like the perfect place for our little sanctuary. looks around, assessing the space
the cave is lit up by glowing crystals
grinning mischievously Ah, glowing crystals, how delightful! This cave has potential, Vulcalculous. With a bit of magic and elbow grease, we can turn it into our own personal haven.
