One beautiful spring morning, when everything was in bloom, I went to Forsival, the village of Paul and Mary. I shouted" Mary, Paul" and I turned around the village without entering it and I shouted to the guard to call Paul. I was standing out of reach of the arrows. I was careful.

The alarm sounded in the form of a horn and then it went silent. And Paul arrived on a pissed off horse!

"Vermithraxa! What are you doing here? It's dangerous! It's dangerous!"

"Sorry, it's Dad, he's dying! He's only got a few more hours left. I can take Marie on my back so she has a chance to say goodbye. Hurry up. Hurry up. I couldn't carry you unfortunately, I'm still too small. I'm still a dragonette. I still have my down."

"Come on, Marie"

Soldiers arrived as reinforcements and saw Paul hugging me and Mary climbing on top of me.

"But she's crazy," they screamed!

Paul : "It's okay, they're part of the family. They were raised by my uncle. These are our aunts wyrmes."

I flew with all my strength and in a few tens of minutes, we arrived at the old forge.

Our eyes watering with sadness.

I landed and arrived in the room but John was outside in the sun.

Although blind John insisted on feeling the sun's rays on his skin one last time, to feel its warmth.

I was above him and Mary leaned over his head.

"Mary, is Paul here?" he asked.

"He arrives on horseback", I said.

"ahhh, the sun, what am I missing..."

One of my tears fell on his eyes and something happened.

"Ohh??? Ohhhhhh? HOOOOO????? Vermithraxa, you are so beautiful! I see!

I am healed of eyes, I can see you and you are Mary! ohh, my child as you are radiant and you Auberone oh you are beautiful. What beautiful red colors you have.

Do you know that red is the color of life? All these flowers.

Help me up, I'd like to see my repaired forge and your inventions again.

Oh, the mythrile, you know how it is then."

Me: "Yes, it's duralumin with nanometric bronze in it.

Lightweight and 400 times stronger than steel. But you need lightning to make it and..

Oh Nooonn. Papaa! Paapaaa, wake up.!"

Paul had arrived in the meantime and we were all holding his hand. He died smiling and seeing us.

Mary threw herself against me and hugged me, Paul and Auberone too.

We walked in silence and put wood, cut a strand of hair and locked it in a stone jewel box and Auberone and I opened our wings and took off.

Then as we fly over the body lying on the wooden shroud we spit out our most beautiful flames to light the pyre.

We watched the fire merge with the night, all 4 of us sitting against each other.

We all cried in silence.

The next day, we woke up, tidied up the house and packed our bag with almost nothing in it, some scarves and our diary. And we closed the shutters, the door. I cast a lock spell and said our goodbyes to Mary and Paul.

Then after a last meal together we flew away after a last tour of the garden and took some seeds of the best vegetables.

We flew to the city where the academy was, but to get to the academy, we had to cross the city and face the balistes...

What to do about it?

Well, we just went to the entrance of the guard house!

We sat in front of the entrance and shouted

"Zanzar, we want to see Zanzar!"

The guard sounded the alarm when they saw us and we backed away from the arrows.

we waved from afar and a cavalry charge came at us.

"Zanzar, please, we're students of the academy."

The captain was surprised to see a Wyverne speaking, no, 2 wyvernes

"We are family members of Paul de Forsival.

Please, my lord the knight. We come to the academy to see Zanzar, our master.

We are Vermithraxa and Auberone!"

"Ah, it wasn't a joke then. "said the captain, sheathing his sword again.

"We're sorry we had the alert triggered, but we didn't want to break the law and cross town like monsters."

He waved his men's hands to lower their weapons

"Well, you go straight to the entrance of the academy, I'll tell my archers not to shoot you. I suppose you'll have to feed and hunt, but beware, no cattle otherwise you'll be hunted mercilessly."

"Yes, Lord," and we crawled at his feet to thank him.

Eldric: "I am a dragon hunter and this is the first time I have seen dragons speak so well and in a civilized way. I hope for your sake you don't have human blood on your hands. But I'd like to take a closer look at you. Yes, you don't smell like a reptile. You don't smell the blood or the breath typical of wyverns. Foul. You smell the spices and human nutrition. Welcome to Academia, the university campus."

Zanzar: CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP CLAP." Welcome to Academia my children.

You were brave and the captain will report back to the king in the right direction. To deserve our protection," Zanzar prayed.

We flew away and burns showed us where to settle and it was beautiful.
