This choice: To nearby spring. I need to heal my wounds. • Go Back...
Chapter #4
Mystical and Magical Springs
by: Unknown
"Now we will first go to the nearby springs. I need to heal my wounds," Zartax said as he rolled his eyes at Eric.
"Where are these springs? Eric asked.
Zartax sighed before answering. "Just follow me. Make sure you don't trip over your tail."
Eric snorted at Zartax's comment. Tripping over his tail wasn't something that Eric wanted to do again. Zartax would just laugh at him again if he did. Eric follows Zartax to the springs.
As they were walking Eric noticed that it was getting easier to walk around in his new body. After a few minutes of walking Zartax and Eric arrived at the springs.
"Here we are Erikzon," Zartax said.
Eric stood in awe of the springs. Never before had he seen such beautiful springs by a mountain. The size of the springs were enormous. As Eric took in the beauty of the springs Zartax entered the waters. In an instant Zartax's wounds were healed.
"What kind of magic is this?" Eric asked.
"You never heard of magical springs? What kind of dragon has no knowledge of magical springs?" A blue dragoness asked.
"He's new to the area. Where he comes from magical springs have ceased to exist," Zartax said.
"Right," the dragoness said. The dragoness sniffs the air and grins. "Thought I smelt something human. You're a human who has been turned into a dragon. Not just any human. You're Sir Eric of Moonvale. Serves you right for hunting our kind down like animals.
"How did you know?" Eric asked. Eric felt uneasy around the blue dragoness. Without realising it Eric had caused the magical springs to start bubbling.
"Cool it pal. Magical springs are rare to come by," the dragoness said.
Eric tries to calm himself down. After a few minutes the springs stop bubbling.
"We're going to have to teach you how to control your powers. However, the water is now nice and hot. It's actually quite relaxing," Zartax said.
Eric and the dragoness look at each other before heading into the springs.
"You're right. This feels marvelous," the dragoness said.
"You can say that again. The name's Zartax. It it looks like you've heard about Eric or I should say Erikzon."
"I am Mavalor. I'm a Stormbringer. I can control the seas and create storms. So you're the dragon that turned this fool into one of us. Got to give you praise for that. A life in our feet should teach this ignoramus humility," the dragoness said.
"Exactly what I was thinking. Hey Mavalor, I just got an idea. Would you mind teaching Erikzon about how we dragons live? I can only teach him so much, but the finer things may require assistance," Zartax said.
Eric gulped as the two dragons grinned. Are they planning on having him do what they think they are plotting.
