Chapter 340 - Dragons [#7]

Laughing maniacally, Dagur held the purple egg above his head as lightning struck on the background- It stopped as a deep voice said in the background: "Leather armor is the best armor for stealth, because it is literally made out of hide." Dagur's megalomaniac moment was cut short as the villain doom song playing in the background scratched and was cut, his beloved husband holding a piece of parchment as he wrote down jokes, puns, dad jokes. "I feel it flowing through my veins, babe. It's the power of a father!" Dagur paused for a moment before he listened to Alrik say another pun: "Astronomers got tired of seeing the moon go around the earth for 24 hours, so they decided to call it a day."

...The moon goes around the earth?

"Anyway, wanna meditate?" Ah, meditation! That's something Dagur picked up on his journey and that his love also practices! He told him that magic comes from within, and if he does train in his meditation, he could learn how to use it too! They sat down together, Alrik placing the parchment on the table before closing his eyes and getting into position. None said anything before they fell into this peaceful state, zen, the energy of the world filling their lungs as they breathed in and out...

Smiling softly, Alrik opened his eyes to see his beloved just sitting there with this serene expression on his face. The skill [Meditation] cleared the mind and made so no thoughts interrupt your zen state, making you calm!

[Meditation Lvl 1:

Description: Upon activation, you enter a meditative state where your mind is cleared of all perturbation and distraction, calming your emotions and increasing your MP and SP recovery by 10%]

See? It made resting easier! It also made so Dagur can calm himself down when he goes in one of his fits, Alrik normally had to fight him and then he'd end up being either fucked or fucking the guy, which was always a plus. 'And like this, focused, he can feel it.' Indeed, in a state of complete focus, Dagur would be able to feel the world around him thanks to the that Alrik gave him. Was it a mistake to give magic to a mad man? Possibly. Did he care? Definitely not. 'Let's see-' At Level 1, the skill granted the [Island] portion of the magic, so any change in the island he could feel! Alrik had to bond to the island itself so he could change it, and now all he had to do was guide his beloved so he can also bond to the island, which will make the island itself magical.

He first took over control of the wind, his concentration never broke as he never broke out of his meditative state, using his energy to guide the air around him ina circular pattern around them before speaking: "Feel the wind, Dagur... Where does it guide you?" His consciousness followed the wind with strong precision, wind which Alrik guided down till it touched the earth, his voice still reaching Dagur's ears as only their minds had left their bodies, having connected to the island itself. It was like they were the island. They could feel the entire island, feel the air, the earth, the waves touching the shores, and they could feel each other on the island. "Come, let us bond with the island." Dagur couldn't speak. He could only feel this deep, deep emotion deep within his very soul... He was calm.

For the first time ever, he was calm.

'Strange.' He didn't like it. His crazy mind was better than this. This was way too confining, jailing. 'I don't like it.' He definitely didn't like feeling calm. His mind was always full of thoughts and noises. This was too silent for him.

He followed his beloved deep within the island's soil. His mind peered through the veil his mind put to trick his brain, and he saw what surprised him - everything. The entire island was on his mind, and he could tell with just a thought how old the island was, where it was, how to get here, and what he could do to it... No, what they could do to it. "This..." His voice sounded echoing, afar, unlike Alrik's voice that sounded like a whisper to his mind. "...bond with the island?" He instinctively knew what to do, so when he reached out to bond with the island, he felt another foreign energy that he quickly identified as Alrik's essence.

His essence was the magical representation of his being, his soul. He felt... Warm like a hug, big like a yak, fuzzy like the lightning from the Skrill egg, hard like Dragon Proof Iron, destructive like an earthquake mixed with a tsunami, mixed with a thunderstorm and a volcanic eruption! But so safe, safe like home. 'He is even more crazy than me.' Hidden beneath all that was a core of bright pale white light of pure protective love, in the middle of this sphere, there was a small red dot of monstrous hatred, bloodlust, murder, desire to destroy everything.

They were made for each other.

"In all of Midgard, I've found my match." A snapping sound echoed inside his mind as a bond was created between him and the island, but also between him and Alrik.

Opening their eyes at the same time, they both looked into each other's eyes - understanding was all they could feel at that moment.

Needless to say, the fucked.

-Scene Cut-

"Brother!" Spreading his arms wide, Dagur grinned brightly at the man many would know as Hiccup Haddock the 3rd, son of Stoick and future chief of Berk. "Ah. Dagur... What are you doing here?" Last time they saw each other, Dagur had tried to kill him - again - and had been left behind by Heather, his sister, and now he's on a deserted island? "Ah, right! I'm here to get some things... You know how it is, right?" Sadly for Hiccup, his beloved dragon was hurt by a Dragon Root arrow, which was enough to bring him down and unable to fly or run away. And even worse, the island is getting raided by many, many dragon hunters. "This is one of the only islands that grow Bitterweed, Dragon Root, and Fire Fern in a single location! Do you know how useful those things are? They're like, very valuable!" Chuckling a little, Dagur looked over Hiccup to see said downed Night Fury behind him in a cave.

"So... Need any help?"

He did need help. He was alone in a deserted island with dragon hunters all coming after him, Toothless was downed and poisoned by the Dragon Root arrows, incapacitated and unable to fly. "You know there's an antidote for that, right? Bitterweed, Fresh Water, Fire Fern, and Purple Oleander all mixed into one purple liquid heaven that heals and cures the poison! I've seen Ryker make it..." Hiccup of course looked at him suspiciously, why wouldn't he? It's Dagur!

But he went alongside it.

Later, as he flew away, he saw a large shadow in the water vanish. Dagur was long gone...

Beneath the waves, a large serpentine Leviathan dragon swam, his transparent throat revealed the ocean around the duo as Alrik greeted his beloved with a sweet kiss: "Did you find what you were looking for?" Dagur had unexpectedly asked him to bring him to this island. He wanted to make antidotes for the Dragon Root poison that one of the dragons on their Sanctuary had been affected by, and right now seeing the ingredients he had on his hand (Of course he wasn't holding the Fire Fern, he is crazy, unhinged enough to not be on the doorframe anymore, but he isn't stupid!) Alrik could only nod and kiss him. "Let's go back home, Jörm." Ah, right! Alrik managed to find what he was looking for and an extra dragon!

He found a Submaripper, he named Charybdis, and a Fathomfin dragon that looks like a giant whale. The only difference is that the Fathomfin he found was a Leviathan, which was even larger than the normal specimen! She was big enough to eat a Submaripper whole. A Fathomfin can expand their gullet like pelican, and when they do so, it becomes translucent enough to be see-through, something Alrik was taking full advantage of! They are very docile dragons, keeping to themselves most of the time and not seeking out fights, but they are also fierce protectors of their young. Like whales, they also form a pod, but most of the time, their pod contains only five to six individuals. Most of them are the children of the single adult Fathomfin that can be either female or male, which is weird... That was when Alrik learned that these dragons? The males can also carry eggs!

Like seahorses, the males of this dragon species can carry the eggs layed by the females, at which point the females leave, and the male takes care of the pod. But it also seems that sometimes, that responsibility falls on the female's back, which is inconsistent. They must make this decision somehow, and Alrik has yet to find out how!

But regardless, they found a pod of 5 dragons. A mother and four babies, all which Alrik took to theie Paradise so they could grow safely within their waters, waters controlled by both him and his beloved.

After all, they have a Skrill to take care of, alongside a grumpy Crimson Goregutter that will be sad that his dad didn't take him for a ride.
