By the next day Lily was feeling much better despite still having no memories. She got up early seeing Ezra work on breakfast. She volunteers to help him and it turned out she had a real knack for cooking. She helps Tarrow load up the supplies and carry out chores with out any complaint. Soon enough they are all on horses or in the cart as they search for their next dragon. Lily feels a little scared at the though of seeing a dragon but the group she was with seemed more than capable of dealing with one.
There search for the day turns up fruitless finding no dragons or any really destructive creatures. "I was really hoping we would find something", Torin whines. "I'm so bored." Lily looks at the man with apprehension. Shouldn't he be a bit thankful they hadn't had to put themselves in danger instead of bothered by the lack of combat.
Tarrow sets up camp while Torin and Ezra cook dinner for the now, group of five. Lara takes Lily with her to a nearby stream where they wash up and Lily is given a change of clothes by the sorceress. It was a pair of fitted tan pants with a flowing red shirt.
As she is changing she notices a large symbol inked onto her side. It looks like three triangles and in the center of the triangles a circle with a line through it. She throws the clothes on not knowing what to think of the symobol. The clothes fit her well considering her and Lara are nearly the same size.
"These will be a lot more comfortable to move around in than that torn dress", she tells Lily who thanks her for the clothes. "That symbol on your side, thats an old druid symbol. It makes me curious to see if you are one. Druids are usually travelers used to hard labor so it would be shocking if you are given how uncalloused your hands and feet are".
"What is a druid and how exactly would we find that out", Lily asks her curiously as she follows her to a clearing that is further away from the rest of the group and the cart.
"The easiest way would to just test your reactions", Lara says simply before sending a blast of magic right next to her feet leaving the grass singed. Lily jumps back in fear staring at the sorceress as if she's lost her mind. "Stop me Lily or I'll singe that pretty hair right off your head", Lara warns sending another powerful blast just barely missing her head by an inch. She takes another step back but the ground is unlevel and she falls on her backside. She looks at Lara whose face is void of any emotion. She raises a hand sending another strike right at Lily who raises her hands to protect her self and a wall of dirt spring up in front of her protecting her from Lara's attack. "Well done Lily, looks like your a druid", Lara says walking over admiring the wall of dirt before offering a hand to help her up. Lily looks at her hands in complete shock, she never would have guessed she could do that.
"Lara what the hell", Ezra shouts having seen his sister attack Lily out of nowhere. Lily appeared to be ok but the beasts had barely missed her.
"We were just doing an experiment", Lara replies waving off her frantic brother.
"What if she hadn't been able to conjure up that wall, you would have hit her", Ezra points out. Lara rolls her eyes at her brother dramatics, if she had wanted to hurt her the girl would have been hurt.
"That last spell was just an immobilizer she was never in any danger. Get your panties out of a twist ", Lara says looking bored and then walking away to the camp. Ezra looks conflicted at who to apoligize too, his sister or Lily.
"Sorry if she scared you, she's always been a bit intense with her way of doing things. Are you okay", he says looking her over noticing she was in Laras old clothes.
Lily nods in response. The attack had scared her but it did accomplish what it was meant to so no harm done. "I'm fine just a bit shocked at what I did, I never would have thought I could do something like that", she answers looking down at her hands again in wonder at what else she could do.
"I have some old druid books in the cart, I was studying their different type of magic before. We can look through them together and I'll help you practice", he offers and Lily smiles brightly glad to take him up on his proposal.
They walk back to the group slowly were Torin is telling them how he managed to tame a griffin. It was a wild tale for sure but entertaining none the less. "So I looked it right in the eyes and I told it. Either you will let me ride you or we will both die. I ran and knocked us both off the cliff and I tell you the griffin looked me in the eyes with respect. And ever since then everytime I whistle the beast comes to me in the next second", Torin finishes. Lily and Tarrow listen intently while Ezra rolls his eyes and Lara smirks at Torin.
"Or maybe the beast just comes running because your a wood elf and part of your kinds abilities is to compell animals to do your bidding", Lara says breaking the illusion for Tarrow and Lily as Ezra laughs at his siblings statement. Torin glares at the red headed sorceress pretending to be annoyed but it was common knowledge to the original four that Torin had strong feelings for Lara.
The four original group members got ready to lay in their sleeping sack when he looked over realizing Lily didn't have one. Being the gentleman he is he gives Lily his own and goes and gets a mat they had in the cart and an extra blanket laying it beside Lily who is staring at the twinkling stars above.
"What are you thinking about", Ezra asks looking at the stars as well. Lily shifts a little bit before responding.
"Everything feels so oddly natural. Like this is how my life is meant to be, but another part of me seems scared that its all going to disappear and change".
