Leo and Ariana stayed at the resistance group's camp for a week, preparing for the attack on the fortress. They trained with the resistance group, learning their tactics and strategies. They also bonded with them, learning their stories and cultures.
They trained hard every day, from dawn till dusk. They practiced their moves and skills, they sparred with each other and their mentors, they tested their limits and strengths. They improved their performance and confidence, they honed their abilities and potential, they increased their power and speed.
They also bonded with the resistance group, learning their stories and cultures. They talked with them during meals and breaks, they listened to them during nights and fires, they shared with them during joys and sorrows.
They learned that the resistance group was composed of dragonkin from different clans and tribes, who had joined forces against the mage. They learned that each clan had its own history and tradition, its own color and symbol, its own leader and role.
They learned that Rax was the leader of the Red Clan, the largest and oldest clan of dragonkin. He was a warrior and a king, who had fought many battles and ruled many lands. He was respected and feared by all dragonkin, who called him the Red Dragon.
They learned that Ryn was the leader of the Green Clan, the smallest and youngest clan of dragonkin. He was a scout and a spy, who had explored many places and learned many secrets. He was liked and trusted by all dragonkin, who called him the Green Eye.
They learned that there were other clans too, such as the Blue Clan of scholars and mages, the Yellow Clan of healers and artisans, the White Clan of priests and prophets.
They learned that each clan had its own strengths and weaknesses, its own allies and enemies, its own hopes and dreams.
They learned that they all had one thing in common: they all hated the mage.
They learned that the mage had been their enemy for centuries, ever since he had stolen the Dragon's Eye from them. They learned that he had used it to enslave their brethren, turning them into his mindless minions. They learned that he had used them to wage war on humans, destroying their villages and towns.
They learned that they had tried to stop him many times before, but they had always failed. They learned that he had killed many of their friends and family members, leaving them orphaned or widowed. They learned that he had taken away their freedom and dignity, leaving them oppressed or exiled.
They learned that they had never given up hope or courage though. They learned that they had always fought back or resisted. They learned that they had always waited for a chance or a sign.
They learned that they had found it in Leo's Starblade.
They learned that it was the only weapon that could destroy the Dragon's Eye.
They learned that it was the only hope that could save them all.
They became friends with the resistance group, earning their respect and gratitude. They laughed with them during jokes and games, they cried with them during losses and pains, they cheered with them during victories and celebrations.
They became part of the resistance group, joining their cause and mission. They pledged with them during oaths and vows, they planned with them during meetings
and discussions.
