T´chal and the group teleport to the capital city of Nafud: Vanarach. It is a big city next to the jungles and is located in between an oasis in the desert and the jungles. It takes advantage of the fruitful land next to the jungles, availability of water and protection in form of mountains surrounding it. It can be described as a hidden paradise protected by nature itself. The city itself is covered with lots of plants keeping the aesthetic and used to cultivate fruit in the city. T´chal and the group go through the massive city the smell of spices and chatter of men fills the air. As they walk they notice that there are almost no humans there and Hi catches a lot of looks by the native beastmen and halfbeastmen. "Don´t mind them! They´re just wary of human presence they bear no ill will towards you. It´s just that history thaught them to be extra careful!" T´chal explains to Hi. "So the holy kingdom of Light and Nafud really weren´t the best of friends. That´s unfortunate but recent changes have led to us having more to worry about than our meaningless squabbles." Hi answers. "I didn´t expect that to come out of your mind for somenone that young!" T´chal says. "Anyway we´re there!" he says leading them into a tavern. From the outside it looks different from the other buildings it is made from sandstone and wood from the holy kingdom of light with a magical sign that says tavern. They enter through the door into the dimly lit cool room. All eyes are on Hi and Sozin. "What´s up?! Never seen humans? They´re with me so don´t get any funny ideas!" T´chal tells everyone. "If that´s so we don´t need to worry!" One of them says going back to drinking. They go up to the counter to order drinks. "Hey, barkeep i got some new friends from out of town! Pour us something good!" T´chal says. "If it isn´t the legendary bounty hunter himself. You´re back fresh from duty i´ll get you guys something good!" The barkeeper says getting some cool drinks from the counter. "Oh a fellow human!" Hi realises. "Don´t often see humans around here. On what business are you here?" he asks him. "Nothing much just hunting!" Hi says putting his hat on the counter. "And you ?" he asks Sozin. "Same here teaching this guy how to hunt and to use his powers correctly. He improved to say the least!" he answers. "Interesting!" the barkeeper answers pouring them drinks. He passes it on to them. It is a glass filled with purple liquid and some fruits on top. "Thanks!" Hi says taking a sip. "An interesting drink !" Sozin comments. "You used wine from the holy kingdom of light mixed with the purple juice of the local fruit!" Sozin says. "That´s right you got good taste!" the barkeeper answers. "One has to wonder what a human does in a country full with beastmen and a barkeeper at that. "You know stuff happens! I lived in the holy kingdom of light and i did somethings that were wrong and so i was exiled. I wandered south through the desert until i dropped. Then as through some stroke of luck she found me. My wife. A halfbeast woman strangely enough half cat half human. She offered me some water and i drank. She saved me then i didn´t know how to pay her back until we got to know each other. Her father owned a tavern, family business and they needed some staff and new ideas and now i´m here!" he tells them. "Amazing!" Hi says. "Is that her back there?" Hi asks."Yes it is beautiful ain´t she?" he says looking at her. "Stop talking about my daughter and get back to work!" the owner tells him. "Owner! I was simply talking to the customers! These two are hunters isn´t that nice?" he tells him. The owner is a big halfhuman halfblackcat he is well built and has multiple scars across his body. "Hunters, eh? I remember those times i was young and had fun hunting just like you unfortunately my party wasn´t so lucky. They all died except for me. My wife my friends everything was gone in an instant. Demons slaughtered each and every one of them. They came out of nowhere after we killed a big tiger in the desert. They left me with these!" he says showing them his scars still faintly pulsing with dark purple energy. "Ouch!" Hi says. "You smell different!" he notices. "You have the same smell as me and you too! You fought demons and survived? However yours is burnt and there is no purple enegy, but you... You still have that purple energy but as a part of you. It seem it is still smoldering inside as fuel!" he tells them. "Nasty, eh?" Sozin says showing his scars. Hi is confused "Inside me? I don´t feel different." he says. "So why is it?" the owner wonders. "My guess would be it´s his special gift. The first flame passed down through generations. It has changed as time passes and has consumed other flames and energy and made it´s own as fuel. Fire has a different color depending on which material is used as fuel!" Sozin deducts. "My flame? Passed onto me through my father?" Hi asks. "Surely you´ve noticed that your fire is different to you father´s. It is powered through a different energy source than your ancestors. It´s nature is to burn forever and it has a hunger for more so it can burn more brightly. Whatever energy you absorb is devoured by the flame inside. Such is the nature of the very first flame. Normally those born with fire element posess a flame that is theirs alone personally tailored to one´s character. But your´s stays the same for centuries only the person needs to adapt to it not it to the person!" Sozin explains. "So the flame posesses somewhat of it´s own will!" Hi says. "You could say that. It is in conflict with your will. It uses you to stay lit, but you have to make it submit that unwieldy flame. Only then is it´s true power revealed!" Sozin tells him. "Amazing you´re not a teacher for nothing. You know a lot despite looking no older than me!" T´chal says drinking. "No wonder i´m progressing so slow with fire magic. Intuition doesn´t work for such a wild flame like it does for swordplay and martial arts." Hi says. "That time you fought that lesser dragon and the demons. You were so on edge you didn´t realise that the fire was running comletely free. That is it´s biggest strength and weakness." Sozin says. "I understand now what it means to control the flame instead of letting it control me!" Hi says. "I must warn you to be wary of your emotions! Don´t let them take control of you otherwise you will burn more than you want. I had to learn that the hard way but you have to be extra-careful since your flame is more powerful than mine. It is afterall the first flame the dragons gave mankind. I only received a fraction of it like my brothers but your family has had the same original flame for centuries it is more powerful than you can imagine!" Sozin tells him. "I see how much power rests on my shoulders. I can understand father now i cannot let that flame burn wild setting the world on fire." Hi says. "Your´s however isn´t the only which had it´s primeval element passed down. There exist six more. Water, lightening, wood, metal, light, darkness. Darkness was inhereted by the demons which also causes demonification. The other were spread across the strongest clans you know. They all are extremely powerful and keep each other i check should one overstep. It´s descendants are also similiar but tailor to the user more. It can result in magic stronger than it´s original but that is extremely rare that´s why the families keep their power." Sozin explains. "Our countries emperor posesses the primeval lightening element." T´chal said. "I can tell you more tales but that is only if you join our party. Our goal change the world more or less!" Sozin tells him. "That came out of nowhere but fine i´ll join your party. I will keep in contact i´ll be there if you call me if duty doesn´t call me first! Speaking of which i have to go! " Tchal says dropping some coins on the counter. "See you around!" T´chal says leaving the tavern. "He paid how nice of him! Reminds me of when i was younger!" the owner says. "You´ll be leaving too right? Please come again sometime!" the barkeeper says. "Alright! Hi let´s go back to the capital city we have a hearing with the king!" Sozin says. "The king? Seriously what does he want from us?" Hi asks. "Propably gonna give you an earful about your quick rise to S-rank!" Sozin says. "You sound like you know him!" Hi says. "Oh, i do he´s pretty arrogant and careful. I remember that brat telling me "Just because your strong doesn´t mean you can do as you please!". He was just intimidated and knows he needs to uphold his image as a strong and just king." Sozin says. He grabs his shoulder and teleports them back to the grand capital.
