"Thank you very much. I have not cooked since I was younger." Adair surprised everyone by admitting that she was the one to cook. It was clear that Shay had known though due to her smaller smirk showing. It was interesting that Walker was able to see the smirk on Shay\'s face even though she was fully shifted in to a warrior form. It was something he had a sixth sense for due to being around Midnight for so long. 

"I know you plan to leave and I will not hold you long. The journey will take some time since I have asked Illia to take you on a tour of the mountains around here. She will also be teaching you about the trails for you to take when you travel back here in your lifetime. They are best visible from the air." Adair knew that the party may return one day and seeing the view would be ideal. This was also a good chance for humans who couldn\'t fly to get a feeling of what it is like being a dragon in the sky. 

"We would appreciate that. I will memorize them as I look below. It will be very good for the travels in the future. I am sure we will need to go through the mountains if we ever want to go to the desert in the future." Walker knew that their quests and adventures may one day take them through the mountains. He was not foolish enough to ignore such a valuable chance as to see the shorter and more efficient trails around the mountain range. 

"Now for some final advice. When you go to the main village, bring some monster meat as a gift. Many hunt monsters on their way there and give it to the village so that the hatchlings can have strong meals." Adair pointed at Midnight who was still slightly snacking even though it was clear she was full. 

"Also remember this dragon saying, never fly too high in the sky. You may not be the only one with wings. It has been around for some time but it is to tell us that sometimes we must think of where we are going. Control ourselves. And avoid unnecessary risks. I wish I knew the origin." Walker wasn\'t sure either because dragons were the dominant species in the sky. Yet, he memorized the saying anyways so that he might hold himself from saying anything foolish in the future. 

It wasn\'t the most fluid saying but Walker remembered it easily. "Your hospitality has been appreciated. I still don\'t know how you knew that Midnight and I had an equal contract but I\'m very glad you did." Walker believed that they had gained immensely from this meeting. He was both interested and worried about going to a larger dragon village.

"When you get old enough you start to get some interesting instincts and sight." Adair laughed a little keeping her secret. "I hope you know that you will be welcome at this village anytime as long as it is allowed by my lord." Adair would leave the invitation open but knew things may change after they visit the main dragon village.

"This may be a little forward since dragons don\'t often participate in other races\' affairs… there is a summit with multiple races in a short time from now. It\'s based on a new city being built and is like to invite the dragonkind as a race. Do you see that as a viable option?" Walker had thought of this in some depth and decided it would be wise since Midnight and he would most likely be in genesis often. And with a trade deal for the alchemy guild, a dragon or dragonkin could visit the city anyway.

"I can not promise a thing. However, I can send a letter to my lord. It is rare for the dragons to act as a race. We usually act as a species under our lords. If it is interesting enough my lord may send someone or potentially go themselves. I will give my best. It sounds as if having relations with your future village will be beneficial. Being related to another royal\'s village is very touching." 

Adair was misinterpreting this as Walker\'s invitation to his village. Yet, as Walker thought about this, the Genesis city was his village. He and his party\'s will had pushed it in to existence. The other races and rulers also played a part. Since he broke norms for most races what was another? The city could be his village but run without him as a ruler. It was perfect to welcome dragons and put the races on a more equal footing. 

"That is a good idea, I will make Genesis my village but it will be different." Walker did not fail to notice that Shay began recording his words about the races coming together. Adair even seemed to smile wider hearing something new for the future instead of the same old secluded boredom.
