Chapter 2279: 2279. Make It Right

They knew very well that she would have learned a great deal about the history of dragons within the elemental planes when they all return. But they also understood that Ventus and the others might have learned some integral parts about manas and wind mana as a whole. This could change their perspectives as well.

"The dominator dragon there are older than even the history we have. They remember when the world was the more dangerous place. The ancient monsters and how the elemental planes are the safer places for dragons to live."

Rise looked down at Aella again and wondered about safety. Right now, some of their elders were unsettled and did not believe that the royals were still strong. Especially with the fact that they had formed alliances and changed the course of dragon history as they all knew it. "The dominator dragons can not move. They help balance mana at a level well above what we can even understand. With the world being cut off from them for so long, they are ahead of us and the ancient on ster battles that forged dragons of the world in to intensely powerful beings are no more. That means we are the weak ones."

"We must be united if we wish to be able to meet them. Their dragonkin are not the same either. They have also changed due to the pure mana over many years. They are not even recognizable in some forms." Ventus was trying to recall what she had been told. However, she also understood she had not been brought to meet these dragonkin for a reason.

The differences would have been there. Yet, the wind dominator dragon she had met would worry about the dragonkin he led wanting to follow another. Especially the young ones. They may have seen a dominator dragon that could move and not be anchored down. A chance for more than just maintaining a balance. There were always some who wished for change to come.

Rise was remaining entirely calm while she listened to Ventus speak. That was when she glanced to the side and Current came flying toward them. "I thought I sensed some fighting, not that it appears to have been much."

The royal dragons dealing with a few issues with their elders now and then was normal. However, current could tell that ventus had managed to do something quite potent to handle the issue that had come to her. "I assume this is something you have learned recently?" he pointed at the collapsed Aella without a hint of wind mana around her.

"Yes, from the wind dominator dragon within the wind elemental plane, I learned how to manipulate wind better. I could not test it nor use wind mana while there. I accepted those terms. However, I did learn to take away the mana from dragons that serve me. Not in cruelty, but enough to show them strength over the mana and understanding of what we are as wind dragons."

There was a lot more to it, but nothing more than that would make any sense to the other royal dragon since they had different elemental affinities. They seemed to understand this as well. "As I was saying to Rise, this is the start of our history changing. While I learned some from the wind dominator dragon within the wind elemental plane, I understand that we were descendants of extremely powerful dragons."

"Those that could travel in to the world and compete with the chaotic manas and ever changing terrain. Those that could fight or survive the ancient monsters in their most powerful forms. They were trapped here when the world fell apart. The pure elemental dragons continued to live within the elemental planes, we grew weaker here and lost the knowledge to grow further."

Rise looked at Current and Ventus, her eyes holding their gaze. "We have already accepted a great deal. Even I have made relevant changes..." Her deep breath was enough to show her mind lingering on how she could have made different choices and had things go very mentally.

"If we need to begin to think about the issues that may arise within or even after our lifetimes, then we should do so. Learning things as Ventus has which allows her to do what Walker is able to do. To isolate the mana and cease others from using magical or even their own skills. Then we must do so overall and not just as individuals."

Seeing that it was Rise agreeing with everyone was somewhat shocking for the group. Not that they did not trust her or that they did not expect her to remain calm. It was that Ventus and Current thought that she would have wanted to remain growing alone. She had been keeping to herself very much so since they had begun developing territories for the dragons. As they began to speak a little more in depth, Mordant was standing carefully with Willow. She had brought her to the Genesis building where Erica was currently.

"Erica is here. You know this building is where all of the leaders of Genesis meet and where many of those that need help come first." Mordant saw that Willow would not speak since she still was under the impression that she would be punished harshly. Align with the fact that Mordant had a clear power over her using shadows and darkness mana entirely.

While they walked in to the Genesis building and passed the counters, Willow heard a few voices praising Erica. "She was incredibly upset after she had been told she was not your child any longer. That she was tainted." Mordant\'s glare could have crushed weaker beings if they were not mentally strong enough. But he still continued.

"She came here because she knew this was where Alice was and where others would arrive after they handled their business. Midnight is like an older sister teaching her many things. Alice was like a kind teacher to her. To be said that the things she learned from them were wrong when Erica is one of the first to be able to show off a unique form of wind and light mana together. It\'s insulting."

"You, as a dragon, insulted one of those who will grow to be a pillar of our race growing within Genesis. You failed as a parent. You failed what the wind dragons use to set themselves apart from us other dragons. The protection of children." Mordant saw that Erica noticed the wind mana and the dragonkin form of Willow as they entered her.

Erica\'s clearly afraid appearance as Alice took a step in front of her with light beginning to gather around her. The small hum proved that Alice would gladly do more than just make some small light barrier to defend Erica from the mother who had harmed her recently.

"Do you not see what you have done? If Aella were to become the royal wind dragon and you the first elder under her, would you wish to see all others beneath you in fear? Would you wish to see your blood like this?"

Mordant did not stop his pressure. Dark mana was pushing down on Willow while she had to listen to every single word. She knew very well that there was nothing she could do, say, or think that would protect her. She also could feel everything much more clearly.

"You were wronged. Your mana was taken while you slumbered. Your fellow elder, took from you. They harmed you in a state that every dragon and dragonkin protects. It is a disgrace to our race and to our position within Genesis. You should not need to worry about those that should protect you. Your dragonkin did not expect this and neither did any other wind dragon.

"That does not mean you can wallow in this position. You have a choice right now. You will suffer the same fate as Aella. A loss of all her power as an elder and most likely her life. Or, you can attempt to right the wrongs you have done in your harmed state. You can step back and begin to learn how to walk forward."

Alice backed off after hearing what Mordant had said. She completely understood some of the situation but most importantly, the reason that he had come here. She had just arrived within the Genesis building shortly before Erica came. She had her business, but had dropped that in

a heartbeat.Nôv(el)B\\\\jnn

Neither Mordant nor Alice spoke a word. Even the rushing attendants that needed to get in the same room bothered to take a step as they watched a mother begin to remedy her mistake

with her child.

No one cared for their race as this happened. Who would?
