Dragons? Like Tengri, Ejderha, and Evren? Tengri was the chief Deity, depicted as good, just, and fair. Ejderha were evil dragons, they are against man. The Evren dragons are symbols of might and power. Chad loved dragons, except evil ones, of course. He couldn't think of anything better than the ability to ride a dragon. Excitedly he looked at her and said "I could ride an Evren? A dragon like Tengri? Magic and dragons, Shaman and Evren rider, this is the best school." He followed her, and took heavy steps down the hall.<br/><br/>The smell of pizza filled his nostrils, pizza too? This was the best school. Chad was looking forward to everything she talked about, he couldn't imagine having new clothes, pets, all while learning how to do things he could have only dreamed of before. Chad had always lived in poverty, to be in such a grand place, to be promised such great things, he was in awe. Life was good, Chad thought, it always comes back to being good, thank you Tengri. He thought that if dragons were real, then Tengri must be real as well. Chad never thought too much about religion before, most people he met didn't really believe it, or if they did, they didn't really believe dragons were still around. But now he was being told different and he was glad that he was.<br/><br/>Chad walked up to the doors of the dining room, looking inside he saw a girl leaning on a boy with a strange looking arm. It looked almost like it was made from the earth. He thought that they must be like David and Estelle, a couple. He also saw two other girls who were each in different corners of the room. He thought that they must need a friend, and maybe a hug. Still smiling he looked at Lady Violetta to see if it was okay for him to go inside.<br/><br/>-------<br/><br/>James let Eira rest her head on his shoulder. He knew someone looking at them would think some things, but he didn't care. She needed to rest and maybe his energy, so he would be here for her, no matter what they thought. He looked at Angela and wondered if there was something he could do to make her feel less alone. He would have to talk to her later. He turned slightly towards the door, trying not to disturb Eira.<br/><br/>He had heard loud footsteps, and looking at the entrance to the dining hall he saw a huge man, who must be over six and half feet tall. He was smiling an almost childlike smile, as if just happy for the sake of being happy. James wondered what he was doing here, would he be a teacher? P.E. teacher maybe, James didn't like the thought of that. He could be capable of great feats of magic, but by the look of him he looked like a workout junkie, maybe even a wrestler, all things James couldn't relate with. And James was sure that Magic was a purely mental feat, something he knew he would better at than any physical work. James was kind of a couch potato geek, he only ever ran or rode his bike out of necessity, and wouldn't work out or exercise in any other way.
