Arkain looks at the staff and chuckles then rolls his head to the side and shrugs his shoulders. "Well, it all depends what you use the staff for." He looks at the staff he is holding in his hand and it changes shape into a long spear. "Now if you choose to use your staff to harm someone then you will have to leave and fend for yourself out there but if you choose to use it peaceful things like." He changes the spear into a very pretty bouquet of flowers and hands them to you with a warm smile. "Then you are more then welcome to stay." He chuckles. "Trust me they're are out there. You couldn't see Natchia in depths of the lake but he's there. We know that for sure." He sits up and looks over at you. "Why its so peaceful here is because I took away the need to fight for food here. At a normal watering hole the bigger predators would be preying on the smaller creatures that would come for a drink until something bigger came along and ate them. Problem was due to the drought the food supply was quickly dwindling here and if something wasn't done soon the food would be wiped out. So with the help of an elder dragon we came up with initiation." He looks around the area then back at you. "The initiation is that everyone that stays here is initiated by being digested and reformed then my reformation magic protects anyone who was initiated. Its rule number one. Do you seeing where I am going with this?" He grins proudly at the way the idea has worked across the years.
