But this was what she'd volunteered to do and she was going to see it through. She wanted to see the world from a new view point, to experience things that not many of her kind had the chance to do.<br/>There was more to it than that though.<br/><br/>Something had compelled her to step forward when the subject of the twins being unmated was raised into question. She remembered them from her childhood, two boys who fought like a cat and mouse, yet always stuck by each others side and even protected her from the occasional bully that stemmed from either clan. The three of them had been inseparable for a long time, until a decision was made among the elders that the clans would split and move to their own ends of the earth.  After a tear filled good bye, she never saw them again. So, she stepped forward and accepted the task of becoming mated to one of them for more reasons than just one. But the thought of either of them in the arms of someone else bothered her very deeply.<br/><br/>No. She was convinced that this was truly the right path to take.<br/><br/>Wings outstretched after final goodbyes were said, she took off shooting through the skies in her natural form of a large blue dragon and dodged through the clouds of a rising storm on the horizon. Flying came as easily to her as breathing. It was almost as though it were simply a part of her blood, ingrained into the very core of her being from the moment she was born. Of course, that wasn't entirely true. Baby dragons couldn't fly within the first few years of their lives. Wings had to grow on their backs and parents had to instruct them on the correct method to use first. Memories of when she was first learning to fly worked their way through her mind as she continued to battle the elements and the winds. Her mother's laughter, her Father's wise words and the amount of fun she had performing various manoeuvres once she picked up how.<br/><br/>She was going to miss them very much. <br/><br/>Several hours passed of pretty much following the same pattern with her flying and for a little while, Sylvia was starting to wonder if she'd missed the location she'd been given for the village. Deciding it was best to check anyway, she dipped down low beneath the clouds and spread her wings wide as she did a full circle in mid air. Slightly to the right of where she had been suspended a moment ago, she spotted the location and noted structures that appeared to be dwellings that resembled those used by her own clan.  Deciding it was best to head down and introduce herself to the elder before searching for the twins, she headed down towards the entrance of the village and began to shift her shape in mid air.<br/><br/>The wings were the last things to disappear, her otherwise human looking body slowly hovering in mid air until her bared feet gently touched upon the ground. She wore a simply white dress now that reached slightly below her knees and held onto her shoulders with a simple set of spaghetti straps and the simple shoes on her feet were a pair of white slip-ons without heels. They complimented the light blue shade of her hair which reached and curled at the nape of her neck, also serving to bring out the silver colouring of her eyes to make their uniqueness stand out. Her father had told her that it would impress the brothers and she flushed brightly at the memory.<br/><br/>Would they like her?<br/>What if they resented her for being the one to volunteer to make the decision of their fate?<br/><br/>So many questions ran through her head.<br/>By the time she managed to find the elders house and quietly let herself inside, her hands were trembling and she wasn't so sure if she still wanted to do this. Voices from the main chamber drew her attention and curiosity soon took over from the nervousness she was feeling. Sylvia poked her head around the open door to the room in question, and her eyes widened when she caught sight of the two brothers being lectured by the elder.</div>
