Warship Island #19

The Assassin greeted the kids. They all sat in front of the fire to enjoy the fish and celebrations. The city had been freed from the tyrannical Marine rule. The Ryu Dragons would find their egg and now returned to the mountains. Allison now existed between the town and the dragons, Apis, promising a string relationship and future of the island. Grandpa Ryu said his goodbyes before flying over the horizon.

Talon inquired to the egg, and they would oblige,

[Uno] “Ummmm. We’re not sure! Something about using the Ryu dragons bones for a potion. Adults are so stuuupid. That’s impossible!”​

​

[Dos] “The fat man said he could create “eternal youth” from the egg or the bones of a Ryo dragon. OI! Onnichan! What does ‘eternal’ mean?”​

​

The kids chattered among themselves. They revealed the dragons allegedly had the power to grant youth. The kids clearly did not believe it, or understood how it worked. They did not understand even the bigger words. Now it would be clear: Commodore Nelson wanted tophe Ryu dragons to give him youth and take him from his obese bondage.

Apis chimed in. She knew more, as she could converse with the dragons.

[Apis] “Grandpa Ryu says it is a nectar of curse. Those who harm such an innocent will grant youth, but lead a life half-dead. But now, the dragons are safe!”​

Talon had his answer. What he chose to do with the information was a mystery. The kids now trusted him, oblivious. They would party into the night, their laughs hugging the night in the now new and peaceful Warship Island.

The children would oblige to Talon’s requests, if not for perhaps the fear of being killed or they are kids, easy to earn trust once you helped them, for these children there are in the latter – and so with the Dragon returning from whence it came, the children and Talon would have their talk. The kids would blabber, mentioning how the egg has magical properties when transformed into an elixir, as Dos would have called it ‘eternal youth’. A strange thing for a Marine to acquire – perhaps not for himself but for others? It is hard to place a proper conclusion, but at the very least this information is useful. The Underworld would find use of such elixir for sure, but whether or not Talon would indulge in these information is anyone else’s guess.

But for now, the kids would celebrate their success into the night. Soon Talon would finally leave the children to their fun, his job is done after all – all that is left is to report. With good byes exchanged through gestures, the Assassin finally left and return to his ship. His ship waited for him throughout the day as they would finally be given commanded to set sail, to finally go back home.
