Zagreus may be a little unpredictable at times with his uncontrollable werewolf curse and all. But Nightwing chose him to come along because of his knowledge of the supernatural, his excellent tracking ability and his fairly decent fighting ability. Which makes him a good ally to have around. the werewolf curse has caused some problems on quests before but it's been nothing life threatening to Nightwing.

He had dedicated much of his life to the study of the so-called kindly ones and their markedly un-draconic forms of magic. When offered the chance to study for a time with the renowned scholars of the Observatory- and peruse the cryptic and ancient texts in its expansive library- he jumped at the call, eager to see what lifelong experts of the arcane might have to say about his field of study. While he studied amongst the acolytes of the Arcanist, Sigurd came across a curious tome describing archaic myths of Shadow clans secluded in the darkest dales of the Tangled Wood. These stories spoke of monsters whose very essence was deceit, and the famous but poorly known dragons who fought against them. Sigurd hypothesized that the mimic monsters were somehow connected to a court of fair folk, and thought that the hidden dragons of the same tales might be able to shed a little light on the matter. His mind swam in a sea of glorious scholarly possibility, and eagerly he rushed out to start conducting studies in the Tangled Wood. Of course, his little expedition did not go as expected. He found what he was looking for, all right, but was soon left searching for "Singers" in a dense grove overrun with monsters and very much in over his head, with far more questions than answers. If- no, [i]when[/i]- he recovered the missing dragonets, he was going to make this Shadowsong sit down and explain what she could, somehow. But how would he accomplish that? He was a scholar, not a warrior. His natural habitat was a dusty library awash in ink and parchment, not a battlefield full of hidden enemies. What magic he possessed was hilariously unfit for combat (he didn't think Shadowsong would take kindly to him burning the forest down with his native Fire magic). Some luck smiled on him that day, for it so happened that he was not the only dragon from his clan in the murky woods. By chance Sigurd ran across Rajaion, a magician who was passing through that day, gathering supplies for some ridiculous magic trick, no doubt. Rajaion was generally regarded as somewhat useless, albeit very clever; a harmless but irritating prankster. Normally Sigurd wouldn't have given the Spiral much thought, but under the circumstances he was thrilled to have any familiar face for an ally, even a foolish and mischievous one. After bumping into Rajaion an encounter with Cora wasn't far behind. When her twin Dullahan fell ill and was unable to perform his duties as courier Cora offered to cover for him, and among the messages in her bag was a missive to Rajaion from their clan leader herself. It was a frustrating task to deliver a letter to so slippery a character, and once she'd managed that Cora was spoiling for a fight to let off some stress. Sigurd privately would've preferred to have her grandfather Ankou- a renowned warlock and Sigurd's idolized mentor- at his side, but he knew Cora would do everything in her considerable power to keep all three of them safe in their upcoming trials, even if she didn't really get what the heck was going on.

Kafei groaned and stretched a little, and then noticed who had woken him up. She was smiling at him, wiping away the old blood, pulling out thorns. "Mornin', Anju." He couldn't help but smile as he got to his feet, brushing away the tangled and scorched vines. It was so nice to be awoken by his dear wife and not by nightmares for once. How she knew he was up at the Astral Observatory, he didn't know. He never told her. "I made you a nice cup of tea to warm you up and get you going," she told him. "No tea, thanks. I have something to get to. I have to go find these nocturne hatchlings and save Sornieth. And possibly Termina." "Nocturne hatchlings?" Anju's eyes lit up. "That is [i]sooooo[/i] cute! I love their little horns!" She paused. "Did I ever tell you how cute you were when you were turned into a hatchling?" He laughed and, noticing the cup of tea, took a sip. "You can come with if you want, sweetie." "I'll be with you every step of the way." [img]http://flightrising.com/rendern/350/355052/35505173_350.png[/img] "Did someone say side quest?" With a crash, Link fell through the roof. After watching the apocalypse happen at least twice, the Mirror had loosened up a lot. Now he was that rambunctious, daring teenage dragon who would crash through the nearest wall or ceiling at the very mention of an epic quest. "Yes, there's a quest, but you're not coming with us," said Kafei with a sigh. "And you're going to have to pay for that hole in the roof." "AWESOME!" Link exclaimed, knocking the saucer off the table it was sitting on. "And I get to do it with you guys! And look, I even have my hero markings!" He gestured to the grey smirches on his face and wings. "Let's just take him with us, honey." Anju coiled her tail around her husband comfortingly. "I just love to see him happy." "All right," sighed the purple nocturne, annoyed with the young mirror. With that, they took off into the pale, chilly dawn, with Link singing "500 Miles" as loud as he could, and the others grinning and bearing it.

"For unlike you, I know how to love. And I know who to love."

LoveIsntRealLoveIsntRealLoveIsntReal, said the whispers.

"Yes it is! Nothing you say will tell me otherwise!"

TraitorTraitorTraitorTraitorTraitor...

"Traitor!" came a voice from the whispers. Female. Familiar. Beloved. Anju. Or was it those mimicking voices? "I thought you would love me forever! You promised! As sure as this ribbon is tied around my arm, you said. But there you go again, off with those...those...shadowy ne'er-do-well dragons!"

"I know who you are. You are nothing but a nightmare, a voice trying to pull me away! I don't want to end up like Thana, you understand?" The vines were growing stronger, tighter.

"All you want to do is go off into the shadows, leaving me for naught. Goodbye forever." A black ribbon fell in front of him, transmuting itself into a black spiny vine. They were choking him, ripping into his flesh with their thorns, wrapping around his neck as the words echoed in his mind.

GoodbyeGoodbyeGoodbyeGoodbyeGoodbye.

"No! Come back! I—gaaaaack!"

Then silence.

"Rise and shine, sleepyhead! You must have been hurt hard."

Kafei groaned and stretched a little, and then noticed who had woken him up. She was smiling at him, wiping away the old blood, pulling out thorns.

"Mornin', Anju." He couldn't help but smile as he got to his feet, brushing away the tangled and scorched vines. It was so nice to be awoken by his dear wife and not by nightmares for once. How she knew he was up at the Astral Observatory, he didn't know. He never told her.

"I made you a nice cup of tea to warm you up and get you going," she told him.

"No tea, thanks. I have something to get to. I have to go find these nocturne hatchlings and save Sornieth. And possibly Termina."

"Nocturne hatchlings?" Anju's eyes lit up. "That is sooooo cute! I love their little horns!" She paused. "Did I ever tell you how cute you were when you were turned into a hatchling?"

He laughed and, noticing the cup of tea, took a sip. "You can come with if you want, sweetie."

"I'll be with you every step of the way."

"Did someone say side quest?" With a crash, Link fell through the roof. After watching the apocalypse happen at least twice, the Mirror had loosened up a lot. Now he was that rambunctious, daring teenage dragon who would crash through the nearest wall or ceiling at the very mention of an epic quest.

"Yes, there's a quest, but you're not coming with us," said Kafei with a sigh. "And you're going to have to pay for that hole in the roof."

"AWESOME!" Link exclaimed, knocking the saucer off the table it was sitting on. "And I get to do it with you guys! And look, I even have my hero markings!" He gestured to the grey smirches on his face and wings.

"Let's just take him with us, honey." Anju coiled her tail around her husband comfortingly. "I just love to see him happy."

"All right," sighed the purple nocturne, annoyed with the young mirror. With that, they took off into the pale, chilly dawn, with Link singing "500 Miles" as loud as he could, and the others grinning and bearing it.
