At the very least, they knew a lot about the Scarred Wasteland and could direct them towards the safest possible routes towards the border - and she had a feeling they will have to cross the Plague domain a lot. Even Cheeto was slowly warming up to the Aberration, although she was keeping him at talon-length. Purplestar still couldn't shake the weird feeling she was getting from him and the land, though. Junior took her and Jaguar yesterday on a lengthy patrol, to let them connect a bit better to their element. Mirror was hesitant and nervous, but it was more so due to Junior's stories about the Mirror herds fighting. Purplestar was more open to the walk, although an unease was building up in her. She now understood why her and Moon's elements clashed, and she didn't like it - why was it happening. Junior explained it was due to the conflict between Plague and Nature domains, but she still couldn't get it. Why can't they be at peace? It's been years since it begun. When she voiced her disbelief, Junior laughed and called her naive. Since then she didn't mention it, hurt. They moved from the Hellwell Undercroft the next day, with ease and their supplies at reasonable levels. They shouldn't be worrying about running out of food any time soon, especially with Cheeto's culinary talent. But apparently their food storage was also very attractive to outsiders too, because suddenly Moon rose an alarm, just like when Qiriqs attacked, but this time a noise came from the back of the caravan and then a black shape leaped outside. The dark Aether pounced in front of it, cutting its escape, and soon enough the other caravan members surrounded the creature. Upon closer inspection, Purplestar realized it was just a black and white dragon. They looked bigger than Jaguar and Cheeto, and yet something about their blunt and short spikes made her wonder if it was just a big hatchling. They lowered themselves to the ground, curling the tail around them and yet they hissed at the surrounding dragons. "Hey, easy! We won't hurt you." Purplestar cooed at the dragon, who looked at her suspiciously, not lowering their defenses. "We won't?" Junior's left head questioned, tilting to the side. Cheeto narrowed her eyes, but said nothing. "Yeah, we won't." the purple Aether insisted, nodding. "Just.. what were you doing inside out caravan?" The hatchling hesitated, but then she heard their stomach rumble. It was clear enough of an answer. "M' hungry. And I saw you three hunt alot. I just want food, no treasure." Purplestar looked at the black dragon with sympathy. They looked a bit thin and tired. Dallas stepped a bit closer, trying to sniff the hatchling. "Where are your parents?" "I dunno.." the dragon sniffled, looking down. "Weird green creatures with horns came and we got separated, few days ago." "Ah. Fungalhoof Qiriqs." Junior hummed, their right head looking up. "One of the Mirror herds breeds and trains them in combat and hunting. Lucky you got away." A shiver ran down Purplestar's spine, at their own memory of the attack. She was hoping they were just wild creatures, and not potentially sent by one of the fighting herds. Could that mean they were on their tail now? She doubted they were strong enough to fight an entire herd of Mirrors. But still, she didn't feel like they should just leave the Ridgeback alone. Cheeto seemed to agree, as she nodded at the Aether. "We have plenty of food to spare. Starving a hatchling won't do anyone any good." Dallas and Moon nodded in agreement, with Jaguar chirping as well, while Junior seemed a bit skeptical. He glanced at Purplestar, almost as if challenging her to disagree with them and make a different choice as a 'leader'. Her jaw tightened for a moment, before she fixed her position to be more confident. "You are right. We are in this together, after all!"

The Ridgeback hatchling was curious if a bit introverted, and didn't want to cause problems, as if fearing they will kick them out. She learned from them that they were travelling to the Dragonhome with their parents, when they encountered the Fungalhoof Qiriqs. Shade is still hoping they will find them, but unfortunately they weren't going towards the Dragonhome yet, but at the very least, they can let them stay in caravan until they get strong enough to find them alone. Moon trotted towards them, holding a big fish. Ridgeback ate only seafood, which made feeding Shade a bit complicated, if they had run of it. That's why Purplestar took Jaguar and Dallas on a hunting patrol earlier. They hadn't return still, which made Cheeto a bit nervous. With the herds fighting and wildlife being dragged into the conflict too, it seemed to be rather dangerous to remain around. But they still had a lengthy route to go through before they can even reach Wind domain. Just as dark Aether handed them the fish, he froze and his eyes went wider than the moon. Skydancer eyed him with concern, but as she opened her mouth to ask, he suddenly collapsed and began to spasm on the ground. Shade yelled in shock, jumping behind her, while she stared at Moon too shocked to move. Junion slithered into the view, their left head nudging the Aether that stopped moving. The right heads was still held high, looking at her. "He is just unconscious. Relax." he said plainly, putting the Aether in more comfortable position, rather than splayed on the ground. "But- how did that even happen?" she demanded, almost as if it was Aberration's fault. But before he could even say anything, they head a loud shout in the distance, followed by two blue blurs flying towards them with a purple one between them. But a shiver ran down Cheeto's spine when she realized the purple one wasn't moving - it was being carried by the other ones. As they got closer, Dallas suddenly paused, their expression growing more terrified at the sight of Moon. Jaguar carefully put Purplestar down on the ground, breathing heavily. "What even happened?" Cheeto mustered enough strength to finally ask, and it took the blue-orange Aether a moment to register the question. "We- we were hunting and then- there were those weird flying fawns and-" they had to pause every now and then from their labored breathing. "And then one just tackled h-her and- and bit her! And she collapsed!" Aberration tilted their heads before approaching the unconscious purple Aether, sniffing her as well. "Not dead, also. Strange. Dragons rarely survive such hits from Flying Fawns." "But- but then why Moon-?" Cheeto asked, baffled. Moon was with them this whole time, he wasn't fighting in any way. He wasn't even injured. "Well.. Arcane scholar, did you ever heard of a fatebond?" Junior asked, with a tone that could come as mocking. She bristled, but she dug into her memory. "Of course. It connects life forces between two or more creatures, so if one dies.. so does another." she explained, her voice going quieter. "But.. they aren't dead. And I don't even know how the fatebond happened between them and when." "Well, I don't know how they aren't necessarily dead, either." Junior shrugged. "Or how it happened. But it did. Better get them inside the caravan, before something mistakes them for carrion." Skydancer tensed at his choice of words, and she even noticed Jaguar curl her lips into a snarl, in response. Dallas looked uncomfortable, but they ensure both Aether were placed in the caravan safely, in comfortable positions.

While Cheeto didn't trust Junior, she felt much better about Shade, despite their unfortunate name. The Ridgeback hatchling was curious if a bit introverted, and didn't want to cause problems, as if fearing they will kick them out. She learned from them that they were travelling to the Dragonhome with their parents, when they encountered the Fungalhoof Qiriqs. Shade is still hoping they will find them, but unfortunately they weren't going towards the Dragonhome yet, but at the very least, they can let them stay in caravan until they get strong enough to find them alone.
Moon trotted towards them, holding a big fish. Ridgeback ate only seafood, which made feeding Shade a bit complicated, if they had run of it. That's why Purplestar took Jaguar and Dallas on a hunting patrol earlier. They hadn't return still, which made Cheeto a bit nervous. With the herds fighting and wildlife being dragged into the conflict too, it seemed to be rather dangerous to remain around. But they still had a lengthy route to go through before they can even reach Wind domain.

Just as dark Aether handed them the fish, he froze and his eyes went wider than the moon. Skydancer eyed him with concern, but as she opened her mouth to ask, he suddenly collapsed and began to spasm on the ground. Shade yelled in shock, jumping behind her, while she stared at Moon too shocked to move.
Junion slithered into the view, their left head nudging the Aether that stopped moving. The right heads was still held high, looking at her.
"He is just unconscious. Relax." he said plainly, putting the Aether in more comfortable position, rather than splayed on the ground.
"But- how did that even happen?" she demanded, almost as if it was Aberration's fault. But before he could even say anything, they head a loud shout in the distance, followed by two blue blurs flying towards them with a purple one between them. But a shiver ran down Cheeto's spine when she realized the purple one wasn't moving - it was being carried by the other ones.
As they got closer, Dallas suddenly paused, their expression growing more terrified at the sight of Moon. Jaguar carefully put Purplestar down on the ground, breathing heavily.
"What even happened?" Cheeto mustered enough strength to finally ask, and it took the blue-orange Aether a moment to register the question.
"We- we were hunting and then- there were those weird flying fawns and-" they had to pause every now and then from their labored breathing. "And then one just tackled h-her and- and bit her! And she collapsed!"
Aberration tilted their heads before approaching the unconscious purple Aether, sniffing her as well. "Not dead, also. Strange. Dragons rarely survive such hits from Flying Fawns."
"But- but then why Moon-?" Cheeto asked, baffled. Moon was with them this whole time, he wasn't fighting in any way. He wasn't even injured.
"Well.. Arcane scholar, did you ever heard of a fatebond?" Junior asked, with a tone that could come as mocking. She bristled, but she dug into her memory.
"Of course. It connects life forces between two or more creatures, so if one dies.. so does another." she explained, her voice going quieter. "But.. they aren't dead. And I don't even know how the fatebond happened between them and when."
"Well, I don't know how they aren't necessarily dead, either." Junior shrugged. "Or how it happened. But it did. Better get them inside the caravan, before something mistakes them for carrion."
Skydancer tensed at his choice of words, and she even noticed Jaguar curl her lips into a snarl, in response. Dallas looked uncomfortable, but they ensure both Aether were placed in the caravan safely, in comfortable positions.

Closing Stats
Journey Stops: 2/12 ... Progress to next stop: 2/6 ... Supplies: 31 ... Rations: 53 ... Trade Goods: 5

Jaguar is Level 5 and becomes a Guide.
Purplestar fainted and, due to the fatebond, she took Moon with her. They become unusable until next stop, which means I can't use them in rolls, pulls and I can't use their specific job's powers.
I know normally leaders are meant to be immune to death in coliseum, but with the rules of 'the og three don't die ever', I think it's fair for this rule to change here.

Purplestar's wound left by Flying Fawn healed very quickly, and thus they bore no wounds anymore, which was at least a little comforting. What wasn't, though, was a group of dragons approaching their caravan, as they were traveling through the Wandering Contagion. Cheeto took the leader's mantle, since Dallas, Jaguar and Shade voted for, with only Junior potentially opposing, and thus she ordered them to keep moving towards the Plague-Wind border. But they weren't fast enough, at least not against dragons born and raised on Scarred Wasteland, and thus soon enough the unknown group closed in on them. Once they got close enough, and she realized they were all Mirrors, she told Jaguar to remain in the back of the caravan with Shade, while she, Dallas and Junior went up front, to deal with the imminent danger. There were four of them, with similar markings but different colors ([url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=77&bodygene=6&breed=3&element=2&eyetype=1&gender=0&tert=161&tertgene=5&winggene=7&wings=88&auth=1d9caa8a15346f56bcd95d493b754c068020cacd&dummyext=prev.png]Harrower (brown)[/url], [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=83&bodygene=6&breed=3&element=2&eyetype=1&gender=0&tert=75&tertgene=5&winggene=7&wings=133&auth=4938a509172f97343af0645357d76b1e5c93d93a&dummyext=prev.png]Fatel (orange)[/url], [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=129&bodygene=6&breed=3&element=2&eyetype=1&gender=0&tert=53&tertgene=5&winggene=7&wings=140&auth=d95d4391cc3e49743c3b7f3c3495800369166e68&dummyext=prev.png]Isce (gray)[/url] and [url=https://www1.flightrising.com/dgen/preview/dragon?age=1&body=63&bodygene=6&breed=3&element=2&eyetype=1&gender=0&tert=133&tertgene=5&winggene=7&wings=62&auth=0db90c4af872b5250632751d7942ff7c11ba0830&dummyext=prev.png]Aeri (red)[/url]). The most red one was in the lead, presumably the 'leader' of the group, with gray-ish one right behind them. They didn't had any weapons or wore anything, but still looked menacing and strong. They couldn't possibly beat them in a fair fight, Cheeto realized. Eventually the Mirrors reached the caravan, with the red one signalling his group to stop. Whether they planned it or not, they had surrounded the caravan, making it near impossible to move forward without moving through them. In response, Skydancer exit the carriage, along with Junior and Dallas. The Aether was nervous, while Aberration mildly curious - and the pack didn't expect to see one, and eyed them up and down. "Who are you and why are you interrupting our journey?" she questioned, keeping her posture straight, despite the Mirrors clear hostility. The orange Mirror snapped his jaws at her, before being lightly whipped by brown one's tail. The red one stepped forward, squaring up. "Our herd-leader demands you hand over the blue Mirror your group harbors." "Why?" Dallas asked, baffled. They didn't realize yet the gravity of the situation, despite the opposing dragons glaring at them. "What did she do?" "What-?" the orange Mirror snapped back, before being silenced again. And the gray one spoke up. "Its mother betrayed us and broke herd's rules. The hatchling was born as a result, and it wasn't meant to slip away. It was a mistake our leader demands on fixing." "Its birth was a mistake too. A blemish on our herd's history." the red dragon hissed in disgust. "Hand it over and we might spare you." "But why?" Dallas asked again, making the brown Mirror roll his four eyes. They were getting really irritated, which actually worried Cheeto. "Dallas, shut up-" she hissed, but Junior silenced her with one of his tails. "No, let them speak." "We aren't Mirrors or a herd, and her mother didn't betray us." the Aether seemed unaware of their short exchange, or the fact the orange Mirror was baring their teeth at them. "And why would she be punished for that? She didn't do anything! All she did was being born and it's not a crime. You can't punish her for something she didn't even do-" Their speech was interrupted by the orange Mirror lunging at them, jaws snapping at their throat. Dallas yelled as they fell back, kicking the Mirror in the stomach, and thus the brawl commenced. Cheeto struggled to maintain the distance to consistently cast spells, while Dallas struggled in general, due to how chaotic Aether battle style was. Junior, on the other hand, was going relatively well, wrestling two Mirrors alone, each head snapping at the closest one. His size was definitely a huge help at keeping the Mirrors down, eventually tossing the brown one aside and fully focused on their leader. The Aberration pinned the red Mirror to the ground, holding him down with both talons. The dragon struggled and snapped at them, with no avail. Junior then looked at the remaining Mirrors, that all paused upon seeing their 'leader' down. "Well?" his left head asked, and then the right one clicked his tongue. "Will you leave now?" "Never!" the Mirror spat back defiantly, kicking the Aberration, who acted like they didn't even felt that. "Well, you asked for this." Junior said plainly, before swooping down at the dragon's neck, grabbing it firmly with his left head's jaws. The Mirror gasped and began struggling even more, and before their herd-mates could even think of aiding them, a loud snap filled the air. For a moment no one moved, and the red Mirror went instantly still as well. Only then Junior let it go, and looked at the remaining three. The gray one stared at them and the body, before snarling. But instead of leaping into the fight again, they turned and ran in opposite direction. Cheeto breathed out, not even realizing she was holding her breath. Her whole body throbbed with pain, from the brawl, and now.. they had to deal with that. "Bury them somewhere." she waved at the dead Mirror, and Aberration tilted his head. "Don't look at me like that. We are not leaving them like that to be desecrated. We aren't savages." Junior seemed unimpressed but didn't argue, as they took the body to the side and began digging in the rough ground. All while Dallas was sitting on the ground, breathing heavily. They also were hurt, but Cheeto could tell the encounter didn't scar them only physically, but mentally as well.

Shade still clung to the hope they will find their parents, but.. after what happened last day, they started having doubts. But back to the group. Cheeto was smart if a bit strict. Jaguar doesn't talk, but she is still very expressive and fun to be around. Junior was.. definitely a wildcard, a scary one after that ambush. The remaining three Aethers.. Purplestar was nice and kind to them, Moon was entertaining and Dallas was overall optimistic. Maybe too optimistic. They heard Junior call Purplestar naive, and Shade could see what he meant, though. They might been a young hatchling when they were separated from their parents, but they knew the world wasn't the kindest. And after yesterday, Dallas learned it the hardest way. Junior took them and Jaguar on a hunt, leaving Cheeto to deal with the healer, who.. really looked like they had better days. They barely slept and ate, nervously staring in the distance - and on top of that, they refused to look Junior in the eye. They really took that death badly, but Shade thought Aberration did the right thing - or else the Mirror group could had killed them instead. It wasn't murder. Junior was protecting them, and most importantly, gave the group the option to leave. But at the very least they to the border, and the fresh air along with change of place boosted their morale. Well, for the most part. Purplestar and Moon hadn't woke up yet, and Dallas was still nervous, but at least Jaguar looked calmer. Shade could work with that.

This group was truly bizarre. Shade still clung to the hope they will find their parents, but.. after what happened last day, they started having doubts.
But back to the group. Cheeto was smart if a bit strict. Jaguar doesn't talk, but she is still very expressive and fun to be around. Junior was.. definitely a wildcard, a scary one after that ambush. The remaining three Aethers.. Purplestar was nice and kind to them, Moon was entertaining and Dallas was overall optimistic. Maybe too optimistic.
They heard Junior call Purplestar naive, and Shade could see what he meant, though. They might been a young hatchling when they were separated from their parents, but they knew the world wasn't the kindest. And after yesterday, Dallas learned it the hardest way.

Junior took them and Jaguar on a hunt, leaving Cheeto to deal with the healer, who.. really looked like they had better days. They barely slept and ate, nervously staring in the distance - and on top of that, they refused to look Junior in the eye. They really took that death badly, but Shade thought Aberration did the right thing - or else the Mirror group could had killed them instead. It wasn't murder. Junior was protecting them, and most importantly, gave the group the option to leave.
But at the very least they to the border, and the fresh air along with change of place boosted their morale. Well, for the most part. Purplestar and Moon hadn't woke up yet, and Dallas was still nervous, but at least Jaguar looked calmer. Shade could work with that.

But their awakening still boosted their morale, which they desperately needed. Dallas was also feeling better, but Junior's insistence on taking the lead was unnerving. They proved themselves to be cunning and smart, but also rather ruthless. Cheeto was unsubtle watching them, in case they start something, that would put them all in danger. She knew she wouldn't be able to take them down in a fight, if that ever came to it, so the most she could do was take the lead herself, until Purplestar feels better. And she hoped it will happen soon, because by the time they reached Singer's Brook, they were faced with a problem unlike before - BeastClans. They stopped the caravan for the day and finished setting up tents, when Jaguar suddenly froze and looked towards the hills surrounding them. The Mirror was really alert to sounds and thus Cheeto had good reasons so suspect an ambush. And indeed, a few moments later, a group of Harpies appeared over the hill, and then descended on them. But despite bearing weapons, they didn't went to attack instantly - instead, the flock stopped shortly before their camp, with a tall one holding a spear taking the lead. They also went in front of the caravan, with Dallas and Jaguar being more behind, and Junior trying to push to the front, but Cheeto beat them to it. "In the name of my clan, I ask what is your group doing here?" the leading Harpy asked, leaning on her spear, but showing clearly that it's not just for show. "We are traveling to the Aergate. We don't intend on staying here for too long, probably until next morning." Cheeto explained in the name of her own group. At least she hoped they won't stay there for too long, and move to more stable ground, than a moist ground surrounded by streams. "We mean no harm." The flock eyed them suspiciously, and one Harpy muttered something to their 'leader', who dismissed them before addressing the group again. "As the matriarch of the clan, I ask you to move your camp somewhere else. We were recently attacked by few long-legged dragons and any further presence causes distress to our fledgling-mothers." Cheeto's jaw tightened at the news. Even though it didn't seem like the flock was attacked by Mirrors, and by Wildclaws instead, but she could understand their wariness. Especially when newborns were involved. But before she could agree, Aberration pushed forward, showing her to the side. "No." his left head hissed, glaring at the Harpy, who clutched the spear tightly, before rising it for defense. Her flockmates prepped their own weapons too. Before the fight could escalate, Skydancer got back on her feet with Shade's help, who growled at Junior. "We are sta-" "Shut up." Skydancer snapped, stepping between him and the Harpy. The Aberration paused, looking down at her, somewhat surprised. "You don't get to decide what or what not we are doing, Junior." "We don't need to submit to demands of some bird-brains." he argued, with his left head sneering at the flock, who still looked tense and ready to fight. He seemed very amused by it, and it made Cheeto's blood boil more. "Also, you aren't the leader. And the current one isn't available, so-" "'So.' shut up. You aren't the leader either." she stepped fully in front of him, flaring her wings up, to add herself more height. She was unfortunately on the shorter and thinner side, much more so compared to an Aberration, but she refused to show it. "And you need to stop insisting on being one, before your idiocy kills us! We don't need problems with BeastClans, if we can help it! Nor do we need to start fights with anything that moves!" To her relief, Shade and Jaguar took her side, moving behind her, and there was no need to convince Dallas - they already made their decision, and stayed close to the caravan. Mirror didn't like conflict, as she already showed, but she was willing to fight Junior if needed. The flock stared at them for a moment, before looking at each other. Their leader looked pretty confused, but also convinced that they (well, most of them) didn't actually want to start a fight. They did agree to relocating their caravan, despite Junior's insistence that they don't need to. But the Aberration was ultimately outmatched, and backed away, sitting down, but still giving them displeased look. "Alright. I don't know or care what is happening in your little herd." the harpy said, after giving her flock a sign to step back. They seemed to relax, at least a little, and Cheeto breathed out in relief, after putting her own wings down. "But if we can move along without shedding blood, it would be most appreciated. Stress is bad for our fledglings, so all we ask you to do is to move the camp a bit further. That's all." "That's not a problem." she said in return, and to show they are genuine, Jaguar and Dallas started dismantling their tents, and putting them back in the caravan. Harpy watched them, before giving most of her companions a sign, and they turned and flew away, probably to inform the remaining clanmates about the situation. She kept only two other warriors with her, as if just in case. But Junior begrudgingly joined, and together they dismantled the camp. "Good to know there are still honorable dragons." she hummed, nodding at Cheeto. "All's forgiven, Wind dragon." Cheeto wanted to correct the Harpy that she wasn't a Wind dragon, but.. well, she was Skydancer, so it wasn't that incorrect. With that, the remaining Harpies fled away, just as they got the caravan moving further towards the Singer's Brook border.
