Kento's wings opened and he pointed at the membrane between the main part. Unlike Esse's his were a blue colour with the part he was pointing to being lighter than the sturdier section. "See this? Zan tried once. Only once. He failed and tore his wing up to shreds. It healed up but he never tried again."
"Poor guy..." Essetai said. Her eyes shifted to their sorrow colour and she sighed. "He's got a scar across it. Unlike ours he has full grey wings." She opened her own just to stretch them. "Western dragon traits carry better through families."

"Really, I'm so sorry. " Des said, is voice no longer in a laughing tone. " What caused him to fail, didn't he have an instructor?"

"His dad was trying to teach him but it didn't quite work out as well as he'd hoped. Zan's a nervous kid, shy and quiet even if he is sweet. He never felt the confidence again. That's around the time he started acting like he does... more to himself than outgoing. I think it messed with his mind a little." Kento replied.
Essetai hissed. "Hey, he's fine okay? It did not 'mess with his mind'. He just lost his faith in it and never tried again. You can't say you wouldn't do the same, Kento. After all neither of us would know. We can't even try it."
"Maybe."

Hiko took off and flew once round the travellers, landing behind them and then trotting quickly to catch up.
"Zan... He's your friend? Maybe I could try and teach him. To repay you. Are his wings a very different build?"

Esse nodded. "Yes Hiko, he's our friend. Best friend in fact... His wings are like ours but bigger so no not really a very different build from even your feathered ones. The issue is going to be-"
"The issue is going to be convincing the stubborn little bugger." Kento interrupted with a huff. "It's near impossible."

Des laughed and gave a mischievious grin. " Just leave convincing up to me. By the time I'm done he won't be want to be out of the air." He said, hair crackling joyfully. "Maybe helping him fly is a way I can pay for forging lessons. Just one thing though, you were a little defensive of Zan Esse. You sure he's just your best friend?" Des added an implying tone to the last part.

Hiko moved towards Esse quicky. Leave her alone he said defensively.

She put her hand on Hiko softly. "Don't worry about it..." Esse blushed red, she looked away to hide both that and her eyes since they would of course change colour as well. "Yes he's just my best friend Desumo. Now shut up."
Kento smirked and shook his head mouthing, 'aww how cute' to Desumo. He couldn't help but tease her as well. After all what was a friend for if not messing with another friend?

Hiko relaxed slightly at Esse's words, but still walked beside her as they moved on.
The woods around them crackled and moved as creatures passed through the branches. The sunlight that just made it through the thick canopy was beginning to fade.

Des gave a small chuckle. "So what color you think her eyes are Kento" He said. Des looked around at the fading light. "Crap, either the trees are getting thick or night's falling. Who's up for making camp?"

Kento smirked. "Bright grey-blue if the years have taught me anything. Isn't that right Essetai?"
"Oh shut up. I know your embarrassment colour too Kento! Mr emerald green!" she snapped back. She still didn't look in an attempt to hide her blush. She took a glance over to Desumo. "Camp sounds good. It is getting dark despite the lack of trees."

Emerald green is a pretty colour. I imagine it would suit you Kento. Hiko laughed softly. He looked at the darkening sky, worried. Night is falling, perhaps we should set up camp.

"Ok, then it's settled, we make camp." Des said. " We should divide chores. Who wants what? Or should we draw straws or something like that?"

"I can go find wood. I'm cool with that." Kento suggested. "Though if that's my job I'd better go fast. Mind if I take Kaerisa with me? Dragons have awesome night vision if the legends are true."
"Dragons are just amazing in general, Kento." Essetai said with a grin.
