Silvertree Chronicles Bk. 01 Ch. 29

We had a few other Knights from our dwarven friends with us on the mission. A couple of sappers and clerics. The sappers did not get to do what we wanted but were able to aid in getting to the device holding the teleport blocker. Oh, I almost forgot when I went forward to let them know about the device.

The Draco-lich turned on me and tried to roast me. I am immune to fire damage thanks to my sword. Apparently, all dragons can hear psionic communication; even undead dragons. The fact that we knew where the teleport blocker was located and he knew who I was kind of pissed him off after all of the trouble I caused him. It allowed the 6 dragons on him to tear his first body apart."

Tranosa looked at Eldar, "How many bodies did it have?"

Eldar smiled, "12 that it could occupy. That was where the other 18 dragons went. They were working through the traps and ward on the way to them. They then started disintegrating them. When it died, they knew which alcove it was in. They walled it in with a wall of force until they were finished with the other bodies.

Then they ripped that one body apart with 18 of them. They found the phylactery and destroyed it. They were also impressed with my wall of force idea. That distraction I gave on the Draco-lich saved one of the Silver Dragons from being killed. I found this out later."

Tranosa laughed at him and shook his head. Eldar looked at him, "I think you would be a great commander you could take over for Charlemagne. Take care of what she does if she is away."

He stopped laughing, "You are kidding me right?"

Eldar shook his head, "I like your sense of humor. She is off seeing Greentree at the moment. I am thinking of Blaze to eventually replace me as the front-line commander. It solves a couple of restrictions the Queen placed on his travel after I made him a Knight. That idea caught her by surprise, but I told her it would keep him local."

Tranosa sighed, "What would it involve?"

Eldar looked at him, "You can talk with Charlemagne on that later, but most of it is what you have already been doing here minus having to assign patrols as that would fall to me or Captain Blaze. For those that do not know Blaze is one of the Queen's nephews and was knighted by the Queen as well."

They all looked at Blaze and he rolled his eyes, "I went off on my own and my family was not happy that I did. I was doing caravan protection just like you guys were. Heard what you were doing and thought it was worth checking out. He hired me before he found out about my royal connection."

That got a few chuckles. Hunter looked at Eldar, "Guess his premonition stuff was not working for that one."

Eldar shook his head, "It worked, it told me he would be a good leader."

That got a few nods and some giggles. "Anyway, this is the untold story to go with what I told the Elders."

Cook looked at him, "This explains a lot of what has been going on and why you have been all over the map. Thanks for letting us know. What was it like coming face to face with a Draco-lich and Dragons?"

Eldar shrugged, "I only faced the one breath weapon but that battle looked pretty intense for the dragons. Bone breaking for the Draco-lich."

He got a few groans for that comment but it gave them time to eat as they thought over the news he laid upon them. He went over and unlocked the door.

It opens as one the new Lieutenant fell through. Eldar looked at him as he hit the floor. Then he looked over at Tranosa, "This fish on the floor, one of yours?"

That got a few chuckles. Eldar extended him a hand and helped the Lieutenant to his feet, "Something wrong?"

He nodded, "We have been knocking on this door for almost an hour with no answer. We thought there was a problem inside. I came to give my status report on the troops to Captain Dusk Moon."

Eldar nodded, "If the door is locked the house is silenced then there is a reason and you will just have to wait. I will leave you to talk. I am going to check on my apprentices."

He walked through the door and enjoyed the moment of relative silence as he approached his apprentices' home. He walked in as Moon Ray was getting up. Strong Oak appears to still be writing. Eldar looked at what he was doing.

He was being very careful in his penmanship as it appeared, from the above section, he tried to copy the text down to the smallest detail. He looked at Moon Ray's book and she has all the details but it was in her obvious handwriting.

He saw he was almost finished so he let him complete before he talked with them. He pulled out his spellbook and showed that same spell to them, "This is the same spell and I want to know what you see that is different."

Moon Ray read it and Strong Oak examined the print.

Apprentice Moon Ray looked up, "It is the same spell, Grand Master."

Apprentice Strong Oak looks up, "But it is not printed the same, Grand Master."

Eldar nodded, "You are both correct. The idea is not to make an exact copy of the print. Instead, get the spell into a readable and intelligible style. No two spellbooks from a wizard should ever be the same. The spellbook you had before was done by a scribe."

He flipped to a different spell, "What can you tell me of this spell?" They looked at the jumble of letters and symbols and he watched their faces. Until Strong Oak states the obvious, "It says it is a mirror image spell but the text looks garbled, Grand Master."

Eldar nodded, "The mirror image spell in my spellbook some would call it more powerful while others would call it riskier. My mirror image spell is not taught by the Academy books and you will not find it in a standard spellbook. Unless it is really old." He stopped and waved his fingers over the page as he thought and he turned it back so they could read the text. He looked at them.

"Wizards are particularly secretive on some of the rarer spells. They use ciphers to cover over the text. The cipher can eventually be broken but it prevents the casual viewing of spells. I have several spells that are ciphered. The ciphering process is a cantrip you will learn and this version of the mirror image spell is one you will add to your spellbooks.

I expect to always see it coded if I ask for your spellbooks. The cipher you use will be your own. I know one wizard who found a way to do a fireball with earth instead of fire. Where fire will burn combustibles like wood the sandstorm could blind a target for a time while ripping their skin off. He would not reveal how he did it and he kept his book closely guarded and warded.

That spell was lost to him because of the ward. He used a fireward instead of a paralyzing ward and the room was filled with papers and the book burned up in the ensuing fire. He was a researching wizard and did not carry his research into his traveling spellbook. His mistake."

They giggled and nodded. Moon Ray looked at him, "So the lesson here is to always keep a backup of your spells somewhere safe, Grand Master?"

Eldar smiled, "Points to you. I have a book of rare spells I keep separate and then I have those spells I carry in my traveling spellbook. In my case, I can store them in a couple of different extradimensional spaces as well as being encrypted and warded. Capturing a wizard's spellbook can be a trove of new knowledge, or in some cases, pages are a glyph that when read sets them off. Be prepared. Now, off to bed."

He got a response in unison, "Yes, Grand Master."

Then they shot off upstairs to their rooms. He returned home to find a mostly empty house. He saw Tiger and Silver Moon and looked at them, "Silver Moon you will teleport out and back every day for the next few days as Charlemagne sets the schedule. You know several places in which to do that, teach others that spell.

I would pick one spot at House Silvertree to speed things along. As we will be out of town for the next week, at least, you can borrow our room. Tonight, you can lay your bedrolls out down here or you can use one of the few wagons sitting outside.

I have requested carpenters to come in and assess and fix the Moon Ray home while I am gone, so keep an eye on that. Let them know I am not concerned with the cost, just the quality of the work."

Silver Moon looks at Eldar, "You are not going to tell everyone what you saw?"

Eldar shook his head, "Though I found that position unusual."

Tiger smiled, "You need a copy of this?"

He held up a book, and while he could not read the language the pictures were quite detailed and graphic. Eldar looked at him, "I have Charlemagne making copies of another book for me. I could have her make up 20-30 of these for our officers. Share the knowledge so they are not asking for demonstrations."

Tiger nodded, "We will be good without it for a while if you want to make copies."

Eldar smiled, "It will be translated of course as I am sure the text is just as erotic. Does Keyno have a copy of this?"

Tiger shrugged, "I do not know. She may, but I doubt it."

Eldar nodded, "You will make sure she gets it as a late wedding gift from us."

Tiger smiled, "That will embarrass her getting it from me."

Eldar looked at Silver Moon, "Not so much if she got it from you."

She smirked, "Understood. I will see that she gets it."

Eldar nodded, "I will have Charlemagne distribute the other copies, including one to my father and Jarron."

They both laughed at him as he headed upstairs with the book in hand. Charlemagne had already stripped and crawled into bed. Eldar looked at her, "Do you remember the last time it was just the two of us in bed together?"

Charlemange smiled, "You are right we do have that agreement; you spent the last solo night with Annette. I am still a little sore so what do you have in mind?"

Eldar smiled, "Tiger showed me this book, and I want you to add it to the copy list. It will have to be translated but it has some interesting ideas. I want 30 of those and one is a gift to the Queen."

He tossed her the book and while she starts flipping through it, he got undressed and slid over to her in the bed.

She smiled, "I cannot read it but the pictures are inspiring, but let us limit it to 2 tonight.

He nodded as she grabs him by the cock and sucks it into her mouth. He grabbed her waist and pulled her pussy to his face. The book has done its job as she was already dripping. He stayed away from her clit for now just stabbing his tongue in as far as he could. He licked slowly this causes her to slow down as they slowly work each other up. He massaged her back and her ass while her tits rubbed against his stomach.

Her hands ran up and down his thighs. He brought his hand over her ass and slid a couple of fingers into her pussy. She decides to speed up the action and sucked it in hard as she shoves a finger into his nether-hole to bring him off first.

He moaned into her pussy as his seed went into her mouth. She spent a few minutes cleaning him up and he had still avoided her clit.

She was tired of it as she slid her clit into his mouth. He massaged her slit with his tongue still he avoided her clit which had her gyrating as she tried to find his tongue. He shoved two soaked fingers into her nether-hole and attacked the clit at the same time. She started to shutter and then moaned a long release followed by, "You are such a fucking tease at times."

Eldar smiled at her as she got off of his face, "Glad to see you still have some patience."

She came down and kisses him. She sighed, "Yes I have lost some of my patience. Especially with the long absences."

Eldar nodded at her, "Well you will have Annette to play with when she gets back, it is rare for me to get either of you alone."

He grabbed the book. He flipped to the page that showed what Tiger and Silver Moon were doing. He looked at her, "Why don't we start with this one. You can tell me if the others are going to like this book."

She looks at it, "Looks like it will be hard on your legs and back but I am willing."

He sat up next to her and pulled her head up to suck his cock hard again. It did not take long. He stood and grabbed her legs. He moved her to the middle of the bed. He took her ankles and handed them to her so she could hold them. He stole a kiss along the way. He then stood with one leg beside her and the other behind her.

He lined up his cock into her and managed to physically go in sideways for a change. He crouched over her. He slid down and got deeper than he thought possible and she noticed. He looked at her and she nodded and he started slow driving up and down. She found a few new sounds as he slowly picked up the pace until he pounded into her pussy.

She clenches up again and again as he bottomed out on her cervix. She moaned out another one and he sped up faster as she stayed clenched. He slammed down and delivered his seed deep into her pussy.

She releases the leg in front of him. He stood and pulled out of her. She sighed as he withdrew. He remained standing for a second before he moved to lay down on her left side. He looked at her, "How well do you think the book will be received?"

She looked at him, "I think we will need more copies of that one."

Eldar chuckled and curled up with her. They just held each other to go to sleep. They knew that tomorrow they would be separated for a while. They were asleep in no time.

Annette was startled when Amy Tryst jumped away quickly as her potion ended. She looked over, "My apologies. The shortening of the briefing should have given us more time, but your husband threw a few surprises that delayed our return. I did not want to hurt you when I changed back."

Annette smiled, "You are a beautiful dragon. I like your coloring. Is this where we will be staying?"

Amy thought to her, "No Gather to me."

Annette moved over. Another Dragon, a Crystal Dragon moved on top of her and did a psionic version of a teleportation circle He looked over after getting down and thought to Annette. "It has an area of effect and we wanted you to get here in totality."

Anette thought, "Noted. Psionics can do this?"

He thought back, "Draconic mythic Psionics. I am the Crystal King. Not many know that ability. Many know how to do it themselves. You will be getting evaluated by two psionic Dragons here. One a master and one who has just come of age to begin teaching others. A distant grandchild of mine."

Another smaller Crystal Dragon came in and thought to her, "We are going to evaluate your mind, try and learn what you can do. You will learn much from us in this exchange. This first part will take 7-10 days.

Your mind will be connected with both of us during this time. As you are the first student I will be working with I need you to give me a name that you would be allowed to call me. There is a high degree of trust in doing this.

Part of that is there are secrets you may learn that belong to the Dragons. We will shield much of that from you until we gain each other's trust. What we do here, how we do it cannot be discussed with your family. What you learn you can discuss with them.

We do a lot of this to ensure your mind is organized and to protect your sanity as we help you catalog and learn what abilities you have. Which ones you cannot tap into. This is something you must agree to of your own accord.

Before we begin as this should not be interrupted except for sleep, mediation, and taking care of bodily functions such as eating or needing to use the bathroom. We will review your life from the beginning until now, then again when you return to learn more, and more will be revealed to you."

Annette, "How does that work on having an open and honest relationship with my husband and my sister?"

Amy responded, "We can put blocks in place, remove them for training and replace them. You would not remember those things at that point to discuss them. As the Master of the Mind, this is something I could do for you."

Anette responded, "You can do that for traumatic events as well?"

The Crystal Dragon thought back, "We would, to protect your sanity."

She looked at the Young Adult Crystal Dragon, "Then, that is your name from me. Sanity. I will agree."

Sanity thought back, "A strong psion mind name. I like it very much and will honor it as it will be used by all of my future students, including your unborn son when the time is right."

They used rings of standard polymorphy and changed into human form and with her holding hands in the shape of a triangle. Amy started from birth and left everything alone until she found where she had been raped and both dragons felt for her. She installed blocks on those memories. She knew it happened, but did not remember all of the horrifying details.

Amy thought to her, "That block will leave a small scar and not the horrors you endured. I am sorry that happened to you. The fallout of your father I am putting softer blocks in place so you will forgive him eventually. That will heal those. Not everything he did to the attacker."

Annette thought back as she had tears in her eyes from reliving it. "Thank you. I am feeling that now. Will I remember you did this?"

Amy thought, "When we finish, you will not remember it as this file if you will be blocked as well."

Both dragons got aroused by her sex life and Annette was slightly embarrassed until Amy shared some of hers with her including with Lady Silver Hair.

Amy thought back, "Females are more bisexual in Dragons. Almost all of them are. Breeding is for procreation. We live vicariously through our students as well."

Sanity sent her some of his with his mate and Annette thought back, "Wow. You remind me of Eldar as he can get aggressive."

They continued until they hit the vault and both Dragons saw that amulet. They were all shocked to hear another voice as the amulet attached to Eldar.

Especially Annette as Sartior entered the conversation, "Do not be alarmed, I am Sartior, God of the Gemstone Dragons. The necklace will be reflected in your memory Annette as a Draconic version of a major health amulet. To Amy Tryst, I like that nickname from Eldar by the way Annette. Sadly you will not remember this fact or our conversation.

I am especially proud of the name you gave Sanity, he will reinforce that in the years to come that he really likes that name. The item in question was a Dragon relic for a champion I never fielded, it was built but not destined to go to a Dragon champion but to another champion, a human one had been the original plan back in the 1st Age. That changed in the 5th Age.

This information will be blocked from you and segregated in both Dragons. I am communicating with Amy Tryst who is my Hero in this world, and not a champion. Sanity will replace her one day. The amulet provides those functions and there is more.

As the Elven Gods, the Lady of Dreams, in this case, are listening in to this conversation and they are the ones I am talking to through this loophole. I will say it will impact the ladies he has made love with unborn children, including the Elven Queen when he visits her again.

They just have not got that far yet and not in a bad way. It won't affect their Bloodlines. It will give those first children only additional clarity in life. Wisdom if you will and nothing more for them or beyond them, except in will carry forward in Annettee's son as he is more intimate with her.

To appease your Elven Gods, those facts will be blocked in my followers when they are done fixing her mind of the trauma she has had and it is organized better. Eldar has an open connection to me and some premonitions he received created that flood of activity you saw Annette.
