Chapter 5
"You said that there are no absolutes, correct?" Seth asked. The dragon nodded, so Seth continued, "Then I have just one question: are you absolutely sure there are no absolutes?"The dragon blinked several times, opened its mouth to respond then closed it again. The dragon then cocked its head to one side for a few moments, opened its mouth to answer, and then closed it again."Here's the problem," Seth said. "Saying there are no absolutes is an absolute statement. Even if you were right, you would be wrong because you are contradicting yourself."The dragon rested its head on it forelegs for several minutes before responding. "Well done boy, though perhaps I should not call you boy anymore. Very well, take the wood elf and go. I should like you to come back though. I might enjoy conversing on this topic further."

"What's a solar system?" Ale asked, and then glanced back into the cave. "Perhaps we should find a safer place to have this chat. Perhaps my house? It's only a couple of miles away and dinner is the least I can offer for the dragon that saved my life.""Sounds good, please lead on," Seth said, noticing for the first time that he was actually quite hungry. Ale started walking and he dropped to all fours to walk beside her. His head was now about level with her hips."So where are you from?" she asked."I'm from earth.""You came from... the ground?" Ale gave him another confused look."No, I mean I'm from another planet. I think.""What's a planet?"

"Dragons don't draw magic directly from the Ether like most living things," she said. "Instead, when they're around gold they make it resonate and--""Ale!" A slightly squeaky voice shouted from outside.Ale moved so fast that Seth wasn't even aware she'd moved until she was halfway across the room. She grabbed her bow and whipped around toward the door. Seth got up and peeked out into the darkening sky. The white-haired man from Drousin's cave was outside sitting on a horse. He was flanked by two others wearing long dark robes. Something about them made the scales on Seth's neck stand up."What do you want, Hermair?" Ale appeared right beside Seth at the door, but didn't leave the house. She had an arrow nocked on the bow, but it was pointing at the ground. She was ready, but not threatening"I want that abomination," called the

The soldiers seemed to have recovered and turned to face the new threat."Run Seth!" He heard Ale shout.Seth saw half a dozen bows pointing in his direction and ran for cover behind the burning house. Halfway there he felt a burning pain in his hind leg and fell forward. He rolled several times, which fortunately put the burning house in between him and the archers.He looked down at his leg and saw a broken arrow sticking out of his thigh. The arrow had punched right through his scales and made moving the leg feel like he was stabbing himself with a branding iron. Fortunately though, it didn't seem to have hit the bone and he could still move.Seth dragged himself to h

"Good," Ale said. "That was the easy part. Mana responds to your willpower more than anything else. Now, try to move it around with your mind."Seth did, but it didn't seem to be paying attention. It reminded him of an ice slushy or a cloud. It was lumpy and when he tried to touch it parted before him and closed up behind."It won't budge.""It usually takes years of practice," Ale noted. "Normally I'd say you were screwed, but you're a dragon. A dragon's command of magic is far more instinctive than other creatures. Give it a try and go with your gut."Seth hurled all his willpower at the slushy mana cloud, but it barely moved. After several minutes of trying, he still hadn't moved any part of it."Yeah, it's not paying attention," Seth sighed."Are you trying to move the whole thing, or just part of i

'It's okay, he's okay,' she thought. 'The solders haven't got this far yet and nothing in the woods would attack a dragon, even a younger dragon like Seth.'Ale walked to the closest tree, again looking for footprints, but couldn't find any there either. Her stomach started tying itself up in knots. What if something had happened to him?She was about to start biting her nails when something brushed the back of her shoulder. She whipped around just in time to see Seth's tail lift up out of sight. She looked up and there he was, sitting there with a mischievous grin on his face. She was also pleased to see he had finished closing his wounds, although he looked like death warmed over."Are you done playing?" Ale asked.Seth nodded and hopped down from the tree. "Where to next? I'm wiped out.""I know a place nearby

"Me neither." Seth said. "Well, how about the immediate future? Have any good ideas where to go?""Gralden.""Gesundheit.""Where's that?" Ale asked. "Is it closer?"He suppressed a chuckle. "I'm being silly. What's Gralden?""It's a city, and home to one of the largest banks in the entire land. It's a three day walk from here, but most of that is over open road. We're only about a few hours' walk from the edge of the forest.""I don't fancy our chances out in the open," he said. "Any other options?""Not without a map," she replied. "How's your mana?"Seth closed his eyes to check. He had used up most of his slushy mana cloud

"No, I really enjoy talking with you," he said. "It's just I'm not used to opening up to people very quickly. In my world, people tend to talk about little unimportant things for a while before diving into the deeper stuff.""Why would they do that?" she frowned. "I mean, if it's not important why would you bother talking about it?"He opened his mouth to reply, and then stopped. "You know that's a good point.""I'm sorry if I seem pushy," she apologized. "It's just my parents are... Well they aren't around anymore and I don't get to talk to people very often. That's probably part of the reason I started talking to Drousin; there wasn't anyone else around.""Makes sense.""So what do you like to do for fun?" she repeated. Seth hesitated, and that's when Ale came up with a truly devious plan."How about this?

Ale did some quick calculations and didn't like the odds. They were about two minutes from the edge of the forest and the wide open plains beyond. They couldn't go back because the soldiers were spread out to prevent just that. She briefly considered climbing the trees, but another glance back showed that at least one of the soldiers had a bow and they would be sitting ducks.Of course, they would be sitting ducks on the plains anyway."Any bright ideas?" Seth asked."No, I think we're in big..." Ale trailed off when she saw the wings on Seth's back. "Can you fly?"He grimaced. "I'm not sure now's the best time to find out."She looked ahead. She could see the
