Boreal snorted in dismay as the rock went flying and plopped into the water. A low croon emerged from the big dragonling as she dropped her head to rest on her foreclaws, giving Fangorn the saddest eyes at his disappointment.
"Hm? Neron?" Drawn from the sweet daydream of driving his admittedly not very impressive fist right into the ex-Warden's nose, Tal gave a rueful snort (sounding a lot like his dragon). "Fucker showed up a few years back and got Lady Deepfrost to build him a fancy Palace and set him up as Warden of Halo. Except then he turned around and betrayed her, so she sent her cultists to attack the Citadel." His jaw clenched for a moment but then smoothed over as he stared into the frothy waters between his knees. "He didn't die, but a lot of other good people did. My dad was one of the Shields defending the gate that nigh--."
He broke off, blinking, and reached up to rub his eyes, looking sharply around the cavern. "Uh..." What the hail had that vision been? "Did you s--nn. Never mind." Maybe it was something in the water? "Anyways, guess he cheated on the Pale Lady with the Voice, so now he's an Ascended." Cue the return of the scowl.
