Wilson didn't leave the base much sure he left if asked to go do something, he left if he was requested to help bring supplies to the underground people. It was just how things went. He was...used to being hidden away, kept within locked doors and trapped within the area of the building. Rubbing his hands together as he paced about his thoughts ran away from him as they always did. His mind was always full of thoughts, his constant questioning of himself and why he was here were just one of the subjects running amuck there. If he ever bonded with a dragon they would no doubt be crowded in his mind. Everything was just rattling around in there and it was hardly ever not. Sure when he was asleep it was but when awake...hm...hard to say if his mind ever was blank.
He passed people by and probably more than once. He kept away from the exists of any sort so really he just looked odd. Though he'd been here for five years and it might be a common sight to those that understood what was wrong with him; in a sense what was wrong. Though it was still odd.

Elin enjoyed walking through the trees. It was one of her favorite things to do. The trees gave peace to her constantly changing thoughts. Elysium was really that for her. Where are you going, Elin? Ryagin's thoughts sounded in her mind. She smirked at his teasing tone. Wouldn't you like to know. She retorted. His laugh resonated through her. There is a meeting of the captains tonight. If you aren't there I'll have to talk to them, and you know how much I like that. His sarcasm was almost tangible. I will... Her thoughts trailed away, a leaf gaining her attention. But she did turn around, heading back for the compound. She opened the gate, not bother for someone else to hold it for her. Her hair rested on her long sword at her hip, as usual. She steeled herself for contact with other people, but her attention wandered again, this time focusing on a young man who wore pieced together clothing. She recognized him, someone had vouched for him when they brought him here. She frowned as she thought, trying to remember more about him. He had... Been a slave. She smiled as the triumphant thought returned. She wondered how he liked being here. Walking up to him, Elin made sure to keep her smile neutral. She had been told if she did anything with her face, the expression made her scar and tattoo seem even more frightening. So keeping her face calm she spoke to the boy. "What is your name?" To the point, looking him in the eye.

The voice caught him off guard not enough for his skittish nature to fully reveal itself though the way she was looking at him was enough to make him pull back. It wasn't her appearance oh no, it was just the way she was staring at him...into his eyes and a sudden question from her caused him to pull back. His old habits were quickly pulling him in, making him put his hands at his sides despite their shakiness from his nervous state now.
"W...Wilson Tom Per..Percival." Wilson answered in a weak and shaky voice, almost as if a voice wasn't used that often.
It wasn't used often thus it was weak and low, audible yes but still not what you would expect from a person. Wilson glanced away really it was just due to wanting to avoid his eyes being stared into. He put his hands behind him to hide the fact that they were shaking. She always hated that....he ended up dropping things or...polishing her scales too roughly due to it. A loud sound soon echoed out, someone had dropped a stack of metal. Of what kind it didn't matter. The clang was enough to send a shiver up an down his spine, a startled and terrified expression came to his face as he quickly ducked down. Putting his arms over his head as he sat there. She always came with a loud entrance....mainly her yelling.

Elin saw the fear in his posture, in his eyes, and noticed the way he hid it. She was impressed. It took quite a bit of moral fiber to stand up when terrified, even if he was shaky. She could work with that in her army. She opened her mouth to say something but a bag dropped behind her. She glanced back, annoyed. It sounded like armor, she would not have her army marching out in scratched or dented armor. The person was hastily picking it up. "Be sure to have that polished." she said the the man. He nodded eagerly then threw the full bag over his shoulder and ran back to the blacksmith's shop. Turning around, Elin's eyes widened at the sight of the boy on the ground, his hands over his head. She immediately bend down, gently placing her hand on the boy's shoulder, prepared for any frightened backlash. "You are safe here." she whispered in the most soothing voice she could manage.

He had to stand up when terrified back there...he grew up having to. Course he kept his voice in his head, so he could stand without as much worry of her lashing out. The sound though...that was too much. His mind immediately jumped to the conclusion she was there, coming with her normal fury and he'd better duck down to avoid some of the wrath. What he got confused him, causing him to look at the woman confused and even cringe a bit away. His hands shaking a lot more than they were earlier though he soon forced em together to try and stop em from doing so.
"S....She always c...came with a ...a loud noise..." Wilson explained. "Never good.....loud noises..."
He'd been here for five years and still wasn't used to the sound of things crashing or a loud noise. Years of that thing being associated with the terror of a dragon that cared not for humans does that to you, even more so if you were raised in such a place from the age of four.

Taking her hand off of his back, she stood with him. Her eyes were filled with concern, though her face remained neutral. "You are safe here, there are no dragons that will harm you here." She did not feel pity for this boy, no, pity was for those like Ryluth who was so filled with hate and anger at humans long dead. She felt hope, for the courage he had and for the strength he could develop. "How long have you been here, Wilson?" she questioned, pulling his elbow to signal for him to walk with her as she moved toward the center of the community. She was interested in his potential, and rising in ranks, or even bonding with a dragon could help this boy. In time. Given time she could help this boy.

"I...I...It's just the no..noise....loud is..is always bad..." Wilson replied, pushing his hands harder against each other, making the color leave them almost.
Despite how life rendered him, he didn't really hate dragons. Sure he was terrified of her but that was conditioned as the years moved on. When he felt her pull on him, his feet moved instinctively. Obey was what he was raised to do, fail to do so....death might be your only punishment. He didn't falter at all as he followed along keeping a little bit behind her though as he was used to. The fact he wasn't a slave anymore was struggling to integrate it into his mind, to make him stop acting this way. Always more time was needed.
"F...Five years." Wilson answered, free a hand for a moment to hold up all his fingers though he quickly pressed em back together. "I...I don't...know why but I I was moved to C...Coporal re..recently.."
Was that what she wants to really know? Wilson pondered his head as he walked behind her.

"5 years and you are a corporal, moving through the ranks quickly are we now?" she said in a light-hearted manner. This boy needed help. And she wanted to give it to him. Any one who had gone through what he had couldn't survive on their own. She couldn't give him much, but she could be his teacher. Often times all someone needed was someone to believe in them. She stopped walking and turned to face him. "Why do you let her still have power over you?" The question was simple enough, though she knew the answer was far from that. It had taken her years to work through the things that had haunted her as a child, and now she worked through her own set of problems, problems that threatened to jeopardize her mission, Excalibur's mission. But she would not let that happen, and neither would Ryagin. You are right, I won't. Though do you think it wise to push the boy? Ryagin's voice came as the familiar brush against her thoughts. He seems fragile.
He is strong. Anything but fragile. I'll tell you what is fragile, your alliance with those dragons on the east border. She smile at the thought of those dragons falling over their tails to serve their long missing king. She dismissed those thoughts from her mind and turned back to the boy.

"I...I just follow...orders." Wilson responded. He did, that was all he did. Do this do that, keep going 'Private', get this done private....the same old thing. Obey and do so. Course his mind was trapped in the cycle of, obey or be punished either by death or something else. Hence he obeyed. He followed silently after answering, slowly loosening his grip on his hands as he attempted to relax. It was very very hard to do that though. All he could do was let his thoughts run wild in his head, it was all he ever done. Though she soon halted and turned round, causing Wilson to stop and back up a few steps. Did I say something wrong? Wilson thought, a look of slight confusion showing though the expression grew at her question. Wh...What's that suppose to mean? As if she'd understand what went on, sure nobody who's a slave had it easy but I doubt they all had someone like her.Wilson stayed quiet, his thoughts being the only thing speaking at the moment but those were silent. His once loosened grip was now hardened again, turning the knuckles whiter than they were and the discoloration going further along. He was now locked away in his head. He couldn't really answer that question...could he? ELIN DRAGON-RIDER

Elin watched the struggle in his eyes, noticing their intensity. This was a strong one.
"So long as you cower at her memory, you will not be able to create your own."she added, for good measure. Often people took to healing from wounds, especially mental wounds, very slowly. This boy was no different. Besides, he had never known how to live a different life.
But her in Excalibur, he had the opportunity to learn how to put his past behind him. But only if he would let himself.
There were so many here who did not let their past dictate their future. Dragon haters, man killers, pacifists, all lived here together, not wondering if someone would stab them in the back because of past beliefs or actions.
She had an idea to help this boy, a dangerous one, but she thought it may be able to help. Perhaps if he saw a kind dragon....

Okay that didn't make a whole lot of sense. If he was still afraid of her, he couldn't make memories? How...how did that work? "M..Memories happen d...daily....th...they're made...." Wilson said. It doesn't make sense the way you put it. Wilson thought though he kept himself quiet. He didn't really hate all dragons, he was just terrified of the one. He only knew one. Putting such things behind oneself would require more than just being told to, you can't erase your memory. Sure some people suffered amnesia but that kind of life was just awful. Never knowing when you'd forget something or remember. For him forgetting would be good though he knew he'd probably be wondering where he got that scar on his back from. Perhaps it wouldn't be good to not remember? ELIN DRAGON-RIDER

Elin realized her thoughts had not clearly made it out of her mouth. That sometimes happened. but she wasn't going to let anyone else know that. "You let that dragon have power over you, and it is not even here. " maybe she should go easier on this boy. It wasn't his fault he was a slave, at least as far as Elin knew. What was she even trying to say. As she tried to rearrange her thoughts, Ryagin interrupted. Elin, what are you talking to that boy about? We don't need any more enemies. She tried to keep herself from rolling her eyes. I just want him to realize that he is safe from his dragon master here. Maybe if he could get that through his head he could be of some use to us! And to himself, I just... can't get the words out. It was hard to admit, even to Ryagin, and he knew her struggle. His next words were much kinder. Why don't you invite him to meet other dragons, to speak with them. Maybe that would help him. Not knowing what else to do she turned her attention back to the boy. "Would you like to meet a dragon?" There was no sense in beating around the bush.

"N..Not that ea...sy..." Wilson mumbled, pressing his hands harder against each other before starting to fiddle with the ends of his sleeves. What was she expecting?! That he could just wipe years of memories away in a instant? To forget the pain and the torture, the abuse that he was dealt in more ways than one. What? It wasn't that easy!!! His fiddling just got more frequent till she suddenly turned round and he jumped back. Startled by her actions an thus he looked at her bewildered yet afraid. Course his fear was slowly replaced by more confusion than previous. "I...I..d...d...don't see...a..pr...problem." Wilson answered, his voice not even a whisper. ELIN DRAGON-RIDER

" You could meet Ryagin. If you think that would help..." she didn't know how to help this boy. She should just turn around and go home. But she had to help him. He was a member of Excalibur. He deserved to feel safe. Maybe someone else would be better suited to the task, but she was the one here. She was amazed at how many times she had felt this way in her life. That... is not what I meant, Elin. Rygain said skeptically. What? You think that you are above him? sarcasm dripped from her words. I can't help him alone. she finally admitted to him. She needed his help, and so she would use his help in anyway she could.

Rygain? Wasn't that... the king dragon? He'd never seen that dragon in person, he merely heard the name and the title that went with it. NOthing else, the king of the dragons, powerful. A dragon that wouldn't waste their time with someone as lowly as him. So having that suggested to him just caused Wilson's mind to remind him of the status difference. Even here Rygain was a king and Wilson well....he might not be a servant but still rather low compared to them.
"I...h...he's...p...probably too bu...busy..." Wilson said nervously as he stepped back.
