Selethina waited impatiently just outside of Excalibur's camp. She didn't know if Leonora was going to show up, but she hoped to see the human she was so fond of. She needed help. Something was wrong with Ryker and he wouldn't tell her what it was. Before now, he'd never hidden anything from her. He'd told her all about his past, his thoughts, his fear, hopes and dreams but now ... now there was a chasm between them and she couldn't cross it. All she knew was that the distance came when their last vision did. The vision. Selethina shuddered as she remembered the feeling of loss that happened in the middle of her vision. Something happened to Ryker in it, she was sure, but she didn't know how serious it was. She wouldn't know unless she could convince him to talk to her and she'd tried that already. Now her last hope was Leonora. Not that she thought the human could get Ryker to confess what he wouldn't even tell Selethina. No, what Selethina did hope for was support for Ryker during the battle. She didn't want him to be alone. She wanted him to be with someone she trusted, someone she knew cared for him and would protect him. Hopefully. She'd sent a message to Leonora, asking her to meet outside the camp and was now waiting. She didn't know when Leonora would be able to come, if at all, but she was willing to wait all day. She would do anything to protect Ryker, even though he was keeping secrets from her. So she laid down on the ground, resting her head on her front claws. She could be patient. She didn't have a choice. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA OOC: Sorry I just started this. I'm ready to end the one with Ryker and Leo and thought this might be an interesting idea to work through ... though I don't expect it to be a particularly long thread.

Leo had just barely moved from underground into Elysium forest. She was only there a few hours when she received the message to meet Selenthia. To say she was nervous was... a serious understatement. Was she about to get a sort of talking to for spending time with Ryker? Could dragons sense when you were falling for someone? No, no. That was silly. That was a silly thing to think. She was sure the white dragon had a perfectly good reason for wanting to meet with her.
She slowly made her way to the edge of camp where the dragon was waiting. She could see the dragon as she moved through the trees and took a deep breath before stepping out into the open. "Selenthia, hi," she said. She was a few minutes late, it seemed, probably because she was too busy freaking out for a few moments before finally getting the courage to come. "Is everything all right?"
(I am so sos os sorry this took me so long!)

Selethina opened her eyes when she heard someone approaching. She smelled the air, slightly concerned. She hadn't meant to actually fall asleep while she rested and she wasn't sure if anyone had found her in that state. She relaxed when she recognized Leonora's scent. She looked to the sky and was further relieved when she realized she must have fallen asleep for mere minutes. Nothing to be concerned about. As the young woman approached and greeted her, Selethina sensed some form of anxiety. Was something wrong with Leonora? She hoped not. She didn't want to burden her any further, but could think of no other option. She needed someone to help Ryker and knew he would probably accept Leonora's help before anyone else's. Selethina nodded her head, trying to reassure Leonora, "Hello Leonora. Thank you for coming," she hesitated a moment, not sure how to begin. Then she rolled her eyes and jumped into it. No use wasting both of their time. "I was hoping you could help me. You see, the other day Ryker and I had a vision of the battle that's coming and something ..." She paused as her body tensed, remembering the feeling during the battle, the feeling of loss, the one that had to do with Ryker. "Something happened to Ryker during the vision. I tried to get to him, but the vision ended too soon. He won't tell me what happened. I don't believe he will confide this in anyone, but I was hoping that maybe you could help him. Stay with him during the battle or find someone who can or something. I'm worried about what will happen if he's alone," she forced herself to stop. She didn't want to worry the human, just inform her that Ryker probably needs help. "Will you?" Selethina asked, feeling more vulnerable than she had in a long time. How would the human react to this? LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

Leo gave a small bow as Selethina nodded to her in greeting. She smiled, placing her hands at her side in a rather serious posture as she listening to what the dragon, the rather large dragon, had to say. She wanted Leo's help? Well, that intrigued her. She continued to listen until the explanation was over, and then chewed on her bottom lip for a moment. "Wait... you mean he was hurt in the battle from the vision? I mean, that would make sense..." she muttered that last part, remembering when she was with Ryker while he had a vision. Was it the same one?
"Of course I'll stay by him, Selethina. But won't you be there as well? Are you two going to be separated?" the idea made her stomach lurch. Any circumstance that would separate he and the dragon during battle could not be good. Leo stepped forward and found herself placing her small human hand on the dragons large scaly claw. "He wouldn't want you to worry so much. He loves you," she said softly, hoping she could somehow calm the dragon.

Selethina found herself very interested in what Leonora was saying. Why would it make sense that Ryker got hurt in his vision? What did she see that day, when she was with him while he had the vision? Selethina's curiosity overwhelmed her. She had to know what happened, why Leo would remember that specifically. "Leonora," she started, trying to keep the raging curiosity out of her tone. She wanted to sound calm. "Why would it make sense that he got hurt in that vision? What did you see?" She asked intently. She hoped she wasn't scaring Leonora. That was the last thing she wanted to do, but she did need to know what happened to Ryker. He was her life now. She didn't know what she would do without him. When Leonora asked her own questions, Selethina hesitated. Of course, she had to answer them, but how? After short deliberation, she began. "Thank you, but I'm afraid I won't be with him. In our vision we were separated early on in the vision. Then I felt something change with him and I rushed to him, but then something dreadful happened. I didn't make it in time and the vision ended. I have no idea what happened to him." She took a slow breath to calm herself before smiling at the young woman in front of her. "I know he doesn't want me to worry, but I can't help it. I've lost so much during my life. I can't stand to lose him too. I won't. I will do anything and everything in my power to keep him safe. I only wish he would tell me what I needed to keep him safe from," she ended wistfully. If only her dearest friend and companion wasn't keeping secrets from her. If only. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

"He... collapsed. He was having trouble breathing. I practically had to carry him back to camp," she said slowly in a gentle tone, as if trying to calm the dragon. Leo had a lot of practice calming people whether they were in hysterics or just trying not to freak out. As Selenthina went on to explain why she was so worried, Leo nodded. "I'm sorry, but he didn't tell me what happened in the vision. But I know he will be safe. There is no way I would let anything bad happen to him because I-" she stopped, feeling a strange sensation in her stomach that she didn't really want to look into. "I just know I can protect him. I can," now she was turning slightly red and she stepped back once. "Is there anything else I can help you with? Are you going to be okay in the battle as well?"

Selethina was glad she'd come to Leo with this. She didn't know everything that was going to happen in this battle, but she now believed that Ryker would be safe. Leo had promised, and she knew that Leo was one who always kept her word. She took a deep breath to show that she was calm now, "Thank you for telling me and for saying that you'll help make sure he's all right. I thought you would help, which was why I came to you," Selethina paused, surprised by how much she was confiding in this human. She usually didn't give many humans her reasons for doing things. Except for Ryker. He was her exception in almost every way imaginable. She smiled, trying to appear understanding when she saw the young woman's face turn red. "I believe that's all. Nothing particularly dramatic happened with me during the battle. I fought many dragons, sometimes on my own and sometimes with aid, but I could handle it. Is there anything I can do to help you?" Selethina didn't know if Leonora would confide in her if she did need help, but she thought she should at least offer it. Maybe she could help with something, somehow. LEONORA NIKOLAEVNA

"I'll do my best," Leo said, her voice catching a little at the end of her sentence. She felt strange that a dragon would trust her so much. Especially with someones life whom she loved so dearly. Still, it was a good feeling at the same time. It seemed both the dragon and the woman were surprised by this conversation, for both went silent for a moment.
"Oh no, no. I don't need any help," except for maybe mental and emotional help, but that wasn't something she wanted to bother the dragon with. Was she even allowed to have feelings for the captain? Was she even allowed to have feelings for someone bonded with a dragon? Well, that was all too confusing to deal with on the brink of war.
She softly smiled up at the dragon, "I will see you again soon."
@selenthina (the end)
