The Dragoso Series 3: Peace in Agony

To say that discovering there were four new members to the team that weren’t from Earth was a shock was an understatement for Trevor and his siblings. While Nyx was a typical dragon they had seen around the Academy, Haarvik, Jarin’do, and Kyona were far from normal.

Haarvik was known as a Rukmar. He had blue skin, long black hair tied back into a ponytail, purple eyes to match his Moon Dragon form, and was rather tall. Close to seven feet tall. What made him even more unique was the fact his legs and feet were that of a hooved animal, the closest thing Trevor could compare Haarvik to was a satyr. The large man had quite a bit of muscle on him too, which he needed to carry around and wield a rather large hammer in his non-dragon form. He still had the oddly shaped horns curving from his head. Haarvik was usually seen in a leather tunic and tight black pants. Having hooves, he didn’t wear shoes, but instead had covers of sorts below his knees. Another unique thing about Rukmars was they had tails, long tails that matched their skin. Males had larger, thicker tails, but every Rukmar adorn them with rings and bands of sorts for decoration.

Jarin’do was a purple skinned troll. Unlike the trolls from books, he was lanky and had rather long legs along with a pointy nose and his underbite with longer canines. In battle, Jarin’do wore all black armor, casually however, he wore an animal pelt of some kind to cover what was necessary and was decorated with animal skulls as pauldrons. Jarin’do however, hated shoes so when he wasn’t in battle, he walked around barefoot. Jarin’do also had a cloak also made of animal skin, it looked like wolf fur. Jarin’do’s eyes and short spiky hair were pitch black, something common in Shadow Dragons. He was proficient in using not only a bo staff, but a large scythe as well, he tended to switch between the two weapons for his battle style.

Kyona was a rather young Night Elf. She wasn’t very different from other elves aside from her pink skin and how at ease she was in the night. Kyona was even more unique due to being a Galaxy Dragon. Her hair was long and golden while she had no pupils in her gold eyes. She wore very little to allow her to move silently through the night, using small daggers and a bow and magical arrows that did a variety of elemental magic damage. On the hunt she wore a breastplate, shorts, gauntlets, and leather boots. When she wasn’t out hunting, she wore a ranger’s outfit, a leather shirt and slacks. Very rarely was she seen without her bow and her daggers.

“Our first Dragoso natives here at Voutneth, can you believe it?” Brenda asked. Trevor and his siblings sat at breakfast recovering from the day before. The battle with Agony’s army was intense, they hardly knew of Kathey’s victory over Agony until the army suddenly retreated and the Undead Soldiers surrendered, being free of possession.

“Why even open portals when they aren’t going to be used?” Trevor wondered. His eyes lingered on Kathey speaking with the new members of the team and apparently security. Kathey had given the Night Walkers a new home and put them onto the night guard as well. The four of them would patrol the ground of Voutneth at night so Darkness wouldn’t be the only one keeping watch at night. Kathey glanced up, meeting Trevor’s eyes and smiling, she said something to the Night Walkers and made her way over to Trevor and his siblings.

“The portals aren’t usable yet because Voutneth is going to be rebuilt so we can teach the races of Dragoso more than what they would learn in their villages,” Kathey explained.

“Really?” David asked, smiling. Kathey nodded.

“Yup, Voutneth is going to be closed down for a few months, a lot of us are going to a dojo that Malice, Sylark, Zoymey, and I were living at before I had Voutneth built,” Kathey said. Trevor frowned.

“What about everyone who doesn’t have a place to go home to? And the griffins?” Trevor questioned.

“The dojos are rather big, plus the one I was at in the past can house the griffins until everything is ready. You four, however, can go back home to your mother.” Kathey smiled. “I’m sure she’s missed you and you all have control of your powers finally, you can go see her. I will contact you when Voutneth and Drake are ready for you to return to help keep Earth and now Dragoso safe.” Trevor stood and held a hand to Kathey to shake. She looked down at it before shaking his hand.

“Thank you, Kathey,” he graced and Kathey nodded.

“Of course, Trevor.”

A black gloved finger traced around the rim of a wine glass filled with a deep red liquid, thunder rumbled above as the glass was lifted to light purple lips and drank from deeply. The glass was set on the armrest of a throne with pink cushions. Red eyes looked through an orb showing Agony pouting in his holding cell.

“Oh Agony, dear. It’s so sad that you claim to be the strongest out of all of us, and yet you got your tail handed to you by a girl.” the onlooker said. The orb disappeared and the vampire stood from her throne. Thigh high boots, a very short skirt, and rather revealing shirt that barely kept her breasts contained, Lust looked as provocative as ever. She approached the succubus that sat before her with bright purple hair and pink eyes.

“I am ready to serve, Mistress Lust,” she said in a sultry tone.

“Good, my dear Carmilla, for we have a lot of work to do,” Lust said and rested a hand on Carmilla’s head. “Do not fail me, love.”
