Amber finishes skinning the animals she took to her side and started cooking them on the fire

And without making a noise she disappears leaving her dragons behind

He glanced up as she left, wondering what she was doing. She left her dragons here, so she'll come back eventually, but where is she going? He frowned slightly and finished cleaning the moose. I wont go after her - she might just need some alone time. He started cooking the meat over the fire, slightly worried about Amber was up to - whenever he went off by himself, it was because his past was hurting him too much for him to handle and he needed to just....freak out for a while. She didnt strike him as someone who was depressed, but then again, most people didnt think he was hurting mentally either. Maybe I should follow her. He argues with himself for a while, not sure what to do.

Amber has been gone for ages and Nymeria is getting unsettled, she keeps walked around in circles making whimper noises while Smaug and Kayda have past out from so much food.

Nymeria gets so panicked she almost trampled over Sage

"Ack! Ok, that's it, were going to look for her. Fire Storm, watch Gigi." He glanced over at Amber's dragons and frowned. "Can I ride one of you? I dont know what were getting ourselves into and dont want to bring the baby with, and Fire Storm has to watch her." He was getting worried now - she should have come back for her dragons by now if she could. She could be hurt. Or kidnapped. And where did she go anyway. Ugh. "can one of you track her? I can track her alright, but can one of you smell her trail?"

I can track her, I have her scent but it's fading so she is on the move but I dont think she is kidnapped. She has done this before just walked out of our hut and came back a day later perfectly okay and acted like nothing happened.

Nymeria gets down on the ground so Sage could get on her

He nodded and climbed onto Nymeria. "Thanks. Are you sure she would want us to follow? I get just needing some alone time..."

Sarah nodded. "Yep. Try not to get lost though, Ryu blends in at night. And sorry if Ryu does something he's not supposed to, I'm still training him." She leaned on his back and gripped his neck, giving him a small pat. Ryu leaped into the air. Climbing high into the troposphere, he got a little carried away into a barrel roll. Sarah was dumped off, screeching. Ryu noticed his mistake with surprise and dove, catching her in his talons. "Heh, heh... Yeah, sorry." He murmered. Sarah sighed and patted his leg. Ryu swiftly tossed her into the air and caught her again, except on his back. He made a soft grunt when she landed.

Draein's discomfort increased as he watched Elijah join them by the campfire. A few of the men quietly grumbled, but a look from their most respected cook caused them to stop. They eventually began to start talking among themselves again, continuing the telling of stories, and a few memories of past years. Very soon, they barely cared that a dragon was in their midst at all, laughing about badly made jokes about beer they had made up themselves. The deliciousness of the meat cheered them up very quickly, and the warmth of the fire took nearly all misgivings away. However, Draein still could no forget, his eyes mirroring the blaze of the fire they sat in front of. He was glad for the fire, certainly, but the presence of a dragon sank his spirits. The cook, who he sat on the other side of, grabbed a piece of meat and offered it to him, speaking quietly, "Draein, I know how you feel, but can you enjoy the warmth of the fire and forget about it for once?" Both of them knew what he was referring to. Not many of the men in their group had heard what had happened to Draein's parents, and the cook was one of the few people he trusted to tell.

Nodding, Draein thanked the cook, gratefully taking the piece of meat the cook had offered. Seeing that his young friend's melancholy attitude was somewhat abated, the cook turned to Elijah and said, "Pay no mind to Draein over here. He's a good man, but not very accustomed to strangers." Draein ignored the comment, and went back to eating the meat, which, as always, was cooked nearly to perfection. "I gather you haven't been in the archipelago lately. What's it like, out there?" The cook asked Elijah as he kept an eye on the fire.

Elijah glanced at someone who was sitting on the other side of the cook. He seemed... Uncomfortable, since Eli had sat down at the campfire. "Oh. Well, that's okay. My dad used to be always warning my sister and I about stranger danger. My sister never paid attention, and to tell the truth, I never really did either." He chuckled briefly. "Yeah. Been exploring the Arctic. It's cold and barren, although beautiful at the same time. The sun reflects off the ice and snow, its truely dazzling." Zai had crossed her paws and rested her chin on them. Eli began stroking her back as he went on, "At night, the Aurora Borealis can be visible sometimes. My personal favorite was the glacier caves. It was hard to see once you got deep enough into the cave, but Atayi and Zai's eyeshine helped. If you really wanted to see it, all you have to do is go North. It goes faster if you fly, but its impossible to fly without a riding dragon."
