Master Of None

Walker still felt it was amazing seeing the large dragon that Ignus was. He had many more characteristics than Mordant did due to the difference in affinity. It also radically changed compared to Current who was more streamlined and less bulky. The difference between all dragons was hard to discern without seeing their forms clearly.

"Now that looks like someone I could butt heads with." Scylla could tell that any attacks using water elemental mana would prove fruitless against Ignus. However, that did not mean that she wanted to push against that thought process.

"I swear, If you even try it." Walker caught himself before he started on another rant about appearances. He felt like an old man watching a bunch of children.

"Midnight, keep the hatchlings back a little so that they don't get themselves in to trouble. The two hatchlings coming might be a little older than them." Walker wanted to ensure that everything would work out well in the end. He didn't want Midnight to play peacemaker. She had to teach them to live in Genesis and find their own paths. Not to keep from fighting all the time due to any differences they may have.

Ignus landed with a rumble that was stronger than any other dragon that had landed before. Walker was already manipulating the earth elemental mana to fix the cracks in the streets or else he would hear it from the hard working dwarves that had built it.

"You are faster than I expected. Welcome to Genesis." Walker looked at one of Ignus's talons and saw two very silent and still hatchlings. In the matter of a single burst of flames, Ignus had changed to his dragonkin form to stand in front of Walker with the two hatchlings by his side.

"This is slightly larger than I believed your village would be. I do enjoy this landing area. It is made very well for my visit." Ignus thought that the square had been made just for him to land. However, Walker was not allowing that to go on.

"This is the main square outside of the Genesis building. It will take a little time to call a meeting of representatives to meet you. Until then, how about we have something to eat?" Walker had yet to eat properly. He also knew that Mordant had been eyeing some of the street stalls.

"If you offer him food immediately upon arrival you may not have anything for winter." Mordant didn't even take time before antagonizing Ignus.

"From the shadow that has been stealing away food, I think that means nothing." Ignus stood taller cursing the two hatchlings beside him to shudder slightly.

"Those two seem to need food as well. Midnight, Take care of them while I speak to Ignus. We have a lot to discuss between the three of us. Su, I will trust the meeting to start with you. You know what I will do when I introduce Ignus." Walker knew that the hatchlings needed space and an examination. Leaving it up to Midnight was the perfect way to get it done. He also trusted that Su would quickly gather everyone to speak in the meeting room.

"You have a banquet set up for me I assume?" Ignus was not going to accept just anything, however, both Walker and Mordant were heading away from the large building that they were near.

"Hurry up. We are showing you the best spots to get food. I have spent hours being guided to these stalls. I assure you they are better than the plain roast meat you have in your village." Mordant did not even falter. He too was a glutton for the mixed spice foods that Genesis had brought together.

Mere moments after hesitantly following the two in to the market road, Ignus found himself overwhelmed. The scents of foods cooking and being prepared were extremely potent. To a dragon, the scents were much stronger than it would be to a human. "There are a lot of people here but this is the market road. The main stalls and shops are on this road. I recommended those smoked chicken skewers over there. They are made using the trees from an elven farm and the techniques of the dwarves." Walker moved to purchase three skewers for each of them. He had placed his in his storage to share with the hatchlings later.

"I am willing to ignore the foolish greeting. I did not maintain my schedule. Yet this is not right! A mere street food with whatever this is-" Walker cut Ignus off. With the help of Mordant's shadows, they stuffed a skewer in his mouth. It was not elegant in any form but it was the best way to counter the stubborn fire dragon.

"These people eat things like this every single day. Even Walker's mother creates things like this. For a human, she has a wonderful choice of food. I would say that the food we have eaten has been garbage by comparison. We all must raise chefs in the future." Mordant spoke as if he was an expert in cuisine. The relaxed attitude caused Ignus to begin an internal battle. Tradition against the desire to eat more.

"Just don't think about it too hard. You are my guest here so you do not need to follow traditions so strictly. You are living the laws of Genesis while you are a guest here. It means you are equal and walk among the citizens of Genesis. But it also means that I will thank you for your help with Gil and Alma. Now come cash in on the foods I am buying you." Walker used the internal confusion make a few points to Ignus.

"Since you are repaying my kindness then I shall accept it. Do not expect me to fall in to your ways." Ignus spoke but had eyes darting to the other food stalls. He had been hooked.
