Koren rushed towards the encampment, he placed all of his strength on his two legs, including all of his remaining wind power. However, just as he was about to reach the encampment, he suddenly felt an intense pain coursing through his body, his little body fell with a thud and rolled on the sand.
”Ahhhhh” Koren screamed with agony, his eyes were completely bloodshot and his head felt like it could burst at any moment. The wind started to vibrate in pulses around him, turning Koren's surroundings into a little sand tornado.
Koren continued to scream in pain for a whole minute, before finally passing out. A few minutes later a man suddenly appeared next to Koren, this man looked at Koren, and then looked around for anyone else. As he knelt down to pick Koren up, he noticed the sword on his back and his expression changed. He hid the sword on himself before carrying Koren and moving towards the encampment.

”I DON'T KNOW!!” Ken Screamed as his torturer brought the flame closer to his face. The torturer smirked, he was amused by the pitiful screams of the human. ”As chief, you should know what will happen to your people if I don't get what I want, give up human, and tell me where you hid it.” Said the draconian commander Uther, as he brought a dark sizzling flame and put it on kens face.
”Ahhh” Screamed ken before biting down as soon as possible. The commander's face was bitter, he had tortured this human for hour's, yet he kept hearing the same words again and again. ”How many more of your people have to die, the artifact is of no use to your people, surrender it and I will set you free” said Uther with some hesitation. Ken, who at this point had half his face filled with a dark scar, looked up. ”I DON'T KNOW!!, haha haha” Said Ken before starting to laugh hysterically. ”Damn It!!” shouted Uther as he hit ken squarely on the head, making him shut up.
Uther was the Commander of the 12th battalion of the Draco Kingdom. Unlike most draconian's who either have strong physical prowess or elemental prowess, Uther was blessed with a Unique element, The Dark Flame. His dark flame was not only far hotter than regular flames but was also corrosive and extremely difficult to get rid of. Such gifts were extremely rare among the Upper echelons of the Draco Kingdom, however Uther's father was a former prince, and carried the royal bloodline.
Uther walked out of the tent, his deputy Andre quickly approached him ”Sir, the prince received our report and sent a wind raven back” said Andre with a parchment in his hands. ”Give it to me!” shouted Uther as he grabbed the parchment from Andre's grip.
”I will read it in my quarters, no one is to disturb me” Said Commander Uther as he made his way to a tent in the center of the camp.
As Uther walked in, his large draconian body started to get smaller, his tail, scales and even his horns started to retreat. This was the normal form of a draconian citizen. Most draconian's looked similar to humans, with the only distinguishing factors being the glassy scales on their necks, under eyelids and along their cheeks , as well as the slight stubs on the location of their horns. However, even in their normal form, the strength they carried was 5 times that of an average human.
Even though the transformation took effort to maintain, Uther preferred it, as it helped him reinforce his authority Infront of his battalion troops. As a carrier of royal blood, Uther was blessed with dark Azure scales, and was the envy of many lesser royals. However, Uther knew that his father was only the youngest brother of the former king, and was not slaughtered like his other siblings by posing as a retard. As such, Uther himself didn't have any right to fight for the throne. He had to wag his tail around the 4th Prince just to stay close to the royal circle.
Uther made his way to his study desk and sat on a chair, he looked at the parchment in his hands and removed the wax seal. As he started to read, his pupils went wide like a snake, and his breathing became heavy. Dark flames started to erupt all over his body, and his frame started to get larger again, he was back in his draconian form. ”Ahhh, that bastard, I'll kill him, how dare he!!.” Shouted Uther as the flames consumed his whole tent.
Andre who was waiting outside was not surprised, he had already heard about the friction between the Commander and the 4th Prince.
Uther was incensed, flames were erupting from his nostrils.
”Dearest Cousin, if you push me too far, you might not like it” said Uther while looking at the burning parchment in his hand.
In the letter, the 4th Prince, his royal highness Rekim Draco, berated Uther for his incompetence, and informed him of his demotion, as well as the fact that the prince himself will be arriving to continue the search for the artifact.

Uther, still covered in dark flames, came out of the burning tent. Andre immediately ran over and knelt down with his spear in tow. ”Sir, what are your orders” said Andre in an orderly manner fitting an officer.
Uther's brows twitched, he looked at the kneeling Andre and breathed. ”Send the prisoners to the mines, and inform the troops that I will no longer be their commander. Also start preparations to receive his royal highness The 4th Prince.” Said Uther in a calm voice.

Koren found himself in the dark nothingness once more, he was wearing the same strange clothes from before, and just like last time, could only see himself. ”I'm here again” thought Koren as he looked at his clothing.
