An other Lost(?)

[20:04:16] The young teen would approach the small drakenite with a smile and a wide grin. "I've never seen one of you before!" Charles looks to be emaciated having the physique of a starving boy. "Are you by any chance my mother?" He would ask while beginning to go around the drakenite poking and feeling his features.
"It sure would be cool if you were!"
(Charleston Goo)
[20:08:32] Would simply turn to the kid with a gaze, it was weird... he didn't just confuse Kariya with a woman, he just asked if he was his mother... well, this was pretty new to him, the man was a little bit mad, but he would just let it pass, with a deep breath, the young adult would just pat the kid's head with a soft smile.

-Ahh... i think i can't be your mother, i am no woman you know... and even if i was, look at me, we're pretty diferent you know... heh.
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:11:56] Charles frowns before looking down at the ground. "Oh I see..you're not my mother?" He'd kick some dirt. "That's a bummer that is." Strangly the boys accent would continue to change as he'd speak. "So where are ye headed my good chap?" A squirrl would run boy distracting the boy, he'd run up to it and begin to play with it, strangely the Squirrl doesn't run.
(Charleston Goo)
[20:16:12] Kariya would just sit in one of thoose benchs, looking to the skies, he was resting at New Alteros before he could just run to Nostvale once again... he would just allow himself to get distracted too.

-Oh... no i don't think so, but i'm Kariya, we could be friends... what is your name, young one?
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:18:46] He'd look up to the Drakenite. "My name is Charles!" As he says this the Squirrel would pop out of his hair and he'd burst into childish laughter. "What's your name mister? I bet it's something real slick!" He looks to him in eager anticipation, as if the mans name would be the secret to life itself.
(Charleston Goo)
[20:21:20] He would just yawn, Kariya wasn't up to explain that he wasn't a woman, he just called him a mister again... well, that doesn't matter, it's just a kid... how could it be bad, huh?

-Well, my name is Kariya Aíma. I am just resting here at Alteros you know... i was training real hard, so i stopped to rest, and you, what are you doing around here, young kid?
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:18:46] He'd look up to the Drakenite. "My name is Charles!" As he says this the Squirrel would pop out of his hair and he'd burst into childish laughter. "What's your name mister? I bet it's something real slick!" He looks to him in eager anticipation, as if the mans name would be the secret to life itself.
(Charleston Goo)
[20:21:20] He would just yawn, Kariya wasn't up to explain that he wasn't a woman, he just called him a mister again... well, that doesn't matter, it's just a kid... how could it be bad, huh?

-Well, my name is Kariya Aíma. I am just resting here at Alteros you know... i was training real hard, so i stopped to rest, and you, what are you doing around here, young kid?
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:24:44] "Doesn't sound like anything I've heard." The boy would casually be absorbing the damn squirrel into his body, feeding on it. "Don't squirm little guy, you're a yummy lunch." After the squirrel was sucked into the boy alive he'd touch the Drakenites shoulder and slowly form into his likeness. He'd laugh again as he does so. "Maybe you're my mother afterall!"
(Charleston Goo)
[20:29:00] Would simply stratch his head as he watches that weird scene... well, the worse part wasn't the young eating the squirrel after all, it was him calling him as his mother... well, it wasn't a bad thing, but it was weird.

-W-well, i'm not your mom... i'm Kariya, i am a friend, don't you know? A friend! well, technically we're not friends yet... do you want to be friends with me, young one?
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:31:34] "Friend? Don't have one of those yet, I always like getting what I don't have, so sure!" He'd laugh and pat him on the back. "Right then mate, suppose we're friends then eh?" The voice would be that of a forty year old pipe smoking dock worker?. "Gon' have a nice time we will eh?" He nudges the Drakenite.
(Charleston Goo)
[20:34:59] Would simply nod in confusion, well, that young "baby" was pretty interesting, he never knew about a 2 years old who could talk this well, and that was interesting, atleast a little bit about him.
-Woah... you speak very well for a kid you know...
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:42:40] He sizes the Drakenite up and down. "I'm starting to think you're my mom and don't want to tell me." The voice would be right back to childish and young. The voice used before was that of a rugged older man. "So shoot straight with me!" He folds his arms nodding as he explains how he doesn't appreciate the dishonesty.
(Charleston Goo)
[20:45:13] Would simply facepalm, lowering his head as the young kid talks about him being his "mom" somehow, and yeah, that was starting to be annoying, atlest for him, and he wouldn't want to yell or go mad with the young child.

-Look, i'm not your mother, if i was i would be blonde, and would be less pale, so... why don't you just acept that this is not how genetic works? I am a Drakanite, you're a... wait, what race are you?
(Kariya Aíma)
[20:48:38] He looks at him eyes riddled with confusion. "I'm a...a..You should know what I am silly." Looks away awkwardly and coughs a bit before leaning in and whispering. "Not too sure to be honest mom."
(Charleston Goo)
[20:52:54] Ren was quiet. They had been rather.....Well to put it mildly. Ren had been damn depressed. They still felt depressed. Flying about overhead the marsh then the bygone grove. Ren flew high above the city of Altero's. Quietly Ren's stomach growled and Ren..looked down at the city. Ren....breatthed out. They werent really known as cinderfall by many and in truth. Ren was in places due to their friends not allegiance towards cinderfall itself.

Quietly Ren landed and began to explore New altero's smothered in the depravity that emanated from this place. Ren managed to get something to eat. Some kinda grilled......lamb? Some kinda crab as well. Gently they walked along before they bumped headfirst into an old friend. Lamb in their mouth. Their eye's wide.

"Ngh!?"
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[20:53:45] Having overheard the conversation Aoi was silently chuckling away in a deep voice, her gargantuan size for a human made her smile even more denotable.

This 7foot 4 inch giant of a human was simply sitting on the ground looking up at the sky.
(Aoi Akane)
[21:01:26] Would simply turn to Ren with a gaze, Kariya was with his weights, but they were way heavier and bigger, it almost looked as if Kariya was with two car wheels on his arms and legs, was weird, but alteast he was having a good work in the training.

With a soft smile, the young one would just pat the kid's head while turned to Ren, he was happy, he wouldn't even need to think before talking with such a known friend he met at trystle cave so much time ago.

-Ren! How are you my friend...? Well, i'm here to rest a little bit from my training... and yeah, this kid thinks i'm it's mom...
(Kariya Aíma)
[21:06:33] Ren. Gently took their lamb outta their mouth and gave a weak smile followed by a groan. Gently rising before sitting on a bench Ren tried to look....not fatalistic one would suppose.

"..Ren....hasent been doing well. It's....Ren's day's become harder more and more......and Ren struggle's.....Ren..is scared and grow's more sad and more frustrated and more worried and it just make's it all damn harder and Ren just feel's like their spiraling into death."

Ren blinked. They shouldet have said that. Ren dident want to worry Kariya. Especially when they were talking about something silly before hand.

"Ren...just. Nevermind."
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[21:13:23] Would open his eyes wide when he hears the Drakanite speaking, he was worried, deeply, but wanted to show he was strong, of course, he wanted to know what bothers Ren, what makes it to feel so sad and hollow.

-Ren...? Are you okay...? What bothers you...? I mean, i am here for you my friend, that's what we are, right? You can tell me everything... "Kariya is here for Ren because Kariya is a friend of Ren, Isn't he?

He would finish trying to imitate the way Ren speaks, but of course, it wouldn't be so good, he couldn't reproduce such a voice easily, but yeah, he was worried and wanted his friend to trust him.

-You trust me... don't you?
(Kariya Aíma)
[21:16:48] Ren smiled and gently stretched out their wing's. Ren.....towered over almost everyone in sight to be honest. Not really anyone could match their height not even other drakenite's really. Well besides that really weird human over their of course but that was besides the point. Ren was unaturally tall.

"Ren trust's you. Ren...........is dying. Due to a problem with their body. Ren dosent know what cause's such problem. But the problem is Ren grows too fast for their body to keep up with it. Ren's bone's...are having problems sustaining Ren and Ren feel's more and more pain the bigger they get. Ren has been trying to learn holy earth but it gets harder each day. Ren...is scared that its too late and that Ren will die."
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[21:23:37] Kariya would get closer, bringing his both hands to the Drakanite's shoulder, locking his sight on it's eyes, he would just swallow some saliva as he stares the Drakanite, taking some time before he could talk, he was worried, scaried and sad at the same time... Kariya never felt such a thing.

-What...? Ren is going to die...? Don't say that! Ren is a friend for Kariya! Kariya lost a friend arleady, K-I don't want to lose you, i don't want to lose people anyomore... don't you know anything that could save you? You don't know anything that i could do to help you, Ren...?

He would say shaking him as he speaks, it was almost as if he was yelling, but he wasn't, for him, his own words would get on his ears like a knife passing throw his flesh, he was too hurted himself to hear his own words.

-I... don't want to lose my friends anymore... that's why i wear this black armor... don't force me to find a pair of horns...
(Kariya Aíma)
[21:28:44] Ren stared eye's wide. Then breathed and breathed deep breathing. Up close...the pain in Ren's body was obvious. You could feel their shaking. Their quivering. See their eye's quivering.

"Ren. Has ben trying to get...Holy earth. Ren knows it can save them. But the problem is Ren...is having such a hard time concentratiing becuase of the pain...becuase they cant focus and becuase their so worried and scared. Ren dosent know what to do. Ren.....dosent know. Maybe someone can help Ren. Maybe. Maybe. Ren and Kariya...can try and make some kinda...thing asking for assistance and hopefully someone will answer."

Ren gently hug's kariya.

"Ren...doset want to die either Kariya. Ren dosent want to leave their friends behind."
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[21:35:34] Would simlpy keep holding his shoulder, and the more he speaks, more Kariya would gently slowly releasing it, the man could cry, if he really belief what was going on in there, yet, it hurts... and not at Ren only...

As the Drakanite holds him, hugs him, he would do nothing... wink, move, nothing would come from him... Kariya would just alllow him to, as if rests his chin at it's shoulder gently.

Slowly, he would lend his hands to it's arms, as if he wanted to fight back at just acepting such a situation, something like that, happening right in front of him, something that he couldn't acept anymore, is losing any other thing, losing power, losing a friend, anything. Lost is so painfull.

-I... don't want to... why you simply acept that you have no time...? We have enough time... you can survive this... Ren, believe it...

He would say releasing it's arms, one last time with a final sigh as he would simply close his eyes slowly.

(Kariya Aíma)
[21:40:41] Ren breathed. And breathed quietly taking a bite of their food Ren spoke.

"..Ren....never said they dident have time. Ren.....will last. A few more years...maybe 5 or 6...maybe. But it will get harder to save Ren the longer it takes to learn holy earth. If Ren can learn it. Ren will live. Ren know's this. Ren need's to find a way to have enough mana and have enough concentration. Have enough focus to do it. The pain destract's and makes things so hard...Ren...has been so close. Held back by mana....and exhaustion. .Ren....Kariya....Ren is saying they are dying slowly. But Ren is not saying they will die defintely. Ren is only saying they feel like they are spiraling toward's death and if Ren can not learn holy earth or be saved some other way. Ren will end."
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[21:45:48] Would simply push him away for a second as he raises his face, locking his sight on Ren's eyes once again, before taking a deep breath to speak when he hears what the Drakanite says, well, he was really worried... worried enough to ignore that Ren can survive, for him it was almost if they were close to death.

-So... what are you doing here? You should be at the library studying... i can help you, i don't know, read for you, ah, err... maybe trying to explain? I don't know... anything? I can do anything for Ren... even if i have to stop my training for some time... just ask me and i shall do anything to help...

He'd say in a loweedr voice tone, as he looks away for a second, showing deep despair.
(Kariya Aíma)
[21:50:04] Ren blinked. Before their expression softened and Ren breathed. People....needed them not to die. Ren needed to be strong trudge through this pain and this hardship and harness it. They need to harness it as best as they can. Grow strong and stable. An idea came to Ren.

"Ren....has an idea. If Ren can find an herb or something that Reduce's pain greatly while still allowing Ren to mostly focus along with a good teacher. Ren knows a few holy earth people Ren thinks. At leastt 1 anyway. Ren should stand a much better chance at succeeding. Once Ren gets a foothold. Ren can work hard on perfecting and making sure they are comfortable on using it on their own body! But Ren is here becuase they were tired and sad and hungry."
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[21:50:56] Ren Alexander Hertlend: Can....Kariya look around for something that might be able to do that in their sparetime. Ren will need a good supply of it.
[21:55:12] Would just get a little bit more comfortable, it was a good idea and that might work, yet, it wasn't something that he thinks would be easy for him to do, atleast not alone... and he knew about that.

-You know where i can find such a thing...? I need to find people to help me in such a task, dont you know other friends you could call and ask the same favor? We could... we could help you searching for it...

He'd say crossing his arms, in a form to protect himself unconsciously from the weight of Ren's death, or to have to look for such things alone... he haves no idea about how thoose plants works, and how he could reduce it's pain, well, it shouldn't be rare or anything.
(Kariya Aíma)
[21:58:36] "Ren has other friend's who can help them. It took Kariya to help Ren think of a plan. Ren isent dead yet and Ren cant give up yet now can they? Ren....is still alive Kariya. Ren think's they will try talking with Batkem.They are a nature...thingy. Maybe they could even make something for Ren...at the very least they could maybe...Turn of Ren's pain? Like...make it so Ren cannot feel pain?"
(Ren Alexander Hertlend)
[22:03:44] A sigh would come from Kariya, well, he was getting more relaxed and comfortable, yet, he was still worried about what could happen to Ren if it fails, even painfully or not.

-Just don't give up, i will find a way to help you, me and your other friends, well, you're one of my few friends... i don't have much of theese, and i won't allow you to die in between my arms...

He would say getting up, enforcing his weights, he needed to run... run, swim, get drunked... everything that could make him to forget this situation atleast for a second... everything that could make he feel better.

-Ren, i know it hurts... but i suggest you head to the library and study, like... i'm not kidding, you should do it, and i...? I will run, i have to think... i have think about all that... do you allow me to leave?

He would glance upon his shoulder, grabbing his hellbound black helmet with his both hands, bringing it close to his chest.
(Kariya Aíma)
[22:06:17] Ren Alexander Hertlend: .....I...Yes Feel free to go
