There was an almost endless number of actions and ceremonies was hard to follow. Even more cultural differences made through the years stacked up making it tougher to understand. Walker would need to be very careful with his actions since simple little things might be thought of as disrespect to another royal. The only thing that seemed to really give him one up on the others was the natural mana aspect he had. Most dragons had singular or dual elemental affinities. Having multiple was rare and having three was considered once in a hundred years. Not that this totally limited them but it directed the path they traveled.

The pressure Walker felt to read the book as fast as possible was the same that Su felt. However, they were also sharing lessons with everyone else as they read.

"So you have to be taller than the other dragons? How are you going to do that when ancient dragons live to be taller than our houses?

" Remey was trying to figure out why such a rule existed.

"I think it is metaphorical. Walker should stand taller as in his posture and actions. But if he needs to truly show his strength then he will use his wind ripple to step up and above another dragon.

" Su found the answer simple enough for Remey but was still trying to figure out her own.

"It says it is my duty to protect Midnight there. But my shields will be too small one day to protect her. I'm not sure if I can learn these magic skills that a dragonkin learns. Veil itself is a tough taunting skill that focuses on illusion magic to taunt an enemy.

"

Su had never imagined that magic was within the realm of a draconic guardian to learn. She had never imagined to learn magic in the least to begin with.

"I think you are trying too hard to imagine what you can't learn. Look at me lately. I didn't pay any mind to learning about wind elemental mana even though it is my affinity, I have Zephyr and an archers' best friend. When I did I started to learn much more about how my arrows fly. Zephyr said I might even be able to change their direction while they fly one day. So try to learn everything and see what happens.

"

The advice from Gil was not bad. He had learned his lesson and was not glad to admit his Mistakes even though that if Zephyr and the other elemental spirits hadn't gone off to explore, she would tease him.

"Armor.

" The wandering blacksmith landed a finder under a paragraph of Walkers' book. He had been reading along and found something important.

"It says that only ancient dragons and royal dragons will ever wear armor. Champions may have armor if they desire it but royals are the only ones that wear armor to show status among other dragons. It even says that the armor can shift with them in to their dragonkin form when forged using special alloys and runes that only dragons have knowledge of.

" There was an excited look on the wandering blacksmiths' face.

It was clear that there was new knowledge to him. No one in the party had known this. The only time an armored dragon was mentioned was in a story or heroes' tale. Having written knowledge about runes used by dragons and even special crafting methods was something that would make the wandering blacksmith sell his soul.

"I guess we will be figuring this out together.

"

"That's right. I did not consider that you would need armor. Do you have any as of yet? You do not need any that shifts forms which is good but you will need powerful and fitting armor that befits your standing. Something domineering to match the scales of your champion would be best. It shows the bond, It makes a statement.

" Adair started to shuffle through to scrolls and other odds and ends.

Walker was beginning to realize that there were many new things piling up in his inventory. There were new materials that he and the wandering blacksmith would use, monster meats, and now scrolls from dimensional step Alabastor. On top of this, a new set of armor would be joining them if they could craft it.

"Use this. It's a gem from a diamond golem and is enough to show your power as a royal. I have had it for two hundred years now when I sent a dragonkin on a mission to prove their strength. Now that I have it I have forgotten about it. It will be much more useful in an armor as a centerpiece than wasting away in the dust.

" This was a small ploy for Adair to strengthen her own relationship with Walker and the party. She had to be sure that she had them well bound to her village for a better future. She had the potential to become an ancient dragon and stand directly under the royal ancient water dragon.

The fact that Adair was able to casually take out such a rare item was a mysterious action that made the entire party question what a dragon really was. The knowledge about dragons was too limited. Only a few adventurers had made leaps in researching them and even then, it was a drop in the bucket. However, the interactions between humans and dragons were still very very, rare.

"Are you sure? This would be incredibly valuable. I hear that diamond golems are the rarest golem there is and much much MUCH harder to defeat.

" Walkers' knowledge was based off of human knowledge. Therefore, Adair was quick to hold her tongue when telling him that it was a challenge for a young dragonkin warrior. There were many more powerful creatures in the world than a diamond golem.
