reaching their neck out, the drsgon rumbled in greeting to their younger sister, blue eyes sparking with warm welcome, "Jiějiě piào jià rúhé?", they greeted her in a deep rumble, happy.

they weren't happy that war was knocking on the doorstep, but they were not to meddle with the combst aside from preventing unnecessary deaths. "come to my side, hope, do not bloody your claws tonight in the name of a war that has nothing to do with our family. mother did not die for us to kill ourselves in battle to join him.", they growled softly, grief rippling through their voice and dragging their shoulders down.

"i will not fight unless it is to keep a head from falling from its shoulders. i do not wish to see our family falling like sheep at the slaughter, nor do I wish to see my friends fall without grace. losing asteri was bad enough, I cannot lose anybody else." they breathed deeply. speaking of the dead brought back hard memories to swallow. voice catching, they thundered softly, "the only blood i will spill willingly and happily, is the one that took mother's head." they murmur softly to her, touching noses and moving their tail to the side to pull her close in comfort.

they closed their eyes upon hearing the quiet murmur from idyll, wanting nothing more than to find the coyote that they found themselves seeking the company of near constantly. they felt empty without their friend at their side, especially at this time, aching to have the coyote beside them, at a distance that they could protect. but they had to settle with the knowledge that idyll was safe under goldenluxury's watch, safe from those that bai had thought were their friends at one time.

they had to settle for this, watching kydobi with a painful longing, exhaling as they curled their lip with a soft growl, watching in pain. they were going to loose so many people here .... they didnt even want to think about how much they would lose from either side if war was to commence. opening their eyes, they saw a flash of black fur and teal eyes, their head chasing the apparition that only they could see, a keen coming from their throat at the gentle form of their lost mate, watching the apparition fade into the beings about to start this fight, their eyes growing dark with extreme grief.

their gaze turned at the crack of thunder, wind buffeting the dragon's mane as they brought the air surrounding them in a way of cushioning, climbing to their feet. their dragon's body would be of no aid here. golden body shrinking in size, the drsgon assumed their jaguar body, black and white pelt clashing with the dull silver scales showing where their scars laid, protected even with silvery ichor oozing from recently opened wounds, the scales not quite hard enough yet.

inhaling as they watched the npc's body fall, they felt their fur rise and ripple, the beast turning to hope with a look of question. war called in their bones, and for their own sanity, they relied upon their sister's presence to keep them still. their heart ached at the ghost brushing past them, their mind supplying the feel of the spirit of their mate pressing to their flank and twining against them, telling them to give in to the rage that rocked through the ancient being's body, their claws kneading the ground beneath their paws, tail flicking. they could not afford to fight or listen to the ghost, they could not give in to themselves, "asteri, forgive me, but I shall not join you today.", they rasped, pushing their muzzle through the apparition, tail curling over their back as they forced themselves to sit at hope's side once more.
