"Assumptions could be made for those who have proclivity towards war. But on the cusp of one's final breath when death comes to even the score there's nary a soul that doesn't repent for the time they lent sending innocent souls prematurely to the great unknown"

Waiting may come naturally to some to those who live in the now disavowed Not caring if the Gods of fate will allow them to live yet another day But, unfortunately not all the Chaco felt the same way Most scared of their own shadows when cast in their way by the light of day So this wait their princess insisted they were enlisted to without a say weighed heavily on their psyches

Every day the Chaco stepped out they would hear the Draco shout out loud about how they will soon be disemboweled and tortured to death by their own hands
Despite the threats, they set their minds to scale uphill and fulfill Lilly's wishes to find a rare oleander flower that had the power of permanent sleep kept high in the mountain peaks
So they did scour the rocky face interlaced in rope scoping every stone to own the one that shown the right white petals that could comatose the stoutest of man to disinterest the Draco's simple minds of unkind acts towards Chaco kind
After days of searching, they spied birthing from a high cliff just a small grip sitting on a precarious face tucked far away in a crevice
Rams who seek them for dinner couldn't figure the rocks configure so their find was quite advantageous indeed
Even the five hundred foot drop wouldn't stop our mountain top explorers So they slung a rope to elope with the bouquet and swung away Holding a precarious grip they were able to rip the flowers from their stone tower and once in pocket they locked their belay and were lowered away to safety

Months had past and their food stores wouldn't last much past another 2 weeks
Lilly took a seat near the magical mirror her father was cast into the last time she saw him alive before his dive back into a distant timeline several years ago She remembered father's phrase of how a King must lay down his life to stop the strife of his peoples' life Yes it meant the ultimate sacrifice but it also showed unselfish love above his own to condone him being thrown
She now knew what she must do to stop this onslaught that brought strife to the Chaco's lives Despite her dislike of the diety type She wrote a note to the Kurupi stating that the Chaco state wished to remunerate him for his help with the Draco whelps and tied it to a pigeon which she promptly positioned towards the jungle and released

That night while all the Chacos sat and chat about possible combat with the Draco The Kurupi showed quite embolden with the thought that Lilly might tie the knot now that they are fraught with danger from his secret onslaught

Kurupi: Greetings Gran Chaco kind I hear you are maligned by the Draco and are in need of an assist with their kind

Lilly: "It is I that asked you for an assist to remove the Draco from our midst."

Kurupi: "That would take a powerful spell." "One that would drain my life force as well." "That is something more than just gold can cajole." "I would need something retrieved to fit my needs before I would concede to this impede."

Lilly: "What is it you seek to meet your needs?"

Kurupi: "Why you, of course, to take my hand as my wife for the rest of your life."

Lillie's eyes then got double-sized Her lip is bit quietly in thought A feeling of distraught has been brought This offer to tie the knot is something she doesn't want but, then she is caught gazing lovingly at her people All the Chaco mold young and old looking up to her for console She then remembers what her father had taught and didn't want his sacrifice to be all for nought

Lilly: "If you can prevent the Draco impede on the Chaco Make them recede and allot our freedom Then I would concede to your decree and be your wife."

The Chacos all cringe at the Kurupi's infringe but worry more of what's in store for Lilly to bore this load all on her own It isn't fair to be forced to marry such an ugly creature with such nasty beastly features of course

Kurupi: "I will immediately proceed my Queen and prevent any further impede to suit your needs."

The Kurupi then raises his hands, chants an incant, this manifestation creates a gate for him to escape Then in a blink quick as a wink he was gone

Minutes later you could hear the Draco screaming as if something unseen had been attacking their hijacking The Chaco all ran out to see giant plant roots shoot out of the ground in which they were formally bound and become wound round the Draco breed quietly completely unseen No matter how fast they fled each one was picked like grapes from a vine and pulled into the jungle divide to be retrieved surrounded by leaves
The mighty Khret wasn't having it he jumped on his dragon and bravely flew into the sky to safety Once airborne, he sounded his conch horn to warn the Draco forlorn to follow suit Pretty soon the...
