Aryun Frostmourne's Story

The sheer size of the queens battleships in the western skies, couldn't be unnoticed - even by somebody as dense as Aryun. It is then, the boy noticed the chimera still hovering there, as if to show maximum disrespect after insulting him a 'wandering lady'. Though he was still standing there pointing the wooden stick to the east, his attention on the chimeras was redirected at the baron:

"That's east, child. West is the other way. In any case,

"O..Oo...Obviously this is the east!"

the boy is right. We must not delay. My apologies, Lady Cecilia, but you will have to carry the child with you." Aryun was astounded and embarassed about his disorientation at the same time. Astounded by the amount of insults, pointed towards him at the same time: first the chimara, showing maximum disrespect and now some old noble geezer, calling him a 'child'. Unforgivable: "O..Oo...Obviously this is the east - i just wanted to test the orientation sense of my future travel companions" - he changed the direction of the wooden stick to south. "Still i would prefer to go with Ashley" - it seemed nobody cared: the baron offered Cé-ci-li-a Na-u-dé the horse of his guardian and moved on.

"We may have an easy enough time of it in the plains, but keep a sharp eye and don't spread out, not all earth is as solid as it may appear" - Ashley wasn't even there anymore, riding ahead. What should the boy do? - He jumped on the horse, sitting back to back with the noble woman, puffing his cheeks angrily.

It was a long journey - two days by horse. After two days, they had to leave their horses behind. Especially Ashley made quite a drama about leaving his behind. It seemed he was really picky and he truly believed, he could talk to a horse - but the thing surprised Aryun even more, was that the horse seemed to understand and reply: "No way.." - the boy cleared his eyes. Though, his surprised expression changed into an expression of awe and excitement upon seeing a flying ship. It seemed his companions were about to get on the ship: "Awesome!"

Upon the ship lifting off, a sight opened before the boy - he
never saw before. Giant land masses were floating in the skies, surrounded by mystical arrangements of differently coloured clouds. "What kind of sorcery is this? -This is beautiful!" - Aryun leaned forward way too much, nearly falling out of the ship a few times. Flying sure was freeing, letting Aryun feel at ease as though he was light like a feather. It took a while for the boy to live out his excitement - restlessly running around the ship, looking at the surroundings from different areas. If one would mark all places the boy had been on at the ship - the whole ship would be marked three times. After some time, Aryun seemed to get a bit more accustomed to traveling in the skies, finally getting quite. All the excitement and running around drained his energy very fast. After looking for a quite corner, he dropped on the floor, snoring slightly. He was awakened few hours later by Sis Nada screaming around: "Everyone! Please assist me! Head to the captains cabin! We have to speak some sense into him". He raised himself, still sleepy - as he saw Sis Nada running to the captains cabin: "Are we already there? Wozzup Sis Nada - you need to land the ship? " Aryun looked at the island they were howering over. The sight of dead and injured soldiers lying around didn't faze him. Seeing a single soldier fighting off the masses however, impressed the boy. Aditionally he seemed to be a knight of the late king - the boys eyes sparkled: " Decided! - We're landing! Ladies and Gentlemen, please hold onto something!" - a smile appeared on Aryuns face, as he shot one of the ships engines with an ice splitter. This caused the ship to incline towards the isle, falling right at the battlefield. With some luck the crashing would squash the masses of dark clothed soldiers. Nearing the ground the boy jumped from the ship, rushing off towards the knight.

After shooting one of the engines, Aryun put one foot on the rails - trying to adjust the distance. With one engine still running, the ship was falling too slow for his taste. But at least it was landing at all and like this, there was time to jump before the crash. Aryun pointed out the target location aiming with his thumb, as he heard some panicking voice coming from behind.

"What the hell are you doing? We're already tempting fate on this contraption and you have to go and start breaking things while were FLYING IN THE AIR." - Ashley desperately sprinted towards the cargo crane.

"Why, landing obviously... " - Aryun scratched his head - he couldn't understand the commotion. It was a long moment of thought, before the boy could grasp the situation. He narrowed his eyes, putting on a wide evil smile: "Do i smell fear, horse whisperer? Stay here, would you! Go down with the ship, facing the wind standing on the front line rails - like a real captain! Arrr... " But Ashley already fled the sinking ship via the rope of the cargo crane. It was a pretty amusing sight, how the ranger made his way down faster than the ship itself. Seeing Ashley rolling around upon landing, Aryun shouted from above while standing on the rails, preparing to jump: "Arr...Prepare yourselves, landrats! Horse whisperer you distract them since you're already down, while i make my way to the knight - can't have a real hero fall here! HeHeHe... "
