[Flashback] Speaking to a Crazy Person! (Nero and Fenilen)

[Nero Falcar]

30th day of summer, 508

Nero stood in the courtyard of the sky, it was without a doubt his favourite place, he spent hours there looking up at the sky and dreaming about when he would be free. His young falcon Tar was sitting near by preening his feathers. The thirteen year old took a deep breath and looked up at the giant eagles flying high above the volcano. He loved summer the sky was at its most beautiful and he could taste freedom. Sometimes he and the other Yasi would venture from the volcano and see who was brave enough (Or stupid enough to stray the furthest away from the safety of Wind Reach, Nero held the record for that going so far that a monster had come after him. And that was the first time he rode an eagle, an Endal had been merciful enough to save him. In his young foolish mind the scolding he received was well worth the ride upon the majestic, if the Endal had only known how that would set alight his imagination and hunger for adventure, well the Endal probably would have let the monster eat him.

Nero sighed glancing at the entrances to the courtyard, he had been waiting for over an hour for Fenilen to arrive. The older Inata was a good friend of the Yasi. He looked up at him like a big brother and when he was first taken from his family he had followed Fenilen around like a little lost puppy. They had formed a brotherly relationship and Nero didn’t know what he would do if he ever lost the Inarta.

Tar let out a call before taking flight and gliding to Nero’s side, it was as if Tar was telling him to get his head out of the clouds as he called out repeatedly to the Yasi. With an absent mind Nero stroked the falcon’s small head and hummed a song to sooth the avian. The falcon settled down and went back to preening his feathers while sitting beside what he saw as his charge. The proud falcon had taken it upon himself to look after the day dreaming child.
