Mage and Arkan - Complete

Carai Tribe

The next day Scarlett and Volemìr reached the enterance of the cave where the Lirkam's tribe the Carai lives. The guards reconized the two Arkans tied up and asked Volemìr what they have done to be brought here like this.

Volemìr told them this is something he needs to discuss with their Chief about in private. The guards looked at Scarlett and saw the ring around her ancle before looking back at Volemìr saying.

" You may go see Chief Kaireth, just keep the human close by..." Volemìr nooded his head and went into the cave with Scarlett and the two Arkans.

They rode through the large tunnel of the cave for a few minutes before Scarlett said to Volemìr. " Could you tell me a bit about the Arkans that live here?"

Volemìr lookes at her and said with a calm look on his face. " Didnt Lirkam tell you about his Tribe before he cut at your back?" She looked at him and said with a thoughtful look in her eyes.

" He only told me what my kind has done, like killing the livestocks and letting them starve throughout the winter... even losing his pregnant wife in the process..." 

Volemìr looked down at his Larkam's mane and said to her. " I see... well, all you need to know is that these people are very defensive and protective over their food and livestock after what happend.

They even wont let their childeren outside fearing the same fate that befell my little Brother and the others..." Scarlett lookes at him and said with a sad look on her face.

" I see... so they wish to be very careful since what happend to..." She stopped herself before she finished the sentence and said as she looked away from him.

" Is the other tribes like this? so aggressive towards humans and defensive of their families?" Volemìr nooded his head and said to her. " Yes, some of the other tribes had horrible things happen to them because of you humans.

But there is one Tribe that didnt have any problem with humans..." Scarlett looked at him and said getting a unsetteling feeling in her chest. " one Tribe dont have any problems with humans?"

He nooded his head and said with a thoughtful look on his face. " Yes, there is one Tribe that is very hard to find because it is location is hidden to the ones who is not blood related to them."

Scarlett looked at him and said to him. " I see... so it is impossible to find, at least one Tribe is unharmed... Question, if you wish to go to talk to their Chief do you need to find someone who is blood related to that Tribe?"

Volemìr has a smile on his face hearing her question witch made the young woman even more curious and said to him. " What? why are you smiling?" 

Volemìr looked at her while still having a smile on his face as he said to her. " I tell you when we get back to the village." Scarlett was about to say something when they reached the end of the tunnel and enterd the large cave with huts.

Small pens where the animals is being kept and feed as small streams of water flows into medium sized bowls. glowing crystals in the walls of the cave, giving Scarlett a warm welcoming feeling even though the Arkans of this tribe lookes at her with distrust.

A young woman stepped out of the large hut at the far back of the cave and said to Volemìr with a serious look on her face. " Chief Volemìr of Lorkor, what brings you here with a human and my cousin's friends?"

Volemìr looked at the young Arkan and said to her. " Hello, Lyro... I need to talk to your Father about that..." Lyro saw the look in his eyes for a few secounds before saying with a growl in her voice.

" Go inside, the human stays out here..." Volemìr thanked her before getting off he and Scarlett got off their Larkams and went into the hut. Scarlett had a look of awe upon seeing the beautiful carvings on the walls depicting past chiefs of the Carai tribe.
