Sorry it took me more than I thought , but here it is, I hope you enjoy it

look at the end of the chapter for author notes

  Only three remaining days to reach the center of the fire land, nothing in sight changed, it's the same deserted surroundings: the dark brown earth with hot boiling lava flowing inside the cracks, giant and different shaped rocks scattered around, no plants not even the thorn plants they saw at the outskirts of the land of fire.

It was dusk; the flying Alicorns made it to the ground, touching the surface with their strong hooves leaving cracked deep traces. Trek scrambled on four retching his stomach contents, beads of sweat starting to form on his forehead, his face paling instantaneously, when he felt better he leaned back on his forearm panting slightly:" I'm not sure which's better; flying in the high sky or descending to the scalding burning ground, I don't remember it being this hot the other time we were here".

-That's simple because: first of all, this is the hottest point in the fire realm, it's like a natural mechanism against intruders, by sipping their energy slowly and making them walk in circles till they meet their own death, only those who are familiar with the circumstances can avoid such risks, so you're lucky to have me with you. But unfortunately the second reason is that this is the hottest time of the year, even some fire gormians find it unbearable because of the heat, so be careful and have lots of water. Especially you Ikor. And he turned in his hills looking to his mentioned friend.

-You should tell that to Trek and Eron not me. pointing with his head to his sprawled earth friend and their slumping and so quite windie.

-That's strange you should be the most affected between us, yet you look so relaxed like you are used to the heat like Riff do. Does it have something to do with your light powers. Remarked Ao-Ki. <The powers I still don't believe you possess because it's just impossible>. She thought to herself

-That's right Ao-Ki, I assume it's not a mystery anymore to see me doing things that a normal gormian can't do. He answered helping his friend take the medication he brought from his home at the beginning of the journey, believing that he will need them...

-Hmmmm, I never heard about such spells, care to teach them to me. She said challengingly.

-I believe you are the guardian of knowledge, a simple spell like that, you should have the knowledge about, He challenged back pressing the word knowledge out. Looking directly in the eyes of his friend from his crouching position in the ground.

That's it, she had enough for today from the long journey to the increasing heat and now the offensive words of the ice gormian:" I beg your pardon your highness, for my ignorance, but could you drop a little from your high horse and explain to me or more accurately to all of us, how an ice gormian have the magic of light when I am the only and last descended of light for the past twenty years"

-Oh how old are you exactly. said Eron, receiving a death glare from his fire friend who interjected himself between the two breaking their glaring match after feeling a suffocating sensation hanging in the air crawling its way on his skin leaving goosebumps, remarking in the back of his head that neither of his wind nor rock friend felt the same heaviness he felt:" guys what's the matter now, can't we have one single day without fighting on the slightest things, what happened to the fun journey we were supposed to have. Things keep accelerating the negative way by each passing day, please just forget about everything and just enjoy yourselves. I am curious like you Ao-Ki about all that but I'm sure the time will come when we have all of our questions answered, right Ikor. He said finally looking to his friend pleadingly.
