T.E.L.O.W. - The Elemental Land Of Wonders

Chapter 17 | Chasm the Ice dragon

"Oh my gosh sweety! I'm so sorry I am late! Oh and your freezing cold! Here wear this!" She explained in shock covering her mouth with her hands. She quickly handed me the parka and turned around, shamed at herself for forgetting about me. "Hey thanks! You seem nice! I'm glad the blizzard brought me to you!" I cheered. She slowly turned her head and sat down with a small thud in the snow. "I am? I-I mean I am! It's just that I have never been complimented in a very long time!" She replied. "When? Was it the previous chosen one? What were they like?" I asked politely. "Yes I have, they were the last one to compliment me. They were young and free spirited and they made friends where ever they went, until they left T.E.L.O.W. Poor child was filled with amazing adventures that lasted a liftime until it had to end. Any who where are my manners! We have to get you to a safer place! Follow me!" She explained. As we were walking through the blizzard i asked her a few questions, most commonly about Ice. "Um not to brag but, can't you fly me there and where are we going?" I questioned, curiously wondering if she is able to fly. "Well i can, but you cannot get on my back because your not yet ice resistant, you'll freeze into ice even though the parka is made of ice leather. Also we are going to my library and home, my home is in my library, my library is my home, well you get the point. Do you dear?" She stated. Well that makes sense why the parka is bluish-brown. "Yes, i get it. By the way is ice always this cold though? Even in this parka i am still cold just less cold." I said. "Well yes, but we have a special invention i made. I combined warmth with a speck of eternal luminescent ice, so that non-ice resistant beings like you can survive in warmth." She scientifically explained. "Sounds hard to make where do you even get ice like that if you don't mind me asking?" I asked. "The well of Isabelle, the second queen of Ice, she would wish by her well that she created when the stars are out and when an aura was lit. Anything she would wish for would come true, but since she passed. Those special ice are the only things you could ever get. Short answer, it comes by the well as shooting star." She said. "Oh, well what happens if the well gets destroyed?" I asked. "I don't really know, but by predictions either no more or alot more shooting stars, which means they could destroy things at high strong speeds." She said. "What happened to her? Isabelle? How did she, you know?" I questioned. "Fire killed her in a war, she lead the way as her parents died to destroy their enemy. Though all they did was stop them for millions of years, now that the statues are missing thier pieces, they can come again." She angered. "Never mind that, now, only a few minutes until we make it to my library." She said. A few minutes feels like an hour, so instead of flying on a dragon we have to walk with 4 and 2 legs. Feels like the farther we go, the more cold it gets and I don't know how long i can last. Soon the silents broke with a question "Oh I'm sorry dear! We haven't ment well! What is your name?" She said. "Madeline." I said. "Oh what a lovely name! Mines Chasm! Like the word, it means a very great difference between anything." Chasm said. "Whats so different about you?" I asked. "Whats different about me is that I am the smartest dragon in all of them." Chasm told. "Thats strange? Is there a reason for your given name? Don't you think it's a bit odd of a name for you?" I questioned nervously. "Well your right on that, it is quite strange isn't it? I believe when I was in the hundreds no more, I was a young and clumsy cub. One day my mother lost something valuable to her like a necklace and I managed to find it." She said. "Was it your senses?" I asked. "Oh no dear, I was finding a bunch of things under 5fts of snow, been doing it for years. At that time my father told me that I was very different from the other dragons and that being different ment being perfect. Though as I grew he also told me that perfect is not always perfect and I could understand that." Chasm said. "Can I meet your parents Chasm?" I questioned. "I'm afraid not, they past a long time ago. "Chasm answered. "You don't look sad about it, how long ago till?" I asked. "Yeah I got over it thousands of years ago, time here flows real slow, you'd be almost 10,000 years old right now, the growth age is also slow." She calculated. "Oh, well sorry to remind you about that I was just curious, I gotta know everything as the cjosen one ya know?" I said. "I know, and it's ok to remind me. Dragons have great memories anyway so there is no need to remind me! Though sometimes I feel like some memories are best left forgotten." She wished. "I wish I can remember my memories to understand my past more." I said.
