The Journey, Chapter 41 = previous chapter
Chapter 42; Elqiana
Loki flew high up, in the clouds, heading straight for the cliffs, he could feel the dewy cold water droplets forming on his wings, they felt refreshing to him, he liked being a raven simply because they were mysterious, and clever creatures. They fascinated him. The bluey black wings, to their small beady all knowing black eyes. They were a marvel. Others took the shape of wolves, or cats, or squirrels, some even insects like a dung beetle, but no, not him, he chose a raven. The first ever elf to choose this shapeshifting form and he revelled in it.
Loki came up to the mid-peak of the Termini Cliffs, and there waiting for him was the largest most beautiful opal white creature ever to exist, Elqiana, daughter of Zeindaryss the Swift, so magnificent the rays from the sun made her scales glisten and sparkle like diamonds.
He straightened his wings and dropped down, as he dove towards her. Elqiana stood up stretched her claws digging into the ground as her back arched like a cat would. Much to the annoyance of Elqiana, Loki found it humorous that Tabby the werecat lay on the dragon's head in a waking sleep.
He landed with a soft thump on a broken tree stump, “Well met Elqiana, O’mighty one.” He said bowing, keeping eye contact. “Well met Tabby” Tabby opened her eyes gave Loki a soft purr and closed her eyes again
‘Tarasque stirs in her slumber, she speaks in her sleep, I hear her talk but I can’t reach her. Tell me raven, what’s happening?’
“Hmm…” Loki looks back down the cliffs in the direction of where Neko would be underneath the willow tree. “It seems that the prophecy is more and more likely true. Message has already been sent to my queen, she agrees it's time to set everything in motion. They are after all going to need all the help they can get.”
Elqiana grunted in acknowledgement. Tabby purred and stretched, and curled back on on the dragon’s snout. “Your enemy has started to put two and two together. It seems they know who you are, raven.” The werecat said slowly
“How? How is that possible? Only the queen knows who I am… Either way it was bound to happen sooner I suppose.”
‘What of Tara though? I grow wary of this waiting, it’s been too long already. Vivi speaks to the big-four-leg-fur-fangs like they’d have the answers he’s looking for’
“Vivi is wise, there must be something others have overlooked…” Loki said in deep thought.
'You had trouble in the marshes. I'm happy you all made it through.' Elqiana stated matter-of-factly.
“Yes, thank you for your assistance. Was it you that took over his body, to help?”
Elqiana looked at raven confusion in her eyes, ‘Nay, raven it wasn’t me’
“If it wasn’t you, and it wasn’t me, then who was it? This is concerning… very concerning.”
Tabby jumped down from the dragon’s snout and walked towards Loki, in her mouth was a silver chain with a swallow pendant hanging on it. “To him, it belongs!”
The werecat started to walk towards the edge of the cliffs, turning back she mocked a bow at Elqiana, “Thank you, for your company O’fair one!” And then jumped from the edge of the cliff, landing on the hidden path.
‘Strange four-legged-fur-ball’ Elqiana stood up, and looked over the cliffs, glancing to the right, and then back to the left.
‘Loki, get to him fast! There is trouble close by!’ Elqiana started abruptly.
Loki picked up the necklace in his talons and took off to fly back to Nekonata, he spread his wings and dropped from the edge of the Cliff. He could see an army approaching Edena. He turned his head to look back at Elqiana but she was already gone. Loki flapped his wings as fast as he could…
Nekonata was asleep under the willow tree when he felt the ground begin to tremble. He sat bolt upright. He saw Loki approaching faster than he knew the raven could fly. Santaya and Kristolia were stood up, fur stuck up, ears twitching and eyes darting in every direction. Kimbo the horse was snorting loudly. Loki flew straight down and Nekonata caught Loki as he crashed into his chest.
“Danger, Army” Loki squawked.

The Journey, Chapter 43
Chapter 43, Humarf’s “Shit” Neko jumped up onto Kimbo's saddle and stood up in the stirrups. “They are close, I don't know if we can make it,” Nekonata commented. He kicked his mount into a gallop and they all charged across the fields. A roaring cheer came from the army as they saw him fleeing...
