Ellion Mateu "Really, I don't understand how you manage to slip away from your duties so easily." Ryu chuckled quietly at his brother's remark and ran a hand through his gryphon's feathers. "The same way you slip away from your own duties, Aran." Aran smirked and shook his head. "Very different circumstances, Ryu. I'm not needed around the Guarde twenty-four seven. You, on the other hand, are." At those words, the lord hummed thoughtfully, as if he were actually pondering on his brother's words. "I highly doubt that I'm needed during every waking hour of the day, Aran. I am human, after all. I do need a break from time-to-time." "Well, maybe you should have thought about that before you took over the throne." Ryu rolled his eyes at this. "I didn't exactly have much of a choice, you know, Aran. You ran off and joined the Aven Guarde which left only me to take the crown." The lord crossed his arms and leaned against a tree, smirking playfully at his brother, who returned the grin. The two seemed to get along better than most siblings. In fact, the two having a fight was unheard of. It was almost abnormal, how well Ryu and Aran got along. "Oh, by the way, Aran." The brown-haired man looked up from his crimson red dragon and faced his brother. "Hm?" "I hear you've been having some issues with the Free Riders?" Aran blew out a sigh. "Ah, yes. Those ones. I have nothing against them, but some have no courtesy. Honestly. I believe Morgan's sibling has made more than one appearance during our patrol over Velderoth..." Ryu smirked. "Looks like the past has come back to haunt you, eh?" The Aven Guarde captain shook his head before mounting his dragon. "Yes, it seems to be so. In any case, I need to be getting back to the Guarde. I'll be seeing you around." Ryu wave off his brother as he and his dragon disappeared into the distance, most likely back to Velderoth. The lord sighed and crossed his arms over his chest. "The past, hm? If only I had more time to think about that..."

This was his usual hang out spot. Far enough away from the city to be at least somewhat uninhabited. There was always something new to explore out here, and that always made his day. Of course, today he had decided that it was time to actually go about looking for a town to sell off his goods. After all, there was only so much stuff he and his gryphon could carry. So, the two flew about, hopping from one floating island to the next, hoping to find something, or someone of interest.
It was about then that he saw them, just as the one on the dragon was taking off. The Guarde. He wasn't too fond of them. But hey, at least he hadn't been arrested for anything... yet.
But there was something else that caught his eye really. Another gryphon. Royalty. His blood. His kin. "Aye, let's turn around, eh?" He patted the side of his beloved companion's neck, the dark gryphon making some sort of squawking noise as he shifted himself to turn. But by then it was probably too late. His brother had probably no doubt seen him by then. Hopefully he wouldn't put up much of a chase...
Ellion ordered his companion to land on a nearby island, hopping off and running into a small line of trees for some sort of cover. That would be nice, wouldn't it? But he knew it was unlikely. If his brother did decide to show up... Well, at least he could have some sort of nice meal waiting for him. "C'mon, let's set up camp, hmm?"

[attr="class","ListenToTheStereo"] R [attr="class","LastCross"]yu watched as his brother disappeared into the distance before turning his attention back to his gryphon and running his fingers through the creature's soft feathers. He was about to go back to Velderoth when the sound of a bird's cry caught his attention. Ryu turned to see the retreating form of a boy and his gryphon. The lord raised a brow silently at the sight. A gryphon thief, perhaps? No, that couldn't be right... he had heard no such news of someone taking a gryphon from the stables. The creature hardly looked wild, too. It looked as if it had been trained well since birth. Perhaps... Ryu mounted his own companion and gave chase. Ryu only just caught a brief glimpse of the boy disappearing under the cover of the trees, and promptly landed his companion a short distance away from his presumed position, deciding to walk the rest of the way. "Well, it seems I wasn't chasing a gryphon thief after all." We stand alone among the restless seasons | [attr="class","Miracle"] |

It wasn't like he had met them exactly. Sure, he knew of them, and they knew of him. But the last time they had seen each other he had been quite young. It wasn't like he really wanted to keep in touch with his royal half brothers. But, if he had no choice, then he had no choice. Ellion went about setting up camp in a little clearing not too far from the tree line. He knew it would probably be only a matter of minutes before whoever it was to follow him and reach his destination. Maybe he'd get lucky and he wouldn't. But he doubted that.
"Oi! Aye! Get yer ass away from the fire before you singe yer damn feathers again!" The gryphon shook itself a bit, it's feathers ruffling up before it pranced off into the trees. "Ya better come back with somethin' ta eat!" Ellion rolled his eyes and shook his head a bit. "Damn overgrown pigeon sometimes with as stupid as he can be..." Not that he was talking to anyone in particular, just muttering to himself as he built the fire a bit.
After a moment, he plopped himself down on a nearby rock, just staring at the fire he built, watching it burn and crackle. He seriously wondered how exactly this little inevitable meeting was gonna go. What had it been? Ten years? At least... He shook his head and let out a soft sigh, moving a bit of his long, dark hair from his face. Any minute now...

[attr="class","ListenToTheStereo"] T [attr="class","LastCross"]he lord took his time tracking down the gryphon rider, not really wanting to burst through the trees and potentially give the poor boy a heart attack. He wandered how long it had been since he had seen his half brother. It wasn't unheard of for his father to have a fling every now and then, so an illegitimate son was inevitable. Ryu couldn't have been any older than 25 when he last caught a glimpse of the boy. Not that they really got a chance to know each other back then. Aran had joined the Aven Guarde and Ryu was to inherit the throne, so getting to know his half brother wasn't an option at the time. He would have liked to keep in contact, but that was also not possible. A shame, really. He really would have liked to gotten to know him more, but the boy in question seemed unwilling. Ah well. He wouldn't exactly have a choice this time around. Quietly, Ryu and Kanta emerged into the opening. "Well now, it's been quite a while, hasn't it, Ellion?"

It wasn't like he hated his half brothers or anything. He just never really had the need to see them. But still, the voice that reached his ears made him sigh a bit. Of course he had expected the man to follow him, why wouldn't he? "Ryu wasn't it?" He mentioned, a slight tone of sarcasm in his voice. Of course he knew who it was. Who wouldn't? "So what brings a high and mighty king all the way out here, hmm?"
Not that it really mattered. "I'd say have a seat, but all we got out here is rocks and dirt." Maybe he thought it too fancy for his royal kingness to sit his pretty little behind on. "Ayeriel is out catchin' something for dinner, hopefully." Not that he'd expect his half brother to eat anything from the wilderness. He honestly had no idea what to expect from the man, and literally just assumed he'd act like some sort of typical royal brat. "Speak o' the devil..." He muttered, his dark gryphon returning to the clearing with a few rabbits dangling from it's beak, all sorts of leaves and twigs and mud within it's feathers. "Oi... Aye, you damn pigeon... Do you even see how dirty your ass is?" Ellion sighed and shook his head as the gryphon moved over to drop it's catch at it's masters feet. His feathers ruffled a bit upon seeing the other gryphon. "Settle yer shit, Aye. Show some respect for the mighty king of Velderoth and his pretty little pet."

[attr="class","ListenToTheStereo"] P [attr="class","LastCross"]eople were difficult to understand. Ryu had quickly learnt that after taking the throne after his late father. There were just some things about people that one would never really understand until the right time, such as why a vast majority or the Aven Guarde and the king's guard seemed to hate Free Riders with a burning passion, and why Ellion seemed to hold a special dislike for Ryu. He honestly couldn't understand why. They had never really had any contact aside from simply seeing each other in passing. Aside from that, they basically didn't exist in the other's life. As far as he knew, he hadn't run into any trouble with the Aven Guarde or any branch of the millitary, for that matter. He would have heard about it pretty quickly if that were the case. If not from Aran, then most likely from Ren. "This wouldn't be the first time I've left Velderoth." He said. His voice wasn't overly kind, but it wasn't frustrated, either. He spoke to the boy the same way he would to anyone else. Unlike his father, he didn't really believe in any class structure and treated everyone as equals, unless they had done something to evoke his ire. He crossed his arms over his chest and sighed, shaking his head a little as Ellion continued to speak. He wasn't even trying to hide the fact that he wanted nothing to do with him. Kanta, who had been standing silently by Ryu's side, perked up when the other gryphon entered the area, and basically scoffed at the other bird's reaction to him. Ryu placed a hand on the side of his companion's neck to silence him. "I can see that you aren't particularly fond of me, Ellion." Ryu said. "But please humour me and explpain why you seem to dislike me. If it's something that my father has done to you or your mother, please allow me to apologise on behalf of him."

The younger male sighed and moved a bit of his long dark hair out of the way of his face. But he shook his head. "No.. It's... I don't know really. It's not personal really. I mean look at me. I'm a free rider. I go where I want, do what I want. Most of them are against the whole regime thing right? Only fits." He shrugged a bit and moved to pick up the rabbits his idiot gryphon had dropped in his spaz attack. "Maybe I should cook you..." He muttered, removing a knife from his belt. "Uhh... Hopefully you're not the queasy type, eh?"
But it wasn't really like he cared. He was going to skin, gut, and cook these rabbits, whether or not the older male stayed. And he didn't really bother giving much warning about it either, just sitting back down on his rock (or was it a log?) and slitting them apart. The dark gryphon hovered by it's human, waiting for it's own meal, more than happily gobbling up anything tossed it's way.
"How about you?" Ellion held up a string of intestines towards the other gryphon. So maybe he should have toned it down a bit, but he was new at this socializing thing and hey, gryphons liked food right? It wasn't like it took him too long to skin the rabbits either, hanging their pelts a bit to dry out. And then he skewered the meat on a few sticks, placing them up against the fire he had built. "Sorry if this bothers you at all. But this is how I live. I have no need for a roof or fancy foods. This is good enough for us."
