Jason clutched the black dragon, holding onto him tightly, and they circled back around. The landscape below them was undulating grassland, a flowing hillside that would have been lovely under other circumstances. Not under the current one, though. He saw small copses of trees, clusters of flowers, and grasses that looked to be as tall as he was. The air carried with it the fragrance of the flowers, the warmth of the sun, and just a hint of humidity.

He turned his attention back to the dragon. He could see through the ice dragon’s eyes that the blue dragon needed him.

“Why do you have the bone?” Jason asked the black dragon.

“They did not say,” the dragon said.

It was part of some plan Lorach had, but Jason didn’t know what it was, and he didn’t know what it would take to overthrow what Jessica intended. All he knew was that they had some plan.

He let out a frustrated sigh.

He came to land next to the blue dragon, and he looked down. The blue dragon rested on a mountainside, trees rising up near him and heat radiating off him.

His belly bled.

“You can go,” Jason said, looking over at the black dragon. “There are other free dragons. Find them. Stay away from Lorach.”

“I can help,” the dragon said.

“You have helped.”

He hurried over to the blue dragon, resting his hands on the dragon’s side, immediately calling upon ice and iron, trying to pour the two of them together, wanting to find some way to connect to the dragon in order to heal him, to help him, but even as he did, Jason doubted that he had enough strength to do so. He doubted there would be anything within him that would help.

As he pushed power outward, sending it flowing into the blue dragon, he could feel it flowing into an abyss. An emptiness. A void.

“Stop,” the dragon said.

“I can help you,” Jason said.

The ice dragon landed and Janeya climbed down, crouching down next to Jason, looking at the blue dragon.

“Stop,” the dragon said again.

“But I can help.”

“You have helped enough,” the dragon said.

“I can help.” Jason tried again.

The dragon twisted his head, looking at Jason. “You are everything he hoped you might be.”

“I can do more for you,” Jason said.

Why did this dragon’s sufferings hurt him more than others?

Maybe because the dragon had always been free. Maybe because this was the last connection he had to David. Or maybe because Jason felt as if he should have been able to help.

“Find the rest,” the blue dragon said.

“The rest of what? Dragons? I’m trying to find them. I’m trying to understand what I need to do.”

“The rest of the ancestors,” the blue dragon said.

He stared at Jason and in a flash, a vision appeared in Jason’s mind. It was that of power, and yet, within it was a smoky appearance, something of a haze, and beyond that was a soft glowing, as if there were energy within it.

“What is it?”

“The ancestors,” the blue dragon said.

“Let me help you,” Jason said.
