The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

Since you have so few subjects, you will probably not be  be granted the status of a visiting leader..." Tarrax mused. "Although, you may be allowed to keep your title and be given the greeting "Your majesty', that will likely be it.."

"I see" Bahumut said looking at Tarrax

Lurna didn't say anything she could see that her father wasn't totally happy with it, from what she heard and knew he was a king from the point he was born. He wasn't like any other king, he would get his claws durity and help his fellow dragons. He would do more then any King would do he even dragged his friend Stripetail the one Bahumut well knew to help out by draging him along for the ride. There was so much about him that only his followers and her knew.

A King of Dragons unlike any other, might have powers beyond and normal dragon but his heart was in the right place even a being between light and dark he would see his dragons as a family a massive family. Lurna held her cage with the pet dragon looking at it "My father is not a every day king isn't he? Whitey?" Lurna said to the little white dragon it nodding cheerfully. Tarrax heard her and wondered what she meant by not a every day King.
Wonder what he did to make him different to a king that just sat on a throne all day signing papers and stuff  that a King would do even a Dragon King would do it as well.

Tarrax replied."In our dimension sir , yes.. I understand that things may be different here, but he has earned the right to be granted the status of a king... I ask you to reconsider..."

"I know your thinking about me... but I don't want you all to get in trouble. I know back in my time I am caring and you was too, all of you. I am greatful for what you did to save me from being found by the time of the changing winds." Bahumut said to them "I am still that caring soul for those that follow me, I would do nothing to betray your trusts... For the deeds you all did... I haven't repaided, I would like you all to take one bag each of the gold that was given to my temple over the time I was asleep. It might not be much but I like to return a gift for helping me" Bahumut said to them

another shook her head "we don't want gold Bahumut, your our king and you treat all those around you that see you as their king as a king... when you first came to age we never knew what would happen but since that time all the dragons... even we the last of the followers was happy, cheerful and lead very peaceful lives even the darken souled dragons saw you as their king a respect they held and they never harming another dragon cause of what you did and what inflences you had on all us Dragons. We don't want to see you put down in such a way that make you saddened... if it risk causing us to be in trouble for what we trurly see as right for you our King. King Bahumut. We would take it for you, you earned it through the years no one has the rights to take it all away from you cause of some stupid idiots greedly used magic for themselves." the follower took a breaver then finished what she was saying

"We all be taught under you to respect magic and non-magic treat it as one big picture that we must use wisely who taught us that?" she asked

"Me" Bahumut said softly

"Yes you Bahumut, the king of Dragons your turly are more then a legend" she'd said and the others noding they claped their claw hands together and then raise then while they was in a cirle creating a ring of light and dark then it fades to nothing Bahumut looked up and smiled then looked at each and one of them

"Thank you... thank you all" he said with a few tears of happiness looking at them.

Stripetail saw a soft side that was amazed to see on Bahumut at leasted

So there is a kind side to you, underneath that hard exterior. " Stripetail said, a wry smile on his face.

 Tarrax gave Bahumut a long look. "I will dicuss your standing with the Council tommorow, I request that you be present. In the meantime, Welcome to Dragomalin" he stretched out his claw to Bahumut...

"it was very common magic till the time of Ice when many started to use their magic against the races that became humaniod like the first kind of humans of Earth, I tried to defend them against those that wanted to harm them, I did for most part from a large faction... so that why many humans till this day knew about me and created stories some good some bad or even evil." Bahumut said to Tarrax.

"I am between dark and light though so there would be two sides of a story just to keep my own balance in check while I was sleep for all those years" Bahumut said to him. "but the symbol magic I know is kind of different and stronger then anything seem, I was intrusted with them and only I and my child or anyone in our blood line can open up the stone books" Bahumut said and quickly brought one out Tarrax blinked for a second he never seen a book with pages made out of thing sheets of stone before.

"Not only that, they weigh more then you think they do, this would be about 6 to 7 tones" Bahumut said to Tarrax. "try and open it, you will find you could just open the cover but in a fraction of a second close back up on you and go back to the shelf" Bahumut stats

7 tons? A heavy book but.." Tarrax with a great exhertation opened the cover and proceeded to flip page after page with bursts of effort, to the utter amazement of  Bahumut's followers.  After he had flipped through around 10 pages, he stopped and let the book close again, which it did in a instant. "I can open it. I'm no ordinary dragon myself Bahumut...  Now, I couldn't read what was in the book, it must be a language that only you know. " Tarrax said.
_ Bahumut's followers shook their heads, they had never seen another creature who was not among thier bloodline be able to lift off the cover, let alone flip through the pages. You just lifted more than 70 tons of magical rock!" One of them said to him. "I'm in very good shape, sir" Tarrax said.
_
Stripetail smiled. "My friend Tarrax is very strong physically, he can lift  several tons. as he just proved to you. He can't read it, so the exercise was just a showcase of physical strength. He'll be feeling it in the morning." He laughed.

"The magic would have made it impossible for any to read, it muffers the words so who has strong strength that opens it and fight the magic with stregth wouldn't be able to read the writing cause to the eyes it all more or less words that doesn't even make sense" Bahumut said to Tarrax. "Lurna show what happens when someone of my blood line opens it"

Lurna nods taking the book and flip through the pages like it was light as feathers to the end and the close it up "Well it still weigh a bit but luckly the book uses some strange energy to make it slightly lighter for me to hold up" Lurna said to Tarrax giving the book back to her father "that book I am not aloud to read yet, so I just flipped the pages only"

"Yes your still just learning the basic magic in the other books this is for someone in the medium magic range of this type of magic and non-magic" Bahumut said to her.

"Father how about you show your mega flare?" Lurna asked going to a large rock and lifting it up

"well since you've shown the strength of a our kind with such ease for someone your age, why not" Bahumut said and Lurna throws it up towards the sky. Bahumut opened his mouth a energy formed then a powerful flare shot up hitting the rock with a massive explosion, Tarrax saw no pieces the rock was totally destoryed.

very impressive" Tarras nodded. looking at where the rock had been. "You're a very powerful dragon Bahumut." Then he noticed Incanur. "What is HE doing here master? I thought he was in prison?'
-
"I'm on parole" Incanur replied.

"his my best friend and even he made mistakes in the past I trust him that he can do more then he says half of the time" Lurna said with a smile, Incanur looked at her and seem to be in another of those traces that Snowpaw been calling it she saw this and nudge Stripetail and he looking at Incanur.

"Smitten, Incanur?" Stripetail smiled. This snapped Incanur of the 'trance' and he glowered at Stripetail. "Hardly brother.." he said coldly. "Thaen what is with the intense staring at Lurna?" Stripetail asked. "Shut up!' Incanur exploded. "there is nothing between us , except froiendship, and that is mostly one'sided. that's all!" He stormed away. 'Mr. Incanur, you'll get lost..' one of the attendant called after him. "I know this planet well.." came Incanur's reply as he continued walking.

"Not when it comes to only flying can get out of my temple radios." Bahumut spoke and just behind them Incanur stood he blinked a few times and looked back then at them again "The temple has a sort of protection spell well some call it a curse. It creates a dimensional puzzle that makes it almost impossible to leave by foot, only flying or my symbol spells will get you out of its spell radios. it was created to stop theifs from getting away well the land type of course. the puzzle has to be done in a certen movement or your just going to go one way and walk up from another to the temple. the magic field is part of the temple itself. not even the type of teleport spell that Stripetail uses wouldn't work he would just appear some where else around the temple." Bahumut explained to Incanur

Now Incanur knew why one of the followers of Bahumut said he'll get lost and that what it meant a magical puzzle like he never seen before something that would drive anyone crazy to get out of the temple a perfect defence to protect which was in the temple.

Incanur muttered and walked back to the group. "We'll talk later.. brother" He said to Stripetail. "Don't you dare threaten me..' Stripetail replied in a low voice. "I'm not..' Incanur said. "I just want to talk to you privately."

Bahumut looked over them about to say something but then the doors of the chambers of past opens and spirts fly over and around Incanur "Past we see, past we know, past we found the answer to Incanur! his been cursed... cursed by unknown. his beginnings are at the First World... we see it we see it WE SEE IT!" they spoke out leaving them all bewilded at this.

"What are you talking about?" Bahumut asked them "what about Incanur and the First World? he never stood foot on it." Bahumut said to them

"We saw his past, we saw where he came from, His dragon, his dragon of First World, his memiors his life all deep in his mind, good soul, saved world from dark armies. First wizzins gave form, gave shadow over the ture, soon his mind awakes his light and dark shine. Understand he will" they kept saying

"So your telling me his some dragon?" Bahumut asked them

"Yes, your kind... your.... kind........." the voices faded away and the spirits went back in and the brick door slammed shut.

"My kind?" Bahumut whispers "could that be why he seem to stare at my child?" Bahumut spoke to himself and thought of something "I wonder" he took the book and throw it to Incanur, he caught it but everyone just stared seeing he was holding it easily as Bahumut did

Incanur dropped it as quickly as he caught it. "No!" his face turned pale.  "This cannot be..  Iam a wizzin.. and I have no intimate interest in your daughter." Can we go brother?' He said to Stripetail. "I wqant back in... and once I'm back in i can forget all this nonsense" Stripetail gave him a cold look.  "Alright... But we are going to have a long talk..." He turned to Bahumut. "Can you let us out please?'

"Never go" the spirts said creating a barrier around the temple stronger then a teleport symbol spell and even flying "Truth must be TOLD" the spirts of the past chamber said with a very serious tone that made everyone step back once when the spirits of the past chamber spoke Bahumut knew never to undermind their words

"They won't let anyone leave and anyone try before they finish you'll suffer by remembering it inch by inch without even able to fight it. The spirits of the Past Chamber once they begin they finish. So don't get them seriously annoyed" Bahumut said as they formed into figures with out legs just a tail they blue and see through the eyes glowing blue as well Stripetail had never seen spirits of this sort before other then in the Past Chambers.

"We have seen the truth,
you can not ignore cause
it your path which you take
Do not fight
Do not fear
This is ture and
Power be told
Dragon is Incanur
Incanur is Dragon
The turth is
Wizzin can be Dragon
Dragon can be Wizzin
DO not fear of losing it
See your past
Past your see
Bring fouth the last day
That you saved a Universal
From the feared Darkiness"

They sang out to them and then a blue light came out into the middle right in front of the group and image forms of a massive battle unlike anyone had seen it was on a world that was burning "this world is no longer around, the planet could not hold itself together but before the planet was destoryed the dark forces the feared in all dimensions gathered at this one point their armies pushed back but the Hero Master Incanur." they said and zooms in onto a battle field showing a large dragon about Bahumut's size maybe a little taller with dragons and even the first Wizzins with many beings fighting with their own army of good as they pushed through the lines to the castle which was being hammered by magical and non-magical attacks.

In side the castle the dragon moved in with a selection of dragons and wizzins "Master Incanur we'll deal with theses get to the dark lord and stop him before be completes the spell!" a Wizzin spoke out as they then charge in to a group of dark dragons and humaniod animals in armour

Incanur moved in and the dark lord almost completes his spell in pure black armour he looks over at the dragon "So puny Incanur came for another ass kicking" he chuckled "doesn't matter I've almost completed my spell a few more words into this book and pure darkiness will cover this relam!" he laughs "but I'll wait, it time to kill you" He pulls up a staff and Stripetail looked freaked out on he heard about it a dark staff that rivals his old one.
