"No, I wouldn't send you away," he'd say, shaking his head. "Even if I didn't want to bond, I'd still want you around," she was his mom's friend, probably the closest friend she'd ever hand. "My mom....she never told me anything about her past.....except for you, she said you'd always been by her side."

In a way she'd known his mother better than he'd known her. "I want to know about this bond thing," he was guessing it was magical in nature. "Will we be magically connected."

He'd sit on the boulder he'd been leaning against. "And....and later you can tell me about you and my mother....but first...the bond."

"Perhaps she had intended to tell you more when the time was right... but I suppose that duty is now left to me." stated Glade, understanding Alora's reluctance to speak to Eein about their past given their failures to protect their very world. After listening to Eein inquiring about the "bonding", Glade would softly smile and answer him.

"Indeed the bonding process is a magical one. Upon being bound the two of us will share a telepathic link that will allow us to communicate with one another from anywhere. We will also tap into each other's emotions as well as their current physical conditions."

After the explanation, she would give Eein a nod and takes a step forward.

"I can do more than just tell. I contain within me the memories and experiences of all whom have wielded me including your mother. Once we are bonded they can become your's as well but take care not to delve too deeply too soon. As much knowledge and experience there is to be gained they also come with their burdens of associated loss, pain, and trauma so I ask that you tread carefully on their memories. Now for the formation of the bond it is a simple affair. You only need to grab my handle and should I judge you worthy the bond is then sealed."

In that moment Glade's body begins to transform, their body glows like morning daylight as glowing roots resemble her body int a greatsword of Damascus bronze and shaped oak. The tip of the heavy blade sinks into soil til its firmly held in place.

"You only need to reach out for my powers and knowledge to become yours." said Glade's disembodied voice that can be heard coming from the sword.

He'd listen as she explained the nature of the bond, and then he'd watch her shift. He'd seen swords before, seen enchanted ones, but he'd never seen one quite like this. The dragon would take a step forward, his blue looking over the enchanted weapon, "amazing."

"My mom's experience and memories," he'd say quietly, thinking over the bond and everything that came with it. Reaching out he'd run the tips of his fingers over the hilt. The memories, the experience, his mother's legacy, all the answers and a partnership with Glade.

The young dragon would take a breath, and he'd grab the hilt. He felt the bond form, the tingle of magic connecting them, he could hear her thoughts, sense her emotions. Then the memories kicked in, he saw flashes from his mom's perspective, training with Glade, then to their first battle. He saw blades clashing he hurt screaming, saw blood.

He'd hold his head, his breathing getting heavier, it was a lot and it wasn't all pleasant. Finally the flashes of memories faded and he was in the present, he'd take a big breath. Looking down at the sword he'd pull it from the dirt, holding it up to examine. "That was....something...," he'd adjusting his foot, his legs feeling a tiny bit weak.

"Indeed." called out Glade's voice now inside Eein's head. Glade's commanding voice then softens to as they express concern over her charge as a mother would their child.

"The bond has been made, I will be your sword Eein. Until death or dismissal... I will be by your side to protect you against all evils. Now... how are you faring Eein? Upon your touch I sense the overwhelming mixtures of emotions from glimpsing memories of a lifetime flashing before you. I know it is much to take in and I expected the results to be... intense. But like your mother before you wield the strength to hold me."

As Eein examines her in her sword form, he would feel the the livewood hand change to perfectly fit to the contours of his palm while the blade itself shimmers in metallic luster by gentle rays of sunlight that piece through the forest canopy.

He'd actually jump a bit when the voice popped into his head. "That's....going to need getting used to," he did have animal based telepathy, but having someone always connected to his mind was different. "So you'll always be able to hear my thoughts and feel my emotions and vice versa?"

"I'm fine," he'd say, though it was hard to say right then, "there was....it was just a lor." He'd look at the hilt, feeling as it changed to perfectly fit his had. "Guessing you don't recommend taking it all in at once.....," it was tempting, all that knowledge, all that skill.

Taking a breath he'd swing the sword a few times, already he could feel a difference in his posture in the way he held the blade. "It feels good....maybe you were worrying to much." He was a confident young dragon, but a part of him knew that he should listen to the elder being.

"I understand Eein. I only ask that you pace yourself and understand your limits first before trying beyond them." replied the voice in Eein's head.

Eein's confidence lead to a hearty chuckle from Glade. Reminded her of Alora. He was right that she worried but it was natural for a motherly as themselves to worry for those whom are under her protection.

"I have been told that many times but know that I only worry out of care. Untested confidence is oft the downfall of humble man and noble dragon alike." warned Glade, aiming not chide him for his confidence but to be wary of it.

He'd hum in thought, taking a few more swings of the blade. ""Your sword form, its different than any sword I've ever seen," he'd bring the blade close, examining the material, running his fingers over the flat of the blade. "It's.....is it not metal at all?"

The dragon would lean the flat of the blade against his shoulder. "Well....looks like were stuck with each other," he'd say with a chuckle.

Eein would lean the sword against a tree, letting her shift back to humanoid if she wished. "Well you'll need to meet my family.....the ice dragon side that is, and then there's the giant tree."

"Very observant of you Eein. I may not look it but I was once a tree... a great oak with branches reaching to the sky. But when the evil from the starts came, I was carved to my very heartwood so I can but turned into weapon from beyond the stars. No ordinary wood am I for I am lighter and yet stronger than any common steel." explained Glade.

"Your family you say? From your father's side?" inquired the sword whom seemed content to remain as they are leaning against the tree "Yes that would be a wise idea. I wouldn't want my presence around you being them undue concern. Shall we depart at once? Or would you require some time with them before I meet them in person?"

"I'll tell them first," he believed preparing them might be a good idea. "Hmm....I'll take you to the sparring club I'm a part of two, see if any of the sword users will want to spar with me now," he'd say with a chuckle.

Then a thought occured to me. "Wait....where do you live?" he'd ask. "Do you have a place in town?" He assumed that the government had apartments set aside for newcomers.

"And do you have a phone?" he'd ask. "I know we have a mental link but having your number would be handy.

"Here. Among the trees with the fellow forest dwellers." answered Glade whom reverts to their humanoid form, extending their arms as they gesture around themselves. Upon being questioned about a phone they just gave Eein a slow, lizard-like blink.

"As for the phone, no I do not. I never had such a use for them before and to be honest I find these... technologies rather nauseous. Which is why linger in the forest for staying in the city makes feel unwell should I stay too long. Even if Manta Carlos is cleaner and more environmentally conscious than most."
