Sleipnir sneezed as they came upwards. The ground squelched sickeningly under his bare feet making him cling to Path's tail for a while to try and avoid standing in it. The thick smog clouding the air made breathing harder and a mormal child would be wheezing right about now. In some ways, it wad familiar though, this sort of smog, he wondered if he had inherited any memories of it from Daddy. In any case, he thought wrinkling his nose up, he wished that they were back down home where Daddy was sleeping. He didnt like the surface. Like instructed, he stuck close to his brother and Father, unwilling to take a step further. 

 Path observed the landscape along with his sons. It was different when you had two young sons barely a week old with you, regardless of their dragonic blood. Path wanted to bring them back down, wash them clean with green gel and tuck them into bed, before crawling to Edge's side and staying there as long as time would allow, but....that woukd be spoiling them and they would be unprepared for the day they had to survive for themselves, they would be weak....so even when he wanted to carry his children to avoid the debris on the ground, he resisted and settled for holding their hands and leading them.

 Skylark's question made him pause in their stride along the confusingly dangerous and dangerously confusing terrain. He let go of Sleipnir's hand for the moment, kneeling down to their eye level to address them both. He was going to tell them anyway. It was only a matter of time. Be it due to Skylark's hypnosis or Psth's own melancholy, he spoke monotonously, "You see...long before the earth was like this, the humans...the ones like Daddy, they planned to leave and the hydras...those are the ones that hurt Daddy understand?...They sought to take over, make it hell for the remaining. We thought we slew them all, but the elders..the ones before us knew it was only time. They hid themselves beneath the earth, now they're sleepibg still, but restless to wske. You see...it is time, when all forms of peace can be forgotten, we go to war."
