By that time, their minor kin had been purified into ice dragons and added to Drakairós' growing army. From five dragons - the God of Weather included - they're now comprised of eight individuals*. And with the incoming hundred-so dragons, more will join them yet... And some being lost in the process. The male arch-dragon roared to his "traitorous" kin as he engaged the ice dragons with immense abhorrence. The ice dragon attempting to purify him staggered back with a vicious shriek as it attempts to fire its ice beam at him. Eventually however it would be driven away and be one of the few to be chased by the enraged fire dragon. The hydra dragon god issued a guttural call to mobilize the rest of the ice dragons to engage the enemy, all complying without hesitation. Two other ice dragons followed Thesan in pursuit as they attempted to strike him down with their cold breath. The storm around them would continue to intensify, with the blizzard casting down near-hurricane force winds that would definitely diminish the flight capabilities of the fire dragons, as well as heavily diminishing their vision. Yet as the winds began to howl fiercely, with the snow whipping back and forth through the currents, this heavy blizzard evolved into a thundersnow phenomenon as lightning pierce through the thick clouds. Most of these strikes would occur around the flock of dragons, attempting to take them out one bolt at a time. Dra and Rós would fire their lighting and ice breaths respectfully from afar as they attempt to take several more out. Any foe the ice dragons would win against will attempt to turn them into their own, while some would perhaps fall victim to the fire dragons themselves. [b]"Should we consider splitting again?"[/b] Rós asked the middle head cautiously, thinking about the whole divide and conquer strategy like they did with the first few ice dragons. [b][color=fff200]"Not with these many opponents."[/color][/b] Dra responded bluntly, [b][color=fff200]"We'll stay as one for now. Once we decapitate the leading heads, can we divide to pick off the retreating forces."[/color][/b] Yet as the Weather God continued to lay waste to the flocking fire dragons, a beam of concentrated fire hit them on their side, causing them to reel in surprise. All three heads ceased firing as they glanced up into the white clouds to see the second arch-dragon heading straight towards them in a beeline fashion. Roaring for a challenge, she falls towards him like a meteor hitting through the atmosphere. Yet it was Dra who would respond with a grin, for he knew what to do. [b][color=fff200]"Challenge accepted."[/color][/b] he growls ominously. And in that moment, all three heads opened their toothy maws - each full with razor sharp teeth - and quickly fired their respected beams at the descending dragon.
