"You would rather it be boring than have it be dangerous." He said. Lifting up his hair on the right side of his head, he showed the scarred flesh and the fleshy hole where his ear was once. "Father has told you, and all who will listen, the story, many times over. Bragging, for sure, but when he told you it, he was trying to warn you, Catiel." He explained, patting his serpent on the head, pointing towards a rather large tree. The serpent slithered towards it, moving up it's bark. Ateznus held on to the grips, untill they snake reached a bran, crawling out onto it. The older elf thanked it, getting off and standing on the branch. "Arm your self, Catiel. Try to hit me, as I tell you the story again. You need your memory refreshed, it seems." He watched his snake head back to the desert floor, heading off to circle around the area. It was large, but it was quick, and would get to the elven siblings faster than any enemies could.
