Enderm approached the large beast known as Onyx, having slipped past the ones he could only assume to be his siblings or pack or something of that nature. He had come here with a purpose, to provide the large beast some kind of ease from whatever was burdening him, because something was clearly wrong. He was acting as if he was in pain, and while Enderm didn't trust his chances of getting out unscathed, he at least trusted his chances of at least trying to help, since Onyx knew he was no threat.
For the past few days, Onyx har been residing in his personal chamber. A large sectioned off cave inside the clan caverns that was remarkable. The caverns that belonged to the rock tooth clan were gorgeous, grasses and ferns lines the walk ways as Halitrad glowing crystals provided the light needed to sustain plant growth. These caverns were detailed so greatly! Main living quarters, nurseries, food stores, medical chambers, meeting caverns, all you could imagine this clan needed. And it was big, it had to be. Onyx’s clan was in the thousands in numbers, and these caves were stretched for miles on end. Providing a safe place for young ones to be raised, elders to be safe, and generally safe from the other large predators of Halitrad. The caves were huge, these caverns made even Onyx himself seem small. Rivers and underground springs gave water to the plants and the raptors who lived there, it was like an underground world, underneath a world that was already underground!
However, back at Onyx’s personal chamber he had sectioned off from the rest of the clan, it was a remarkable almost split down the middle. When you walked into this cave, you saw a good sizable forest, various trees, brushes, ferns, and fruit trees that were undiscovered, containing various fruits never before seen by other creatures not native to Halitrad! To the side of the cave, a large underground spring filled and drained with mineral rich waters. Water so pure and energy rich, Onyx almost had to have it to start each day. The spring was almost glowing blue due to the fact some sun crystals lined its bottom, and towards the back of this cave, was almost completely smooth flat stone with the occasional large bolder or two. It held a massive nest, a nest melted into the ground and smoothed from the heat of Onyx’s flames. Within it was filled with various vegetation, soft tree canopies, grasses, ferns, and laying on top of it was Onyx himself. He had unfortunately allowed himself to become blinded during a fight with Two infected draks that managed to slip into this territory undetected. Onyx as usual sent them both to the world beyond through combat, but unfortunately was spit at with deadly toxins before his second eye lids could close and protect his eyes. Neck spines lowered as the beasts usual red eyes were grey, his usia slit pupils still responsive to light but unable to transmit photoreceptic information to his brain, leaving him blind... his head rested upward on the ground level of his cave, while his body laid slightly lower in the below ground nest. Grunting in pain as he was preparing to shed his eyes, and regrow them in a long painful process.
However, heat detecting pits almost unseeable on his snout detected a warm mass approaching, combined with his sensitive hearing and sense of smell unmatched by others in the animal kingdom, he was easily able to detect who was there, and what was there. A hellish growl escaped his maw first, but soon relaxed as the scent revealed that of Katanas friend...
“Oh... hello earth shaper...”
