"So mostly veggies. Guess I don't need to worry about getting fat. Maybe being to skinny, though." She said putting a claw on her belly.

"What's wrong with you?" Venti asked Vex, noticing his look. "You're not coming down with something else are you?" Parfait arrived right then and placed three small tarts, one for each, in front of them. The filling was pure white, almost glowing, and there was a small cloud over the tart that looked like it was snowing on it. "Enjoy!" The dragons told them. Venti took a deep breath and she almost started to drool at the aroma. "Now this is a treat. Eelmilk tarts."

Vex tasted it... "It tastes.... amazing actually." Vex started to calm down a bit.

ooc: You didn't say what was up with Vex. We can't guess unless you tell us. And if you're going to taste it you'll need to be more descriptive than that. Tell me more about what Vex experience tasting it.

OOC: Not sure if there's anything special about it but I'm guessing the cloud thing follows the pastries and is also eaten. If I miss something be sure to add it.
BIC: Yuki thought the pastry looked literally too good to eat. However, it seemed to be normal and she was hungry. She leaned in and took the largest whiff she could of the fresh baked dessert. It smelled heavenly and she picked it up, intrigued by the cloud, "How do you get the cloud on top?" She pointed to it as though she could be taking about something else.

ooc: I didn't describe at all how it should taste, the only unusual thing about it is the pure white filling and Venti saying it's from Eel milk, which it is. Raider already posted now that it's tasty, so I can't really say anything else towards the taste. But his post feels half done. So I'm giving him free reign to post the rest of what he experiences with the taste and also to finish the weird thing he posted about Vex before.

Ooc: it works! I just had to do a stuffload of stuff!
"Could I have another?" Vex asked sheebishly.

"Sure!" Parfait said and went back to get another. "Most black dragons that are chefs does it." Venti answered Yuki about the cloud. "It's why they're so much fun to visit."

"Oohh, cool." Yuki said with a fair amount of enthusiasm. Having run out of questions, she finally took a bite of the fluffy, creamy pastry. Clearly a chef who knows her stuff. Part of Yuki felt like it was the best pastry she'd ever had and the other part felt like there was something about it that was strange that she couldn't put her finger on. Or her claw on, really.

Parfait came out and put another pastry in font of Vex. "Here you go." She said happily. Venti quickly ate hers and waited for Vex to finish.

Vex finished and sighed. "Its not meat but it will do... thank you Venti." Yuki nodded, "Thank you. It was really really good."

"It's my pleasure." Venti told them. "Then let's get going before it gets too late. Thank you for the treats Parfait." Venti called out to her. "We're going, but I'll see you again soon." "Alright Venti." Parfait called back. "Take care of yourself."

"Thanks you." Yuki nodded to Parfait and followed Venti. She felt much better with something in her belly.

Vex followed after. "So uh... humans are mythical right? There aren't any colonies right? If there were, hypothetically speaking, a human settlement where would it be?" Yuki's ears perked as she was interested in what Vex had brought up, curious what Venti would say.

"Humans aren't mythical, they're extinct." Venti said as she led them further towards the field with the sheeb. "Along with dwarfs and elves. And they can't ever exist here again. I mean it was before I was born, but it's well documented and they left their mark on the world to remind us of them."

"Mark... what do you mean?" Vex asked. He looked with wonder at Venti. It just hit him, despite all that he had seen that he was in a fantasy world... he wanted to learn all he could about the mythology here.

"You know, their mark on the world." Venti said pointing to the mountains. "Outside the Ridge?"

"Nope, not a clue." Yuki spoke up, "Like I said, we were human before waking up in that cave. We don't know any of this places history."

Venti turned to look at the two. "You really don't know, do you? You must really have it bad. Alright, look, we don't usually talk about this normally, so don't just mention it unless you want to kill the mood. It's kind of a heavy subject." Venti took a deep breath. "Anyway. Everything you see around you, everything in the Ridge, everything that stretches for more than a thousand miles up and down these mountains. That's all there is in this world that's still alive. Everything outside this Ridge is dead. We call it the Darkening and it happened about a thousand years ago, although it started long before that. The elves never liked the dragons, in fact they hated us for many reasons. One of those reasons being that they thought 'beasts' shouldn't be able to live longer than they did. But they kind of just ignored us since we used to constantly be at war with ourselves. So much so that it looked like the dragons would wipe themselves out. But dragons finally found peace and was able the live together in harmony. Our race flourished once more, we became wiser and more creative and we created our own songs and stories equal to those of elves and dwarfs. Of course the elves didn't like that. So around a thousand years ago they managed to develop a spell that would make them live forever, make them immortal. But they needed the help of the dwarfs and the humans to pull it off. So they promised them the same immortality, just as long as it meant that they could outlive the dragons. We didn't really get along with the dwarfs, but we didn't have any qualms with them either. As for the humans? History tells us that we got along with them really well. They weren't around back when the dragons made war and kind of slipped into history some time before the Darkening. But they were eager to learn and share, they made friends with us and taught us skills that dwarfs and elves had always kept to themselves, like how to build houses and castles. Despite being the race that had the shortest lifespan they tried to get along with everyone. But for the price of immortality they turned against us and betrayed us. But something went wrong. The magic of elves are a lot more complicated than our natural magic, so we can't be sure, but we think it had to do with the darkness in their hearts. Instead of getting eternal life they were granted fleeting death. They changed. Everything that made them alive, love, creativity, beauty was all stripped away from them. Dwarfs became ghouls and loosing their drive to build they retreated into their underground homes to live in darkness. Ultimately they became slaves of what used to be the humans, the skeletons. Being the only race able to adapt to their new way of un-life they soon became the dominant race outside of the Ridge. The elves became wraiths. After loosing their beauty they retreated into their woods and turned to darker deeds. Most wraiths became necromancers and started turning the rest of the living world into beings like themselves, into death. Unfortunately we dragons weren't much of an active race in the world. We kept ourselves busy with dragon things and didn't much think about the rest of the world. Too late we realized that if we didn't do something we'd have no more world left and we'd fall under death as well. So we gathered up what was left of the living and created the Ridge, protected from the outside world. That's why dragons don't eat meat anymore, because we have to protect what is still alive. The ghouls and skeletons are still outside there, living in their undead cities. We killed all the necromancers and what's left of the wraiths lurks in shadows to kill whatever living thing they can find. And that's the short version. That's what happened to the humans. The curse is still there as well, so if you were human you'd become a skeleton and since you're not a skeleton you can't be human. See?"

Yuki was greatly taken aback by the story. A total loss for words. She hummed the thoughts and history in her mind over and over again as she tried to come to terms with what Venti was saying. For now, though, all she could do was stare off into space and think to herself.

"...I... Wh.... I don't even know how to respond. Humans betrayed the dragons?" Vex said. Then he remembered the humans from his world. All the wars... he gulped and lowered his head. They had done worse...

"Yeah, they betrayed us." Venti said and turned around to lead them further. "But that was a long time ago. Before we were born. I've only known the world like it is now, with skeletons at our borders and no humans."

Yuki remained silent as she followed, not wanting to further agitate the situation and mulling over the story she'd just heard.

"I... I guess humans aren't so good after all huh?" Vex said with a sigh.

"I guess technically it would be better if they were still around, then there wouldn't be skeletons." Venti told them. "But that doesn't really matter now. What's more important is that we're here!" She threw out her arms at her announcement. In front of her was a field filled with creatures that looked like sheep, except they were covered in purple dots. And on closer inspection the purple dots were in fact purple berried that were growing on them.

"The sheeb... are shrubs?" Vex asked vexed. "Looks like it." Yuki said quietly and looked at the fantastic field before them.

"What's the matter? Sheeb are cute." Venti told them. "And I won't have you badmouthing them." "Hello Venti!" A blue dragon with a sleek spiraled tail called out to them. He was heading over to him with about a dozen sheeb following after him. "Who's your friends?" "Hey Bliss! Guys I want you to meet my best friend, Bliss." She told her two friends.

"Hello. Uh.. I like your sheeb. Are those berries?" Vex asked perplexed. Yuki remained otherwise quiet, although she did respond with a small nod in Bliss' direction.

"Of course they are berries." Bliss laughed. "What else would they be?" "Bliss, this is Vex and Yuki." Venti introduced them. "Pleased to meet you." Bliss greeted them. "Yuki? I've never heard a name like that, what does it mean?" "The thing is." Venti said taking a deep breath. "I found these two in the sacred pool. Somehow they've lost their memories and now they think they're, um, humans turned into dragons." "Humans?" Venti nodded. "And Needle asked me to look after them."
