Krask being completely out of his element and unable to maneuver hardens his form and just waits for the hit to come in. "Go ahead, if this is what it takes." His scales starts taking on a adamantine quality slowly becoming heavier than the winds could hold him.

Reshaya giggles, "Well of course she would be pissed at us if we interfere. Although I do worry for Urin she seems nice. I would rather she didn't have to suffer. While for Krask....eh...getting beat up once in a while for something is a good way to build character." Reshaya lean her head in closer and kiss Kuroi lightly. "Hrmm....want to mess around in the water a little them Kuroi? There is a little place down there I have kept secret for a while."

The Shinai's giggle, "I could.....but that means giving up the comfy bed for a while."

Krolta would nod and hug the both of them. "To us then and don't worry so much Puros. As for my crown possibly? I am still trying to come to terms with it."

Ryu's kick lands, blue lightning crackling around the impact as she goes through his scales. She then spins vertically at high speed and first hits Krask from above with her tails, then follows it up with a kick. At the same time the skies start to darken and thunder can be heard in the distance.

Kuroi nods.

K: "I don't think Urin will really be harmed, mostly scolded. And getting beat up from time to time can indeed be beneficial for your character."

He kisses her back and grins.

K: "Sounds good to me. If it's underwater it might help if I alter my shape a little."

His fur rapidly gets replaced by smooth black scales with red wind marks, his wolf features changing to those of a serpent. Within moments he has changed from an anthropomorphic wolf to an anthropomorphic sea dragon.

K: "I'm ready."

FilFire frowns as he thinks.

F: "Hmm......Nah, I'm too curious. Show me please."

Isodzugia hugs Krolta around her neck.

I: "To us sounds good to me."

Puros shrugs as he hugs Krolta, his tail tightening its grip on Isodzugia's.

"If you say so, but I'd rather make sure you'll be all right."

Krask doesn't dodge instead he goes for a grapple when Ryu's vertical kick connects to himself. Krask would yank Ryu to his level and keep Ryu locked in his grip while the weight of his current form was causing them to descend. Krask would otherwise just start covering the both of them in adamantine that would either force Ryu to go into spirit form to get loose or resign to being trapped in with Krask.

Reshaya would happily swim down with Kuroi slowly reaching the dark depths of the lake where the sunlight could not penetrate. As they deeper into the abyss Kuroi would notice lights as it got darker. Some of the fish were luminescent it seems soon Kuroi and Reshaya would happen upon what could only be described as a giant lit up dome underwater. Kuroi would be able to see a mass of fish on the inside. Reshaya would swim down towards the floor of the lake and move a few rocks. Around the large dome. Kuroi would notice a hidden tunnel Reshaya seems to have made in the past thankfully it was large enough to facilitate humanoids. Once on the other side of the tunnel Reshaya and Kuroi would appear inside the dome the floor was somewhat like a water bed as well as somewhat slippery. Reshaya would move to the pile of fish and shift it to the left to reveal yet another tunnel which she would happily jump into. Inside Kuroi would be able to a brilliant green glowing water. Should Kuroi jump in as well he would find that it led to a subterranean lake in of itself. Here however, every life form was in somewhat luminescent. From the plankton to the larger fishes yet strangely everything had an apple or orange like taste or scent to them.

The Shinai's giggled before splitting up and resting FilFre on the ground while they merged back together. Once she was back to being one person FilFire would see Shinai immolate herself with nature fire. After a short and intense burn, Shinai's form would change so that she was facilitating more draconic features. The first thing FilFire would notice was her new set of emerald scales that glistened in the sunlight followed by her tail and wings. Her hair was formed from thin vines, that had been tied into a long single braid that reached her lower back. "Not be largest change, but.....I get a nudging feeling you like it when your mates have more draconic features hrmm?"

Krolta would nod and sit down on the grass so that Puros could take another look if he wanted. "I can activate the crown when you are ready Puros."

When Krask grabs her Ryu struggles to get free, then raises an eyebrow when Krask locks her in an adamantine shell together with himself. Thanks to how heavy they're getting they're now starting to fall fast, and now that Krask has locked them in together Ryu unleashes a barrage of strikes enhanced with flames, and each time she comes into contact with Krask there's an explosion on the place of impact.

Kuroi follows Reshaya, curiously looking around at everything. Seeing how in their destination everything is giving off light he chuckles.

K: "Quite the curious place. Did you create it yourself or did you just find it some day?"

He keeps the sea dragon form, idly swimming around in the water and studying all the luminescent lifeforms in it.

FilFire watches Shinai change into one form again, then grins widely at the end result. His tail wagging her quickly tackles her so she ends up lying on the ground with him straddling her. He licks her nose chuckling.

F: "Completely correct, although I also like canine features a lot. And feline. Draconic is still one of the best though."

He rubs his nose against hers.

F: "So, any change besides that you now look even better than before?"

Isodzugia watches Krolta, but doesn't say anything as she idly tightens her tails grip on Puros's in return.

Puros nods and waits for Krolta to announce she is ready before nodding again.

"Right then. I would like to get another look at it. It might even have changed a bit after your training, which would be interesting. However if you feel something strange while it is active you should deactivate it immediately."

Krask would seal the shell so that there was no longer any oxygen inside so that the explosions would be limited to force only. Krask would remain inside with Ryu and grapple her so that she couldn't hit him as much. "Given that we are now, almost out of oxygen I suggest you pull back."

Reshaya would giggle happily. "Thats the best part I didn't make it the world did it on its own. That dome is actually some kind of jelly fish feeding on the subterranean fish and plankton." Reshaya would nab a large fish and instantly killed it so that Kuroi could get a bite of the fish. Kuroi would notice that the fish tasted like a different fruit depending on its cut. This particular fish being large would literally be a swimming fruit salad with a tuna after taste.

Shinai giggled and replied to FilFire. "Well....this form might be something you particularly enjoy then.....as I am incredibly fertile in this form......perhaps even thrice my normal form....."

Krolta nods, "I will Puros." When Krolta activates her crown her energy levels would suddenly spike forcing Krolta to tone down the energy. "Oh dear.....looks like the training might have done more than I realized....." Puros would be able to see that every aspect of Krolta was now even more empowered than before. Looks like improving her non-released state increases the base level for her released state. However something a little worrying for Puros would be that it seems that increasing her base power is also giving her crown more reason to become greedier for knowledge and power. As if it had been given a taste of potential.

Ryu disappears, changing into a mass of sharp scales. The scales then rapidly spin around Krask in their personal whirlwind, thanks to their high speed and hardness quickly giving Krask numerous small cuts that slowly cut deeper and deeper.

Kuroi nods while he looks at the fish.

K: "That's indeed interesting."

He takes a bite out of the fish Reshaya presents him. He raises an eyebrow at all the different tastes.

K: "Why does it taste so much like fruit though?"

FilFire grins.

F: "Nice. Do you mind if I take advantage of the new possibilities this form offers then?"

Isodzugia looks at the released state.

I: "Heh, seems like your training also affects your released state. Not very surprising, but still interesting."

Puros inspects the released state, quickly assessing the difference in power between the released state as of right now and what it was like in the past.

"Well, seeing how the released state mostly means that all the safety locks that you normally have are disabled, increasing your abilities will certainly affect your released state, most of the time even more than it affects your controlled state."

He frowns as he notices that the flame crown now has an increased thirst for knowledge.

"Hmm..... This is troubling. Now that your powers have been increased the basic goal the crown has of increasing your knowledge and power has become stronger. Do you feel any different from the previous time you were in your released state? Besides the increase in power I mean."

Krask begins to force the shell to collapse in on itself so that the mass of scales Ryu had turned into would be stuck to him literally. The pressure of the collapsing shell was enough to squeeze coal into diamonds. "I may be taking more damage than you, but I don't plan to make this any easier for you."

Reshaya would point to the roots that was somewhat poking into the subterranean lake. "It appears that the trees also pump their sap into these lakes acting as a storage for their energy supply."

Shinai would kiss FilFire and giggle. "I would, but again I have something of a trial coming up don't I? It would not be a good thing to go into a fight possibly pregnant. I would rather I don't have an miscarriages."

Krolta thinks for a moment then shakes her head. "Not really no.......although I suppose I might just act differently around a library or even around the Heart of Flames. Although I do feel the need to hoard something as well......" Another rather unsettling thing seems to be that the crown in on itself might be a separate entity, but seeing as how it isn't directly controlling Krolta there is no proof. Maybe it just needs a little more persuasion to show its true colors?
