There"s not many things I"ve wanted in life. But flying is certainly one of them. I"ve been trying for the past 3 weeks to get my wings strong enough to glide let alone fly. My wings have grown to around 5 feet across. Almost twice the length of my body. The way I"ve been training them has been fairly ridiculous. I"ve been doing push ups with them! I needed to strengthen the muscles that flap my wings. As such I figured that doing pushups would be just the thing. After 3 weeks I feel my muscles are strong enough to hold my weight for a while. I started going up the towers platforms that I always train on. After reaching the middle I laid there a bit for some rest. Some of you might be thinking that the wind magic will just force me to the ground right? Wrong! It actually helps a little when attempting to glide. Turns out that the s.p.a.cing between the platforms is different after halfway. It"s meant to help strengthen anything with wings. I spread my wings and and get ready to jump. ( test number 49 readying for turbulence and attempting to cross to the great unknown) What? I get to feel like a kid a little. I jumped. The wind catches my wings from below and lightly pushes me up a little to the next platform. As I go the wind feels nice on my wings. Stretching them a little. I finally reached that platform I"ve been trying to reach for months. ( Yes!!!!! Finally!!!!) I screamed in my mind./Host has reached flight lvl 1. Capacity for flight is gliding with the winds. Or down to the ground depending on wind current./
(Hahahahaha! Once I have this thing leveled up I will rule the skies! Hahahahahahaha!) I saw Sam walk into the room looking for me. I looked down and got an idea. I jumped from the ledge and dove toward her. At the very last moment I opened my wings to slim myself but.... My wings folded behind me after a couple seconds and I slammed into her at half my falling speed sending us both tumbling.
As I laid there seeing stars Sam got up and brushed herself off. " Ignis!" Immediately the stars cleared and I sat taught as a rope. She crouched and patted my head. " Good Job. Just work on your landing speed." I was stunned. ( What?!?! No scolding or excessive punishment training! What"s gotten into her today?!) I didn"t want to find out. I quickly turned back to the training room. But I suddenly heard a thump. I turned ( Sam!!!!)
I ran over to her still form on the sandy ground. I shrieked at her attempting to wake her. When that didn"t work I pecked at her. attempt after attempt failed. After 10 different attempts I could only run for help. I ran and glided from banisters shrieking till I found someone. (Gerald! Thank the Reaper!) I started shrieking and circling him. He picked me up confused. "What wrong Ignis?" I grabbed his bow tie and ripped it from his neck. He dropped me in shock. " Ignis! Bring back my tie this instant. He started chasing me. I was slow enough for him to follow. He followed me all the way to the training area. He saw his sister laying on the ground and immediately ran for help.
Within a couple minutes a group of maids and servants were carrying her to her room with me close behind. Doctors showed up and I was forced from the room. After some time they came out and sighed. Sams father looked at him. "What is the diagnosis? Tell me doctor! How is my daughter?" The old man looked at him and solemnly explained her situation. " She is suffering from shadow fever. She signed a contract with a very powerful familiar and is suffering feedback on a scale I have never seen. If the feedback was reduced... perhaps she would start feeling better." Lord Carnac looked at the doctor. " And how do you propose I do that? I can"t kill it without hurting her and I can"t undo the contract. So what are you proposing?"
The doctor leveled his gaze at me. " I reccomend letting the beast out into the woods a few miles away from here. With that much distance between them the feedback should be lessened enough for her to get accustomed to it. Meanwhile it would be best that once she wakes.... That she be put through rigorous training."
Lord Carnac looked at me and after a little thought knelt and apologized to me. The next second it was pitch black. The next thing I knew. I woke up in a grove of trees. The trees were big leafy things. Their branches spread wide almost obscuring the sun. My head hurts I thought as I felt a pang of pain through my head. / Host has acquired Darkness Magic Resistance lvl 1. System has combined it with Multi-Elemental Resistance lvl1. lvl up! MER has become lvl 2./ I heard the system chime.

I turned a little to notice a black swirling circle on a tree close by. As I went closer to it, it disappeared. ( Odd) I thought (Now where am I?) I continued to look around but couldn"t see anything but trees. ( Looks like I"ll have to climb. I walked over and clawed myself up the biggest tree I saw. When I got to the top I saw a see of leaves and and open prairie far away. ( I"m in a forest... I guess that Lord Carnac sent me away rather than hurt his only daughter. Figures that the lizard bites the bullet in this situation.) I opened my wings and slowly glided down to the forest floor.
(Guess my adventure is starting earlier than I thought) I walked along the ground. Till I found tree with a hollow at its base. ( I need to find food, water, and shelter. This"ll do for shelter. Now I just need food and water.) I went into the hollow and found a very large stone rat sleeping inside. I lit it ablaze and it died before it could so much as scream. ( There"s food solved.) I walked around inside. The Hallow was large and s.p.a.cious. There was a pool of water that seemed to drip in from outside through the roots of the tree.
( Looks like I found all three items on my shopping list) I thought gleefully. I went and started munching on the rat It was nicely barbecued. It was juicy and slightly sweet which I didn"t expect.

( d.a.m.n. Things just got interesting) I thought as I ate. I didn"t gain any more skills. But I found some rocks and barricaded the hole with a huge pile of them to keep predators out. ( I don"t want unwelcomed guests). I found a nice spot to sleep and finally set myself down for some shut eye.
