The Demon Arion
Do not be fooled by my calm demeanor
Bowen nodded and motioned for Kamen to follow him, leading him down towards the kitchen. The mansion was relatavely quiet after what had happened.
Once in the kitchen, Bowen started up the stove and "Would you lie some tea?" he asked, and chuckled "I wouldnt be surprised, if you were tired after so much tea" he said, but was making tea anyways.
"I am sure that you know about the sad past of Arion. Of how he watched his mother be killed in front of him. His family had been running and in hiding for so long, he never quite knew a home. He doesnt know this, but I actually knew both of his parents, I knew why they were running, and I even saw when he was born. Arion and I share a past long before his parents unfortunate end." he said looking over at Kamen, and went to the pantry to prepare a light snack.
"It was because of that life style, that Arion always...well...kinda force, the Princess to get out more. Yes she was unable to move her legs, and the nobles looked down at from their snobby holier than thou asses." he said, angry at the memory of them "but the Princess had a loving family and a beautiful. Arion did not want to see her life go to waste because she was busy feeling sorry for herself. By taking her out of her four walls, and showing her that life went on, Arion and her had a mutual love, he did not desire her, did not think of courting her, and she did not see Arion in that manor.....at least not that we know of" Bowen said.
Bowen then smiled and couldnt help but let out a small chuckle as he looked up at Kamen "And I find it kind of ironic that he has fallen for you" Bowen said remembering the circumstances Arion had been born in.
"Are you interested in hearing a little more of his past?" Bowen asked once more.

The Demon Arion
Do not be fooled by my calm demeanor
"I suppose I should go further back, in order for you to better understand his situation" Bowen said speaking of Arion, and placed a plate of freshly made snacks between them.
"It would make sense that Arion be the master of a mansion. You see he is a Noble by birth, not a human noble, but an elemental noble. His mother was a high born female, valuable even more so than the previous Master of this mansion. But Arions father was no more than a commoner. Their love was a forbidden one. His mothers parents thought that the commoner had kidnapped her, when what truly had happened, was that they had consumated and she had ended up pregnant. IT would have been likely that his father would have been set to death, and so would have he as soon as he was born." Bowen said as he served the tea, handing a cup to Kamen and placed one on the table for him.
"Knowing this, his mother decided to run away, and his father was the one that would protect her. And that is were my family and I come in." Bowen said, leaning on the table.
"My family was one of merchants, who often traveled with a band of gypsies during spring and summer, sometimes during autumn too. I was the youngest of five, about twelve, when we first met Arions parents. It was during autumn that we met, we were actually traveling back to our home, and we came across them, we were still in the company of the gypsies, the elder was very kind, even though she didnt hide the fact that she used smoke and mirrors" he said with a chuckle.
"Even though she was a true psychic. She was happy to lend a hand to Arions parents, and wasnt scared of lying to the knights that came looking for them. And with so many gypsies around....why confront her for lying?" he said blowing on his cup.
"We hid them, and once we arrived to the town where my family and I lived, we offered them shelter, and they took it" he added in.
"Autumn came to an end, and they were well hidden with us, we believe his mothers people, got tired of searching for her. They began getting comfortable, and winter was quite a surprise, lucky us, my older brothers and father were able to get everything ready for us. But we were hit with a major ice storm, and Arion had been born premature. We were all sure he would die. Arion was so small and weak" Bowen said with a sigh "he seemed to get weaker by the day, he rarely moved, or made any sound. My mother had sent me and three of my brothers to go search for help, the first people we thought of, were the gypsies. And the elder was the one who gave us all the herbs we needed to help Arions mother regain her strength, and she told us to go to the top of the mountain, the ancient that lived there would be able to help us" he said and sipped on his tea. "My brothers sent me back home to deliver the herbs, while they went in search of this ancient. It took them four days to come home with the man. By then, Arion had grown cold, and he had the slowest heartbeat, his parents were already coming to terms that he would not survive" he said actually saddened at the memory, " no matter what we did to keep him warm, nothing seemed to work, until the old man came along." he said looking up again "when he helped we never thought that he was a dragon himself" he said smiling at Kamen "the mountain he lived on, was actually a dormant volcano, one that he was keeping that way" he said and crossed his arms on the table "he blew a flame into our fireplace, the flames had been blue and seemed to heat up the room in a second, he grabbed a weak Arion and placed him in the center of the fire, his parents began crying, we all thought he was cremating the child, but." he said and smiled " we heard Arion actually make some noise, at first we thought he was crying, and his mother reached for him, but the ancient stopped her, and we were all to frightened to help out. Until he told us to pay attention, Arion wasnt crying, he seemed to be laughing, his small body started to move more, his blabbering sounded happy and the flames seemed to cool down a little, slowly turning red" he said.

The Demon Arion
Do not be fooled by my calm demeanor
Bowen sipped his tea and looked down at his hands " My family and I were shocked to say the least. But I think his parents were even more shocked. Turned out that his father, being a commoner and all, had no elemental powers, he just had their life span. But the mother was an elemental, and she stated that they got their abilities once they reached maturity, the earliest any elemental had received their abilities had been at fifteen or sixteen. The dragon told us, that the stress had caused the premature birth, but that the cold weather had forced Arions abilities to rise up, the fact that he was getting little to no heat, was what was weakening him close to death." Bowen said "But he told us, that by literally putting him in the flames. Arion would be able to gain some strength. And for a while, it was what we did, Arion, though premature, was acting like an older baby, a strong one too. Whenever we would return from hunting, we would hear his blabering and it seemed to make us feel better. Things were looking up, but we got word from the gypsies that the knights who had been searching for Arions parents, were starting to pop up again." he said sighing at the end. "Arions parents did not want to endanger us, and decided to leave, there was nothing we could do to make them stay" Bowen said a little sad.
"It was twelve years later that I saw them once more, and it ad only been Arion and his mother then" he said indicating that Arions father had died.
"It seemed to me like Arion still did not have control over his element though" he said and looked up "from what I had seen from his parents and their situation, I could only asume that they had merely thought him how to keep it hidden. Because when I had seen them, it was during the murder of his mother, I had been to late, I did not reach them in time" he said saddened at the memory.
"I saw Arions anger rise, and I could feel the heat coming off of him, he killed the three men that killed his mother, and nearly burned down the two buildings that sorrounded them, before he could do more harm I rushed in and took them both. At first Arion thought I was another killer, and nearly burned off my arm, but his mother who had been fighting to stay alive recognized me. It was the only thing that had saved me. But she died in his arms, and for then next twenty years, Arion never spoke up. But he knew how valuable life was. It was why he always.....pushed for the princess to have fun and enjoy life" Bowen said "if his mother had lived, he would not have wanted to see her like the Masters daughter, suffering, no instead, he wanted her to have fun, to enjoy life, you never know when your final day is, after all" Bowen explained, hoping that this would help Kamen understand Arions and the princess relationship more.
