Ignus was thinking of too many things to remain focused on the potion for the moment. He was caught in the fact that the potion would be water and fire dual affinity potion. He knew that it was possible to make a dual elemental affinity potion. Remey bragged and made her theories out loud while she worked.

However, he was more caught in the memory of how he and Current had once fought at every turn. The two were literally opposites, water and fire never seemed to get along. Luckily, they had been forced to play nicely after they had exchanged four separate territories on the edge of their main territories.

The other royal dragons had not bothered them in their battling. It was normal for them to let the others do as they wished. But when Ignus had found part of his territory at the time coming close to the lake that Current called home, the two had become angry.

The territory that Ignus owned was, at the time, a smaller erupting volcano that fed magma in to the lake. This alone was enough for the two to become annoyed. The steam was constantly drifting toward Ignus's village while the magma heated up Currents' underwater village. they both had a lose lose situation.

Current believed that Ignus was causing the volcano to erupt more while Ignus believed that Current was forcing the steam to travel toward him. Neither would budge at the time due to their pride and had fought over the territory. Their dragonkin suffered the most as they attempted to take the lands between the two villages.

Sometimes one side would win over the other and take more land or villages. But one thing ended up stopping them. The elder had intervened citing the fact that when the royal dragons battled they had the potential to fall completely.

This had happened once in their history when a wind and an earth dragon had fought each other. The wind dragon had given everything to defeat the earth dragon. Luckily, neither were the royal dragon at the time but the damage had been done. The two lost all their dragonkin and the ability to rule a village. The elder wind dragon was even banished from the villages under any dragon for killing a fellow dragon without just reason.

This lesson had been told to the royal dragons many times. It had made them wonder just what could happen that would make any real elder dragon fight. Yet, here Current and Ignus were. If the elder dragon had not stopped them after they had fought for fifty years, then they could have escalated even further.

'The solution was simple, have themselves or the elders mix to share a village. Give birth to a dragon of both water and fire to rule that village one day. It would unite them and show them exactly how they could live in harmony.

Over time, the volcano stopped erupting and the lake had dried out. Both had moved their own territory naturally but the steam dragon had still been born. The village between the two had still be created. Now they were considered close to an elder dragon of water and fire but they were stuck where they stood.

The attempt to learn both flame and water was a harder endeavor than just a single element. The royal dragons were pure in theory elemental pursuit because that was their affinity and they could fully focus on the deepest meanings of the single elemental affinity. But when it came to dual elemental affinity things were harder.

The steam dragon had to remain balanced. If they focused on more than one elemental mana then they would suffer some backlash. There was a nice benefit of bonus higher resistances to water and fire elemental mana which a single elemental dragon would lack. However, that was not the best thing since growing would be double as hard.

For most dragons that believed in elemental purity, they thought that a dual elemental dragon would always be weaker. Always be trapped never to go beyond an elder if they could even make it that far. But now, Ignus was looking at Remey and Walker trying to manipulate the mana in a potion that might be able to do exactly that.

If anyone were to say it out loud, Ignus would blow up in a huff. But he was a doting parent to every dragon that grew beyond adolescence in his village. Many young were cast out if they were deemed weak but that was the reason that every fire dragon was tough and could fight beyond expected limits. The best of the best were given everything.

This mentality had kept the fire dragons powerful over many generations. But in just a short time it had all changed. Walker had come in to their dragon culture and turned it all on its head. Hut ever since Ignus had started to listen, he had changed his mind slowly but surely. Now, he felt that he might have missed some chances.

This chance would not be missed though. "I will control your fire." Ignus took the lead and made his way to the alchemy fires he was unfamiliar with. He never used alchemy fire but he was sure that he could control it. The familiar feeling of flames were all around him. He had bathed in them for more years than anyone would count.

"Really? Are you going to use dragon fire?" Remey's excitement only grew as she saw Ignus give a slight nod. The dragon flames might be able to fuse the two manas perfectly. "Walker start balancing the water mana in the potion. I will start to add more herbs!" The order was prompt and Walker knew that he had no choice but to obey. This was a very big deal.

The flames grew and a small wisp of dragon fire escape Ignus's lips. He felt the fire grow and change from the normal alchemy fire to a strange red and deeper red coloration. It was a mix of his dragon flames which burned lighter but hotter than any other flames that Remey could create. The alchemy flames mixed in were actually cooling spots of the potion which helped the inner balance.

The herbs fell in one after another as Remey ground some up or crushed others. The potion had a strange swirling as the fire and water manas chased one another. When Remey dropped in a piece of snowflake moss, Walker was forced to work harder.

The water elemental mana had spiked in the potion after seeing the snowflake moss. It was a rare moss that Current had been able to bring to the alchemy guild after speaking with Remey about the affinity potions. It had a high water elemental mana concentration that made it freeze things sound it when the colder seasons began.

Now, the water mana was resisting the flames that surrounded the cauldron. Yet, Walker felt Ignus's intentions with every single movement. He didn't hide what his flames would do. He was gradually increasing the heat and forcing the mana to reach a maximum. Walker could only rival this with his manipulation as well.

Both of them were waiting under pressure for Remey to do what she needed. The last handful of herbs fell in to the cauldron and it began to bubble wildly. Gray steam was released as more impurities were released from the potion. The fume would have made anyone cringe but the three were stalwart in their endeavors.

"This is it." Remey slammed a lid on the moment the last bubble popped. She tied it down quickly and waved Ignus and Walker away. She began dumping water on the cauldron to cool it rapidly. "This is it. This is it. This is it…" Remey's nearly silent chanting only grew as he watched the cauldron steam until it was no longer hot at all.

Ignus leaned forward waiting to hear good news. He was tenser than he had been. He wasn't thinking about the fact that Remey was not a dragon of equal standing as him. He didn't care that Walker had changed his mind. He wasn't even thinking about who he was giving the potion to anymore. It just mattered that they had completed it.

"Walker, open it while I get vials. We should have four left." Remey watched Walker open the cauldron with a pop. there had been some pressure in it when she sealed it. But the larger vials easily came to sit right in front of her. The lab had been made for perfect efficiency.

The three were greeted with a small amount of purple potion. It was reflective and seemed to have a pleasant scent compared to the toxic fumes from before. Ignus and Remey both looked to Walker for his all around appraisal. They wanted to hear in depth details while Remey filled the vials with what she could.
