tier 2, 4 tier 3, and 16 battlemeld. Has that ever been achieved by the
Zen’zat? ”
    The Dragon’s nostrils flared as he remained silent for
a moment. “ Not by V’kit’no’sat Zen’zat.
Which tier 3s do you possess? ”
    “ Jumat, Sav , Kex , and Ubven. All Archons
of my level possess the same .”
    “ How have you
accomplished this sharing? ”
    “ We stumbled
upon it by accident and tailored it to our use. Once one of us attains an
ability, we can sync with another to trigger their ascension .”
    “ The
V’kit’no’sat never discovered the battlemeld, yet you have. I am unsure what to
make of this. ”
    “ We train harder
than them, and we also give orders rather than taking them .”
    “ Both points of
merit, but I need to analyze you further. Will you allow me access to your
mind? ”
    Paul turned to the yellow Dragon. “ If it’s a two way street, I’ll allow him and
you can share his point of view via your own battlemeld, assuming you didn’t
give us something you did not possess .”
    “ If I wished to
take the knowledge from you by force you could not stop me, Archon. There is no
subterfuge here. ”
    “ Never the less,
I will allow him. Your power level is beyond mine .”
    “ So is his, as
you are about to see .”
    The yellow dragon walked forward and Paul held up his
bare hand. The Zak’de’ron pushed its head into his palm making flesh to flesh
contact and bypassing Paul’s Ikrid block.
    Suddenly the Dragon’s mind was inside his own, a huge,
powerful presence far larger than his fellow Humans’ but not as advanced. Paul
was so used to having Jason inside his head that he could adequately size up the
Zak’de’ron and spot the areas where it was the inferior, but in so many base ways
it completely outclassed him that he was truly surprised.
    There was no pushing or pulling involved, no
contention, just an exploration of one another with Paul seeing most of its
memories aside from specific portions that were blocked. He too was shielding
some areas regarding their technology, codes, hidden worlds, and was ready to
break the connection the moment an intervention occurred, but none was to come.
    He could only feel the yellow Dragon’s mind, but he
knew the others were also seeing through its perception. But more than its
mind, Paul could also feel inside its body and recognized several psionic
tissues similar to his own. It had Jumat, he was sure of it, and he suspected
several other things, including ones that either the Archons hadn’t unlocked
yet or special psionics that had not been given to the Zen’zat.
    He was getting a wealth of knowledge just by being
able to look around inside the Dragon’s body and memories, and he knew they
were getting the same in return. The sharing occurred for more time than Paul
could recount, then the Dragon withdrew its mind, shortly followed by breaking
connection with his hand as it stepped back to a flanking position with a
renewed respect existing between them both.
    “ You have done
well, Archon. Though you are still physically weak compared to many Zen’zat, few have achieved as much as you have. It would not save you if
you fought them, but if you continue on your present course you will outstrip
them given time. In fact I can accurately say that your pace and intensity of
training are giving you an enormous advantage over the Zen’zat, but their
longevity is something that you will not quickly claim. ”
    “ I know .”
    “ The dreams are
meant to be a final test to determine if one is intelligent enough to be
granted the highest powers. You cannot share Choratrik, do you know why? ”
    “ I’m guessing
the trigger is structured differently .”
    “ It is. It
requires a mental alignment that cannot exist passively, therefore your twin
link cannot replicate it unless you are so linked during a dream when it
occurs, and such connection is deliberately blocked. You will never be able to
share those abilities .”
    “ Have
