Master Of None

1375 1375. Where They Went

"I may be able to shed light on that. The volcano that erupted caused me to move my village. It was troublesome but the flow of lava changed and so did the potency of mana." Ignus was certain that he knew where a grand fire spirit would go. He did not interact with them but he did know of them. And since Walker had shown that there were items that could be made specifically for elemental spirits, it made Ignus think about starting to learn more about them.

"The volcano is still active. It has fire elemental mana directed toward it but it is not safe for my dragonkin warriors to grow. I have come near there to train myself. There always seems to be a few elves there but I would ignore them."

"You're saying that the banished elves moved to the volcano so that they could be near the grand fire spirit?" Walker received a nod. He was surprised that Ignus was so good at knowing his territory. "You keep a close eye on your territory. I can learn from that." Walker gave credit where credit was due. He would not forget this as a lesson.

"That's where I have to go next then. I can fix this. They were kicked from their city because their leaders lost their minds. I can't let them think they are alone." The hope that Alma felt for the flame elves was pushing her. But Walker stopped her from standing.

"You will rest here. Gil is still unconscious, your four guards are in no shape to do anything, and you still lack mana." The parental tone was much stronger when Walker spoke at that moment. He was not going to allow anyone to further get hurt. Especially with Gil still unable to protect himself.

"You speak of matters like this as if they are troublesome. I can send one of my children to deal with it. They have been lazing about. Purifying their elemental mana has been the last thing on their list to do. I need a task to make them understand that they still need to grow. This should be demeaning enough. A simple messenger to bring back a flame elf from the volcano." Ignus grinned. He was going to make Walker more indebted to him as well.

"I mean no insult by this. But please allow me to go too. I need to be the one to unite my people. If I rely on you and only you then the elves won't be able to come together under our own power." Alma surprised Ignus with this. He had expected her to just give in. He was the most powerful one here. She shouldn't even think about going against him.

"If that is what you desire then you have one hour to prepare. You will go with my son. He will take you there and you will get three hours to make them follow you. Nothing more and nothing less." Ignus placed these restrictions for simple reasons. The volcano was a dangerous force of nature. Even he would find danger there. He had to protect his son to a degree.

Second, there was the fact that Alma had gone against him. He wanted to see her use that courage to get what she desired. Any being that was willing to speak back to a great dragon such as him should be able to make that happen.

And third, Walker was watching Alma carefully, he was not wrong about her current situation. Her body had been overtaxed using mana so quickly. She needed to recover and she just hadn't accepted it yet. Walker was the one who spoke the most logic but since Alma refused to follow it then Ignus would make it more challenging.

"Where are we going?" The rough voice of Gil interrupted their conversation. Alma nearly fell over when she jumped up and rushed to his side. The hug she gave him could have broken bones if Alma was any stronger. "You're safe…" the two words were filled with more warmth than the lava flowing underneath the stones.

"You know you should let him breathe. And you are doing this in front of a dragon and your elite enforcers." Walker smirked a little seeing that Alma became very red faced very quickly. She didn't even have the words to respond. "Glad you're awake. I thought I was going to lose a brother there. But it's your fault for using all of your mana like that Mr. Avatar of the grand wind spirit Zephyr." The teasing tone had some seriousness worked in to it.

"I can't say it isn't my fault. I didn't stay close enough to Alma and that fire was about to touch her. She would have been…" The air stirred slightly as Gil clenched his fists. But he was quick to calm himself. "I can't answer all the questions right now. I know a few things though."

Walker knew what was coming but waited for Gil to say it, "My new title is called avatar of the wind. It comes with the spiritual avatar skill. But it also is a one and done skill. I use all my mana to take that form and fire a powerful arrow. I couldn't control it at all, it was just my anger using it." Gil was understandably confused. He needed to speak to Zephyr.

"I can't speak to Ze[hyr either. She's asleep. The spirit mark moved to my chest. Right over my heart. I can feel it. Every heartbeat has more to it now. It has wind mana too. It's…different." Gil was lost but his hand held Alma's tighter.

As Gil calmed himself more and more, Walker summed up the situation that they had figured out. Gil went through the same emotions as them before saying one thing, "I will go and drag them back. They have a home in Genesis where they can be anything they want." His attitude matched Alma's perfectly. Both were way too stubborn.
