"I have to say, the work that has been done at the river's edge is amazing. There are already hos and resting areas set up for my people." After the eting had concluded, Leon was walking with Walker and Rey. He had been very impressed when he arrived. "If the demi-humans had not already cleared a safe passage through the river I would have had those that ca with do it. I have to say, overall, the journey was peaceful."
"I'm glad you had an easy journey here. I wouldn't want anything to weigh on you too much. So, how are your people recovering?" Walker feared the worst. However, from the way that Leon was acting, he knew that the rfolk must be getting along well.
"If the elves and the dwarves had not stayed for a little while I would still be guiding the mages to grow the corals back. However, those golems moved massive stones to use as the base for corals. Then the elves that stayed behind had so interesting water elental arrows that made the water elental mana more condensed in an area. I doubt that was the purpose of them at first but they were able to help the corals grow faster. The city will look like old tis if not newer soon!"
"If everything is back to normal then that ans I should have my rfolk herbalists here now!?" Rey couldn't hold herself back yet. She had guided so people toward the establishnt of the underwater herb growing fields. Yet, they would not truly begin until there were experienced herbalists to grow them to the highest quality.
"Yes, I sent over fifteen that you either spoke with or ca to to volunteer. They had heard a rumor that an alchemy guild was looking for teachers or new mbers. You seem to have sung a siren song to lull them in to your guild." This was a common joke for the rfolk but it was even funnier to see Leon laughing more than the others.
"Just head out now Rey, I know you want to get things all set. You also have to send so alchemists to the tower so that they can start to investigate." Walker saw the look in Rey's eyes and let her run ahead. He knew that anything she tried to listen to would not get to her since she would be distracted.
"Speaking of towers. Is that what is causing the expanding field of mana around here? I could sense the waters becoming calr the closer we got to the city. I would say that is normal for this ti of year, but it is a much more drastic change." Since Leon was used to turbulent water, he had an experience of knowing when and where it would show up. Feeling the change while swimming here had thrown him off.
"It does a lot more than concentrate mana. It seems to boost the cathedrals' healing aura, help people absorb mana to recover, and even helps extend lifespan according to older texts." This was sothing Walker was proud of. Just having the mage tower was enough to get them so huge benefits. But exploring and understanding it would show them true gold.
"I see, then you should be seeing more elves coming by soon. From what I know, the water elves should be coming here right? They might have left the oceans to us rfolk but they are still highly regarded by my people. They taught us a lot and I would like to sit at the sa table as them." There was a fantastical care for the water elves in Leon's speech.
"I wouldn't say that everyone else feels the sa. It appears that the water elves cut themselves off from the outside world in their lakes. It is hard for anyone to head over there, Even worse they seem to control water sprites and nymphs so that they don't even need to push people away." There would be a lot of hardship to get the water elves on their side.
"Then we will head there together. My people can work with everyone here to grow. They get along great with the demi-humans like us. So there won't be a single problem. I could use a real adventure too." It appeared to Walker that Leon wanted to pay them back for their help in the ocean. Now that he saw a chance he was jumping at it.
"In that case, I will see who can gather together to leave and make a relationship with the water elves. They are past the demi-human kingdom and in the large lakes. As much as everyone wants to say singular lake, it is really three that are connected by small waterways and have a large mass of land in the middle that divides them. That is the main ho of the water elves other than the waters. I can plan things out with a little help. Just sit tight and maybe get so stuff to help us breathe underwater. I would rather be safe than sorry." Leon took this with cheer and left to get ready. He had brought so special items to help people and would even have so of the mages that ca with him cast water breathing skills on whoever could journey with them.
"Well, that was unexpected. I should have seen it coming in though, we have already spoken about the water elves. At least it wasn't the mountains again. I have to go there soon anyway." Walker was glad he didn't need to go back to the mountains and could head toward the water elves for a change of scenery. He was also glad that he didn't have to deal with marshes or swamp lands. The lakes were fairly ta in comparison. "Now, who to bring with us?"
