The alchemy fire spirit was burning up the fuel below it with a fury. There was nothing holding it back from doing as it wanted. What was even more amazing to Su was the fact that it had perfect control of the temperature even though it was still growing in size. Rey was stuck throwing more fuel on to the flas while the old master alchemist seed to be nearing the completion of the base he needed for the earth affinity potions.
"We will need that ice soon, help Rey go and set it up so that we can start the next batch sooner!" The old master alchemist was not trying to be rude, he was just focused. The job was better with two people anyways so dishing out the task was more efficient.
"The ice is stored over here. It's how we keep so of the more unique materials and herbs stored for this room." Rey pulled open a door that seed to be the portal to a tundra. There were very dense blue water elental crystals that lined the walls which helped to make the temperature lower. The herbs and other items inside were very unique and familiar to a degree since they had seen so of these in the mountains. The ice was in large barrels in the middle of the room and had clearly been hand cut. Su had no idea where one would order this much ice but had the feeling that the water mages sohow played a part in this.
Another large cauldron was on the opposite side of the main room that the pair surrounded with ice. The mont that they had finished the old master alchemist shouted a warning. From the ceiling, a tal rune carved pipe was lowered by him using so dwarven technology. The base was funneled from the hot cauldron all the way to the freezing cold one. There was a slight sadness around the alchemy fire spirit now that it wasn't allowed to keep heating and refining sothing.
"You really like alchemy that much hm? I think Rey found a great partner. But you are just like her. You should relax a little too. I brought my partner to check up on you." While Rey and the old master alchemist focused on cooling the base for later use in creating the earth affinity potion, Su woke up the sleeping earth spirit.
As the earth spirit revealed itself it surprised the alchemy fire spirit which had basically been in seclusion for weeks from other elental spirits. To say that just the earth spirit had changed would be a radical lie. Just like the earth spirit gaining more detailed features, the alchemy fire spirit had as well. The dark red flas it had were even deeper and denser. There were also slight bits of flas that ca off its back as if it was wearing a cape or cloak made of flas. Su could only wonder if it would have a more solid form in this way like Zephyr did when it grew even more powerful. The constant creation and growth of alchemy fire had led to its own growth very well.
The two spirits broke their character slightly and beca very talkative and energetic. Su didn't even need to interact to tell that they were having a nice ti. "Hey Rey, are you going to bring the alchemy fire spirit with you on our next journey?" This was a possibility that Su was sure that Rey had not yet considered.
,m While the cooling process took a lot of focus, Rey was able to multitask while moving the ice and using her skills. "I was thinking about it. If it cos I can try and use the alchemy fire in tandem with the fire elental knuckles. I want to see if I can make battle potions while we travel. I know that's a little dangerous but I recently read a book about an alchemist that could make battle potions in their hands using alchemy fire. I think that would boost my battle power a lot."
"You are trying to do sothing that dangerous!? You already have that heavy training armor on you everywhere you go around Genesis and now you are doing that? What if you hurt your hands?" Rey smirked knowing that Su would overreact like that. She was basically the mom of the group when it ca to their safety and protection.
"The alchemy fire will protect . I can use it to deflect small explosions with my punches and cause huge damage to break through defenses. Imagine my elental first, alchemy fire, and defense breaking palm all combined in to a single combination attack? It's all about power and control. I can learn it." The last few words were serious. It wasn't a pledge to Su but a pledge to herself. Rey was doing her best to beco stronger and knew she still needed to bring her alchemy and brawler sides in to balance with each other. This was an opportunity to do just that while also becoming a better attacker for the party. They needed her at her best!
"Fine, but start small. Very small." The slight glare that Su gave Rey reminded her of when Midnight had seen monsters coming after the party. It was a tough glare that said she would not allow any harm to co to them. She saw it as Su becoming a little more dragon like. The good thing was that this stare showed how serious Su's love for her family was and it made Rey a little warr inside.
"Anyways, after this do you want to try the new tea blends we have? Soone sold so from the forest elves and I want to taste them?" This was the best way to distract Su and it worked like a charm. They even had the ti before they were to et Clara.
