"The closer we get to the deadline, the more entries co in. The first stone carved entry has co in and it is a mystical one!" The king of the deep caves was looking at a fully carved statue of a fictional mage.
"The statue is of a popular children's story mage that was able to create a world in a night. They are known as the eden mage. Where this story was not true, it is full of wonderful stories about the growth of mana. Tisi statue follows that sa philosophy and is carved with multiple mana gems to gather elental mana of every single type!"
This caught many on edge. They weren't sure how amazing this was. "Let tell you. The potential this has is spectacular. None in the crafting guild have managed to carve runes in stone without causing so degree of damage. Those that succeed can only carve at most three types of elental runes before the stones crack and break. This is the first ti the guild and many crafters have seen this potential in stone! It is a world shaking accomplishnt!"
As if to follow what the king of the deep caves said, there was a silence that overtook everyone. The stone carver was an older man that seed to have worked with every ounce of strength he had. Yet, before everyone's eyes, mana converged on him.
'The world has recognized the greatest stone carver of a generation. For the seventh ti in this century, the world bestows the title; elental carver.'
The world had seemingly waited for the perfect mont. No one was able to properly speak. The man on the main arena stage with his statue was silently crying while looking up at the sky. He was surrounded by elental mana while his statue glowed faintly. The image everyone saw was not soone sad, but soone so filled with joy that they could not contain it.
As if a signal had been given, the entire coliseum erupted with the loudest cheers and roars of success any had heard. This stone carver had done sothing worthy of absolute respect. Those that crafted with stone would look at this mont for generations.
"You heard the world itself respond through our systems! We are the very first to witness this in Genesis. One of seven within a century to accomplish this feat! Welco the unrivaled champion of the unique category!" There was another roar of victory from every crafter around. The wandering blacksmith personally stood to walk with the stone carver out of the arena.
"Even the world is moved to recognize such works. If a craftsman can do that after so many years, I can only imagine what will happen when there is more knowledge shared." Both Mordant and Ignus appeared to be greedy. They wanted to see what Genesis would produce after every crafter knew spirit forging. After every single person was more acclimated to the origin runes.
"More statues like that can increase the mana around the city. They can also be perfect for elental spirits to feed on as sustenance. That ans they will recover and help spirit craft things more often. That's not just a small accomplishnt. It will affect Genesis for years." Walker spoke with pride, Both Ignus and Mordant finally saw the sa thing Walker dread of.
"I hate that I must admit it… I am convinced. I recognize your village and everything it will be." Ignus had completely broken. He was over his stubbornness and had seen too much which led him to believe that he was witnessing a new era.
"Big words for you. I don't believe I have officially said it though. I accept Genesis as a fellow dragon village and the future of dragon culture." Mordant followed Ignus in his pledge of acceptance. It was a very aningful mont in such an odd place.
"Then I welco you and all mbers of your villages at any ti. They are family as far as I am concerned." Walker gave a soft nod accepting their pledges. It was a silence in the loud cheering as if they were the only three present.
"Has anyone ever seen such a whip before!?" The king of the deep caves was still speaking. He was sharing the leatherworking item that had just appeared on stage. "A whip made of berserker elephant skin carved with earth runes!"
The whole appeared to be heavy and tough to wield. However, when the leather worker gave it the slightest movents, the ground cracked. It was made to literally shatter stone. "Impeccable quality using high tier materials. This woman may look familiar to many, she is the current master leather worker within the crafting guild. She has specifically entered to show off the skills she wishes those who learn from her to match!"
Knowing that another hidden master was showing off was great. The whip was a perfect example of why every material had a use in ways that most did not expect. The skins of certain monsters could be used in leather working which was less popular for most travelers. But seeing that such an amazing result was before them, many people realized the errors of their judgnts.
"I have eaten a berserker elephant before. I took a trip through the deserts to find them. The skin was hard for even my fangs to break. Impressive." Walker had not realized how tough the skin actually was. Therefore, when Ignus expressed this, Walker wondered just how the leather working woman had managed it.
"A master is not a master for nothing. I can't wait to see what else she is capable of now that many people know who she is." Walker and the others watched carefully as more and more items were finished. So were awarded but none ca close to the prior amazingness they had just seen.
