The harpy queen lowered herself to the ground, the other harpies stopped a little behind her. From their perspective they were prepared to even head in to the vicious wind currents if they were asked. This was loyalty they had to the harpy queen even before they had beco intelligent enough to beco a recognized race.
For the harpies, the queen was not just a leadership role. She was the most intelligent and developed harpy in their entire race. Not only could she understand wind magic and mana to help her fly, she could naturally help other harpies fly just by being present around them. This fact alone was enough to ensure that an entire group of harpies would fly more smoothly and efficiently when hunting.
Now, it ant that they could all sense the flow of wind currents better. It ant that they were closer to being able to advance their skills by being nearby. For the average harpy, they could learn and develop themselves at a faster rate than what the other harpies without the guidance or support of their queen could.
This was why there had been a shocking arrival of several different harpy tribes in the past month. They felt the true call of a recognized queen in their instincts. Their minds had also sharpened with the boost from the world after it recognized them all as a specific race.
This was why the brown feather harpy tribe, the white feather harpy tribe, and even the dusk harpy tribe, a tribe with dull black and grey feathers, ca to join and follow the harpy queen. It had made a decent scene when these tribes arrived but they had co peacefully and also understood that the dragons were watching, their senses told them it.
As the harpy queen stretched out her wings and the wind pushed against all of them, Walker noticed that each one of her feathers moved with the wind currents. It was almost like watching a map maker begin drawing a map after seeing the horizon or looking from the sky.
The tiniest movents of her feathers were like searching for a path through the dangers. Searching for the source of the wind that she wanted to persevere through. Her adjustnts to her own internal mana to sense the wind was even more advanced than most of the wind mages that Walker had witnessed.
As a harpy, a being ant to fly and spend most of their life within the air, the harpy queen could ensure the best of the best. "I can feel the mana is flowing from a small distance forward. It is spinning around trapped in itself because the colder wind and the warr wind can't balance without another current coming from further or the earth allowing it to slow."
She looked at Walker and he saw she knew he could understand what she was saying. As he had watched her, he grew to understand what she was doing and why. He understood the flow of the wind from the way that she had reacted and also could sense the larger swirling mass of wind mana. He had sensed sothing similar when Ignus and Ventus had worked together along with him before.
The way that tornados happened always had to do with the hot and cold winds of a storm mixing. This was natural. However, here there should not be a sustained tornado of different wind currents. The added wind mana density was causing this which would give them more trouble. And if left alone there might even be a greater density of wind mana that warped space and allowed chaotic manas in to the world.
Now Walker could glimpse the potential future of this land if left alone. While not enlightening or inspiring because of ti mana, it was sothing he could gather information and deduce. A chance that more could co from this and any other mana stagnating areas. It was sothing he could understand whether he had mana sensing abilities or not. Anyone understood that if they left sothing to sit, it would not be the sa if they returned months or even days later.
"Please wait here. I believe that I can help this area calm and even be able to teach the mages and others on their way here later. I also feel that you will sense the changes the mont that I make them." Walker saw the harpy queen and the other harpies had all taken the sa stance to feel and understand the wind.
They would be learning sothing from the changes in this area as Walker manipulated everything. This was an opportunity beyond what they would have normally received. Being able to feel soone with such high mana manipulation changing the way that the winds and the earth balanced one another could give them insights beyond average.
Just their instincts alone would pick up the slightest of changes. When they feel the winds change, they may see errors in how they react to the wind. They may notice aspects of their own bodies and their affinities beyond wind mana if they have them. Or they may even begin to look deeper in to the affinity with wind to discover a new talent related to the kinds of wind there were in the world.
Walker himself set foot in to the air again. This ti though, he channeled his mana and used the ambient wind mana to take the wind dragon form he mimicked after Ventus. This allowed him to focus on wind mana manipulation and resistance while also allowing his senses to focus on it better. He was also altering the flow of the wind mana around him and taking solid control over it.
If Ventus had been here she would say that Walker was acting more like what she had learned about wind dominator dragons as well. He was certainly improving his control of an area and showing what an Origin being might be capable of when it ca to halting mana and making it bend to their will. Not that he was making it halt entirely. He was just directing it towards the natural directions he could sense nature wished it to flow in.
Beyond this, Walker noticed the natural mana following him. It was like nature noticed his effort and began to try and move as it wished and should. He didn't use much of his focus on the natural mana, he just let it attach to him as Fleur and he normally absorbed natural mana in to themselves anyways.
When he saw the swirling mass of wind, there were plenty of plants, branches, and even so monster fur within it. This was the very dangerous aspect of all of this. These mana dense areas could cause death and harm to the environnt and also everything living within it. He was certain so poor monsters had been swept in to this brutal and that anyone foolish enough to brave the intense winds to get closer would find their carriages and even themselves damaged and pulled closer.
Luckily, he could sense and see that there were no rchants or travelers about. No evidence that any had been foolish enough to push through the wind to this point. He could also sense that he would be able to do more than he expected.
Just as space had snapped in to place, this felt similar. The wind was ant to follow the currents of nature and he just had to remind them.
When he reached out in to the swirling mass of wind mana, Walker also pushed his control in to the earth. He felt the earth push back, like it was oppressed by the dense wind mana and had been given the helping hand it needed.
The earth bulged up in to a hill after just a few monts, there was also an added boost of natural mana encouraging it to do so. Sothing that Walker felt was more than just his control and nature taking its course to resu normal formation.
The wind mana slowed imdiately as the currents began siphoning away the wind mana naturally. Walker believed that the mages who ca after he had changed things would still sense the flow and know how things had changed. There would be so lingering effects. There was also the physical evidence left behind.
One larger and deeper breath later, Walker exerted even more force. He halted the flow of the tornado entirely. It sent smaller wind blades as it broke apart but he easily halted them from cutting in to the earth or spreading any damage nearby. He saw the clouds begin to shift higher in the sky.
Walker stepped higher in the air while adjusting even more. His focus only grew while he noticed that the harpy queen had already caught up to him now that the violence had left the winds here.
