"Hello, we have co to greet the king of the middle. We are here mainly to extend the invitation of the Genesis alliance. But we are also here to assist with the yellow acidic sli issue. There is more to the Genesis alliance that will take ti to sort out, however, we can not worry about that until the people are at ease." Walker paused and motioned for Rey to co forward next to him.
This is Rey, she is our alchemical brawler and she is theorizing a potion that can act as a poison to the acidic body of the slis. Water may be able to dilute them but it takes more than water easily created without causing issues below this level. So a potion to neutralize the sli's body would be more valuable."
"So this is a system that values brawling and alchemy? Strange. But I want to see the proof of your words. You may have the access you desire and I will provide anything you need. But my people are waiting to return to their work and hos, do not make them wait." The words were full of weight but Rey looked ready to rise to the challenge.
"Just show where I can work. I will start imdiately." She looked like she was ready to fight which made the party all the more at ease. She would only look like that if she was ready for what she was about to do, and they knew she would not be giving up. Rey would destroy the very thought.
"Follow my attendant." The king of the middle beckoned for an attendant to take Rey toward the side hall where they could tell were multiple connecting passages. "Now, what of the rest of you. Are you here to wait for your alchemist or will you do more?" These words were again filled with pressure.
"In the anti, we can assist with whatever is needed. Su is our guardian, but she is very well versed in healing so she can assist healers with supplies and such. Gil should take on so slis with his arrows. Onyx should go with Su since I am sure so of the injured you have may be unable to speak. I know the acid is dangerous. Midnight, well. She will probably stay by my side."
The king listened and motioned for more attendants, "Your guardian and snake will go with my right hand to the infirmary. As you assud, there are many who have been injured, and having another set of hands is welco. Many of the children fleeing from the high forge were injured and require care." Su heard this and grew exponentially more determined. She hated to hear that children were hard.
"Leader, I will be giving it my all. Please give so of the potions we have stored." Walker didn't hesitate to pull every single potion he had in the inventory for Su to take. He had many from the elf city and that Rey had made. But to further Su's goals of healing he did not bat an eye at giving them all.
"Brother, I will be helping where I can." Walker could feel a tremble in Onyx's voice when he spoke in his mind. There was a sense of pain coming from Onyx that Walker knew was because of Su's worry. The two were a perfect pair when it ca to how far they were willing to go to help the injured.
"I will see you two later." Walker watched as a few more ca to help carry the many health potions Walker had taken from the inventory. The king of the middle was watching with a cold glare, however, Walker knew it was not cruel but serious.
There were five guardsn that ca forward holding what appeared to be a form of bow. Walker recognized it as a crossbow which was rarely used by humans due to the tougher reload ti and strength. "Your archer can assist my crossbow guard in holding back the slis that attempt to co here from the rchant district. They are constantly coming from the mines and we have lost contact with my fellow king of the mines and underground."
There was a slight pang of worry in the king of the middle's eyes. It was clear that he was uncomfortable with the lack of communication. "Now, what will you do?" The king looked at Walker with an expectant gaze. He was waiting for the leader and the little dragon with him to tell him how they planned to help.
"You ntioned children fleeing from the high forge? I happen to have t soone at an auction nad Grey. I was hoping to et them after we dealt with the sli problem but it sounds like the high forge he told to search for is in trouble. Would I be able to assist with that?" The king stood up imdiately.
"The high forge is where the young get the chance to learn any and all crafting skills. Many of the masters that teach there have their own forges there to teach and experint. Currently, our brightest and most innovative are barricaded there. I will personally head there with you!" There was a flurry of attendants al trying to speak and reason with the king.
"How could I stay here when our future is trapped by so yellow pests. I can't have them snuffed out before they bring glory to the dwarf na!" The king was not having any of it and was already pulling armor from behind the throne to put on over his robes.
Walker felt that he had just set off a very dangerous trap. There were multiple attendants calling for guards and golems. It appeared that Midnight and him would have a full escort and a king with them. "I have been waiting for another chance to get rid of those things trying to eat through our prized high forge. If we can liberate it today then we will shake the earth with our hamrs!"
