"So, I have got a pretty good feel for what everything is marked out for. But there is a space here that isn't labeled on the map." Walker had realized that the area near the tars' guild was left blank. It was a fairly large space and was definitely not sothing that had been forgotten.
"I don't know. Let's go check it out." Su waved for the earth spirit to co along if it wanted to. The stone spirit was lounging with the earth mages and the four appeared to have made a decent connection. Once the earth spirit ca back over to Su, she watched as it lted back in to the earth dwelling shield. It had used a decent portion of the elental mana it had gathered and needed rest.
This was still sothing that Alice found amazing and her jaw dropped while watching it happen. "What's a light spirit like?" Her question was soft. She had been worried that she would sound foolish asking sothing that the Walker clearly knew for a while.
"They like to be high up above everything and look down. They follow the purity of light elental mana and don't interact much with the other elental spirits. As much as they may not show it, they are the sa as dark spirits. I bet they could do a lot when around you since your voice literally makes the light elental mana react. Maybe I should look for one to et you." Walker had not seen Alice interact with a light elental spirit but the thought was now going to be kept in the back of his mind.
"Wow, there really is a lot of space here. I can't believe it will be left empty." Su was the only one paying attention to the surroundings. Onyx and Gil had been idly chatting about his archery range and how it would beco the first ever archery academy.
A soft familiar giggle started up behind them. Soon it was multiple waves of mana sending giggles to them. " Well, you should know that the space is set aside for the elves when they get here. Our queen wanted us to have a small park to rest in. How else would an elf feel at ho?"
The group turned around to find Bree and her elental spirits chasing each other around. "Bree! What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at the forest elf village with your crystal shop?" Of all people that Walker expected to see her of all the elves that would be coming.
"Why wouldn't we bring the best person to open the crystal shops? She is the best person to represent them. We also have her brother eting so of those in the blacksmith building. They are going to have a small conference about different crafting and forging thods. Apparently, so famous wandering blacksmith will be there." Alma stood behind Bree and pretended that her showing up was just a casual occurrence.
"Alma, I thought you would be here much later. The letter you wrote said you might not be able to co at all!" Gil ran over faster than they had imagined him. In just a second Alma was scooped up in a bear hug while she tried to hide her own smile.
"Did you know that Gil and Alma had been sending letters to each other?" Walker whispered to Su who shook her head. She was just as stunned as Walker was. They would never have imagined that Gil was not only speaking with the king and a few other people using letters but also sending them all the way to the forest elf city so he could stay in touch with Alma. He may not often speak up and show off the connections he had, but Gil had many strong bonds.
"Is this Gil's girl friend?" Alice was worried she would appear to be out of the loop if she did not ask Su for confirmation. She also feared she would be rude to the girl she was about to et. Walker and Su just looked at her curious themselves. They had no idea when Gil had been writing and sending the letters.
"When you sent the letter about going to a dragon village I almost had to get the enforcers and charge there myself. How could you go in to the mountains so close to the ti of the summit? I received the letter the day before we left!" Once Gil had placed Alma down she began to reprimand him for his actions. Walker was quick to hide his face a little.
"Walker. We should speak." Bree had lost her bubbly energy. She was straight faced and all the elental spirits were waiting with her. They had finally noticed Fleur sitting on Walkers' shoulder.
"I thought you would want to. I assu that no one has really shared the news about spirit forging either?" This made Alma drop her rant with Gil and focus intensely. "First things first. Su, show them your shield. I will set aside so earth elental crystals as an apology later." Su brought the shield up and coaxed the earth spirit out of it to the shock of Alma and Bree. "As you can see. This is spirit forging. Not that you think it is. This is the earth dwelling shield. That is where the earth spirit can rest if it desires. It has a bond with Su. It's the sa as my eternal orb.
Walker showed the eternal orb leaving his chest plate and how it could change. Fleur understood the demonstration and lted in to it before instantly leaving to claim her spot on his shoulder. "As you can see, spirit forging is a safe practice. It requires the forge master to work with the spirit to create a dwelling item. And yes, this is Fleur, a nature spirit." Walker just held his breath waiting for their response.
