Master Of None

"Upon reaching desired location call out for the book of towers." The three just looked at the book sitting in the sand. "That's all!?" It was understandable that Walker was worked up. They had not expected such a thing to happen. Who would ever imagine an entire tower just folding in on itself and leaving the sand to fill the space it had been. Even the sealed floor had been filled with sand below them. 

"I knew that magic was amazing. We were even teleported by spatial magic. Twice! But this is something even more…" Su couldn't find the words for it. She was at a loss. 

"The desert elves were studying something so amazing. They lived in a city with a tower of advanced magic from years ago. I can't believe they didn't all become masters of the magic they studied. The tower magic voice even said that its people left for somewhere. Their city didn't fall in to ruins. They left it behind for others!" This was very exciting for Alma. It meant that an advanced magic race might be out there somewhere. It wasn't like they didn't know that other planes of existence weren't there. Many knew of the rare summoner classes that could summon elemental beings from elemental plains. Walker had even seen a pure light griffin from one such plane of existence. 

Walker suddenly stopped and changed the eternal orb in to a sword. His slash surprised Su and Alma who had not seen anything. But when they noticed that Walker had slashed a small yellow speckled spider in half they realized what had been left behind like them when the tower condensed in to a book. "The monsters were left on top of the sand with us!" 

There were more of the yellow speckled spiders attacking other monsters. Zombie sand elves with skeletons were fighting whatever was alive near them. Some yellow centipede were wrapping around larger yellow speckled spiders. What stood out though, were the large round beetles that everything avoided. 

'Acid scarab

The acid scarab is a terrifying monster that likes to be in the highest heat. They are a species that develops extremely potent acid in their bodies by absorbing the sunlight to rot the food in their bodies. The higher they live and grow the more deadly they get. They often hunt large prey and spend weeks devouring them. Every single monster and animal in the desert knows to hide from them. They are so acidic that their own bodies dissolve when they are killed and their mana source interrupted. Even the most experienced adventurers have lost their lives to this monster. The best advice is to leave them alone and run. If in a battle with them find a way to cool them down so that they want to warm up instead. They usually sleep during the night unless disturbed.'

"I would say they are disturbed. Run!" The girls didn't need to even listen to Walker fully. They were leaving with him already. The number of monsters in the tower was higher than expected. There were also exposed buildings that were attracting the monsters within them. The noise of battle and violence was enough to make the silent desert night very very loud. 

Their run away from the mass of monsters and through the buildings protruding from the sand was not an easy journey. They had lost the torches and Walker didn't have any way to create a light orb, mostly because it would attract the monsters to them. However, he did think of using the luring orb and sent it to float behind him. Since he got far away from the two he sent out they faded away fairly fast. But it was enough for the monsters behind the three to be distracted. 

None of them were sure how far they had run or how long. The only thing they knew was that the only thing they could hear was the blood pumping in their veins. The monster's battle had been lost and they had been lucky to run toward the direction of the moon since it was the only real landmark in the darkness. 

"I don't want to come here again. Never again. Towers that turn in to magic books, monsters that fight each other and us, and the heat! Never again." Su screamed this out to the world without a care for any monsters nearby. It was only right that she was allowed to vent her frustrations. The entire reason they were here was too stressful anyways. 

"How could some magic rune consciousness ancient race thing just do that. Shouldn't it have a better way of sharing whatever I wanted to share? It even filled in that whole space with sand. I think it was the additions the elves built on to the tower. Has it been fully working this whole time but dormant? How did it work? What could make that? Why would a race leave that tower for others if it was so advanced?" Walker was pacing side to side. He had lost all of his mental strength becoming burdened with endless questions. 

"It's amazing though, it could do more than just save Genesis. I bet it will make everything better. I doubted that a mage tower could really make the races live longer, but seeing that makes me sure it's true." Alma was in her own daze. She was too impressed and could not wait to see how great it made her own people. 

"Stop. Both of you stop! We have a purpose here. Whatever that tower is and whatever it can do is not important. We have the magic slate or tablet thing we needed. Let's get moving and get home. We have people that need us." Su nearly slapped both Alma and Walker. She took an attitude that was full of stress yet somehow calm now. It sobered all of them and brought them back to their goal.
