Master Of None

' Stella- Phoenix blood harpy

This is a harpy that recently entered its secondary growth phase. The chance of a harpy unlocking one of the bloodlines known in other avian birds that have intermingled in the harpy race is very slim. However, it is often detected on the eggs when they are young. This causes the parents to ignore them and predators to consume them. Sometimes the egg manages to hatch or somehow end up in other places other than a traditional harpy nest. The phoenix bloodline is extremely rare and phoenix monsters are rarely seen outside of volcanoes. A phoenix blood harpy has the chance to unlock a myriad of fire skills and will often be able to mix their wind and fire affinities. They will also be able to awaken the unique skill rebirth in their adulthood. Any monster ever known to have a phoenix bloodline has been seen to outclass even the strongest of their species but will often choose to avoid violence unless necessary.' 

Walker choked on the air in his lungs for a second. He knew all about phoenix monsters and how they had managed to mux in to many races. But actually meeting one with an active bloodline was something people only dreamed about. The phoenix was considered an unkillable monster with the most valuable feathers in the world. Mainly because the feathers were multiple colors and were used in life saving potions that recovered mana and health points. But no one ever gathered these feathers due to their rarity. This wasn't even something that Stella would have known until she hit this growth stage of her life. 

The skill that could save them was also rare. The phoenix had a skill that they could use over and over again but those monsters that were mixed with its bloodline would get the more simple rebirth skill. That meant that they would survive death once back to full strength and health. Something like that could change the tide of any battle or situation. And Stella was hiding this from someone she trusted most of all. 

"Are you alright Walker?" Elise was worried that Walker was having some problem since she saw him coughing in his surprise. 

"Yes yes yes yes yes. I'm fine. Nothing. I was just caught in thought about how amazing the tower is. You know. Just so life changing since I can feel the towers' effects everywhere we go. Hey, I was just wondering, are there any avian type monsters that can give myself and a few others a ride over to the demi-human kingdom? We are going to the water elves to try for their relationship in Genesis." Walker changed his thoughts quickly due to the panic in Stella's eyes. 

Elise looked at him wondering if he was sane. "I can go check. Just hang out here for a minute." Elise ran off toward one of her fellow tamers in charge of transporting materials. 

"Stella, I don't know why you don't tell that to Elise. But you will need the right materials to properly grow that bloodline. Speak with Onyx and he will help you get whatever you need. But make sure you let Elise know." The steel in Walker's voice made Stella flinch. She had been worried that Walker would say something. But now she knew that Walker was looking out for her best interest. Stella nodded slightly and showed pleading eyes. "I won't tell her, you will. You could get hunted for such a thing. In Genesis, you should be protected though." 

Since Stella had awakened such a bloodline, Walker knew that there would be a lot of danger when it was made known. However, in Genesis, there were many beings that could protect her. There was also the fact that many other harpies now called Genesis home. It would be considered starting a war to go after Stella. Along with the benefits of the city having what Stella may need to grow over time. 

"Looks like I can spare three mountain eagles. They are a little larger than the hawks you have ridden before but they are a little faster. They are also heading to the demi-human city to get the next set of supplies we need. It should work out." There was a proud tone in Elise's voice. She had just barely caught them before they left and held them off for a day. "Early tomorrow morning you need to leave or wait another three days. Up to you." 

"That sounds perfect. Thank you so much. I will let everyone know! I will bring some of my mother's cooking as a thank you!" Walker took the chance to run off. He left Elise wondering what was going on. She would have given him a tour of the underground area that was nearly finished by the dwarves' hard work. 

"I feel like with all the running Walker does he has run around the entire world by now. How does he even have more to explore?" The joke seemed to go right over Stella's head. "And now you are all distracted too. Weird day." Elise wandered off after Stella finally snapped back to reality. She flew in to the sky deep in thought so that she would be able to decide her future path. 

Gil, Alma, Midnight, and the dragonkin took the news of their early departure well. It seemed as if they were more excited to get out and go somewhere that posed a challenge for everyone. "I really just wonder why the water elves seem to have so much distrust and lack of desire to be with others. It just doesn't make much sense. The forest elves were able to open up and even listen at first. But the water elves are even more strict." Walker mumbled about his own theories while he got ready for a good nights' sleep. His wonder about the water elves did not sit right with him. He had a tinge of a bad feeling about the water elves.
