Master Of None

Chapter 1141 – 1141. Adapting

The group was looking back at the now shining castle of the water elves. They had focused on the castle most of all through the last few days due to the cultural significance it had. The water elves seemed to improve with the looks of the castle as well. For the way they acted, there didn't seem to be any hatred effect in them. What really surprised Walker was the fact that they had started to speak about helping others more and more. 

"Do you think they will be able to adapt to Genesis?" Alma had been stuck in her own mind too much. She was overwhelmed with all the possibilities she had in the future. 

"Yes. The way they act, they will be an integral force when it comes to uniting the races. Just look how much they accepted the half demons. They were forced together but they are closer than any in Genesis right now. Although, they may look at the merfolk a little weird." Walker threw a shot at Leon who just shook his head in defense. 

"Walker's right. They will come together very well. I think they even like the human healers that came. They started to show off the water healing skills that they have and started to record down different healing skills in some books to be brought back to the cathedral." Out of everyone, Gil had witnessed the most water magic. This gave him higher insights in to what the water elves had been capable of at the height. Now that he could see this he was able to show off that knowledge and share it when they returned to Genesis. 

"They lost a lot of their knowledge over their years of abuse. But if they come and join the mage tower they should be able to absorb more of what was left behind. I even think they might take the lead over other mages and runesmiths." Walker knew well that losing something would give birth to an insatiable appetite to surpass what was lost. Now that the water elves had such a goal they could pursue it all with newfound strength. 

"I do look forward to sharing these events with my elder and their Lord. I feel that the future is much more than we know. I will certainly fight for the chance to follow my elder to the royal court and show them the power I have seen." Neil glanced at Walker and Midnight. He knew well that they were the driving forces here. They may not be the most powerful beings in the world and many could break them. Yet, they were able to change the way that people thought and that was the power they had. 

"I guess it's time to send you off. I will return to the city in a few days. I have sent some ahead to speak on my behalf with reports. Just get back safely and prepare for your next outing." Scylla was going to remain in the area for a while. She knew that having someone strong like her would help cement the water elves' strength again. There was also the added benefit of making them more comfortable with the demi-humans which they had once conflicted with. 

"We will keep an eye out. Now that there isn't poison everywhere and patrols I assume that there will be monsters trying to take over the open territory." Walker had mentioned this before but was trying to keep it fresh in everyone's minds. It was a fact that they would all deal with. It was also a reason why the water elves needed to get their mages back up to strength. They would need to be able to fight off returning monsters. 

The group gave their last farewell as they left but Walker swore he saw a few mages dropping fish eggs in to the lake as he turned away. He was excited that the mages had managed to hide away some of the natural species so that they would be able to return the lakes to greatness. The water elves had been sneakier than he knew. But in a way that was respectable. They valued nature the same way that the first elves did.

"Do you really expect to see more monsters on the way?" Alma wasn't sure what they would see. 

"I don't think we will see much when it comes to the small monsters. But I think we will see the larger territorial monsters. Do you think any mud deer will shop up?" Gil was the one to ask this question to since Gil had seen them before. 

"I would say it's guaranteed. They like to stay in areas like this and the only reason we see them around Genesis is that the rover is so close. Now that they have their normal homes back they would run to it. They don't live near the swamps because of the decay and poisons. This is their ideal habitat. And with them, we will see some interesting monsters. I really wonder if any of the brook tigers will show up." 

"Brook tigers are still around? I thought they were extinct?" Alma had heard of them but didn't expect them to be real. 

"Of course they are real. They are illegal to hunt in our home kingdom. But I think they will have a comeback now. We pretty much figured out why they were so few. The fur they have is very good for materials in just about everything." Gil was happy to share this. He was a hunter, he knew what prey was better for what and how to hunt it. He also knew that he should not hunt under any circumstances. 

"If I remember right, their fur is ideal for deterring other monsters right? Especially the water affinity monster." Neil knew little of this but had learned a little while in the water elf lakes. Walker could only smile before he recalled what he had learned.
