Master Of None

Grey was laughing wildly at the elders' anger. He had expected the blow up of emotion but not like this. It was just too funny for him after he had been forced to make golems and bend to the elder as his master so many times. 

Walker was trying to give Grey pleading looks along with the slowly waking up Remey, Onyx, and Midnight. The elder wasn't doing anything other than cursing his poor luck and how he had not received the skill that was known to be used by forge masters and so rare that it was often thought as a mastery level skill. 

"Of all the things, a child received this skill. A child! Why must the caves forsake me? I just wanted the true skills of my passion and profession." The elders' cries were mirrored by his actions. He threw tools here and there in tantrum which made Grey laugh even harder. 

"Grey! Is this normal? Why did you have me mess with him? I should have just ignored this." Walker was regretting every second he had this skill now. It was turning out to be a huge hit to the elders' respect, or so Walker thought. 

Grey managed to slow his breathing and wipe the tears from his eyes from laughing. "Dwarves throw fits like this all the time. You should have seen it when the hammer he had made cracked down the middle during the cooling process. He made every apprentice in the high forge tremble and make hammers until they could use a different one every day for a month." Now Walker understood why there was more than just a stubborn stereotype for a dwarf. There was also the brutal anger they could wield. 

The two fire spirits moved towards Remey and Midnight in excitement. They had been caught up in absorbing the fire elemental mana from the forge but now that the elder and Grey were acting so boisterous they were more interested. "Ah well, before the old man comes back to his senses let me take that ire spirit to go and start testing its golem." The fore spirit was gone from Midnight in a blink. It was extremely excited to go and try out its dwelling core. 

"Midnight, the golem won't be exactly like a dragon. You might be tougher than it and it won't be able to level up like you. But we will do our best to improve and strengthen it. But sometimes we will need to leave it stored away or to protect the mansion." Midnight looked to understand well but Walker still felt bad to break this to her now. However, the size of the golem could limit what the party did if they were not careful of where they brought it. Walker also understood that the fire spirit may be unhappy but he would cross that bridge when he got to it. 

"Ugghh! The world is unfair and it mocks me." The elder slumped in to a chair finally having exhausted himself. "Who would have thought that you would go to check on the golem and end up with a skill any dwarf would give their soul for. I would even give my arms if I had them." The elder laughed harder than Grey had making Walker relax now that the elder had returned to a more normal action. 

"Now, what do you plan from here? I have these knuckles done and the mana gems in them were reinforced. Thanks to that strange alchemy fire spirit they became completely red and the mana gems are filled with some unique fire elemental mana." Remey was sliding on the gloves as the elder spoke making Walker unsure if the question was for him or Remey. 

The gloves appeared the same except for the metal parts added so that the knuckles could slide on and off. However, the silk that have been white was a deep flame red like the alchemy fire spirit. Remey also appeared to fit in them much better along with the alchemy fire spirit that moved to dwell within as soon as it saw Remey putting on the gloves. 

Seeing Remey look at him, Walker knew the question was for him. "I was thinking that my party should head back. We helped where we needed to, have invited your people and all three kings to the summit, and also managed to solve a problem between the elves and the dwarves. I'm sure some elves will come to visit soon too. But it might be better just to go to where the new city will begin to be built." Walker thought that it would be better for Genesis city to be the place the dwarves and elves meet to discuss spirit forging. 

"No, I think having more evidence to show them will be better. I will craft more and learn to speak with spirits better. When the summit comes I will speak to the elves on behalf of the three kings. They will only send one of them thought. Most likely that cave rat since he seems to be ready to throw his weight around and act like a king." The elders' hearty laugh was followed by more. 

"I will personally send my own golems to your city though. I expect they will be very useful for the clearing of the land." This was a nice surprise since the city would only progress faster with the more assistance they received. 

"In that case, let me use the knowledge transfer skill from the educationist title. I can only use it once a month but it should help you for a week. I trust that you will learn enough to at least speak the basics with the spirits. I know it may be tough since dwarves aren't known for magic." Walker was a little apologetic for hoisting this trial on the elder but the elder appeared excited.
