Master Of None

Su was drawn over to witness the next three successful uses of the earth elemental breath attack from Midnight. She had seen the small exclamation from Walker but did not worry too much about it since he was most likely practicing his own skills. Unfortunately, the wear of using the earth elemental mana sent Midnight in to a coughing fit quickly ending their training for the day. 

"You can practice more another day. Tomorrow we will try the light elemental breath attack. You already have decaying flames, the golden flames, you can make regular flames, a wind blade, frost breath, and now earth breath attack. You are learning very fast and your body needs to rest properly." Walker refused to let Midnight tire herself out and end up injured. 

"After you succeed in the light elemental breath attack we will head to the market and see if there are pigs to buy and roast as a celebration. It's a big deal to learn all the breath attacks a dragon has." Su made a very motivating promise to Midnight causing her to prance about instead of becoming dejected that she had been stopped from training. 

"How are you doing with your skills Su? I saw your combination with the earth fortress and shield bash. I think it looked very smooth." Walker had to make sure he touched base on the skill Su trained. This would make it easier for him to train with her when the party was back together. Walker was sure that Midnight would want to show off the attacks she learned even if they were not trained to a viable attack just yet. 

"I feel much more comfortable now that we have figured this out. But unfortunately, I have tired out my partner." Su motioned to the earth spirit that was slowly wandering about the sand that Walker had made to gather earth elemental mana. " If we use more of the mana in the shield it can be bigger. It will still be the same toughness but it can cover more than just the party." 

"That's good news. Especially if we have an escort quest or we partner with someone." It would be expected that the party needed to protect others, so hearing that Su could ask the earth elemental spirit to make a larger earth fortress was perfect. 

"I do wonder what would happen if I partnered with your earth spirit to make it. I can use my high earth sculpting to change it from a round earth dome in to something else." The idea was to copy the tower and wall like the ice border wall Walker had already made. But that would need to come another day when they were not as tired.

"I believe that would be worth training. If anyone can work better with the elemental spirits it is you. The nature spirit is still resting, right? Maybe there are nature magic skills that could work to that ends." The theory Su had was spot on. Walker wanted to try to learn nature magic as well but refused to do so without Fleur practicing with him. He would not rush her to come out of the spirit mark earlier than she needed. 

Walker had not realized that he had the best of every single elemental spirit as his partner. The nature mana could potentially do everything that the elemental mana could do. However, the thought that was dawning on Walker now was about healing. He had some healing magic that was not the best of the best. However, he had seen the high priest use healing magic well above his own. One spell Walker had seen one of the healers at the cathedral use was regeneration. 

This spell may not have been nature magic bit if nature mana was used in tandem with this spell, wouldn't it be stronger? Healing and nature were thought of in close relation by many and that was why some with druid systems or forest mage users' would be able to use string healing magic skills.

"Don't tell me you are going to meditate again? We should take a break. If we push nonstop we will lose all of our resting time like it was never there." The contrast of Su's push push push attitude for training was balanced by the desire to properly rest and take care of themselves. This was something that her healer friends had drilled in to her. They had all seen the direct strain of traveling in their daily lives and wanted to be sure their friend did not suffer exhaustion. 

"You're right. We should go inside and try to make something to eat. Maybe Onyx got back already." The three headed inside while chatting. The only party members that would be missing were Remey who was still at the alchemy building and Gil who was out on his hunting trip. 

"I'm back. I'm back. I'm bbaaacckkk." Zephyr flew around Gil in a swirl while singing about her return. 

"Shhhh, I am on the trail. Don't forget we are hunting a lord boar. They live on the outskirts of the sun hollow forest and are very sensitive to sounds. If you scare them off the little mud boars will alert the lord boar."

Gil had already said this to Zephyr but he wasn't really sure if she would even scare the boar since she wasn't a monster that would hunt them. 

Gil had said he was going hunting but when he met with his father and his fathers' friends he found that they had all become busy. This left him and Zephyr alone to bond. The lord boar was the largest mud boar in a pack. They would often be triple the size of a normal mud boar from hoarding the food and were some of the best boar meat to catch. The only problem was actually capturing and defeating it.
