The room continued to shake as Keen tried to pull him back, his hand reaching for his weapon as he felt the same fear rolling down his spine in waves. His eyes were staring at the woman who continued to have this powerful aura rolling down her neck and shoulders like a perfect divinity cape.
It was almost overpowering as the room shook with power and energy, the scent of moist dirt catching his nose as he just backed away further. He had no chance of fighting such a monster; it was clear this woman was a divinity or a divine goddess that had descended, her gaze powerful and commanding with a beauty that made him want to weep.
It took but a few moments before grass started to spring up between the gaps in the stones under his feet. His eyes were looking down to the floor as he watched mother nature itself pushing the rocks apart, carpets of grass pushing the level aside.
The wall started to grow small mushrooms, vines, and moss that began to spread rapidly through every space. It was clear that the power was creating the life around them as even a few screams in the room next to them echoed out.
"Stop! I get it!"
Even when he commanded, the woman just smiled at him with no intention to stop. Why should a Goddess stop for a mere mortal?
The next instance a few large plants grew from the floor. A mixture of sunflowers, corn and other tall plants and bushes. Eventually, the power subsiding as the entire room was transformed from a dark and rather bland stone room to one with life and energy.
Auryn reached out as she grabbed one of the stocks of corn. Her smile was growing as she quickly picked up the table that became knocked over as the room was transformed, placing the corn on the table before putting it back down.
"That is how we can produce so much food. Do we need to answer any more questions?"
Standing almost like a mouse cornered by the largest meanest cat he had ever seen. Keen just nodded his head. "No more questions. Please give me a moment so I can go speak to my supervisor and process the paperwork."
Similar to a mouse and with an agility that even could put an elf to shame as the dwarf dived out of the room, his footsteps echoing down the corridor as a few other sets of footprints followed.
Kaye stood at the edge of the room as well, staring in shock as Auryn had caused such a powerful move. It was such a contrast to the previous time as she looked at her.
"How can you control that so well?"
Auryn took a moment as she placed down the chairs, sitting back down, head currently stained in sweat as she smiled to Kaye.
"I practiced every day, turning sand to fertile land. It got greater every day I practiced. Compared to the lifeless desert sands, this was easier and smaller."
Kai sat back down with Denoth seeming only slightly unsure as he took a seat as well, Kaye the last one as she took a few more moments before taking place next to Auryn.
"Do you think this is wise?"
Denoth said as he looked to them all, his eyes focusing on Auryn as he asked his question, clearly looking rather worried about the tactic the woman used.
"It is a perfect idea. They know I'm not Saleh as she has a human form while I'm an Elf. If they dislike the empire and the Goddess, then I'm the perfect ally for them. With the ability to produce food at the rate I showed I'm even better than a perfect ally for them."
Auryn finished as she picked up the corn, taking a small bite from it as she chewed for a few moments. "Mhm, this corn is lovely. It always amazes me to see this power when I had almost no power in magic."
Denoth looked to the others before back to Auryn. His worry still evident as he gulped before beginning to speak again.
"Are you not worried that they will want you and not bother with the town. They do have the strongest military compared to any other independent nation."
Auryn turned to look at Denoth, her arm moving over as she pressed her hand against his shoulder, grasping as she provided some comfort.
"Worry not; I have Nathan. If I can do this and I make sure to mention my good old teacher Nathan. They will not make any sudden moves. I'm already guessing the news of the Vortex army getting defeated has spread like wildfire which could become a vital bit of intel to strengthen our side."
Denoth just nodded his head as he still felt a small sense of worry, the woman acting similarly to Nathan by using a show of force or power to gain the recognition of others. It was clear to see why when others around them bowed and responded in kind to such displays.
"Also I'm sure you know that the town of Baski is running dry. Nathan having recruited most of the people in town. I'm guessing you know what will happen now."
Auryn finished as she took another bite of the corn, Denoth feeling his body quiver as he knew what was bound to happen.
"Without a supply of food, water and the necessary wood that gets harvested from Baski. It's easy to see our town getting cut off and becoming starved in a rapid time frame."
Auryn nodded to the statement made by Denoth as she turned her head to the door, hearing the footsteps growing closer as she placed her corn back down.
Her smile shining like a beacon as her Aura was less mortal then before as she had a small glow surrounding her that made her feel more like a living saint then a regular woman.
"It's show time everyone. Lets get not only a trade deal but an allience. I want Nathan to acknowledge me over everyone else. Including a snotty old hag."
