[OP: ]
They watched as the small island in the middle of the lake inside the cavern with the open ceiling became the gathering spot for the creatures present in the vast cave.
Surrounding the crystal flower, the Elemental Helix, they waited with a unanimous calm.
The flower that was believed to be a gateway to the spirit realm, was the centre of attention for the creatures present, but they were not admiring the awe of the green spiral of crystals.
They were waiting for something else… and, when the humanoid visitors of this cave looked in the direction of these creatures, the One they had been waiting for finally showed themselves.
-Oooooooooooooong!
Suddenly, the cavern shook.
Everyone felt a sudden sense of danger for a moment before suddenly gett8ng washed up by a wave of serenity.
The creatures that had been calmed all this time started producing various kinds of sounds and some of them seemed to have started singing a unique hymn of praise.
-Zaaaaaaaaaa…
The density of Mana inside the cave increased, and along with it, the countless spirits that had been present in this space but were invisible to all naked eyes, materialised in their physical forms.
-Oooooooooooooooong…!
Space twisted, moonlight that was scattered all across the cave gathered together and became small beads of physical light that seemed like the thousand year old pearls born in the deepest part of the most dangerous seas.
"They saved the merchent…"
"Muuuuuuuu~!"
"Cawwwww! Cawwwwww~!"
"GURAAAAAAA!"
Along with the single human voice that reverberated throughout the empty cave, the music born from the amalgamation of the various noises produced by the creatures of the cave gave birth to a phenomenon that froze the hearts of those witnessing a scene of this scale.
-Swiiiiiiiiiiiiiish…
A magnificent beast appeared on the island.
-Ooooooooooooooong…!
And every being on the island, in the lake, and on the ground where the humans stood with their friends, including the spirits beings filling this cave, welcomed Their arrival.
"The Ruler of the Nine Mountains…"
It was a divine creature.
Their presence commanded respect from all the creatures present, including the humans who had been awestruck by the presence that felt unjust compared to the form they possessed.
{ "Greetings, children." }
The creatures around the Elemental Helix bowed to the divine beast, recognizing their unfathomable importance. It was a rare sight to see such a creature, and everyone felt honoured to witness it… of course, though.
There were exceptions.
"Cute…"
"That's the ruler of these mountains? The divine creature that saved the Lord Adam Lothschild?"
"Damn. I didn't expect Them to be so…"
"Adorable!"
"What might they be talking about…?"
"Shuuuu. Just… watch."
He was given the freshest food and the cleanest water in this paradise, a precious chance to live in this place for two years and recover completely from the physical and mental injuries, and when he was ready, he revived a unique present from the savior of his life… in the form of an unforgettable experience.
-Swiiiiiiiiiiiish~!
Winds started blowing in a certain way as the ruler spread their golden wings.
-GHRRRRRRR…
The combination of the noises from the creature turned into a melody so powerful, everything in the cave except Them became soundless.
lost their sound.
It was a powerful combination, and who witnessed it lost their breaths along wither their sounds as well.
Their hearts even stopped for a moment, however, what transpired after that was even more intense…
"Damn…"
Even Eon was the same as everyone else as they saw the golden wings of the small looking hamster like being turned into something so majestic it resembled the heavenly messengers who had flown down to the mortal realm to announce the words of the lord.
His black body had turned into a ball of light and the wings that resembled the wings of a bird made this creature seem like a familiar of the angels described in the stories… however, this particular creature was no messenger from above.
It was a creature of nature born from the will of this very world… an origin beast that was called with a certain unique name.
[{ *A Maintainer…* }]
Only on m v|le|mp|yr
They were in the presence of a creature so old that it was one of the oldest beings present on this island after the ancient oak located inside the grand academy or the Keeper located in the place he was building his new house in.
An origin beast that had achieved divinity through the achievements, recognition, and the power obtained from the nature that They were born from.
They were a being that was beyond this physical world, a being that, much like a phoenix, dragon, or kraken, was a (White) ranked being who Mana was beyond what could be measured or fathomed by the human limitation.
They were born for the task of maintaining the place they were assigned, and in the cases of this being, it was these mountains that not only contained the creatures it housed, but also this unique gateway that was connected to the world of the spirits.
They were a unique beings
And, at this moment, They were performing a unique dance that, at one point in time, had also inspired the richest person to have ever lived, to achieve everything that they achieved later in their lives.
{ "O' beginningless mother of all." }
The golden feathers from Their wings scattered all across the cave, and became the spotlight for the creatures that joined Then in this performance.
-Ooooooooooooooong!
They also became the ground on which the spirits of the winds later sat and maintained the right currents of the wind in order to support the (Prayer).
{ "We praise thee." }
Gasps of awe could have filled the cave had they still possessed their voices, but this unique moment had taken them away already.
They only had their eyes and their souls left in them, their bodies paralysed with the unique overwhelming feeling of reverence.
{ "Bless thy children and these mountains with your graceful blessings." }
They wanted to describe this performance, but their minds were not processing anything at the moment.
Anything other than their awe towards it, certainly.
