Chapter 1290 1290. Careful Preservation

The mage tower was busy, very busy. Walker found that the dwarves had more or less left the tower alone except for the core members of their investigation team. The rest were elves and some aspiring rune smiths. The arcane scribe was hard at work drawing careful runes and using multiple elemental crystals on the copies of the scrolls he worked on.

Walker watched from the side while many tried to replicate and make their own scrolls. Some of those with the skills were writing using skills that made Walker wonder. How could they write in the air with their mana? How could they use metal sheets as scrolls? How could they use only a single elemental mana to create a complicated rune scroll that needed multiple elemental manas? So many different skills were happening to make the same result. However, one thing was certain, they were all focused with their best foot forward. They had found a master at their craft and were doing their best to learn even a small bit of what they could do.

The elemental mana was heavy as a result. The runes on the outside of the tower also seemed to have been repaired to a degree. They were brighter and seemed to be fuller than before. Part of that was the fact that the tower's runes were being cleaned as people researched them. But it was also because the runesmiths that were exploring the lower floors had begun to understand the basic forms of the ancient runes.

The elemental runes in basic form nowadays were very easy to memorize for most people. It was something that Walker had done when he wanted to find ways to use them. His sister Lisa was even able to sew them in to clothing that he now wore. But the ancient runes were more complicated. The basic patterns for the single elemental gathering runes were full of patterns that seemed to fall back on themselves. It was easier to say that they may be multiple runes than one. Yet the pattern would not work without the full rune being drawn. It was a mystery to most that needed to be solved.

"Sir hero, coming inside to do some research?" The guard positioned outside was surprised to see Walker. He had not expected one of the heroes to be there now when the dwarven army was gathering outside of Genesis.

"Yes, research and training. I will be leaving again soon and I need to get myself ready. I will be locking myself away in the tower for a few days." This was something that the newer guard envied. The desire to put everything in to training just to be able to make a difference was inspiring, he wanted to be the same kind of inspiring to others as this younger boy was.

"Then I wish you luck. The floors are calm with some cleaning and such. Many of the translation materials have been removed and preserved. The rest are what is not understood or what is not permitted to be brought out of the tower due to the runes attached to them." The guard nodded and gave the warning. Walker found himself amazed by the tower again. To think that there were rune formations that could be made to keep something from being removed from a specific area was amazing.

"Fleur, just stay close for now. We need to get up the floors to the elemental floors. We will start with water and work our way through all of them. Then we will get to the highest floor possible and see what we can see. I wonder if there are any floors that have been properly unlocked?" There had been a few floors Walker had not personally been to. Especially the top floor which is for the grand mage when they take over the tower. But they still needed the approval of the tower. However, Walker was sure that there were some hidden floors and passageways. The tower was too tall to contain any such floors.

Those working on the first few floors didn't even flinch as Walker walked in. they were caught up in copying the runes along the tower walls. They were making hand made copies for records and other things. Some were testing the mana output and recording what kinds of mana flowed through them. Others were even carefully cleaning bits of dust and stone from the cracks in the mana. The process was thorough and careful.

"Let's just let them work." Fleur tried to fly off but Walker held her back. He wanted to let the peace and researching atmosphere remain. These runesmiths and archivists were working very hard and he was not the one that would interrupt them. He was proud of this sort of atmosphere and felt great pride seeing those that were recording the history that was almost lost.

His foot hit the steps and he could feel the mana around him becoming denser. The tower was focusing a lot more mana around it now that it was functioning. This realization made Fleur very happy. She became calm and swayed her head back and forth in joy. The air itself was perfect for her to absorb and gain mana. But the higher they went the better it would get. The more she would be able to store and the more she would be able to grow. Before Walker could speak to her again she had melted back into the spirit mark to greedily absorb elemental mana in to it. She was going to be creating natural mana to empower herself and push herself toward becoming the world spirit she wanted to be in the future. Even Walker felt that having a world spirit partner would be an awe inspiring feat, he just hoped that Fleur would still be the fun loving Fleur when she grew up.
