"You move on. I will start making something to deal with these slime making things." There was a silent rage in the eyes of the king of the surface. He remembered the damage that the acid slimes had done to the dwarven kingdom. He knew that many had been hurt and scarred for the rest of their lives.
"I wish you luck then." Walker had nothing else to say. Everything that the king of the surface needed was already in his hands. He had information and the means to make a change in the battle. Whatever the demons were doing, the slimes would be dealt with soon.
The rest of the group was silent as well. They had all seen or read reports about the acid slimes and the damage they could and did cause. The elves who had heard of the acid slimes had been grateful that they had not faced such a slime. The rot was at least able to be used in positive ways for the forest after being properly taken care of.
As the king of the surface left, Walker decided to fall in to line with the dark and stone elf. He was a little interested in the new allies that Alma had made. Gil clearly had the same thought process since he was right next to Walker. Alma held back letting them have a chance to get to know others instead of just her.
"It's clear that you have seen these slimes before. Should we ask about the story?" The stone elf wanted to know what made every single one of them look so annoyed and angry about the slimes other than the obvious threat to people's lives.
"We first encountered the issue in the forest elf territory. There were rot slimes. Well, purple slimes are what people call them mostly. We managed to help get rid of a giant slime with a few friends we made along the way. If we hadn't then it was going to get in to their city." Gil was pretty unhappy with that memory. He would have been crushed to see such a beautiful place terrorized by the giant slime.
"After that, we were able to help Alma stand up for what she believed and then became allies with the forest elves that had been reclusive and strict. A while later we went to the dwarven underground city because we heard that they also had slime problems." Walker was picking up where Gil was leaving off. The two were perfect storytelling partners.
"They had some acid slimes, yellow slimes. They were eating away at the valuables that the dwarves created. After helping with those issues, we helped them work through spirit forging and discovered the proper path to true spirit forging. That's how I was able to meet Zephyr properly. She's the grand wind spirit resting in this bow and who I have a bond with."
"Gil doesn't just have a bond with her. He's her avatar. He has the title and everything." Walker felt that Gil was trying to hold back too much. But right now he had to make a good impression. Walker was getting the feeling that the dark and stone elves were harder to convince.
'',
,m "You are an avatar of a grand elemental spirit!?" This was just the surprise that Walker wanted to see.
"He is, he is the avatar of the grand wind spirit Zephyr. She was trapped in a bow by someone using spirit forging years and years ago. Eventually, we found the bow while adventuring and Gil managed to reforge it with the help of some dwarven specialists. Just because the dwarves might not use bows, doesn't mean that they lack knowledge on how to make bows. Some dwarves are elite warriors that make their own crossbows."
The insight in to the dwarven society, however small it was, was more than the two elves had. They had been close to the dwarven city in relation to other cities but had never even left to see what the dwarves might do.
"We had a few close encounters with the dwarven miners. But with the right magic here and there we remained untouched. There were no efforts to expand our homes." The stone elf knew that they had more than walled off their city. They had ensured that many caves and tunnels were pushed far away from it.
"I couldn't imagine the world as this from where we live. Things are very different from the stories we were told and the things we learn. What about Genesis? Your home city? Is everyone bonded with spirits and true spirit forging?" The dark elf seemed to be more interested in everything than the stone elf. Yet, after a hard glance, Walker realized that this was because he was carefully hiding his emotions. But the curiosity in his eyes wasn't hard to miss.
"Gil, I'll let you tell them. I want to scout ahead and see what this village looks like. I need to talk to Scylla too." Walker left Gil alone to speak with the dark and stone elf. It was going to be important for Gil to have a better relationship with them since Gil was trying to recreate the high elf dagger style. It would take a lot of effort, but once complete it would be another reason Gil could represent the elven people.
"You wanted to speak with me?" Scylla hadn't missed that part of the conversation. She had been walking with Midnight who was showing off her scales. But now, Scylla had become focused on Walker out of curiosity.
"I wanted to see if you and I could see what this village has going on. You have more battle experience so I can learn from your evaluation." Walker knew he still had shortcomings and this was a valuable chance to improve himself.
