Chapter 2197: 2197. Crossed Paths
"I came because I need your help getting some of the new herbs you have. Mainly just one that's growing." Remey had managed to track Alma down.
Originally, Alma had been moving toward the fire elves so she could speak to them, but as hse had, she found herself being caught by Remey. Ignus just stood with them, not saying much, more like he was the one being dragged along. A somewhat comical thought to Alma.
Ignus was the older and more powerful dragon after all. Dominator dragon at that.
"So you went out hunting for me?" Alma found this funny since she was sure that Remey must have run through quite a few different places trying to catch up to her. Especially since there were many places to go on her to do list.
"And to make sure you had the time to help me, we made the arrangements with the fire elves and the dragonkin to have a space for the snow elves, frigid ice elves, and the water elves to have a chance to learn from their records once they have been copied."
"Wait, what!?" This had been an argumentative point.
Not because there was the information being hidden, no, it was because the different elf villages had started acting as if they were being repressed by the fire elves since their records had been somewhat damaged in their recent history before they came to Genesis.
The snow elves were a separated group of ice elves that had left their village to form a new one. This came about as they originally believed that genesis was a place that would go against the purity of their mana. It made things much more confusing because that led the ice elves to take on an older name for their specific kind of elf. The frigid ice elves.
Both groups had gone to the water elves who had similarities with them and decided to act as the middle group to keep the younger snow elves and the frigid ice elves from fighting. Basically saving the snow elves from getting their butts handed to them by their elders. Not that they couldn't do with some heavier handed education and reprimand.
"It was the snow elves that claimed that there were hidden documents referencing how the ice and snow elves, or the frigid whatever, were able to use their fire mana to counter them and weaken their magical skills that used water mana in the form of ice."
Alma was still trying to understand how something causing a lot of arguing had just been solved so easily. "The fire elves were angry at this,m but Ignus and the dragonkin told them that they would help translate and make copies of all their magical training and historical documents. It was easier for them to help that way."
"We were just exploring these nurseries since they were valuable. Walker said that some of these are false flame maples and the seeds had been mixed. So we were separating them. They actually have no fire affinity at all." Gil tried to explain why they were here since it would look like he was giving the herb sprouts away to Walker if he didn't.
It wasn't that Alma would hurt him if he did so, just that he knew very well she would not be happy. And if he didn't keep her happy, well, everyone knows how that would go for the husband.
"What!? False flame maples? Aren't they able to absorb fire mana but they just push it down to the roots causing a weird crystalized root like the aged ginger roots found in desert oasis? That could be very useful. I wonder if the condense crystallized roots have fire affinity strong enough to make potions that draw out or help process fire mana if it's too dense within the body." Now Remey was brainstorming new potions for treating a body with too much fire mana within.
While her mind was always working on potions like this, Remey had this first thought completely because there had been a few people suffering from what had begun to be called mana sickness. People who were not adapting as well to the denser and purer manas flowing in to the world now that balance was restored.
They had build ups of certain manas they had affinities for within their bodies which had yet to adapt. Causing them to need special healers and mages to help move the manas along naturally. Or else they would be trapped with various ailments related to the mana they had issues with.
"Since I don't think I have any control over any of this, just do what you want. Walker, thank you for helping. Your appraisal is definitely better than the basic appraisal most people are getting after using the all around appraisal magic scrolls made based on your skill. We might improve that later as we learn more. Gil, since you have this covered, why don't you help with my next task. There are still some new archers that are in a class with a master archer right now." Alma smiled and Gil realized he was not able to escape now.
