Chapter 2285: 2285. Observing
There were plenty of reasons that Walker could think of that would benefit them in bringing another species back to the world.
Part of it was that the world was changing. Plenty of plants were finally receiving the manas that they needed to grow properly. Other than that, bloodlines and ancient aspects of monsters were returning because they also had the environments and manas necessary to do
so.
This meant that a monster like the Amorak might have a place in the food chains. Ensuring that certain monsters did not grow out of control. Or they would be food for a monster that needed a prey that could allow them enough nutrients and mana to grow.
However, Walker, Onyx, and Mordant focused on the fact that Amorak were a species of monster known to be more intelligent. They could have been intelligent enough to be able to eventually become a monster race recognized by the world.
If this was the case, then they had just been active at the wrong time. In ancient times, they had been hunted too much, therefore, they had been brought nearly to extinction.
Because of that, the ancient angels had attempted to find their eggs and force them in to dormancy. It was somewhat similar to the eggs of the abyssal and heavenly serpents at the time.
Seeing that even the ancient angels who hid away in underground areas did this, it was best to remain focused on the intelligence aspect. The Amorak could become a race responsible for individual hunting or exploring.
Their characteristics being that they preferred to be solitary was not an issue at all. Some Demi-humans preferred to remain in the wilderness over moving to Genesis with the majority of their people and kingdom. Such as the rabbit trait Demi-humans who were clearly allied with Genesis and the Demi-human kingdom.
"We can collect all the dormant eggs without issues. I will also collect the shelves with my high spatial storage since the runes are still intact. That's the best process I can think of."
Seeing that Onyx and Mordant agreed, Walker began doing so. Meanwhile, Onyx and Mordant focused their attention on some collapsed shelving which appeared to be different.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
"The wood these shelves are made from smells like mushrooms." While Mordant would not have found this odd since wood would rot over time, it didn't make sense that the wood was intact, did not show signs of rot, and had just fallen and broken due to shifts in mana and the world as a whole.
"I agree. The wood is similar to the cedar trees within the elven forests. But it's purple instead of red. Ever so slightly purple." This led the pair to determine it was a different species of cedar than what grew nowadays.
Between their examination, they also found eggs and not been part of these shelves at all. There was too much wood to be shelving in general. "I see now. This wasn't just storage for those eggs. They optimized space."
Time would tell what else could be found. Right now, it would take some weeks to develop a proper team and have them lead it. Regardless, even if they found nothing more, this was enough to make a great difference in the future.
As the three worked on the ruins, Gil had brought together the gale horn ogres with the dragonkin. He had explained a great deal with Alma and others, but maintained clarity that he and Ventus needed to help this new race acclimate properly.
His and Ventus's efforts had been directed at finding those who the defenders of the gale horn ogre tribe could connect with. While most had focused on learning to build, others had been too focused on defending that they could not change their ways.
This left a battle ready group who were lost. As such, they were partnered with the wind affinity dragonkin under Ventus. They had been responsible for guarding territories of elder wind dragons and also struggled to adjust to Genesis right now.
The moment the two groups had been brought together, the slightly more adjusted wind affinity dragonkin began teaching the gale horn ogre generals the ins and outs of patrolling the new dragon territory and even in to the wind elf homes.
Gil and Ventus also joined these patrols over the coming days seeing that they had a clear focused vision which spotted risks.
Multiple dangers related to carriages moving dangerously, risky building positioning, and even some slightly damaged roads were spotted within just a day or two. A stunning amount of care was taken proving both had extreme pride in their future and what they would be
protecting.
The desire to protect and foster their people from the gale horn ogres paired perfectly with the pride to protect and grow the dragon territory from the wind affinity dragonkin. Both Gil and Ventus even found themselves learning more from both about observational thinking. At Gil's level and ability to scout, he rarely found such things that he could learn. But being humbled by newer generations and adaptations was constant within Genesis. Enough to make his own pride show in a beaming smile while he walked his patrol beside Ventus. Not that Ventus could hide her own happiness with the situation as a whole.
