Scy stepped on the air effortlessly keeping up with Walker who was dip[ping under branches and sliding in to great leaps. It looked like Walker had done this his entire life, more so than any normal elf. Scy could only look on in amazement as she saw that he was still improving.


    However, the ground was too close and the race was about toe to an end. Scy was not one to let others win unless it was due to their stronger ability and talent. It would have been insulting to someone to hold back when facing them. "You may watch my strongest wind based skill."


    Scy said this just loud enough for Walker to make out. The next thing he knew Scy had called up a small whirlwind of concentrated air and had stopped stepping on the branchespletely. Sher sped down to the ground stopping just about the dirt and softly settled on to it. The only thing she showed was a small smile that taunted Walker to move faster.


    Walker did not even hesitate seeing this, instead, he pushed off the next branch harder than before and lept toward the branch that leaned downward. He managed to slide down it and push off in to a roll. Once he lost his momentum he kicked back up and stood in front of Scy panting. "Made it. Second ce, but still not bad."


    He was proud of his speed and was happy to know that the different movement skills he had could push each other to be better. It was a great trick he would be meditating onter. The possibility that there were many battle and non battle rted movement techniques like the dance of the wild rabbit and the jungle step was extremely high. If more and more of those could work together to make an even better one Walker was sure to set it as his goal.


    "I was sure you would end uping down closer to the back of the pack. But you suddenly overtook Wade and I and I would have been a fool to wait back." Scy could only admit her opinion of how impressed she was. It was always a joy to see someone younger understanding someone, it was just the fact that it had happened so fast in this case.


    "Walker, what did you do? That was way faster than any of the elves I have seen around her run through the trees. Didn''t you just learn how to do it too"'' Wade had just slid down from a branch nearby while Alma and Gil trailed behind him by some distance.


    "Yes, but I just understood a different skill by trying to dodge some of the branches I ran past with the dance of the wild rabbit. The skills kind of worked as two parts fitting together and I learned the high elf system skill jungle step." Walker said this in a matter of fact way making Wade think he had just been read to from a book.


    "You said HIGH ELF!" Alma heard Walker as she and Gil took a step on the ground as well. "We have not had someone who was considered a high elf in forty three years. It is incredibly rare for the blood to be so pure. Thest high elf wasn''t even an elf from here. They visited from the motherke in the far south."


    Wade turned to Gil and looked at him then to Walker and back. "You all deal with this all the time…? I can''t even imagine what your hearts must be able to handle." Wade had just recovered his shock and was instead looking at Gil for the reaction, but Gil just shrugged.


    "I wonder if you could learn some of the same skills that I have. My demi-human traits are from a monster and an ancient one at that. It would be interesting if you were able to learn them. Although some of theme with some very strict requirements."


    Scy was musing through which skills Walker could potentially learn from being around her.


    "Honestly, if you ask Remey and Gil, they would tell you to teach me that air walking skill. I can''t say I wouldn''t be interested. There are elves around that can do the same. Wade called them air strider system users?" Walker looked at Wade who was whispering with Alma over the mention of the high elf skill still.


    "Yes. We have wind strider system users. They have a skill called wind walk, air step, and wind dash. Not many of them gain the system but they are excellent for scouting and delivering messages." Wade was still a little caught on the jungle step skill but he was forced to change subjects.


    "I would definitely like to see that then. I assume they do not use it forbat at all but it would still be nice topare my skills and ability with them. They wouldn''t be able to try somebat would they?" Scy was already gettingbat hungry. She wanted to head out at that second.


    "It sounds like it is time to head to the main training area for the enforcers. Not many are allowed to go there unless they are like myself or Alma have the permission. It is hard for normal elves to even witness the training due to our secrecy, or former secrecy. Now, having guests, there will be a little bit of amotion but it should bring about some nice advancement." Wade was already prepared to lead them to the main training area.


    He motioned for all of them to follow him and the group headed down the familiar market path. Walker wasn''t sure where the training area was since Alma had only told him about the magical and the archer training area. He had no idea how another one would fit within the city, especially one that wasrger.
