Su was worried that Walker was harmed in some way. She couldn''t see the fading spirit mark on his hand until she had focused and started to pay attention to the details. "Is that round shaped mark the spirit mark? Did the spirits fuse together? What happened?" Su was still lost since Walker had been the only one that received a system notification.
"I''m fine. The spirits fused themselves together and became a lesser nature spirit. If they can grow enough they will be a world spirit. The system said they are helping to fight corruption. I don''t know how but it''s a good thing. I still have some quest left but I made a huge mess." Walker was still full of his own thoughts about what had just happened but his daze left him wondering what to do with all the mess.
There were countless broken mana crystal shards around him and there was a significant amount of mana left in the air. It was very dense and he had no idea how to deal with it all because he was sure that when Zephyr stopped helping it would all dissipate in to the city cousin g some trouble.
"Don''t you have more dormant spirits? Su and Zephyr exined it. Also, no one introduced me to Zephyr. Even Ste met her flying in the air." Elise was puffing up her cheeks in annoyance but continued to point to the crates left inside.
"Great idea!" Walker pushed his other thoughts aside and used the current issue to distract himself from the desire to mediate of just thinking through the fact that a world spirit had just been born. Or even to push off the thoughts on what he was going to make with the materials now that he wasn''tpletely set on a staff, even though he still wanted a staff at first thought.
"Zephyr, if you can contain all the mana with your wind for a little longer I will start to use it to awaken the other dormant elemental spirits!" Walker gave the call as he went inside and dragged out the crates. Su and Elise jumped to action as well and pulled others from the dining hall.
Ze[hyr had a snaking smile that said this was what she hoped for in the first ce. "I have been missing the years when there were so many spirits that I always had a friend nearby." She may have bonded with Gil and created a link unlike any other. But she missed the full feeling she had when there were unique spirits at every turn.
Walker was quickly [ulling dormant elemental spirits from the crates and organizing them in to groups. He knew that the mana would be absorbed no matter what by them but decided to use his newfound enlightenment on how all elemental mana worked together to cause natural phenomena.
He willed the different elemental manas to move toward each other causing a simr chasing effect on a smaller scale. This allowed the mixed elemental manas to flow past the dormant elemental spirits. The dormant spirits were able to pull at the elemental mana and separate them as it moved past them. The process was slow and taxing on Walker but it was the most efficient and safe way to deal with the elemental mana since the crystals that had housed it were broken.
"He''s really gotten a lot stronger. I would hate to spar with any of you now." Elise could only watch in amazement at the higher control over the elemental mana that Walker was disying.
"He has a long way to go. That spirit that came together was one of each element. It''s a nature spirit and it can use all mana regardless of the element. He can use the element separately but fusing them is still challenging to a degree. Fusing all of them, well, that is where things get fin." Zephyr still had mana secrets and Su could not hope to hear all of them.
With Su and Elise being teased by Zephyr they were able to take the time to get a little more detail from her that they could help Walker with. Unfortunately, Walker was exhausted before they could speak to him. When the swirl of elemental mana stopped and there was none left in the air other than the basic amount everywhere else. Zephyr released her wind surrounding them. The dormant spirits had all cracked and awakened in turn.
"Hellooooooo my friends. Waker is tired not so we will have a ss on what the world is like now!" Zephyr left Su and Elise taking control while the two helped Walker back inside and Su started to make up some tea that Remey had made.
"Remey said this is made from the poorer leaves of some herbs used to make mana potions. She said that they are not as good for the potion but can be used for a regenerative tea mix." Walker was surprised by it but just drank it down since he was too tired toment.
"So...the spirits are awake…" He looked up from the empty cup. Walker wasn''t sure what ton say on the topic.
"I would say they are. It was the coolest thing I have seen in my life. I didn''t know you could do all that." Elise flopped in to a chair and just stared out the window at all the elemental spirits. "Oh, and how in the world could you tell what that cute pixie was saying. Actually. Why could I?"
"You could understand Zephyr? What about the other wind spirits?" Su felt like the mysteries and things to explore had been doubling every moment.
"Yes, those green wind spirits kept yelling about feeling wind and flying. But the other spirits were silent." Elise just looked at the pair questioningly since she was just as lost as they were.
