Midnight and the dragonkin did not waste a moment. They left right after Walker had left. Hilda was surprised to see them rush away so fast. She had barely managed to hand them some snacks to keep their energy up. She was sneakily listening in on the conversation. Part of her wanted to stop her son from leaving again but the rest of her was d to see that Walker was growing up so fast. She felt that he had been a baby in her arms just the other day. Yet now, she was looking at a young man living his dreams.


    When Walker got to the space that was set aside for the tamers'' guild he found that the monsters that had been brought with the tamers were working hard alongside the tamers. It appeared that the conversation with the tamer''s guild from multiple people had yielded positive results. There were no aquatic tamers'' in sight but that was most likely because they were not needed. However, that didn''t mean that there weren''t good ones out there.


    Therge monsters that were helping move heavy supplies like stone armored lizards, red skinned rhinos, and even a mountain elephant which Walker had never seen in his life. Even more amazing were the avian type tamers. The iron feather roc that was flying in the air was something that even Walker was jealous of. The iron feather roc was a rare monster that deviated from the normal roc species baked in environment and nutrition. It was considered an impossible flying monster because it shouldn''t be able to fly and yet it could. The unique earth and wind affinity monster broke the way of the world.


    "Maybe I should have brought Midnight with me." Walker felt that Midnight would have been just as amazed by the number of monsters here. He felt that he may have missed the chance for her to get a lot of ideas for her flight training.


    The wind that hit Walker surprised him. But when he looked to his side he found that Ste hadnded right next to him. However, her feathers had changed colors slightly. They were more vibrant than before and had hints of red and even gold in them. The shadow that seemed to follow it was just learning to properly fly through Stes'' shadow. It was clear that the hatchling was worried that Walker would eat it since he had a very intimidating aura due to the natural mana drawn to him.


    "Hello Ste, I came to see if Elise had time to talk for a bit. Think you can grab her?" Ste replied with a slight chirp that sounded simr to a human humming. Walker realized that Ste was developing her vocal cords and would soon be able to sing like an adult harpy. It was a big step for any harpy since in the wild they would use sound based skills. One such skill was a luby that could put their opponent to sleep and allow them time to attack. It was the reason many people attacked harpies on sight.


    "Come on, you don''t have to ask Ste to get me. You should know that wherever my sister is I am there too." Elise came up right behind them and teased Walker a little. Ste hemmed a little again and leaned on Elise''s shoulder. "What do you think? Ste just molted and her feathers are pristine. I think that she will be able to rival any harpy queen there is." If someone could prove that harpies could blush, this was the time to show it. Walker swore that Ste''s face was redder.


    "I didn''t realize you had met the harpy queen from the demi-human city. How did that go?" Walker temporarily forgot what he hade for. This seemed very interesting.


    "Well, the harpy queen has a passive skill that makes harpies want to follow her. But it did nothing to Ste. Then they got in to a little fight and that harpy queen ended up in a very poor mood when Ste beat her. I''m pretty sure that Ste will receive the same benefits when the harpies be a recognized race but I think Ste took that queen down a notch. She was arrogant and not properly working toward the goal she should have. Like, even goblins and grey haired spiders beat her to bing a race because of their hard work and desires." It was clear that Elise did not have a positive view of the harpy queen.


    "I can see how that may happen. If Ste resisted a skill that should work on every harpy, then the queen would be sour about it. But I don''t think you two should go getting in to fights so easily. Although, doesn''t that mean Ste is very powerful?"


    "Nope, not really at all. Ste just has a huge amount of battle experience. We have been exploring since we were little, remember? The harpy queen sits in a nest and is protected. She had power but not the ability to use it. That''s another reason the harpies aren''t a race yet. And no, Ste doesn''t want to be queen. She''s not old enough for that kind of thing. I think she has a few secrets though." Elise gave a sideways nce at Ste who was hiding behind her wings.


    "I can always use my all around appraisal skill and check things out?" Walker wanted to join in on the fin but saw that Elise rushed over and stood between them. "Or I won''t do that at all because it would be invading Ste''s privacy." He backed down very fast and earned a relieved look from Ste. Walker couldn''t help himself though. He used his appraisal skill just to see what might be going on that Ste would hide from Elise, her closest family.
