"So you already have an army of golems marching from the dwarven city? How did you do that so fast?" Walker was a little amazed to hear this from the king of the deep caves.


    "How? You think that we are just tinkerers? We havemunication crystals inside our golems. Once I sent one to send this message they got close enough to send a massive notice to my fellow kings. We wouldn''t let a nest of these bugs get away. There are valuable ores and knowledge down there for us to use!" While Walker wanted it to be a little about the safety of the people that would travel through the fieldnds, he also knew that a dwarf would follow who they were. To tell them not to focus on the mining, forging, and any other potentials of crafting that might be hidden in the ruins and caves would be foolish.


    "Are…well…will you even need us?" Walker wasn''t sure what there would be for him to do. He felt that the sheer strength of the dwarven golems would be more than enough to eradicate these giant earth ants.


    "Of course you wille. I want you to drag those adventurers sitting around doing nothing. They all say they gave knowledge and guidance to the younger ones and are using it to bezy. They are barely even taking jobs to join the patrols of the caves and tunnel beneath Genesis right now!" To say that the king of the deep caves was unhappy with the veteran adventurers was an understatement. He had yelled at a decent few since they had beenckadaisical instead of focused. They were ignoring their current quests for thepetition and change to get credit for guiding the younger generation.


    "I didn''t foresee this as an issue. I will deal with it. You can trust me in that. Anything else?" Walker felt that he and Su might end up with additional jobs asking this question.


    "Just get that done. We are leaving in five days. Prepare to go back if you want toe. I could use wildcards like you to scare out the queen. When things get messy it will try to escape with the elite guardians that it raised. I want toe right to the surface and face my brethren before I mine out the gemstones it has eaten." There was viciousness in the king of the deep caves'' voice. Walker and Su took that as a reason to leave. They didn''t see Remey around and realized that she must have gone to start preparing potions. It was certain that the alchemy guild would be making plenty of them for a battle of any size.


    "I will go and talk to the guild with Gil and Midnight. You should go and check on Alice and Onyx. This is a big deal. We will be along when we can." Su knew that the worried look in Walker''s eyes was because he feared that Onyx needed help.


    "You know, you can always see right through me. I never want it to change." The two bumped arms before parting. Out of everyone, Su and Walker had be close like brother and sister. They traveled their own paths but were always close to the same page on how to go about their jobs in the party. They both cared for others and would put their best foot forward.


    Just as Walker was about to head right for the cathedral he remembered the old man making the magical scrolls. He had said that he would be able to copy them and make many but Walker had not fully understood how since he knew that the scrolls usually had to be made using the skill users'' mana. But this was something he needed to get for Alice and the heavenly serpent. He would need to stop by the mage tower area first and make sure everything had gone well.


    The city was understandably busy. Many people had heard the news and the dwarves had all ceased their projects. Since the monsters were a little far most people didn''t seem too stressed. However, there were many groups that were preparing for the worst. It was just a wise decision. Seeing the tamer''s guild moving through Genesis was interesting. Walker heard whispers and side conversations about giant earth ant meat as being a very good food for carnivorous monsters. That was something Walker had never known but made sense. There would be many ants and if the tamer''s guild joined the battle they would have a solid food source for every branch of their guild.


    Luckily, the mage tower seemed to be the same busy it was before. Many people were copying and trying to understand runes. That made it easier for Walker to move through and toward the back training ground where the old man was working. No one was free enough to stop him to chat. "I can''t say I have been gone long, but you seem to have settled in for someone that travels around."


    Walker looked at the tent andrge table set up to make the magical skill scrolls. "How else do you expect me to make these? I have the original scrolls for you and the copies. Already worth it, hmm?" The look of pride was enough for Walker to understand the depth of skill and work that goes in to each scroll. "Now, you have a few things you will need to know about these copies. They aren''t the same as the originals." Walker had expected this but he had not asked the questions then. He had relied on the skills to show themselves so that he could take the scrolls as needed. Now he would learn about them and what limitations they would have for when he began to give them away.
