Master Of None

”So, you called us here to discuss the ruins?” The rest of Walker’s day had been full of conversations about potions and showing Trish, Remey, and the old master alchemist to the archives. They had not been able to learn anything yet and felt that they would need a lot of help to get through everything. It was a trial they were willing to spend the time on so that they could harness the mana eyes potion in any tier possible. It would change the way that mages and rune based systems would operate. 

”Yes, the tower is a little more complicated than I believed. There is a consciousness ingrained in the runes somehow. I don’t know how it was done and I doubt I will find out anytime soon. However, there is a need for a tower mage to be established as the master of the tower. We just need someone that meets the tower requirements. But that’s not all, we also need to research and get people up to the towers’ standards. They are archived with knowledge that we need to translate, especially after we understand what the runes do.”

There was enough information here for the representatives to know that the tower would continue to give them leads. There was a lot that the runes could influence in the city along with how many advancements could come from each pone. Not only would the mages that came there find ways to grow but also every system user that needed runes. What really shocked them though was the fact that runes could be written in the air without a proper material. Not many systems allowed this and being able to do so would change the way of life for everyone. 

”I have heard that there are battle rune smiths with the skills to write runes in the air. I have even heard of them writing runes that will cast a firebolt skill if they can properly learn and practice the rune. From what I have learned, that is a very tough feat to achieve. Yet if they are able to then they will have profound understanding of fire related runes.” The forest elf queen was sharing this information from a long time ago. She had read such things in her libraries about system users. 

”I have read the same texts. Such systems were popular many years ago and some of our oldest writings speak of them being able to clear large portions of lands for farming if they were paid properly. I believe they were the largest recorded sale of earth crystals from our city ever.”

 King Rorick recalled seeing a mural about this and reading the related texts as a child. He had trouble believing this was true but did not doubt their history. 

”That’s good to know. I would greatly appreciate seeing such a system user born in Genesis. They would be the key to us understanding this tower faster. I think we should allow access to those who have yet to awaken their systems. There could be hidden diamonds.” King August felt it was important to put a focus on such systems. 

”I agree, but there is more. There are elemental floors in the tower. They are for training certain elemental skills and crafts. They are full of the singular elemental mana and books about them. I would say that just taking people through those floors could awaken many potential systems. They even use runes to protect you when you walk through them so it could awaken systems we don’t expect.” Another shocking piece of information landed on the representatives. They couldn’t seem to keep up with everything happening at the moment. 

”That’s it. I want my runesmiths in the tower by the end of the day. The elves need to come as well. We need people to understand those archives. I will let the elemental floors be taken by the elf mages for now. They need to understand the benefits of these floors and report back on potential progress. I also want there to be a material investigation. I have no idea how the tower was made mixing the rarest materials and so many of them in such a perfect way. We need more knowledge.” The king of the deep caves was ready to lead the charge in right that second. 

”I agree. The sooner we begin the better. I will gladly help regulate the flow of people with my position and enforcers.” Alma wanted to take the reins of this project. She was sure that she would be able to keep the tower safe and properly studied. 

”I have nothing against this. I believe that the alchemy guild can also join in and research. If we manage to crack the mana eyes potion formula then we will just speed up the knowledge gathering.” Remey chimed in as well and it appeared that the team was set. 

”Then Alma will take the lead, the king of the deep will begin his analysis, and The alchemy guild will start on the potions and related materials left behind.” Walker summed it up and everyone raised a hand in agreement. 

”I have to say, I came a little late but I think that sounds perfect.” Leon strolled in to the room smiling while he placed his spear on the table. ”I, Leon of the merfolk race, pledge my spear to be loyal to Genesis and the growth it shall achieve every day. Please accept me as your representative for my race.” 

His pledge was something no one expected but brought them now. Every single representative and leader stood up and welcomed him. ”It’s good to see you. I’m surprised you turned down the king of the merfolk position to come here.” Walker had thought Leon would be the next king. 

”Ha! My father has said he won’t step down for another thirty years, So, I came here. I also can’t let all of you get ahead of me. I just had a feeling that this is the right move.” There were smiles all around hearing this. The merfolk had officially joined Genesis.
