Since the royal dragons had been focused on the wyverns, they had not considered the other monsters that might be able to cause them issues. While Ignus had his dragonkin handle the skinwalkers, they had seen the potential for those monsters to cause them massive issues.
It wasn't that the dragonkin wouldn't be able to defeat such monsters. As everyone had seen, Ignus's fire affinity dragonkin had easily beaten them with enough strength to spare so that they could show off a little. But if one of the dragonkin was attacked while alone and weakened, then it might be a different story.
"I believe we will be learning a lot about the territory and how our ancient predecessors used to live." Rise was looking at the ashes while she sat and enjoyed some food that Walker had brought along. She was the only one eating but it seemed to make everyone more relaxed since Rise was the strictest dragon out of all of them.
"The more that we can learn here the better. If we can find how the last dragons spent their time here we may be able to find what they had done in their last days. We may also find the elder's dwellings." Current had been wondering what might have happened to the elder's dwellings that would be in the royal dragon hall of the Sigil continent.
It wasn't like the dragons had just thought one day to make a royal dragon hall. It was the first known territory to them. The first dragon village. But over time the dragons had split up and taken different lands. That made their first ever territory a very important place to them. It was why the eldest dragon would become their elder and keep the records of their history. It was how a royal dragon hall was created.
"When we manage to find the royal dragon hall of this continent we will need to see about gathering the memories there." The same method that the dragons currently used was something that Terron had a hand in. He knew the value of the crystals they used to build the cave and help the elder keep records.
They were similar to the mana crystals used to communicate from person to person but these were rarer. They were found by him and all brought to the royal dragon hall. The way they worked was a closely guarded secret by every elder but it was something that was sure to be shared as the dragons got closer to the other races. Especially since the elves appeared to take very detailed records of everything they could.
"Have you noticed that this continent is less explored? There may be fewer angels than they are letting us think." Ventus came with a very interesting theory while she stood with the others. Their conversation wasn't being listened in on at all since they were terrifying figures. But that also meant that they had the ability to porpoise such thoughts without any issues.
"I thought that too." Mordant had thought this for some time because the angels were able to get certain authorities so quickly. "They have been at war with one another for some time. They can not manage to keep up. They also don't have many villages with proper protection. I assume they have everyone and everything on their floating sky cities they told us about."
This seemed to be the collective consensus by the time that they were all reminded that they could take the time to meditate a little more. But they did all hear Ignus mumble about how it didn't matter how many there were. That the wyverns were the real problem they needed to handle. But that was a fair point.
Meanwhile, Walker was able to find Alice and Su. They were having basic conversations sharing their healing methods. The only one that was not speaking much was the crystal healer. The very person that Walker had wanted to speak with to understand a little more about the ulterior healing methods that might be appearing the more that he researched the Sigil continent.
"How are things with you? I know that healers won't have too much to do since the dragonkin are very tough and these monsters are nothing to them." Walker laughed a little since he could see that the healers were still very surprised and impressed by the dragonkin.
"We have been sharing techniques. The healers from the Fel empire do not focus on musical systems due to their research oriented society. They rarely have musical systems in general so they are very curious about Alice." Su had been carefully paying attention to what questions were asked. She could tell that they were prying a little to learn more about Genesis.
"I kind of expected that. But what about the life mages and that crystal healer? Learn anything?" Walker figured he would speak with the crystal healer in a moment but he wanted to feel out what Su thought.
"The life mages are odd. They research how bodies work but also want to understand the source of a body's mana. But the crystal mage barely speaks. I assume because the way he heals is so different and relies on multiple things rather than just one aspect of mana." Su had a decent grasp of it so all Walker had to do was look in to it a little more.
With Su's information, Walker approached the crystal healer and looked at him. " so you're the crystal healer? Care to tell me how it works? We don't have crystal healers in Genesis so any information is new."
The healer seemed to brighten up greatly. He had been more or less silent so far. Now she could finally join the conversation and speak about what he had found.
"It's all based on affinity. The mana that everyone can use changes person to person. That's fine, our body produces mana that is tilted to one side or the other. I was lucky to be born with mana that favors earth which helps me use crystals overall." The crystal healer was getting more energetic with every single word. The attitude was a bit infectious.
"From there I can take the mana and use it to push the body to heal. Your affinity is part of everything in your body. To use your own mana and that affinity together your entire being is needed. So why wouldn't your body respond when the mana returns the flow."
"Instead of losing your body's mana, I can give you elemental mana that spurs the body to heal and repair itself. It's temporary because it's not really your mana and will fade, but it removes fatigue from you due to lack of mana due to an injury or other reason. It can even be used to stop someone from going unconscious from lack of mana when they use too much!"
This was all very informative. The crystal healer was full of blossoming energy now that he had been focused on. It was as if he was presenting a hard thought plan to a battle council. There was clearly a lot of time spent to understand even this.
"So when you use an elemental mana crystal, you are channeling the mana within to allow it to flow safely to the body. The crystal won't crack and the mana won't be able to harm someone. All you need to know is their affinity."
"Yes! That's it and I can do that by using my affinity appraisal skill. It's not amazing but I can see a person's affinity." This was another thing that the crystal healer seemed even more pride in sharing.
"And my affinity is?" Walker knew it was a little rude to tease the crystal healer but he wanted to have a little fun.
"I can look at that easily…" the crystal healer's no eyebrows furrowed as he looked at Walker harder and harder. "You have…well, it's most elemental manas. But there are other things. I'm not really sure if you even have an affinity since everything is so mixed up. I might be too weak to see it."
The crystal healer was looking at Walker with a very downtrodden expression. "Sorry, I expected that. I can learn just about any skill of any affinity with my system. It's hard to explain easily but my affinity changes. I also have natural mana which will complicate it even more." The crystal mage relaxed but had a steel gaze caught on Walker. He was extremely curious now.
"Gil can channel mana from elemental crystals too. But he learned from the elves who make arrows from them. You two should check your techniques against one another. It could help smooth things out in the processes you use." Walker tried to push aside the curious looks the mages, healers, and crystal healer had on him but it didn't seem to work well enough.
