Master Of None

"I believe that because my party has taken such close relationships with them that the elemental spirits have more than lived up to their own beliefs but allowed our beliefs in their hearts as well. They were never the kind of beings that liked murder and war. Your ancestors had some dormant ones hidden away. That proved that they were even hunted during wars or when the world was all fighting."

Walker pushed this theory home while speaking about the ancient times and theories they had. Also the elemental spirits found in the ruins. "But they are part of nature. War shouldn't be a natural part of war. No matter how fighting is enjoyed, war should not be. The demi-humans know this well and channel their battle prowess in to arenas that bring their people together instead of tear them apart with war." Walker made sure to incorporate examples here and there as he finished his thought.

"You are very against war, yet you have not witnessed the length of wars that our people have fought. That have forced us to alter our ways." The Rize empire archangel made sure to point this out. He was certain that these younger people were too foolish to see the length of war.

"According to the elven history, War forces us against our core values. Being one with elemental mana and forcing us to fight one another. Our own race was forced apart by the simplest of differences, elemental affinity. Now we are so different that our ancient bloodline is too thin. We have to unite yet again to properly reclaim the high elf heritage." Alma spoke with authority and steel the same way that the elven queen had spoken when the party met her.

"If you have a hard time believing them, then you can ask about the fact that the dark elves and the earth elves nearly killed off each other while fighting in the underground. Or the sand elves that once inhabited an ancient angel city before they faced a Sin title holder in battle. Now that Sin title holder may be cleansed, but the past that forced them to that ruin is still there." Gil finished Alma's point causing the two arch angels to realize that these weren't just foolish children in front of them.

"And don't forget the dwarves. They split themselves in to sections. One such section being an entire king and force set up to keep their overworld patrolled. So much so that they developed golems to fight for them and protect them. So they didn't have to worry about their enemies so much anymore since they lacked the mages to defend against certain races. In doing so, they gained knowledge of runes, forging, and other things." Remey's addition just made it even clearer.

"And what if we sign agreements not to fight amongst each other? You have no basis here on our lands. You have no way to stop our floating cities. No way to cease our battles completely." The Fel empire archangel wasn't challenging them, but instead was making sure that these unknown beings that had come across the ocean had more than just sweet words.

"You don't think that the hero title is worth much? What about the sage title? Or literally any title that united us with both monsters and other races? What about our newest titles that everyone who got here on our ships received? The ocean pioneer. A title that helps us make our way through the ocean safely more often. Which means only one of the many soldiers or our need to be on a ship for us to make better and safer calls to bring even more people here." Walker left that as it was. He had not shared the new title. However, he knew now was the best chance to use it. Especially since no one had a talk about it just yet.

'Ocean pioneer

The title given to those that have been the first in many years to travel by ship through large and small dangers. Those that have pioneered a new form of travel to get to a new place. To discover and create brand new experiences in their age. Those with this title have a natural instinct that allows them safer travel when on the ocean. They will also have a higher chance of learning related skills while on the ocean along with protecting them if all else goes wrong to a degree while on the ocean.'

This was a simple description but a title was a title. It could not be underestimated. Even the smallest title could push someone to do great things. Take the friend of goblins title. It was one that showed every goblin that the party was friendly, even before they were a proper race. It also showed the world that they were closely related with the goblins and would clearly not hesitate to assist them. It was both defensive and deterring.

The mention of titles seemed to be enough. Both The arch angels didn't ponder anything more. "We are at an important portion of our empire's history. Peace has been here for some time. The redevelopment of villages on the borders is here for both of us." The Rize empire representative seemed to have finally accepted what they were here to speak about. 𝘧𝘳𝐞𝚎𝑤ℯ𝘣𝗻𝘰ѵℯl.c𝐨𝚖

"That being the case, we still have animosity, however, if you share what you know of our ancient counterparts, we may learn why we became the way we are. We also may solve issues we have now." The Fel empire arch angel also started to show a bit more of his own emotion. It seemed that the two had been hardened by years of fighting, but actually had softer hearts than they let anyone see. Not that they showed it all completely.

"To speak about the wyverns…" The Rize empire archangel paused and then continued, this was his way of accepting that they played a part in causing the wyverns to fly across the ocean. "We went to the mountains to gain materials for armors and other such efforts. We were rewarded by finding massive nests and ancient structures which housed the wyverns. Our soldiers attempted to take one and instead killed the youngest wyverns under the wyvern queen. Instead of fleeing, she used intelligence to force wyverns together. They are less mad now."

And to speak about our deserts…" The Fel empire archangel spoke not hiding it either. " one of our space mages started to learn about elemental plains. They brought out a jinn or what some would call a genie. Their elemental power caused them to call up a storm of sand that disturbed ruins long buried. The number of undead creatures there is higher than we imagined. Especially from an unknown race possessing dragon blood in its veins even now that they are dried up corpses. The mummies and rulers, they are undead with magic and more."

Hearing that the archangels had finally given them some ground made everyone relax. However, knowing these problems brought a whole new aspect of issues. These were the problems that the two empires faced that forced them to stop their war. So much so that they were stuck.

"If they use magic they have to be intelligent undead?" Walker had a bad feeling. One that made him think of the previous undead he had met so far in his life.

"Yes. The same as we have heard of the wyverns. There is intelligence but also a great deal of madness. I doubt they could ever defeat their natural urge to fight the living unless great changes occur. But they attack anything within the desert come the night. The ruins are buried in sand unless they use magic either." The Fel empire was basically divided. That was the conclusion that Walker reached.

"So the wars stopped because both of your empires are effectively cut off from your other halves. That means you have people suffering. We'll have to fix that." Walker didn't even bat an eye at this. He just decided right out that they would also aim to help people while they could.

"We expect you to help find our escaped criminal. Beware of slimes need to cause poison and corrosion. There are also lord slimes that are much more powerful. I fear what the slime breeder subordinate could create now that they have access to more information on the Fel empire's ulterior mana and affinities." Sharing this was important for all of them. "We have reports on what we know of them along with sketches of them. They should help hunt them down safely. I just hope the three are not taking power somewhere."

Knowing that there was a lot of risks here, the three finally got down to properly filling out contracts for their alliance. Assistance with issues would come sooner than later but trade and other things could be slowly worked out over time. Now that the mental and emotional block was gone the angels and Genesis could look at moving forward.
