Awakening Chronicles

Chapter 13

"I'm afraid so, my lord. You may wish to intervene if you want to end the bloodshed before it gets worse." I traced my finger over the water mindlessly before the next wave crashed over my hand.

"Hmm. I'm afraid for the time being; I'm going to have to put it on the back burner. I need to put a priority the Humans, Dark Elves, Ancient Ones, and eventually, the Nazghôuls when I come across them."

Helios nodded his head, "That would be for the best. We can't focus on just two races at the moment. We need to get the others on the ground first and then eventually get the organic assimilator module."I tore my focus from the ocean and faced Helios.

"Why do you recommend that?" I asked him quietly as I started to try and plan out my next few steps.

"Well, Angels and Demons have a very strict social caste. The more wings they have, the higher the position of authority they can achieve." He flapped his seven wings and brought them close to himself, showing them off. "and because I'm currently the only one with this many wings, all of the Angels see me as their king." I only nodded quietly and listened to him speak, while tracing patterns in the ocean water. "So if we wait till we have the module, We could craft a body that would better suit our agenda."

I stretched my arms out and thought over everything he just told me for a short time. "Okay, so head back, try and contain the feuding for now, and ill be over there as soon I can." Helios nodded his head and vanished, leaving me alone again on the beach. I leaned back on my hands and stared at out across the endless sea before I noticed a blinking notification on my HUD. I opened it, and a new notification appeared on my screen.

Congratulations. You decided to descend from your control room and personally taught one of your species, the first step of agriculture. You have unlocked a milestone and a personal achievement.

First step in the right direction- A species has learned the basic form of agriculture. +10 Creation points.

Guiding hand- You have personally taught a species a vital part of building a civilization. +30 Creation points

I quickly dismissed the notifications and brought up my creation menu and searched through it for the naming function. This specific tool was something that I've meant to use once I had enough creation points saved up. Once I found it, I clicked on it and brought up the description.

The naming function allows the user to name essential landmarks and place the faintest traces of emotion in them. The name is then known to all species that are born and currently exist on the planet. Races that visit will also be affected. Cost: 15 Points

Note: Can not be used to impart knowledge; this is merely for cosmetic use.

Please select the landmark you wish to name...

A three-dimensional copy of Ouradia appeared, and I selected the rings that hung across the planet and slowly typed the name.

A pulse then shot out across the Ouradia. This pulse consisted of golden energy that crackled like lightning and shot across the surface of Ouradia and originated from the rings themselves. It crashed over the of hundreds of thousands of living beings, and a name was then forever imprinted into their memories, Kairo's Lament. It was a name that stood as a monument to the sins of its creator and as an eternal reminder of what it took to create the ring that now circled the planet.

I watched the energy dissipate, and I sat back on my arms and watched as the water slowly rose over my legs. Now, what was next on the to-do list? I decided that I was going to push back, visiting the angels and the demons until I get the module that I needed. I wanted to end the whatever feud they had as quickly as possible. So that left the Humans, the Dark Elves, and the Ancient Ones. I pondered the thoughts for a moment before a soft voice tore me from my thoughts.
