"I an, she asked for help and then dragged here before I could answer. That should give you an idea of what kind of person Tallia is. She normally isn't this bad, but I can sort of see why she might be upset. Still, she is taking this a bit far, considering what is going on."
"Who are you again? Sorry, we haven't been introduced," I asked as a massive cannon began to take shape.
"Wow, soone that doesn't know my golden locks? Now, this is very rare! I guess I can be the one to introduce myself since none of my attendants are here to do so!" The Dwarf said dramatically. "I am Goldy, golden Goddess of the Dwarfs! Now you have a na to pray to when Tallia cos to take your skin!"
"Good lord, are all you Goddesses the sa?!" I asked as I turned to see my cannon had finished forming.
I got up and turned around to find Tallia with crossed arms and glaring at .
"What have I forgotten?!" Tallia demanded.
"Not important right now, rember? Can you stop trying to fight for a mont? I need you to make a massive golem and make it sturdy," I explained.
"Why?"
"So I can blow it up, or at least try to."
"That seems like a waste of my energy."
"Ugh, take over there then!" I growled, pointing south, and Tallia grinned at .
"Pardon?" Tallia asked, putting her fists to her hips, making my eye twitch.
Keep your shit together, Galio, this is Tallia, and you love her. She did this for , so I just have to be patient with her for now.
"Please, my Goddess, will you take over so I can do this thing," I asked, holding back a sigh.
"If that is what you need, I think I can bless you with my services!" Tallia said, turning up her nose at and waving her hand.
I turned around to find a portal, but it was facing the ground. Before I could react, a foot planted on my lower back pushed through.
Gravity turned, and I was dropped five feet with a thud on the ground.
"You can fly back," Tallia said, and the portal closed.
[Wow, I really wonder how you two t in the first place? You two don't really seem like a good match.] Xieus said, and I groaned.
'I am wondering the sa thing, but this isn't the woman that has been with . This is the one that I first t, and I sohow fell in love with her. She is just an onion with many layers,' I replied, picking myself off the ground, gathering in magic.
[You know, the worst part of an onion is at the center? Maybe she had five hundred lifetis of slowly getting timider to the one that you knew before today?] Xieus asked.
'Don't say unhelpful things like that. Tallia will get better with ti, and I need her help, but I might need Goldey's help as well. Maybe that is her problem! Ha! I bet Tallia is feeling inadequate, not being able to do anything to help!' I declared.
[Sure, you should go tell her that!] Xieus laughed as I pressed my hands to the ground.
A massive brown spell ring ford, and rocks started to pull together and get taller. Slowly, the body of a fifty-foot stone golem ford, and I started to fortify it as more rings appeared.
'I think I have said enough for today, and I will just let her be. It's lunchti, and I promised that I would be ho for lunch!' I replied as I sucked in a bunch more magic to cast a regeneration spell on the golem.
[You think you have ti for that with this summoning circle here?!] Xieus exclaid, and I nodded, wings bursting from my back.
'Always. As long as this cannon does what I want, it is a matter of getting the material. We have three days, and I need to check on Morgana. Finding out who is controlling her is important, or they will be a trap waiting to spring,' I sent back to Xieus, and a gust of wind shot into the air.
I turned my head back as I flew back to the wall that was about three miles away. The golem was in more than effective range, and tomorrow I would set one up at the site of the summoning circle.
That was ten miles away, pushing the limits of the firing range. We had the advantage with the hundred and the fifty-foot wall they would be mounted on, but this was what testing was for.
When I got back up to the wall, Tallia and Goldy were gone, leaving Listenia, Breya, and the Red Dragon, Cherry. She was now in a humanoid form, but she was really short and cute with little wings on her back and a red tail.
"The Goddesses left and said they would be back here in three days," Breya explained after I landed.
"Well, that is for better or worse; I am not really sure at this point. At least we won't be butting heads," I said and turned to Listenia. "How much more can you get in the next three days?"
"If that pile is enough for one, then we can almost line the wall, but Cherry can't carry it. This was already a hard load for her," Listenia said, and the Dragon grill looked down.
"Sorry, that was just too heavy for ," Cherry said, and I nodded.
"Not a problem. The won that were watching the wall were going to need sothing to do. They can get a transportation line set up; we just need to get the stuff here. Also, if you know anyone that can do Fire Magic, we will need them to shoot the guns," I explained, and Listenia nodded.
"I will get on that as soon as I get back," Listenia said, coming over to give a kiss before turning to the Dragon Girl. "Cherry, can you give a ride back?"
Cherry nodded and stepped back as her body expanded and covered in scales. Once she was an eighteen-foot-tall Red Dragon, Listenia climbed on top, and Cherry took off.
