Kyros and company had eventually seen the massive army that marched to oppose them. But unlike before, where the beasts were gathering at one point, the Brimstone Beasts were scattered and only marched west.
Instead of facing the entire army of Brimstone, Kyros and the group drew their aggression by flying over nurous regions and began to attack a few.
Kyros used his nurous Sword of Light to stab out at the ground. chiel and Lea worked together and shot daggers of water that were causing the enemies to explode out on their chests as another dagger would penetrate the core and do further damage. The harnessing of water had increased, and the two could weaponize water and grant it a harder form. Slowly, the two were becoming Ice mages even without a Core. They used the Plant Core that could draw and gather water to make these attacks.
Listrel used her power to zoom down and slash a few monsters, and the mirror armor that she made allowed her to create a bright light. The power of her mirror mail had now taken root and used the power of the leaf in her soul. So the faintest form of light that ca out of the Brimstone could be reflected and harnessed.
Even as the darkness of the night had fallen, Listrel could shine like a mini sun right in the middle.
But during the battle, Listrel and Lea would often experint with their attack to create a known form of attack.
With each of them making their attacks, the scattered forces of the Brimstone gathered to attack the flashy four, who now found a cliff within the desert and waited at the top.
From afar, the brimstone beasts were rushing towards the cliff where the four decided to make their stand.
"How was the progress?" Kyros asked when they gathered together again.
As he dismissed the group, Kyros challenged Listrel to try and harness the elent of Earth but combine it with light. Brimstone was the form of Earth and Purging Holy Light which was already like fire, but Kyros wanted Listrel to create Holy Earth. The sa power that zal could create.
As for Lea, Kyros told her to use Darkness and try to create Water magic. Not wield the water that the darkness had, but sohow give birth to it!
It was a strange order, but seeing as Kyros was smart enough to accomplish everything before him,
"I can't understand the rging of Earth and Light. Both are incompatible elents. One is made of stone, and the other has no form. Yet you want to take the form of Earth and create it like light? No matter what, it's impossible!" Listrel had a very annoyed expression.
Lea had no joy from her training either.
"How can I turn Darkness into water? Darkness is vastly different from water! The Abyss power that I have captures darkness!" Lea exclaid.
"What exactly is this training about?" Listrel asked again.
"It has to do with your heritage. I was confused at first, but I only realized later that it should not have been possible for you two to have created a Soul Seed, or in Listrel's case, a Soul leaf, in your souls! It's just impossible!" Kyros explained.
"What do you an?" Lea asked.
"chiel and I were able to create it because of the innate nature. The Blood Calamity had darkness and was a being that specialized in a unique harnessing of water, which is blood. Her twin souls allowed the sprouting of the seed. In my case, well... I am a freak. But how was it possible for you two to have the sa power? The elves have awakened their ancient form. The power they received reverted them to their Primal Form. They are one with the forest. It's like they have beco trees and plants themselves! But ask any of them... Did they manage to birth a seed or a leaf in their souls?" Kyros challenged.
The pair was silent.
"Then if you and chiel have these Soul Seeds because of your specific form, why do we have them?" Listrel asked.
"Your heritage. I've learned a lot to conclude that the Planeworld, or all Yggdrasil's, were planets or celestial bodies that the goddess Veiyos planted. It's even possible that the Yggdrasils are responsible for birthing all plant life in the entire universe. But, Listrel, you told that the form I assud when I chard and ditated on the World Wood Tree to communicate with Vey was a Dryad. Lea, have you heard of it?"
"No. The more Listrel talked about the Dryad, I knew what she wasn't talking about, those regular tree spirits. She's talking about sothing else. Like a powerful dryad of so sort."
"Correct. Dryads are spirits born from a tree. When a tree is strong enough, it can leave its physical shell and gain sentience and form. That is why dryads never stray far away from the tree where they were born, and felling the tree kills the dryad. The Dryad that Listrel talked about is a dryad of a certain tree. A tree we all know and have seen."
"The Planesworld!" chiel and Lea chorused together.
"Exactly. The fact that Listrel was able to bear a leaf without any roots, seeds, or stem is proof that the leaf can exist without a source because Listrel is the source! That could be the hint to fully awaken the Codes and Corruption you two are born with! In the case of Listrel, as soone from the line of Protos Endoxos, you were among the first ones assigned to take care of this land. The power of the Dryad is not just a myth. It is your heritage!"
"My ancestors... are these Dryads of legend?"
"Yes! This explains why your family bears the greatest ability to wield the light! It's because you are basically trees!"
"She's a tree? I thought her power would be related to the power of light... Her Force power of creating mirrors used Steel and Light after all." chiel added.
"Exactly! The laws of Elental Affinity state that a person has compatibility with the main elent the person is born in. It states that the first two closest elents to the right side or the left side of the Elental Wheel would be elents that this person can master quickly."
"I rember that. The Emberdons told us the Elental wheel was in order. Light, Brimstone, Earth, Steel, Ice, Water, Darkness. After Darkness is Ti/Space, Wind, Entropy, Lightning, and finally, Fire, the elent that leads back to Light."
"That's right. The twelve elents in the Elental Wheel. Now, which would Listrel have to be, as she managed to create Steel and Light to create mirror?"
"Earth!" Listrel and chiel both shouted.
"That is her real affinity. Not Light. But her Code is sothing that combines Earth and Light, which makes her a Dryad!"
"Then combining Earth and Light... Adding life to earth... You were asking to create plants!" Listrel realized the intention.
"Yes. But obviously, in this place, where Brimstone is purging all life and laws, you won't be able to create it right now. Not with all the Brimstone Energy around. That's why I asked you only to rge it!"
"Then the reason that the plants began to bloom again...!"
"Exactly! It's because of the power that you wield! In Fate's strange and unbelievable power, she allowed this to happen with the impossible hope that I would understand the Code that defines plant life! It is the very Code that you have locked within you! As a result, the world will bloom, and your power can save this place! The elves are re plants, and their presence is causing the flowers and leaves to bloom. But the real source of power is actually you! One who has the leaf in her soul! If you perfect this power, you may help the Planesworld regain its ability to create plants once more! But your power could not be complete without another."
"Another? Could it be?" chiel turned to Lea.
"?" Lea was surprised.
