ARC 3 part 3 The Elementals of Zethros

The transport was horse pulling the large carriage being pulled by 4 horses it was a very large carriage, it can carry a lot of weight Lilith paid mayor to be able to use it.

Jaina looks quite impressed "well that's pretty huge"

Lilith turns and winks " thanks though its Mayors, he was kind enough to let me use it as long as I pay for it"

Daiman looked around and noticed compared to the other buildings this Storage is the oldest building, there are subtle differences btw Storage and rest of the town, it appears the Storage was less reconstructed orders, and strange enough it almost seems as if it was built on top of something.

Daiman "I see so when would you like our help with loading and transporting"

Lilith looks at Daiman "in a few minutes I need to prepare horses first"

Lilith comes in pats the horses while putting leather protection on them, and then after puts chain mail on them.

Lilith turns and smiles " in case of animals attacking, it's better then horses getting infected"

Daiman looks curious "what does the infection do"

Lilith finishes equipping horses "Well we do not have the name for it yet, but we know it affects animals and humans changing the physical traits and behavior, so yes you don't want to get bitten"

Jaina nods "ill keep that in mind"

Lilith points in the at the trap door "all of your stuff is you need is down there "

Daiman goes down there lightning wise it's a lot darker, so he can't see much of a difference that he was looking for meanwhile, he was handing over the boxes to Jaina and Lilith.

It took 15 minutes to load the carriage

Lilith looks at Jaina "were finally done let's get going"

Jaina looks down and grins "alright bro you heard her let's get going "

Daiman climbs up "yeah I know, what about your books though"

Lilith waves with Package in her hands "don't worry the books are with me for now"

Lilith, Jaina, and Daiman sit in the front carriage, Daiman was sitting on the left side while Lilith was in controlling the horses, and Jaina on the left side.

30 minutes later they just left the forest.

Daiman looks up bored in the sky and thinks to himself " This reminds me off home a little bit, I get why dad said back then transporting is boring and that I wouldn't like it"

Back when Daiman was a kid he walked off in the garden, he noticed a Middle-aged suited up man with Large Carriage near the entrance talking with Mr. Brown.

Mr. Brown smiles "that would be all thank you"

Man looks Brown in the Eyes "don't be late with Payment again boss won't tolerate it"

Mr. Brown "I am aware of it, don't worry this time I will make sure everything goes smoothly"

Daiman back in the carriage "come to think of it, what was that all about he usually pays off all of his bills right in time, it's weird that he would be late often, especially considering how strict city is when it comes to paying bills"

Jaina pokes Daiman "hey are you even listening

Daiman looks at Jaina's little annoyed "what is it?"

Jaina points at Lilith

Lilith "go back there and make sure everything stays well tied up"

Daiman looks confused "didn't you make sure to do that"

Lilith "the storm may or may not happen the weather, is getting very windy it's safe than sorry in these conditions"

Daiman sighs "Alright fair enough" and then heads to the back of the carriage

Jaina looks around "weird I thought there would be a lot more animals around here"

Lilith looks Sirius "be careful to do the illness their behaviors out of the ordinary"

Daiman nods "in the case, we should handle them with guns who knows what effects would it have on humans"

Lilith "magic works too but in general yeah "

Jaina sighs and looks sad " I always wanted to know the magic"

Lilith giggles and pats with a warm smile don't worry you will learn it sooner or later"

Lilith looks at Jaina "there's a rumor that there is an old sage on the Main Island, he is supposedly expert on magic also and can deal with elementals himself"

Daiman looks at Lilith surprised " Elementals here, you mean the creatures elementals"

Lilith smiles and looks at Daiman "of course, where did you think all these changes in weather are coming from"

Jaina looks confused "even so, this changes in weather are way too quick for even that to explain it"

The weather is getting much colder, and it looks like its gonna rain soon.

Jaina gets reminded of animal infection "Speaking of things that aren't normal when the did infection start appearing"

Lilith looks up "Mayor said around 3 months ago, as for the weather it has been changing rapidly as long as they can remember"

Lilith then looks suspiciously in the sky however for the last 3 years I came here, it was never this bad"

Jaina "did Mayor and townfolks notice any ships coming to the island"

Lilith "so you think someone intentionally caused this"

Jaina "its certainly most plausible explanation so far, but it also could be related to elementals perhaps we just need to calm them down"

Lilith "we need to learn about them first before we come to conclusions like that, but the main island is very dangerous and besides you should learn more about it first before you go there"

Lilith then smirks and hands over the notebook to Jaina "I compiled the notes from all previous attempts here "

Jaina smiles "ill go show this to bro"

Jaina pokes Daiman

Daiman looks at Jaina "ow what is it, I made sure everything secured was just resting and daydreaming about dad "

Jaina giggles "daydream all you want I got lots of clues from Lilith"

Diaman smiles "Good job dad should have allowed you to get information instead of using his methods"

Jaina smiles confidently and sits down "Thank you for the compliments I do what I can"

Daiman sighs and looks bored "now I see why dad didn't let me help him transport things, it's so boring "

Jaina laughs "yep totally not because you occasionally take goods that were supposed to be transported and played with them"

Daiman looks at Jaina " hey now I was 9 years then and it looked like a toy sword"

Jaina looks down "if yea say so, but honestly, I wonder why he never let us help him and only let Kain only"

Lilith smirked eavesdropping without being noticed "very interesting, so that's where the old fox went, so these are Browns kids "

Daiman sighs "well too late to find out the truth now..."

The weather outside started raining and getting colder.

Jaina pats Daimans back "Well whatever the job was, it single-handedly paid off all the bills, and he was able to buy lots of gifts for us"

Lilith smiles and turns around for a moment "so where are you 2 from"

Jaina smiles and looks at Lilith " former Kallahan city it's destroyed now, unfortunately"

Lilith nods and looks Sirius then turns around "it must be difficult dealing with losing everything"

Daiman smiles "it is, but we can't let past control us"

Lilith nods "with that way of thinking you could potentially be a successful pirate"

Daiman "I sure hope so "

Jaina looks at Diaman "alright then ill head over to Lilith "

Jaina goes over to Lilith and sits next to her"how close are we to the ship"

Lilith focuses on the road "We are pretty close to it"

Jaina smiles "that's great"

Lilith smiles "so your father was an Inn owner?"

Jaina nods "yep and we always got to buy something good, and we even had a big house right next to it"

Lilith thinks to herself "the old fox kept smuggling the taxes were getting insane, Admiral was trying to take over the city, to ensure he stays in power whole life"

Lilith looks at Jaina "if I had a life I would not choose this job"

Jaina giggles "I can imagine we were also a very big family, all of us adopted"

Lilith thinks to herself "so decided to make new family huh, well good to see it worked out well, I wonder did the fact they came forced you to come back into it"

Jaina looks at Lilith who was deep in thoughts "hey we arrived"

Lilith looks at Jaina she seemed a bit surprised "huh, ah alright in that case well get close and stop that case, let's get close and start loading the ship"

Jaina giggles "well seems Daiman wasn't only 1 daydreaming"

Lilith smiles and leans back a little "helps pass the time"

Jaina gets off after horses slowdown "that's true, ill go preparing loading crane and stairs"

Daiman gets off "we had the little project that we decided to work on, too converted crane that carried the small boat into a general use lifting crane"

Lilith smiles and turns to Daiman after she notices ship doesn't have sails "interesting also I see this ship runs on alchemy, very impressive that you managed to get your hand on these"

Daiman smiles and scratches his head "that would take much longer time to explain than we have time right now, unfortunately"

Lilith walks over to the back of the carriage and opens it up "in that case lets finish loading up the ship with supplies"

Jaina prepared the Crane it seemed bit sloppily put together, but overall it worked just fine, Lilith could already see where they could have made improvements to secure it even better.

Lilith and Daiman carried easier ones and pulled larger heavier boxes next to ships so that they could attach it to the crane, the loading took 50 minutes"

Jaina gets off crane and checks around the crane "that held up better than I thought it would, we can't leave it like that thought"

Daiman shouts and looks up " were coming on board"

Jaina picked up the remote looking device and pulled out, it had 4 buttons on it each activating a different thing on a ship, They found 2 of them Jaina assumed 1 is for captain and 2nd is for whoever is second in command on the ship.

After Jaina clicks the button and points to the ladders which can set up both manually and through activating through remote, as an extra layer of security people can put their own locks on the remote which have a customizable way to unlock them, and a little bit of fire and alchemy used to trigger the spell which scans if the person is allowed to hold the Remote.

Lilith noticed the remote "pretty interesting device"

Jaina sighs "yeah but I don't like it, it's convenient yes but it also seems rather risky "

Lilith smirks "well it's an experimental ship filled with new technology, there's bound to be few weird ideas"

Lilith looks around the ship on the upper deck part "good ship however it does not seem created for combet"

Daiman smiles "well it gets more interesting with 1 more weird idea they decided to put in"

Jaina smirks "it is very well constructed it supposedly can handle any kind of weather, so figured these islands are the right place to test its limits"

Jaina goes past Daiman "however it the weather can still cause some damage"

Jaina Daiman and Lilith began carrying boxes to the stockroom downstairs, Lilith noticed how enclosed and claustrophobic the design is, however, Daiman and Jaina did draw some random drawing to make it feel more welcoming.

Lilith smiles after they finished carrying boxes and walked around "I see you did some redecorating inside"

Lilith has walked around and the house and has drawings bad drawings of people, she also noticed the patent on the ship on one of the tables as well room for cooking and the empty room which is likely gonna be where Daiman and Jaina are gonna use to store tools and Alchemy sets"

Lilith looks at Daiman "looks like everything is set"

Daiman nods "thanks for helping us transport this"

Lilith winks "your Wellcome, perhaps if you manage to solve this problem we could work together"

Jaina looks curious "in what way"

Lilith goes upstairs with them "well talk about it later"

Lilith then pushes the ladders down and climbs down Jaina pulls them back up after "After all let's see what you can do first"

Jaina smiles and nods

Daiman turns around "in that case I guess we better get going, Jaina prepare everything downstairs ill turn this ship around towards the nearest Island"

Jaina looks at Daiman "on it" then runs downstairs to prepare equipment

The nearest island was 30 minutes away
