Natural Builders (2)

As the group took rest, Lucius thought of some way to bring about the question of this morphing technique.

They had claimed that they were capable of doing this simply because they had consumed the shri'killian, meaning that if they could teach it to him he might be able to speed up the rate of development manyfold. Not to mention the battle accessory it seemed to promise as well.

"So, this building technique you guys are using, who taught it to you?" he asked after some time had passed.

"Those before us," one of the chieftains replied.

"Hmm, so it is a tradition passed down from chieftain to chieftain then?" Lucius asked, faining interest in the little creatures' traditions.

"You are right in that line of thinking, Lighted One," the chieftain replied awkwardly.

"Interesting..." Lucius said, and once again silence fell upon the group.
