The wave round 2 part 1

The waves had been happening every 10 years, but it was at its worse every 100 years, and that is when Jack or his race would get a skill if they survived.

"I always forget to keep track of these things, but im sure we're prepared for it"-Jack

"Isn't that called a jinxing Jack?"-Nyx

"No, what no..forget what I said"-Jack

"Don't worry, Jack, our race is ready for anything that comes its way, be it from the sky,sea, or land"-Nyx

"True and it will be a good test for Heliosad his group will get some much need battle experience and new resources"-Jack

"Yep, all those different horns and claws along with the different scales and skins perfect for weapons and clothes"-Nyx

"Indeed Nyx one aspect quite overlooked by the waves is the resources that are brought by it, but I guess the mayhem cancels it out in the end"-Themis

"Woah, why must you sneak up on me, brother!"-Nyx

"Beacuse the god of war shouldn't be able to be sneaked upon your getting lazy Nyx maybe too comfortable"-Themis

"What would you know about work? All you do is watch in the corner of the world with that permanent blank face on you"-Nyx

"Hey guys, no need for this type of heat today. Okay, you both do your jobs well and are respected and needed for us to win the game now. Leave it at that"-Jack

"Understood Jack"-Themis

"Yes sir"-Nyx

It was quite a sight to see Jack an under 6ft human telling off these over 7ft or in Nyx's case 8ft tall powerful rixis gods. Both of whom had their own bright and flashy looks compared to normal old Jack.

Going back to the wave, all clans,families, and tribes had prepared for what was to come and would do their best to survive. This time, if they survived, they would earn a skill for their creator Jack and, in return, would earn a skill for both themselves and the other races that would come with them.

Sadly, the blues wouldn't get this, but Jack could buy skills for the blues and the rixis to help them.

Now once more, the monsters and animals had lost their sanity and reason only wanting blood to sate their sudden desires. Luckily, the candidate races, along with other forces, were now used to this event and had taken much more time to prepare than in previous years.

The first affected would be the border tribes who were at the forefront of exploration and discovery. So, doing the smart thing, they temporarily abandoned their homes and fell back to neighbouring tribes. They also left some traps for any curious beasts who wanted to sniff around their homes.

As for the places they fell back to, they were now heavily fortified to the best of their abilities and knowledge. With one particular tribe having some new innovations when it comes to defence. This tribe was near the border of the winter forest but not too close as the tribe that was abandoned. This is where Heliosad came with his merry band of tribal allies, having been away from his tribe now for many seasons he had learned much just from his short journey here.

His first new invention was to use animal hide over the fibre straps and strings to give them more stability and protection. He also uses long straps of leather to hold the wood and rocks together while also having some of the walls in the ground.

Now, to everyone else, this seemed useless and a waste of materials, but he learned through slashing the heads off of animals that when grounded, they were much more stable. For modern builder and Joe's, this was, of course, foundations, which he hadn't found out yet, but he was getting close.

Another bonus to the rixis, being both warriors and hunters, is that they are more than happy to go on long trips to the front to fight the wave. This is what would start the modern look of waves even far into the future with the border cities or states.

Protecting the inner areas while the inner areas sent soldiers and resources to the front.

Now, this hasn't begun yet, but it would soon cause division between the two groups and would shape their cultures and styles. Now, luckily, this wouldn't be detrimental to the entire race, but that was thanks to the skills Jack chose. Without those, they would end up like many medieval kindgoms constantly squabbling with each other and within.

Now, this would still happen it would just be less devastating and brutal on a macro scale, but on the micro, things would still be bloody.

But for now, they all worked together for the opportunity to protect others while also growing their reputation and prove their strength. In the tribe Heliosad was in there was rixis from all across the land from Sand striders, who you wouldn't notice was there unless they wanted you to. To the Apexian order members who had multiple wooden religious signs and sigils all over her body.

Plus, you couldn't have a large fight without the Crimson guard who stood out in the crowd at the very front. While the Mountain slammers would be great at keeping the defences strong along with many other clans and tribes.

They all got up early in the morning, and only an hour after the roars and rumblings of the monster and beasts began to echo. The ground began to quake, and even some of the younger and less experienced rixis felt a little nervous. Luckily, the elders had their backs.

Across the walls,wooden spikes, and rows of rixis guards came a looming shadow as the sun shown behind them. A large wave of biological and magical mass came surging towards the tribe as the wave swarmed forth and collided with their new prey.
