Chapter 50

Huge sedimentary rock could be seen all over the foot of the mountain, the Mesa has a elevation from the highest point of 92 meters and and the lower was 50 meters and was covered by roots of different sizes, and various types of trees surround the foot of the 1500 acres flat land on top of the Mesa, while innumerable diverse farmland and wild animals roam and inhabit the area both on top and bellow the mesa and the air was fresh and uncontaminated because of the different elevations of the land, because some parts it rises sharply above the surrounding area, at least on some parts of the mountain, and because of this new formation of the soil were high enough that the wind coming from the west would push any toxic materials on the landscape and force it away in a different direction,

The unique topography of the Mesa also allows for a diverse range of plant and animal life to thrive, creating a rich ecosystem that supports both agriculture and wildlife conservation efforts. Additionally, the Mesa has been an important cultural site for indigenous communities for centuries, with evidence of human habitation dating back thousands of years.

this area is isolated and unexplored by any researchers due to its relative closeness to the Second zone, and because of the recent events surrounding the location for the past 30 days, most influential rich individuals have been receiving unsavory information that the forbidden land had drastically become more deadly, so sending adventurers will cost more to explore the area.

Furthermore, the local the Royal Capital has issued a warning to all travelers to avoid the area for their own safety, and any attempt to enter will result in legal consequences. Therefore, it is highly advised to postpone any plans of exploration until further notice.

Despite the challenges, some adventurous explorers have expressed their interest in uncovering the secrets of this forbidden land, and are willing to take on the risks and costs associated with it. However, it remains to be seen whether any organization or individual will take up the challenge and venture into this uncharted territory.

and one of the most misleading and discouraging information to many explorers to venture within and face these notorious entities were called blood vines and which are known to be poisonous and feed on any kind of blood, and the Freljord plant that continues to spread paralyzing pollen in the air, and lastly scattered nest of large fire hornets that attack indiscriminately to those who enter their territory.

because the vast land holds many secrets, especially the sacred root, and has been the domain of numerous and unknown beings for thousands of years, some powerful enough to rival a demon lord but stayed away and became recluses,

like the Uruk-kai race, they were branded falsely accused to be avaricious and shameful, and in the end rumours' spread that they abandon and betrayed the nobles who paid them before in waging war against the present Sovereign King, the once feared and honourable race reputation was tarnished because of false information orchestrated by the Noble themselves,

because in reality the Uruk-kai race never intended to join to fight against the current Sovereign King, because they already secretly swore loyalty to the Demiurgo house,

as soon as sharn and her brother reach the foot of the Mesa, they were catching their breath out of exhaustion prepared and started to a signal bonfire to their tribe to see, on the same time Ramiel was nowhere to be seen, many large exposed slabs of tall granite rock that was leaning on the mesa structure, it was sturdy enough to be a considered safe for a resting area, suddenly the wolf cub was carrying Ramiels small leather pouch and place it at Sharns feet, as it went back to wherever Ramiel might be, she picks it up from the dry ground and looked inside it,

" huh! why is there dirt inside his pouch,"

"let me see that sister! ah! this is not just dirt but its Alluvial soil,"

"Alluvial soil? What's that brother?"

"If you have helped my wife, in farming even once, you should have learned, that this type of soil is very fertile and is found near bodies of clean water,"

"master Ramiel might have gotten it at the mesa, but now how can we get up this vertical climb for our safety, we have a lot of wounded, elderly and children in our ranks ."

the Chief eldest son was the first person in the tribe who came earlier, he was the markers and bonfire that they made earlier, he saw the area and was delighted that it was the perfect environment to sustain good and untainted life he told them that he separated and followed to assist them in securing their possible new home before nightfall,

and informs them that the rest of the tribe will soon be here so he asks Sharn about Master Ramiels current whereabouts, sadly they were unable to answer their father, so he just orders them to hunt,

it was nearly high noon again and the food they have could only last them until today, Sharn and his brother went out to hunt a few Dhasiga that was roaming the area, while their father waits for the tribe's arrival,

sharn and her brother used their hunting skill to locate the Dhasiga and were even hoping to catch a few of them be tamed and become the tribe's livestock, they move separately ensuring a higher chance of success as they venture around the Mesa mountain,

Sharn's previous assumption was somewhat correct, when she saw the same numerous large different measurements of solid granite rock that was stacked, leaning and even piercing the mountain wall, thinking it might have been moved by a powerful force like the sacred root.

Sharn was hiding while observing a group of huge Dhasiga Bull, drinking from a water source that seemed coming from the Mesa mountain itself, she was almost lost in thought while admiring the place.

when the sound of rock being crushed could be heard, the Dhasiga felt the impact and was terrified of the noise and just ran away from that area, Sharn got frustrated and wanted to know what was the cause of the disturbance, she went to the east side of the Mesa base and saw Ramiel crushing and hammering the sold rock wall with his mace,

"Exploitation of Knowledge,"

"Mystic Projection barrier,"

"Chain Impact bash."

"Excuse my intrusion master Ramiel. but what are you doing?"

"Oh, this! well, a teacher of mine once told me a story that a primordial dragon made the dunes that is surrounding the forsaken land, so I was thinking I could do the same things,"

"and that is to terraform this rock wall, like an entrance staircase upward within the mesa, and the entrance should be in this direction, facing those huge towering peaks cascading shadows to hide the entrance from any possible enemy,"

"but from what I am doing it's just scaring, the animals away."

"so! I think I need to create something to make my job much easier!"

"ah wait I think I have a spell for this special task, I just need to calculate the right amount of power and angle,"

" ok! I will meditate on it later but as for now we need to get some food in our stomach,"

the tribe finally arrived at the west side of the Mesa and set up their tents near the bonfire, their current number was around 60 but the chief told Ramiel there were more tribes in a similar situation, they were just lucky enough to meet Ramiel in the forest and save them from starvation.

as the female Orcs gather the meat to be cooked, that was hunted by Ramiel and Sharn, they sat again with the Chief and tribe elders and the rest of the Orc races around the bonfire.

Ramiel requested them if were they given the opportunity to save another of their kind or even other races in need of saving, please not turn their back on those who are suffering, especially if those people are like them, with honour and a sense of duty to protect their family and kind. fight to save and protect this is what Ramiels grandfather and teacher have taught him.

then he added tomorrow will be his last day in training, and he still wishes that the Orc tribe or any type of race, would follow his simple idea to live in a comfortable and peaceful land that he has chosen for them.

the night was long but this time Ramiel including the wolf cub was able to laugh, share stories, eat and finally have a great time with them, after a few more hours, he ask the chief to be excused for he has something important to do, the Chief bowed down and Ramiel went on his way,

Sharn secretly followed him to the same location where his planned entrance would be.

so Ramiel sat down comfortably facing the mesa wall opening that he made, is his mind he was calculating and formulating every possible detail that he will encounter the next day, after the long night, sharn fell asleep behind the rock facing Ramils position, as time passed on and the warmth of the sun was touching Sharn cheeks, Ramiel was already awake and recalling what he did last night in his meditation,

the Chief with his entire family came to see Ramiel for the last time when they saw Sharn standing,10 meters away from Ramiel as he was already in a stance as energy flowed out of his body and flowed up toward his hands, the force his energy was heavy, and the air was getting warmer and his hands were filled with concentrated energy, that it was making them weak,

"ah! this is wrong, the energy must be controlled properly, make it part of the energy that surrounds the place,"

"There should be balance in both order and chaos! each fabric or particle must be aligned with what I need to do!

"now! it's almost there!"

"Mystic Projection barrier,"

"Exploitation of Knowledge,"

" Transcending Energy Precision,"

"Assimilation of Phantom Energy,"

"now! combine, Aura Wave of Devouring and Decimation Rage blaze,"

"reform it and create a better much more controlled spell,"

"With the right angle, focus and imagine,"

"Activate! Devouring Decimation Plasma Wave."

a powerful but controlled energy blast came out of his hands and destroyed the Mesa wall like it was nothing, it carves the mountain pierce thru the top at a sloping angle, and the impact and force were perfectly analyzed by him, so there should be less shockwave to affect or wreck any part of the land terrain.

the chief's family members saw this god-like ability and kneel down to him and waited, Ramiel nearly depleted his energy, which made him collapse sitting down while catching his breath and laughing.

"wow! that is one hard rock! he he he!"

"oh! guys what are you doing there?"

every Orc that saw his power, was looking at him with so much admiration and a sense of loyalty, Ramiel stood up just pointed to the entrance of their new home and said,

"My dear friends, I welcome you to your new home!"
