Life
There were no longer ice statues standing.
No more were the chaotic noises brought by the young creatures.
All those things were now gone, replaced by 18 yellow seedlings that arose from the ashes of their remains.
Still shaken by what they had just witnessed, Emery with Twik in his embrace slowly approached the yellow seedlings. A mixed feeling sprouted in his heart.
Immediately, Emery used his [Nature Grasp] to perceive the seedling once again. Thanks to that, he finally realized that they were not just ordinary plants. Although faint, he could sense a sliver of consciousness within these seedlings.
But what does it mean exactly? Does it mean that this is all they could become? Will they even be able to go back to how they used to be?
This line of thought Emery had was interrupted by Grand Magus Yvere as he said words that shot deep.
"Is that all their life mean to you?"
Once again, Emery was stunned hearing the elder's words.
