1386. Quiet City
The moment that Walker, Su, Midnight, Remey, and Onyx approached the city they were greeted by guards. "We are glad to see you back." The guards appeared to be numerous meaning that there may be something wrong.
"What's the problem? You all seem a little on edge?" If Walker didn't jump right in to it he would be behind the moment they walked back in the gates.
"Walker, it's like this." The guard began telling them what was going on. It was a benefit of knowing the guards but also the party's standing within Genesis.
"So the mage tower had a decrease in efficiency, the elves all reacted to the mana being off, and the elemental spirits have become reclusive except for the fire elemental spirits that seem more active. I understand." This was troubling for them since they weren't clear on the why behind all of this.
