After signing a contract with Ware, my exploration of the ruins has been more successful than before I signed the contract.
This is not surprising.
Ware knows what it was like when people were enjoying their time at these ruins. However, Ware is a spirit, so he does not know everything about people's lives.
There are some things we don't know.
Nevertheless, thanks to Ware, we were able to grasp the lives of the people in this land that we had not been able to see the whole picture of before.
It was so long ago that I can't even imagine.
The people who lived here have come to the end of their lives and are no longer alive. My heart was thrilled with the joy of being able to trace the lives of those who are no longer with us.
Ware and I talked with each other under the starry sky.
Ware and I talk under the stars. Were there more spirits here in the past?
Yes, there used to be. Stacy, the water goddess, had made a contract with several water spirits, including me. And when the spirit tree was healthier, there were many spirits ....... But when people stopped living here, they all disappeared or disappeared..."
The water godchildren had made a contract with those who were associated with water. I had heard this from Mr. Lan, but when I heard Ware's story about the actual contract, I thought again that it was true.
Thanks to Ware, we also learned how the buildings were originally lined up in this location, and Mr. Lan was happily making a map of the area.
However, it is certain that this is a dangerous place where a runaway of magic power occurred in the past and people could no longer live here - it seems that there are places where there is swirling magic power that may run out of control and ...... you have to be careful there. I guess we have to be careful there.
The reason is that Mr. Dorroian has been purifying the area around here, and after the water godson, the demon godson wished for the prosperity of this area, so this area is a natural place for the demons to live.
The human-caused disasters are much worse than natural disasters," he said. The land had become uninhabitable even for this spirit, but now ...... it is full of pleasant magical power, and I am happy about it. It's nice to see my precious land becoming a spirit-friendly place to live."
Ware said that with deep emotion.
Ware said that man-made disasters are more frightening than natural disasters.
He said that man-made disasters are much scarier than natural disasters.
I don't know much about the horror of natural disasters. I know about rain and lightning, but I have never experienced a disaster that killed people. Ware said that was because of my power as a divine child.
Stacy, who is also a child of water, said that such disasters rarely occurred in her place.
And even if a magical disaster did occur, this place, as a place loved by the Water Goddess, would still have some influence.
The disasters that people have caused are still roiling in this land.
Ware wants to do something about it.
Lelunda, if you can, I would like you to help make this land more livable for people and spirits," he said. There is more magic vortex left than I thought. ......
I'm sure you'll be able to find a way. But is that vortex of magic ...... really that dangerous?
The most important thing to remember is that the best way to get the most out of your home is to make sure that your home is safe and secure.
The actual vortex of magic is still in the ruins, however. Ware says it's dangerous, but I don't see any danger in it.
Lelunda, it may not be dangerous for you. Lelunda is a godchild. Stacey lived in a place where everyone around her thought it was dangerous. But Lelunda will still have other people with her. It's dangerous for them.
To me, it seems that even that vortex of magic is not dangerous.
--But it's still a danger to Ran and the others who are with us.
Then we have to do something about it. I don't want everyone to be in danger.
"Then I have to tell everyone to stay away from ....... Do you know where it is?
Yes. The magic is different. I think Frenet and Lelunda can feel it.
How?
It's easy to detect if you meditate and look at it quietly, spreading the magic around.
Spread it?
Well, I'll give it a try. I'll try to spread the magic to Lerunda and share it with her.
Ware then closed his eyes and took my hand.
Then I feel Ware's magic power enter my body. It is a kind of comfortable magic power, and when I meditate, I feel as if I am in water.
I sense Ware's magic power spreading, and that magic power is a different kind of magic power.
Do you get it?" This is a piece of runaway magic power.
I remember it. I memorized it.
"Good. And you know how many of these there are around here?
Yeah. There's some really small ones, and then there's some bigger ones.
You can ignore the small ones. But the big ones, ...... something can trigger them to go out of control, so you have to be careful."
Ware told me that, and I nodded.
Then I practiced spreading my magic the same way Ware did. I couldn't do it as well as Ware. I thought I would practice more, expand my magical power, and try harder to feel it.
