Lily watched as the white haired Keng appeared in view. The sounds of two more footsteps climbed the stairs as she held the ukulele in her hands. The musical notes floated around her, quietly dying as she registered Keng.
"Keng?" Lily called out. Keng stepped inside and gave her a big smile.
"It is you! It seems we've arrived at the same time." Keng greeted her. Lily came over and gave him a small bow.
"Who's this Lily you're talking about, Silver one?" Jyu'so asked. Gorrum pulled the close door open, letting in more sunlight and a larger gust of wind in.
"A friend from a village not too far from here, Elder Jyu'so. She's a Savior." Keng answered. He moved to reveal the growing teen as she registered new faces.
"A hybrid." Gorrum spoke plainly.
"Don't be rude, Gorrum. She has loads of energy floating around her. I'm sure you can see that." Jyu'so hushed Gorrum. Gorrum nodded and gave a bow to Lily
"Oh. Hello." Lily greeted, nervously. She bowed at them and Jyu'so gave her a small bow, too.
"Hello, young one. You have come here on your own?"
"Y-yes, sir." Lily nodded. "I'm here to check up on the Tomb. I didn't know Keng would be back."
"Yeah, it was a last minute idea." Keng rubbed the back of his head.
"Did you just arrive on Daros?" Lily asked.
"No. I've been here for… a month? Month and a half? I'm not really sure. I'm still confused about Daros to Earth time."
"What's so hard to stop understanding about it?" Gorrum scoffed. "I've already told you but you don't really listen. A day on Earth is 6 days here. You can do the math and understand you've been here well over a month."
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Time is so strange here. 2 years here would roughly be what… 2 months?"
"One earth month, roughly." Gorrum corrected. Keng pointed at Gorrum and looked at Lily like "see what I have to deal with?" Lily giggled and Gorrum shook his head.
"Alright, alright." Jyu'so hushed the Harpy-Fox Spirit hybrid. "We've made it to the Tomb and it seems like we have another member amongst us. What shall we do about the training regimen, Gorrum?"
"We were going to begin sensory training but if there's a guest, we should take today to hunt and eat together." Gorrum replied. Jyu'so nodded and the two younger Foxes looked at them with curious eyes.
"Eat?" Lily repeated.
"Yes. It's been a long time since I have seen another Savior. You do know the significance of being a Savior, Lily? You resonate with such bright energies, I would have to guess you must be special in some way. We must eat to celebrate you and Silver one's reunion!" Jyu'so told them.
"Oh, well… there's… nothing really to eat, Elder. We'd have to hunt and I was about to go do that actually." Lily stuttered.
"You know how to hunt at your age? You must've learned well at a young age." Gorrum complimented her.
"Well, it's just me and my parents since my brothers are all gone. Dad wanted me to learn especially after I had those dreams to come to the Tomb."
"A dream?" Jyu'so looked at Keng.
"Right. She was there when I was fighting the corrupted Ent. She came with Commander Chimera." Keng reminded them. The two older Foxes nodded.
"I see Eldest has already given their thumbs up to you." Jyu'so nodded. "Let's figure out what there is to do and get dinner going for all of us. Do you know if there's any spices of sorts here?"
"There's some. I saw some seeds months ago and planted them. I've come back earlier than expected to check on them, actually." Lily pointed behind her to the right. "It's out in the back. Although, this place is confusing to walk around in."
Lily turned to look at Keng.
"Have you thought about altering the place? I've asked for some people's opinion on the contraption that's in the back. They say it's a huge magical crystal that's fueled by the natural energy around here. The theory is the Tomb can actually retain it's outside look while growing smaller or bigger based on the amount of Saviors. I didn't want to try anything until you or, uh… Your twin was here."
"Lee Seng." Keng told her.
"Mmm, Lee Seng. Speaking of him, where is he?" Lily asked. Even though Keng had gotten good at masking what he was feeling on the outside, it was no use for Lily. She could see something was up by the way the musical notes played around him.
"It's complicated. Just know I have to be here for two years before I leave." Keng told her. "Let's go alter the Tomb then."
"Leave hunting to Gorrum and I." Jyu'so told the two young ones. Keng and Lily looked at them.
"You sure, Elder? It's no problem." Lily told them.
"Don't worry about it, Pink one. We shall return in a moment. Prepare a fire for us, alright?"
"S-sir, if you insist." Lily gave them a bow. The two waved at the younger Foxes before turning and disappearing.
"I didn't think they'd be that nice." Lily looked at Keng. Keng shrugged and the two moved to the back of the Tomb. "Are they usually like that? Why're you with them?"
"I'm training under both of them. Elder Jyu'so offered to take me in since I can't be with Commander Chimera's people." Keng told her.
"Why?"
Keng began to tell her roughly what happened. He ran into a problem on Earth and was forced to split from Lee Seng for the time being. He showed up miles away in the middle of the sky and thankfully was saved by Chrono.
"And since then, I've been here. I've been practicing how to feel and manipulate Energy. We're actually here so I can do my Sight Energy Sensory training, actually." Keng explained.
"Ah, you're here for Sensory training. Dad taught me a little but about that. Just enough to use when I'm training but I haven't practiced too much." Lily explained as they stopped at the door.
"Well, you're welcome to join me if you want. I can ask just to be sure." Keng opened the door and the two were greeted by the large crystal.
"You sure? I thought they had to do a test to know what to train you in."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"They do, but it doesn't hurt to include you. You are a Savior. Who knows, it might come in handy one day." Keng turned his attention onto the crystal.
[It's been awhile, Leader Keng. What can I do for you?]
"Can you alter the inside of the Tomb to accommodate us better?" Keng asked.
[Yes, I can. If you have any specifications, do let me know. I have a set number of things that must be kept, though. Would you like to know them?]
"Sure."
[The library, this room, the Shrine, and at least one bathroom must be kept due to the original creator's specifications.]
"No bedroom? Strange." Keng muttered. "That's fine. You can keep those. Keep five or six bedrooms. If there isn't a kitchen, add one. Sink, place to cook, cut meats and vegetables, etc. Make it more homey if you can and keep the specified things in the front of the Tomb in case of emergencies."
[I will add these to the list. Is there anything else the Leader or the member would like to add?]
"Oh, I added a garden outside in the back. Is there anything you can do with that?" Lily asked. [I'm afraid my specifications are limited to the inside. If you would like to have an indoor garden, I can create one. Creating rooms that haven't been integrated into my knowledge will use a lot of energy.]
"Keep a medic room available with supplies, too." Keng told the crystal.
[Supplies and medical supplies are added to the list. I shall create extra rooms to accommodate necessary things listed by the Leader. If that is all, I will start the process.]
"Alright. Start." Keng nodded. The door shut and the room began to shake.
The whole Tomb building shook. It began to pulse like it was releasing energy outwards. The outside of the Tomb shredded its missy cobblestone and vine-ridden stones with a cleaner white marble look. The rooms began to close in on each other and shift around, new rooms appearing in specific places. Everything shook for awhile until it came to a stop.
[Rearrangement Process has finished. Energy levels have fell to 65%. Passive Energy collection will start, again.]
"Is it done?" Lily asked.
"I think so." Keng nodded. The crystal's light dimmed and the door flew open. The inside wasn't different from the ungodly colors of gold and silver They were neutral walls and dark stone flooring. The two stepped out of the crystal room, Lily letting out a gasp as the both of them took in the new interior work.
"Wow, it did change in no time… Is this even the same place?" Lily asked.
