[QUOTE="Wrahn, post: 1355748, member: 9191"] Coreagen projects a great pride at Delak’s accomplishment, [COLOR=RoyalBlue] “I commend you, Delak.” “But you are correct, water without food will not sustain you. There are spirits every where, in everything. With time and effort, I will show you how to persuade them to help you.”[/COLOR] Aesa and Coreagen walk to a nearby bush, which has berries growing from it. Aesa reaches out plucking one, she looks at it and then pops it into her mouth. Signaling the rest of the tribe, others come and eat the sweet berries, leaving the bush barren. Coreagen speaks again, [COLOR=RoyalBlue]“The bush is like the pool. Too many have drank from it and now it is useless to us. In time, the berries will regrow, but like the spirits of the water, so the spirits of the plants will aid us, if we know how to ask.”[/COLOR] Coreagen again lifts Aesa’s arm closing her eyes, berries start regrowing on the bush, soon it is as full as it had been before the Sharalik had taken it’s fruit. [COLOR=RoyalBlue]“This is of course not free, there is a cost to us and a cost to the spirit that is aiding us. As you felt when you called the water spirits Delak. It will take time for any of the Sharalik to be able to call the berries forth from such a complex spirit as the bush.” [/COLOR] [COLOR=RoyalBlue]”Come.”[/COLOR] Aesa leads them into the cave, she reaches down and picks up a sharp rock, and begins scratching pictures into the wall, [COLOR=RoyalBlue]“There are orders to spirits, starting with the most fundamental, Earth Water, Air and Fire.”[/COLOR] Coreagen points to the symbols he drew for them, [COLOR=RoyalBlue]“The elemental spirits are the easiest to call, for they are the closest to your mother.” [/COLOR] Pointing above at the tree they have drawn, [COLOR=RoyalBlue]“Closest to the elemental spirits are the plants, like the bush or the tree.
