Chapter 2422: 2422. New Unity



While the calming down of the entire city was not quick, there was a lot more that people began to discuss.

The ideas of different cultures' funeral rites and how to handle the dead of others in battle or outside of battle sparked a lot of conversations. Specifically, it came to the dragons and dragonkin.

Some dragons were different because of their affinities and the environments that they lived. Fire dragons preferred to be left to the magma of wherever they had lived, while the earth dragon preferred to be left deep in caves. This was to return to the elemental manas that they had the highest affinities for.

Rise surprised others by explaining that she and the other light dragons would naturally like their dragonkin to use their bodies as materials to become stronger. It was shocking to hear that right out since Walker believed that this conversation had gone in to something that would cause issues.

Many people had used groan materials, not just shed scales or broken off horns or teeth. They had been taken from young rogue dragons or the found bodies of dragons out in the wilderness and used to be crafted in to items. This has gone on with various races for years and could easily be seen as disrespectful or cruel in some ways.

However, no dragon believed that to be the case. Simply put, they saw themselves as the top predators. Meaning, that if they were hunting and fighting to take food from all others, why would they halt the weaker beings from consuming their dead in some way shape or form to continue living? That would be against nature.

The echidna were the same. While they believed that natural mana and nature was always flowing, they also believed that the bodies of their deceased needed to return to nature through some means. Some would have scales on their skin that could help enhance the understanding of natural mana and were made in to items used during the raising of a child to help them grasp natural mana better.

A shocking thing to those like the dwarves who believed a burial in the deepest of caves or by flame was the proper send off. Their entire race had been grown underground and in forging, naturally they would believe that this method was a natural way to take a proper step toward anything related to moving from life in to whatever was next.

When the demi-humans and the elves spoke, they found that they were almost identical. While the demi-humans believed fighting to the death was a greater honor and the elves believed a death in peace after attaining a unique understanding of manas or nature within themselves was important, both believed the body should be used in specific ways.

They both had the thoughts that the body should nourish the land around it. Allow for plants or crops to grow better and become the base of the future to grow. This was a little shocking since the two methods of death were so different in their ideal goals, however, their beliefs of what happens to the body afterwards actually brought them together.

Beyond that, the angels also made it clear that they wanted help finding and protecting the fallen floating cities of the past. Something that Walker and the other council members had immediately agreed to since they had already vowed to assist with that in the first place.

A major announcement to say the least for those that had not expected the chances to be able to go out and live on another continent. It had been hatred so far for people to fully grasp the actual size of the world and the reality that the other continent existed.

Then again, there were theories of other continents out there in the vast oceans. No one had proof but since the floating ships were being made and the entirety of Genesis supporting the water faring and floating ship projects, explorations would only increase.

That was the same with the merfolk within to explore the deep oceans. Not only to rediscover abandoned ancient merfolk cities that may still partially remain down there, but also to grow their homes. To ensure that the oceans did not hold any surprises like the lands above.

All of these topics had been discussed leaving Walker's head feeling like it would burst. But it was well worth it. The fear that came with the undead shifting slime had brought out so much conversation that would grow and unify all the races of Genesis.

"I believe that is enough for today. We have been here speaking for seventeen hours. I feel that we should focus on one final matter and be done for the time being." A representative of the vampire race speaking for them since they were working on their race's private matter recently and had left to excavate more from their ruins spoke up. "I wish to request help gathering items from an ancient vampire city we know is located near the demi-human kingdom. It should be buried under the ground by now, but still there."
