With a few copies of the current research status on the ruins in his high spatial storage, Walker returned to Genesis with Alma. The pair were glad to know a little more about the ruins and also about how the guards in an area around a bridge to the elemental planes were fairing.

The denser mana of certain forms was a reaction to the guards and mages stationed there with matching affinities. It has allowed for some random breakthroughs in understanding. One guard who had always known he had a very small wind affinity found that he gained a quest to realize the true potential of his wind affinity.
