”How the hell am I supposed to say hi to someone for you if you don’t tell me who…” Jake grumbled as the damn birdbrain didn’t make any sense at all. He genuinely had no idea who she was even talking about… it could be so many. Maybe another Primordial, seeing as Jake had met, like, half of them during Nevermore? Some Void God was also entirely possible… or maybe Artemis? It could even be that Wintermaul elemental, in case the one who’d blessed that guy was closely related to Stormild. Wait, it could definitely also be Minaga. Both Minaga and Stormild were chaotic as fuck.

Shaking the thought away as it really wasn’t worth dedicating any brainpower to, he turned his attention to Sylphie, who looked curiously at him. ”Ree?”

”No, just Stormild messing with me,” Jake sighed. Yeah, that was his conclusion, even if the Primordial could have actually meant something with her words. He really wasn’t a fan of people acting mysterious just for the sake of acting mysterious.

”Ree,” Sylphie responded.

”Yeah, not surprising an elemental spirit likes to mess with people,” he just agreed. Jake also took a moment to really feel the Union Oath once more. It was odd. When it disappeared, Jake hadn’t really missed it overly much, likely because he still always had the Golden Mark of the Fallen King to find and contact Sylphie quickly.

Then, after Nevermore, they quite frankly all could do with a bit of time apart to do their own thing. Now, it felt oddly comforting to have it back, though. Sylphie also seemed happy, which made Jake happy in return.

”So, what are your plans now? Gonna continue to help Whaleman?” Jake asked the hawk.

”Ree, ree, ree,” Sylphie confirmed. She also told him some interesting details he hadn’t heard before. Sylphie had recently adopted the role of primarily hunting elementals and given them stern talking-tos. Elementals tended not to be very good at listening, and even if they were intelligent, they were more akin to children than adults.

Some more adult-like elementals - such as the water elemental at the harbor town Jake, Carmen, and Sylphie had stopped by on their way to Paradise - were already working on taming the elementals close to human land. At the very least, the elementals were trying to eliminate them as threats to humanity.

Elementals trying to control other elementals was a lot easier than beasts trying to control other beasts, primarily due to their lower level of intellect. If a smart and powerful water elemental entered a group of dumb water elementals, these other water elementals would instinctively begin to follow the smart one.

Sylphie was this concept taken to the extreme. Other wind elementals practically worshipped her. She even told him of the time she went to the cloud islands that had drifted away from hanging above Haven a while ago. All the Cloud Elementals, Storm Elementals, and other variants were incredibly subservient to Sylphie without her even needing to do anything.

Maybe it has something to do with that Authority skill, too? Jake questioned himself without having any means to confirm. Sylphie also had no idea when he tried asking her, either.

”Seems like you got a quest ahead of you,” Jake smiled, happy Sylphie had something to do.

”Ree?”
