Pov Elf Queen Lolth:
Dawn of the third day of Monster Wave.
It’s already the third day and the World Tree is already completely taken by the multicolored glow that can be seen through its cracks.
Looking up you can see the leaves burning in strange multicolored flames, looking up it looks like the sky is on fire.
But this amazing sight is also very dangerous, the energy in the area around the World Tree was once just a churning river, but now it looks like an ocean during a storm.
The energies collide with each other so hard they create small bursts of energy and all the monsters that appear are now Lower Catastrophe Grade.
I look up where that strange Fairy has dozens of orbs made of elemental energy from several different elements casting spells in quick succession against a flock of Stormhawks, the monsters being torn to pieces brutally being hit by dozens of spells without time to do nothing.
The situation with the other Familiars of Zenos were not that different, the Alicorn who seems to have Demon Dragon blood was only using his Aura as a weapon while flying around armies of Swamp Giants, he was as brutal as the Fairy.
The Spirit that appears to be a Dragon was in its true form, unlike the others it used less skills, but that was because of its powerful body being enough to destroy any enemy that showed up, at least until more than 20 Lesser Dragons appeared that she has been fighting above the clouds creating massive explosions.
The strange Incarnation of the Forest that is closest to me has made dozens of trees grow around it, all the approaching monsters only pierced by branches as sharp as spears, cut by leaves as sharp as swords, or devoured by giant flowers whose petals look more mouths full of teeth.
The Red Wolf with wings kept going around hunting only the toughest enemies like those that have camouflage, extreme speed, have superior intelligence or regeneration skills, he would find these special enemies as if he was hunting them and always attacked in your blind spots.
But the Ghost or Specter was strange, there were always several bodies around her, but I could never see her attacking, but I felt there was movement around her, the few times I saw her move was when a monstrous head emerged from her arm and devoured a Poison Fire Frog.
“This is a strange group of Familiars, but I suppose they match their master.” (I)
I look at Zenos, he seems to be standing in the same place all this time with one hand on the World Tree and the other holding the Ancient Elf’s hand.
I can see the whirlwind of energy enveloping them, even approaching them would be suicide, plus that Astral Body standing behind Zenos seems to be sending some kind of energy to the World Tree, I can’t identify what energy this is, but it doesn’t look like it be nothing harmful.
“How does it feel knowing that your dream will soon come true?” (Margareth)
“I’m happy but at the same time frustrated not being able to help.” (I)
“Few would be able to do what he is doing.” (Margareth)
“Do you know what energy that Astral Body is using?” (I)
“No, maybe my lady knew, but whatever it is, it seems to be cleaning up the corruption and turning it into power.” (Margareth)
“See between Zenos’ fingers.” (Margareth)
An old friend appeared at my side, when she came to me several months ago I was unsure why, but now I can imagine why.
I look at Zenos’ hands and notice a leaf appearing between his fingers, in a few minutes other leaves and branches grow faster and faster as they move.
“This went faster than expected, looks like the second part of the process is about to begin.” (I)
“I’ll be watching from afar, see you later Lolth.” (Margareth)
I look to the side and she has disappeared without a trace, I know that she is much weaker than I am, but I also know that she has many items that even I am not able to use.
“What are you up to…” (I)
Sigh
I turn my eyes to Zenos, but specifically, the crystal behind his hand that contained the seed of the World Tree, I know the ancient World Tree Spirit is inside there, but even apart from his body it should still be able to feel him being filled with power other than his own and now he will feel his body being devoured to feed his sister.
It has been more than once that I have seen a flow of energy come out of this crystal towards the amber colored cube where the body that Zenos said is that of the World Tree Spirit is, but it doesn’t seem to be able to enter alone.
“I feel so useless…” (I)
I look down at my still-clean hands, I haven’t been able to do anything but watch, I can’t even fight for fear of doing more damage than this place can handle.

Pov Samira:
Sigh
“Finally a break…” (I)
Finally a break after three days of constant battles, I must say that I am grateful that this village is empty because it was completely destroyed after three days of non-stop fighting.
“Sister, we must not let our guard down, last time we were almost ambushed by Poison Worms.” (Elsaris)
“Don’t worry too much, Jay is watching the ground.” (I)
“Besides I’m hungry and tired, I don’t have the same poison resistance as you or our Father to drink poisonous blood.” (I)
“That’s why I said you had to practice ingesting weak poisons daily, that’s how I got my poison resistance skill.” (Elsaris)
“Thanks but no.” (I)
“Who would be the madman who would drink poison on his own?” (I)
“I’d rather train my dodging skills so I don’t get poisoned than do crazy training like that.” (I)
“This training is perfectly normal, this training is almost mandatory to have for any Assassin or influential person in the criminal underworld.” (Elsaris)
“I don’t intend to be a criminal, nor will you continue to be, we already talked about this…” (I)
“Mother!” (Jay) 𝙚𝙤𝙫𝙚𝒍.𝒐𝙧𝙜
“< Flame Mine >” (Elsaris)
Elsaris catches me and jumps behind me, then a big tentacle of rocks pops out of the ground where we’re standing.
“< Enable >” (Elsaris)
Soon the ground burns at a high temperature for a few seconds, when the fire goes out all that was left was a well of magma.
“…” (Elsaris)
“Do not say anything.” (I)
“Why would I say anything.” (Elsaris)
“I think it’s good or I’d have to punish you.” (I)
“Would you punish me for a few words?” (Elsaris)
“I have to keep my little sister well educated, that’s my pride.” (I)
Elsaris looks at me and smiles, then points to the magma pit.
“I told you so…” (Elsaris)
“Your…” (I)
