Every once in a while a curious tribesman would come by to see what the earth walls were all about. Peaking their heads in they would see the group making up bedding and a small place for a fire and run off to share the gossip.

Fairly soon a group of children had gathered daring each other to go inside and convince them to show off their earth magic. Soon the commotion was enough to draw everyone's attention.

" you know if you don't go out there they'll eventually rush in here and we'll have to clean everything up again." These words came from Remey, apparently she was used to the same thing happening in the orphanage. If you weren't careful your hard earned clean room would be a mess in a second. It was a lesson learned through experience.

" I feel like every time I get most of my mana back I have to use it all again, at this rate I'll run out forever." Standing up from his newly set up bed walker headed toward the entrance he'd made earlier. Seeing about ten kids huddled together trying to convince each other to go inside walker knew Remey was right, it was only a matter of time. " so I hear someone wanted to see some elemental magic!" Walker increased his vibrato to draw their attention.

Seeing that their ears perked up and eyes focused on him he knew he had his audience. Raising his hand he used a single mana to push some wind their way. Slapping his hand down the gust of wind flew from him ruffling all of their hair and causing their cloths to billow slightly. Chorus of giggles and squealing greeted his ears. "So can I ask someone to guide me to an open training area?" With the ice broken a few of them grabbed in to his arms and started to drag him away. Most of them ran way ahead getting close to one of the big ice walls. Soon the open space seemed large enough to play in.

Eyeing the scratchings on the ground he could tell this was the designated playing area. A few childhood games came to mind as he notices squares and numbers drawn in. Thinking back he remembered a large metal slide in the noble tier he had seen once. Maybe he could do something similar with his elemental manipulation.

"Alright alright stand back! Stand back! Open your eyes and watch the earth rumble!" Placing his hands on the ground he channeled his mana in to the ground. Shaking started causing inflammation surprised gasps from the kids. Even adults had come by to see the commotion. From the earth steps began to rise at the top a sloped smooth surface descending to the ground. After five minutes of shaking a perfect earth slide lay in front of them. " now add some ice..." walker headed over touching the smooth slopes surface pouring more mana in to it. Water was pulled from the air settling and freezing in to a mirror on the slide. It was complete an earth slide with a perfect slippery surface to slip and slide down over and over.

Walker climbed the steps he had made while everyone watched him, the kids seemed confused by even more excited. They hadn't seen a slide before. If walker hadn't seen one before either he wouldn't know what to do, but luckily he did. Upon reaching the top he sat his but down raised his arms and promptly flew down the slide. The air whistles in his ears and he reaches the bottom much faster than he wanted. Hitting the bottom h landed feet first and promptly tumbled twice before miraculously landing in his feet again he took a few unsteady steps. Glancing back at the group he only saw smiles, " well what are you waiting for? Get up there and slide!" His shout was all they needed as they all pushed and caught for the chance to get to the top. Even a few older kids and adults had made their way to the slide. It seemed his little creation would be a big hit.

Now that his mana was depleted again he headed a little distance away and took a seat on the ground. "Well you sure are a hit with the kids, any you've only just got here today." A skinny tall woman with grey brown ears greeted him. " I'm Janet my husband is Otis he mentioned you had some interesting skills so I took a walk and found this new creation. I've got to say you're living up to the gossip, but at this rate you want have a moment to breath at the fire tonight." Laughing to herself Janet headed towards the slide yelling for the kids to be careful and not to fight. It seemed the adults had come to organize the chaos but they all made sure to greet walker, word did travel fast here.

After relaxing and watching the children play for an hour or so he had relaxed and was sure the slide would remain intact and safe. It was just about time to eat and a few kids had already been dragged off by parents. Walker himself headed back to the little area they had finding everyone else all ready to head to the square.

" I feel like none of you would have even waited for me." Shaking his head he cleaned himself up brushing off some snow and trying to look more presentable.

" well hey we figured tour new playmates would drag you along." If one didn't know better Gil was trying to pick a fight. In turn walker tossed a snowball to the back of his head.

" hey don't start a ranger battle with a ranger! I'll bring you down with my hawk eye!"

" oh year right! I'll just learn a new skill and eagle eye every shot!"

The two bickered on in spectacular fashion until Su and Remey decided it was time to head to the square. Su grabbed gils arm and Remey grabbed walkers arm and off they were dragged. " let's go girls no more drama we have a dinner to attend" Remeys words hit hard ending the matter but she was right it was time to go eat.

Followed by Laurence and the others they headed back to the square. The closer they got the more voices they heard. The scene that greeted them was spectacular. A massive bonfire made it seem to be daylight in the center of the square. Many small wooden table had been brought to line the outside of the square leaving plenty of space between the fire and myriad of food.

"Wow they do this every night?" Riley with a rare line felt he had found his dream. Rushing off to join those eating he seemed to find a group of tribesman just as involved in the live of food as him. Laurence wanted to stop him but knew it was inevitable, at least he was off with likeminded individuals.

"Elise let's go find some desserts! Su come on we're finding desert." Just like that the girls had rushed off following someone who seemed to be carrying a pudding.

" well looks like it's just us, do we go to eat with the elders?" Laurence had been here before and his plan to eat with the elders came from previous visits. He knew that it was an unsaid rule for guests to respect and down with elders if possible.

" sounds pretty good to me, the man with with the scars seems pretty interested in what we can do. I'm sure he's already heard of my elemental manipulation." The two headed towards a smaller group of tables where the elders were seated.

"Ah and so the young decide to come and visit the veterans. I'm glad you had the time to come join us for dinner. We've heard you made a very large impression in some of the rugrats after you made a private space your yourselves." The one eared elder seemed happy to see them and made sure to emphasize that he knew what they had been up to. This was almost certainly the elder to watch out for, very sneaky.

" we felt that it would only be right to come greet our kind hosts. Not to mention I'm sure after hearing about my antics you're curious enough to what else I can do." After turning in the charm walker smiled and reached for a cup of water the elder offered to him.

" you have that right, you can manipulate three elements. Wind, water, and earth. That's a pretty rare feat." The elders were very impressed with the skill walker had shown but even more so with the simple fact that he had done something for the children.

" well actually I can manipulate all the elements. The skill is called elemental manipulation. I can use pretty much any skill that's not a mastery skill, every weapon, any gear, hahah I can even dance." Walker couldn't help but laugh remembering his new dodging skill dance of the wild rabbit.
