After space and time--choosing to name themselves after they elements--formed we had to wait a while before we could form the realm tree seed. They may be demigods but if anything that just made the wait longer, and each day that passed foreign energy from the gaping holes in our world continued to increase.

Yalin’s body was still in pristine condition if anything changed then it was unnoticeable. Her body kept on releasing energy but it just gathered to form a fog around her body.

When the two demigods finally had enough strength everyone was more than a little anxious. After years of hard work everything was ready.

After we all gathered Space and Time added their energy to the realm tree seed. With a burst of energy the seed flew out of my control and rested just above Yalin’s corpse.

”Was that supposed to happen?”

Gaia said what was on everyone's mind.

With increasingly dazzling rainbow light the shell of the seed slowly broke apart for roots and a stem to pop out. The roots continued to grow until the wrapped around Yalin’s course, while the stem kept on growing until reaching a height of 15 meters.

”Well it appears that the realm tree is using Yalin’s body as a source of fuel, sapping off of the energy to grow itself...”(Space)

”Not only that but her roots as tried to reach the clumps of foreign energy but any roots that though the stuff just completely disintegrated.”(Time)

”...so, what now?”(Aqua)

”...now, we wait again...”

”Your majesty, I’ve come to report on the current events between the gifted and ungifted...”

"Oh, more problems have occurred between the two..."

"Yes your majesty, this time the ungifted took it upon themselves to start leaving the capital, but when the gifted heard of it they denied such actions using your name..."

"...Oh, so a bunch of lazy mages don't want to work mortal jobs so their forcibly keeping mortals now..."

A glint flashed through the King of Ash eyes as he stared into the capital below him.

"Finally, you've grown enough that I can now create the realm wurms..."

Gathering my energy I purified it of its flame element and started working on a new race. I had a clear picture, like the eastern dragon in shape but these wurms had no wings or arms. Their bodies were clear so that any energy they contain could be shown, they would be able to float and fly around without the effects of gravity and their food source would be elemental energy.

Their lives were tied to the amount of energy they contained, when they reached the limit of energy their bodies can contain they would slowly start to die until they burst out with all the energy they collected. This way that energy would be used to form new worlds, but if I just left it like that then the realm would always be different--only if slightly--but all the same size.

So I compromised, their bodies would grow every day slightly so that their size would all be different from one another, so now the slower eaters would end up forming the larger realms.
