Hey guys the donation buttons up, so that also means the sponsor queue is also up and running. So I will GUARANTEE 3 chapters a week. However I will also write as many as I wish in that week as well. This is only set at 3 in case other stuff happens. Anyways as for sponsored chapters I am willing to do as many as donations I get. However if I get a billion I obviously have to cut it off. So lets throw the number of 20-40 a week of sponsored. Not that it will ever get that high anyways. As for the price it will be $10 a chapter. I will update the fiction page and you will be able to find out the amount in the queue from there. Anyways thanks for your time.

Some of the Pathwalkers wanted to retort, but from the look of Balan they could tell his stance on not speaking any longer was obvious at a glance. As such they could only reluctantly walk out of the Pavilion unwillingly. Rauf and Owen followed after and Balan followed by Alesia and Iohanne spoke into his ear so only he could hear.

“Good luck little friend. I expect many things of you.”

“Good luck Owen! Don’t die on me okay?”

“Tread carefully, and strive to be the strongest you can Owen.”

Owen spoke with actions instead of words and be gave a deep bow towards them . As he wasn’t sure when he would meet these people, as they treated him with respect he would naturally show how grateful he was to them. The three of them nodded while smirking. And then Owen finally walked through the door.

On the other side was an entirely new world for Owen. Although there shouldn’t be much of a difference between this side of the Boundary and the other, in fact from the vibrant colours of green and red it was already enough to say that the Essence here was incredibly thick. Not to mention the moment that Owen stepped outside he felt his lungs were sinking from the amount of Essence within the air. He knew exactly why it was so beneficial to know the breathing technique. He would never have to channel forcefully on his own and just by living he could get stronger. He could focus all of his attention on the Art of the Sash and concentrate on fighting Devourers and finding tokens from other Pathwalkers from the other Pole Islands. At this moment though Rauf stood beside him.

He had grown back to his previous state when Owen first met him. Actually Rauf was able to turn back into his older form when he broke through but because he made the ‘I get to slack off more as a child’ he stayed looking like a kid. That was the only reason and Owen wanted to retort but both he and Rauf were people that did things they way they wanted. It wasn’t a bad thing, it just meant agreeing with one another was very difficult. But meeting a friend doesn’t mean grouping up, as both the Kovinth and the Rebirth Snake made it clear that they would have to split ways from here on out. In the final moments, Owen stretched out his hand towards Rauf.

“Good luck. Don’t go looking for the afterlife too early alright?”

Owen spoke with some slight reluctance in his voice. He did after all think of Rauf as a friend. Rauf returned his handshake while wearing a heavy smile.

“Yeah. Take care Owen, Let’s make sure to meet again alright?”

Owen nodded in response, and started to walk away. His forced his heart beat to remain calm as left. Rauf on the other hand stood there for a few moments watching Owen’s back as he left.

‘Well, we will meet again.’

With a nod he too, started to walk in the opposite direction.

The day passed like that, and Owen was travelling quickly through the Boundaries. The Boundaries themselves were quite large and it would take months to even reach the outer edges of the continents. Time was also not a major factor for Owen. He would patiently find some intense green plants and stop to investigate them. After the Essence arrived many new herbs and plants were growing in this new world. Owen realized after smelling the sweet fragrance from the flower that it was clearly some sort of herbal medicine. It was called the Honey Flower, and it could be used to heal injuries as the honey would prevent blood loss. On the other hand if one drank the honey pollen from the flower they could heal most injuries in half the time!

This was something Owen already had an amazing ability in, and with the help of Kovinth he learned most of the herbs by scent. This one in particular had a honey like smell as a liquefied pollen was created from the middle of the flower.

As Owen was investigating the flower he heard the tiny flaps of bees fly over carrying the pollen over to other flowers. Because this sap was filled with instence Essence it allowed other plants to grow like crazy. When Owen felt he learnt enough to plucked the flower and prepared to turn it into a paste. Although he didn't have a mortar he had the next best thing, the Little Light Rock. As he used it to grind the flower into paste, he shoved it onto a large leaf wrapping it up for use later.

The Pathwalkers weren’t allowed to bring anything other than weapons, and knowledge with them to the Boundaries. Anything they wished to acquire had to be bought from the Keepers in villages or made themselves. After wrapping up the flower, Owen started to gather firewood and create a lean-to for the night.
