The blue sun was just peeking over the mountains in the distance. Fred shielded his eyes from the bright morning light, half a year past since Tomoe and Fred have been here in this planet, now they are scouting the neighbouring floating island Faokal.

Ganuiea the Great Crystal Queen Mother tree is where the Ragamsiah Serpents are born, their features, colours, sizes, and tasks are determind by birth and what their rules in the Primal Hivium. They have workers crystal gatherers, crystal mages, crystal warriors, hunters/scouts  and leader. those that are born from the crystal flowers, that grows from the roots are variant serpentine beasts that could be use for tracking, hunting, flying mounts or terrain mounts. They also gained the ability to return to the chrysalis and be reborn anew, making them practically immortal. Without their Queen Mother, they could not reproduce. Over time, a Ragamsiah named Tuvalka became their alpha. Tuvalka, as their Primal leader, discovered a way to save the Ragamsiahs' deepest memories as a gift to their future selves. Each cycle required them to re-experience and reinterpret their memories in a process known as the The Crystal Dreams. In order to preserve their memories through time, the Ragamsiah developed a magical Crystal that contained their collective experiences in a group consciousness known as The Primal Aspect. Over the millennia, the Ragamsiah developed a balanced philosophy of the world, a reflection of their own harmonious path to constant rebirth. They were solitary yet spontaneous, focused on simplicity and the wonders of nature, and detached from personal desires. They mostly kept to themselves, but sometimes travelled great distances to interact with other beings.

 A lot brighter than the grass, incandescent, as it illuminated all the corners of the large ancient vine trees and pink and yellow crystals growing from the vines and leaves like its part of nature, its diameter shouldn't be less than 15 meters. "The trees I saw until now in this forest were all Primal Vine trees with smooth and twirling trunks that grows everywhere, but look at that huge vine tree stretched high up in front of our eyes it is giving birth to living creatures." - Tomoe said. "This kind of mores are absolutely unique, I have never heard anything like this before, look at their ways of life." -said Fred, "How odd and bizzare way." Tomoe said. 

A shadow of something big lurking around the bushes of vine grasses, a green scaly quadropedal 5 foot creature locking its eyes to the two strange entity that it has never seen before. The Ragamsiah tracker beast has a thermal heat vision that could see through any living that is camouflaged, that's why the beast can see Tomoe and Fred. As the beast pounced at them, Tomoe reflexively dodged to the side while Fred got thrown but immediately flipped to the air using his attached saber. Tomoe unsheated her katana blade while slashed at the beasts' foot but it did nothing, Tomoe was shocked that it did no damage to the beast, she moves five steps back holding her katana in defensive position. Fred dashed to the beast then he diagonally slashed at it as he didn't noticed he was already hit by the beasts' tail sent him flying to the ground his head bleeding. "Tomoe let's run there might be more coming, our reconnaissance failed."- Fred said. As they ran away from the Primal Hivium territory, they are chased by more Ragamsiah.

"Tomoe wait for me on the other side" -Fred said "No, we need to go together, I am not leaving you here our mission is not to fight."- Tomoe said.  "Don't be stupid I'll fly away from here after I'm done with them, just want so sharpen myself again."-Fred said. " Alright I'll wait for you on the other side, don't die that would be embarrasing."-Tomoe said

Fred stopped his track to face the Warrior beast, while the four tracker beast stayed back.

"This is good, now I could probably have some fun," - said Fred, He dashed  with his saber forward while maintaining the pace and trajectory beyond the accuracy of a machine. 

The Warrior beast with his four arms pounced with sharpened claws and roaring ferociously.

"My body is light. My mind is clear. My soul is on fire. A massive claw will pass my face, and I'll charge forward. I'll challenge the monster's howls with roars of my own, and press forward. My entire body will focus, I will look for a chance to seize victory, pressing forward. The only thing that matter will be the enemy in front of me." -Fred chanted while predicting in a focused state.

 His chain of actions were so fluent. Fred stamped his right foot on the ground and shifted his weight to the left side of his body, converting the strength in the swinging motion inside the legs and waist from the hands to the tip of the waist, and he carried out his horizontal swing.The first strike that came swinging upwards from the bottom right position grazed past the enemy's left leg and stopped the enemy's motion. The second strike that swung from left to right horizontally sliced the chest made a light cut on the flesh inside The third strike that quickly swung down from the top right side sliced apart the left arm the enemy raised to defend himself from slightly below the elbow. The beast roared out in surprise as its body swayed slightly. Fred used the momentum as he stood up to ram right into its abdomen. Fred pointed the saber in his right hand into the center of the enemy, took a deep breath, and exhaled. Fred stabbed downwards and cuts the beasts other arm and Fred pulled his weight downwards dragging the beasts body down to the ground he twisted the blade of the saber breaking its other arm and he picked up the beasts claw that he had cut. Fred used the claw to cut at the beasts belly while staring at his enemy with his focused eyes, he jumped backward and readying to leap again giving a fair and honest fight to a downed opponent. Fred flipped through the air and did a side slash, Fred cuts the opponents neck deeply but not deep enough to cut the beasts head, the blood gushed out and the beast stepped back as it is feeling the pain. The beast is hurting a lot and the beast howled in frenzy, Fred and the Warrior beast, both dashed for a final showdown, Fred jumped spinning upside down midway through the air, he threw a hidden blade to his enemy's feet immobalizing it for a second and finally he landed cutting the beasts head, blood flowed like a fountain from the beasts neck then the beast fell down.

"I guess that was it, that was fun, see you next time beasts." - Fred said with a smile on his face then he flew away to the horizon.

Underground inside the vine mound, An old dying golden beast sleeping waiting patiently for its last breath and to be reborn again. A sudden sound came running towards him disturbing his sleep. A pet beast rellying a message to Tuvalka with its action. "Oh a frail looking humanoid has cut down one of our best warriors ah." Tuvalka said while wondering what race it would be, then Tuvalka touches the beasts back and then beast responded with its skin organ attaching to Tuvalka, Tuvalka understands the beasts thoughts and pasts. " Oh a Human, I haven't seen them since two thousand years ago, Interesting enough,they can just wait when I am reborn again."

Tuvalka has a little dislike towards the humans, one reason is that when they introduced new species in Aurora their world greatly changes the rapid shift of power greatly disturbed the whole ecosystem.

Kalaam solarpunk cabin base inside, Tomoe is busy a big map blocking the big round table and the map is full of underlines and crosses. "What is taking him so long, did he annihilate the whole base or something, we are not here to exterminate a species." -Tomoe said. Tomoe reached for her water pouch and slowly drinked water. The an electricity sound can be heard near the cabin. Fred opened the metal door scrapped from the escapepod, the Fred said " Sorry a bit late I was enjoying the scenery and savouring the taste of victory." " Alright thats enough, lets brainstorm all the informations that we had taken for the last 6 months." Tomoe said. " We are currently in Kalaam Skyisle according to a native that we forcefully gave a truth serum" -Tomoe said. "Natives in Kalaam are the Eshn'khla seakins threat level 3 Silver , next is Emperium of  Cynodictis threat level 1 Gold, dangerous existance they are civilized and more likely we could attempt to negotatiate with."

"Right," Fred said and continued ," So the last one are the Ragamsiah, Threat level unknown might be ranging from Threat level platinum 3 to Threat level Titanium 1, They look very ancient and can produce infinate spawns, hard to predict for the current informations are lacking."

Fred and Tomoe are deciding if they are going to explore more of the world or stay and just go for the crusial mission to reproduce, but at the end they both agreed to explore the world first and get informations and help the other humans/demi humans to effectively survive in this world.

Fred and Tomoe went for another topic what technology they would start at, with lack of knowledge and materials to skip for galactic exploration tecnologies. 

Fred said- " We have 9 choices , we could start from Ancient Era technology, Classical Era, Medieval Era, Renaissance Era, Industrial Era, Modern Era, Atomic Era, lastly the easiest Information Era and also Domination Era . We have limited technologies that we could do for galactic exploration Era. We don't really need it right now because we need to propagate, the more advance technology the more workers and brains we needed." " You are right maybe we could start with some easiest technologies improve bit by bit until we reached our current technologies, that will not gonna take longer than 200 years to reach that stage again," Tomoe agreed.

" Alright maybe, we couldnt do all from every Era but we could pick two or three technologies for each Era, The other technologie are useless for us." -Fred said, he touched his wristcom and screen interface list technologies of every era came out."

Ancient Era Pottery, Animal husbandary, mining, sailing astrology,Irrigation,writing, archery,masonary, bronze working, wheel. mining, wheel Bronze working Classical Era Celestial navigation currency,horsebackriding,ironworking,shipbuilding ,mathematics , construction, Engineering. Constructions Engineering Medieval Era Military tactics, Apprenticeship, stirrups, machinery, Education, military Engineering, castles     Renaissance Era Cartography, mass production, banking, gunpowder, printing, square ringing, astronomy, metal casting, siege tactics, needle guns.     Industrial Era Industrialization, scientific theory, ballistics, military science, steam power, sanitation, economics, rifling     Modern Era Flights, replaceable parts, steel Electricity, radion, chemistry, Combustion.     Atomic Era Advanced flight, rocketry, advanced ballistics, combined arms, plastics, computers, nuclear fission, synthetic materials, cloning.     Information Era Telecommunications, satelites ,guidance systems, lasers, composite, stealth technology, robotics, nuclear fusion, nano tech.     Domination Era advance nano technology, tactical robotics, Energy weapons, advance stealth technology, cybernetics implants, wristcoms, anti gravity tech, cross genetics.     Galacticexp Era  psi phenomena, exoskeletons, cryonics, Warp travel, space stations, arcologies, genetic mapping, swarm robotics, alien domestication, transgenics, field theory, astro dynamics, nano robotics, bionics, synergetics, hyper computing, bioengineering, biometallurgy, augmentation, artificial evolution, Alien hybridization    

Fred said, " So many useless once, but oh well technologies are part of human histories." "How about we sell or trade the technologies we know to the other intelligent beings Fred." -Tomoe suggested " Thats partially a good Idea Tomoe but maybe tecnologies from Ancient to medieval era for a safety." Fred Continued. "If we are strong enough, we could sell advanced technologies we know."

 "We will leave the other blank for now Tomoe, We might make a mistake it would be a waste of years of years of hard work for nothing. We have many strange variables that we still need to worry about."-Fred said " The two of us can do any simple technology from Ancient and Classical Eras, but for the other technologies we need more people for it."- Tomoe said. "Alright let us do the tasks."-Fred said and Tomoe nodded without questions. Tomoe and Fred went out of their cabin to explore the world and to scavange the materials that they needed in order bring the humanities back to its former glory.
