Nathan came with the group, noticing the Elven woman coming out, hearing her challenge echoing into the valley around them. Nathan was confused. When did he deserve this challenge issued against him? He could easily just use some power to show her what he was capable of. He could also just ask those around him to verify his status.
He took a moment to think, before deciding on the best course of action. He knew that the best way to gain this person’s trust was through knowledge. He may not know what happened between 668 to 997 A.E, but he was still a master with everything before that point.
"It's rather odd to see an Eira elf, I would have assumed you would still be up in the northern wastes, hiding away from the world, and since Saleh is the only one around, I would have assumed that you would remain in hiding."
Auryn felt her face growing cold, she would have believed the man after muttering her ancient race name. Most people called her a snow elf. Slavers would drool over enslaving her to sell for a profit, but her ancient race name was lost in time.
She was about to apologise, but could not even get a word in, her mouth shutting tight as the man continued. There was fire in his eyes as he wanted to prove his point, showing his superiority to the ancient elf who had lived more than five hundred years.
"Eira Elves, supported by the God Ingros, God of light, sun, and hope. He was also the patron of soldiers and army officials. Eiras originally came to his side as the white snow looks oh so beautiful in the bright sunlight. Now it seems you are lost in the darkness."
Auryn felt her heart spilling out, her memories flooding to her, the younger years she was promised had been snatched away when the great war started. She watched her race dying out, and her own life becoming hollow when they fled to the north.
"It's all lost. Hope is gone for you and your race in the north, I can tell just from by looking at you. Ingros was a stable force for an unstable race. You lost something, and now I can tell, you are withering each day. You are all infertile, if I'm correct, unable to have children."
Auryn felt like dying, her heart sinking as the man had not only uncovered her heart, but ripped it out for everyone to see. Tears started to stream down from her eyes, her body starting to shake as her knees became weak, collapsing down onto the sand as she sobbed. She had lost hope in her own future.
Auryn had come to this place to seek hope, thinking that maybe she could find Saleh and request her help. Only a Demigod could help them resolve this issue, but this man had just taken all of her cards and tossed them into the open for everyone to see. Saleh instead had just thrown her into this place to wither faster.
"Fear not, Eira, there is hope. I can provide you with a seed of fertility and grant you a power."

Auryn looked up at the man, her eyes wet and messy from crying, confusion written all over her face. She had never heard of a Demi-god giving power to a mortal before, it was a strange thing.
Nathan smiled gently as he mentally pulled open the store. He had over four thousand points to spend. It was time to create some miracles and complete some quests.

He quickly scrolled down to the power word bundle. Two words for the price of one was almost a steal, he knew he had to get this. While these two powers tended to be less combat based, he would still use them. He had to create a power base of worshippers to increase both his faith and also increase his dominion. While faith could be spent on consumables, powers, and other such items, dominion let him affect the world in a more permanent capacity. He could do many things with it.
He was going to spend most of his dominion in this coming moment, as he knew this first day was crucial to establishing his base of power.
"My name is Auryn. Master, how are you going to do that?" She asked, confused.
Nathan almost felt like spitting his lungs out, hearing ‘Master’ from a beautiful older woman did still have some effect. He kept a poker face as his eyes adjusted and watched her.
"Simple, I will grant you my power of fertility. It's a powerful word that can affect a province."
He summoned the power of fertility inside him. Instead of using it normally, he started to focus on giving it to someone else.
System: Would you like to give Auryn the power of Fertility? This will require an upkeep of (1) Dominion. (Y / N)
Nathan smirked as he pressed the Y option in his mind. He extended his hand as a white warm glow came from his fingers. Its light extended from his body as it wrapped around Auryn, entering her mouth, ears and eyes as she let out a loud moan, clearly affected by this power that penetrated her body.
Only a minute later had she stopped struggling against the power coming inside her. The last of it finished oozing out of Nathan, and she looked up at him, feeling the power inside her. It was like a beacon that gave her hope. When she was younger, she had the feeling from Ingros himself. This time, she owned the power on her own, and it was stronger. Who was this man?
"My God, I will serve till my final breath," she said, getting on her knees and bowing her head.
She pressed herself into the lowest and smallest form possible, showing utter defeat and submission.
Nathan nodded his head in a powerful manner. In his mind he could only think one thing.
'Bestowing her with fertility will cause one issue. She was already beautiful... But now she’s smoking hot!'
