Chapter 9 - Tholara

"Gather round all of you, it is time you guys go out on your own, it's not good to be cooped up here with your mother all day every day." Bell looked around to see all of her children, fairies grow up pretty fast, only around two to three months but after they live pretty long lives.

There was a mix of excitement and sorrow on the faces of her children, there was a total of 200 fairies she gave birth to with the help of the weeping willow, and after these months it was clear that the tree wasn't the same anymore.

It's leaves took on a deep blue color while the bark of the tree seemed to glow with a silver-gold color that was visible during the nights of Tholara. After a month of living with them they truly grown into smart fairies, I even let them name the world hence Tholara.

(a/n: I like to pronounce Tholara as The-Lara.)

"Okay little ones, in three days time you shall leave the lake and explore the surrounding, but you must be careful, there are dangers out there that even I have trouble dealing with."

During my time here I developed a nice system of things, instead of having specific skills it's more based on classes, if you have the explorer class you have an easier time exploring, the warrior class your able put power behind your actions. This way James wouldn't have to complain so much about those 'RPG' systems he talked about, always complaining on how it's too much information and hurts his brain.

You gain experience by doing your class, everyone starts off with no class, but this way they gain experience just by surviving the day and the actions they took during the day. When they reach level five their given the option to class change, so they have to seek out a class trainer or develop their own path.

The system also shows them their status allowing them to see their mana, stamina, and health as well as other stats depending on the class. Most of my children have the explorer class while few have warrior classes. The first eight of my children had the apprentice class, their learning under me on how to control magic. Each person had a different element for their magic, James said it was most likely because of the elements currently in his core.

"Mother, must we leave on our own, who will protect you while we're gone!"

"And mother, how will we find our way back if we get lost?"

"And Mother-"

All the little fairies protested leaving their mother to explore the world, they were scared and since their birth they've lived under the guidance of Bell.

"That is enough, you all know that you have a spiritual connection to this place, this is our home and you'll always find your way back. Second...who said I can't protect my self?" A chilling aura spread from Bell as she looked at her children, realizing their mistake they all flew away from the tree in all direction.

"I can't be here all day protecting you guys, I have a job to do..." A frown appeared on her face as some tears fell down her cheeks. While a flutter of her wings she disappeared from the clearing leaving no trace behind.

The willow sensing her disappearance seemed to weep with regret, the leaves of the tree reached out to where it felt her last and a flower bloomed in the spot. The tree released a mist from its branches hiding the lake from the rest of the world. Instantly Bell's children felt their connection to the Willow tree weakening and they all flew back to the clearing only to find nothing.

. . .

"Oh that's just cold Bell, you completely cut of your connection with your children?" James was looking at bell with an annoyed face. Bell was just looking down with a thoughtful expression.

"Look, Bell...I think your right, I see why now that you were rushing me to create my planet. So I was thinking..." Bell looked up with tears in her eyes causing James to shut his mouth.

"Bell..." James reaches out to give Bell a hug but she pushed him away.

"Just...give me some time James, I don't regret my decision but I still need some time to heal." Bell waves her hand and she once again returned to her [Domain] cutting off James vision from her [Domain]. 'I didn't know she could do that!'

"I was going to say that I wanted to make my own world and connect it to your world..." The [Core] already reached where I wanted it to, I got most of the basic elements and the laws I wanted have already been implemented. I didn't want something like Bell happening again so I decided to just give each law a drop of my divinity that took a while to cultivate and suppressed the growing will.

I found it's possible to cultivate the divinity but it takes a while to do so. My plan for the other laws was to have people from my world and Bell's world understand said law and become one with the law their understanding. This way I know that the races in our worlds are growing strong.

"Okay then, how about I surprise her when she's all better, maybe make a pretty cool forest for something as a connection to her world, or maybe..." I just had a cool idea but I would have to run it over with Bell first.

Calling on the elemental mana within the [Core] a planet twice the size of earth appeared before James. lakes and seas of water appeared forming a world of blue. 'Instead of making a sun why not use the [Core] as my sun?'

The [Core] released a blinding light as it gave of waves of heat casting the [Domain] in warm light. The water slowly retreated leaving lands full of green. Mountains and forests formed with some jungles here and there. After time slowed down to a reasonable pace there was about 5 continents of different sizes.

There was two massive continents, each had tall mountain ranges dividing the continents into two sections. Both had massive forests and plains that covered at least half of the land. The other three continents was smaller in size but it that was mainly because the three were once one.

Around the continents and mainly in between the continents was a bunch of small island that would be perfect for my starting races.

First race would have to be humans, their the easiest race with me being one and after I can try some humanoid races. When Irean talked about the next step she told me that I wasn't able to start off with a race like dragons or merfolk as I was a human, but I could start with human and humanoid races like dwarves, halflings, and gnomes.

It wasn't that hard to put the races in my world, first off I had to create a couple bodies of the shapes of dwarves, gnomes, halflings, and humans with mana before providing them a bit of my blood. I created 100 of each race and put them relatively close to each other on some big islands close to each other.

It would take probably a couple generations before their first contact but this way they could grow and develop themselves within my world. I blessed them with their own traits, like humans and their high birth rate, master craftsman for the dwarves, born explorers for the halflings, and lastly gnomes were the smartest of the humanoid races.
