"I would have really preferred that Gil and Walker were free for this." Su had returned to the island. Not because she was worried about the recovery, but because she had been called on since Walker could not be disturbed at all.
Once she and the others had heard about the situation, they were both worried and somewhat amazed. The natural runes forming had been something that should have taken at least five years, not a single week of beginning the process. Yet here they were, reckless aside, there was a partial natural rune, and a natural mana one at that, not a singular elemental mana.
This left her, Remey, Midnight, and Onyx with a little extra work. Onyx was maintaining a connection with the gathering of materials that Walker had been keeping an eye on. It wasn't that there had to be someone doing so, but since they were available, it was better to help here and there were smaller issues might appear.
