Chapter 22 - Chapter 22, Sanctuary Planet

From the sky Senani could see a great many trees. He was flying over a vast forest. Thus far it reminded him of Reisa. After flying for a few hours, he could see a small hut on the ground. Senani flew towards that hut, it was the only settlement or even cleared ground he had seen since he entered the planet. As he flew closer, a being popped out of the woods. It had a body shape like a human, but it had a head like a bunny. The being was completely covered in fur. Even from the distance Senani was at he could tell it was female. She had a bow in her hands and a quiver of arrows on her back. Strangely, it was not alone. The girl was riding on top of a massive dapple and tan colored Dachshund. The Dachshund was so long it looked like a great worm. Its legs only just allowed its belly to clear the ground. With every bound of the Dachshund, the lady's ears bounced. Senani was rather amused and tried not to laugh. Bear did not have the same self-control. She and wolf were laughing hard.

Senani landed in a clearing beside the hut. As soon as he got off the pirate ship, the lady spoke. "I am la toot toot the spirit owner of this city. You wanna join the city? Bitey and me just found it. We sure could use the help to protect it. The other spirits used to laugh at me. They didn't let me join the towns they were in, they said I was too weak. You don't think I'm weak, do you? Me and Bitey here can defeat all the common creatures. Does that make us strong? I think we are strong. If you join me, I will show you where we hunt. If we can gain enough spirit stones, we could grow the city. The more stones that are in the throne, the higher the level and the bigger it grows. Its really nifty to see one grow."

Senani replied, "I am new to this planet. But if your alone, you may be better off joining me. You see, I am the leader of the guild House Sloth. I only brought a small number of my troops with me, but we could easily defend this city as you call it. We would be honored if you and Bitey would join House Sloth. You will be our first members in this planet. I will allow you to keep the city. I can even have one of my people manage it for you or teach you how to. Whichever you desire."

La toot toot responded, "Wow, you want me to join you? None of the covens on this planet ever offered to let me join. I sure would love that. How many spirt stones do you have? Do you have any? Can we add them to the throne now? I want to see city grow. What should we call this place? Can I call it Eternia?"

Senani replied, "I would have to see what the spirit stones look like. If they are what I think they are, I have several. If not, I promise I will find you some. Eternia will grow to be one of the largest cities on this planet. What do you call this planet? I come from Reisa."

La toot toot replied, "Reisa? There are legends of a planet Reisa. Several of the people that look like spirits but have no spirit stones came from Reisa if you believe the legends. One even says that a man named Azriel learned about spirit stones and made his own. Haha, who would ever believe that? The legend says he owned this whole planet and Reisa and that he brought over the people that look like spirits but are not. How could anyone own a planet Senani? They are huge, I mean I am doing good to have just claimed this city. I don't know the name of the planet though. The stories just call it Sanctuary. Maybe that's its name?"

Senani had La toot toot show him the throne. As he suspected the soul stones, he possessed were the same size as the spirit stones. After asking permission, he removed La toot toots stone from the throne and enacted a Spirit Covenant.

"Do you wish to activate a Spirit Covenant with the System less Spirit known as La toot toot?" Yes or No."

Senani chose Yes. As did La toot toot. Senani then placed her stone back in the throne. He reached into his pouch of unbound stones and created a second spirit stone for himself. He then placed it in the throne. He then summoned Ilromy, and requested she bring him all the Soul stones, even the ones of the 25 knights templar. He would create a second stone for them as well. Then he would place the original back into the statues at his palace. Ilromy did as requested. She had the dwarf remove the ones that had been placed in the dragon scale armor he had been creating and then she returned. She handed Senani two bags. One contained all the Knight Templar soul stones, the other contained everyone else's. Senani then asked Ilromy if she wanted to stay on the planet or return to the palace, as he intended to build a guild hall here, she could control the guild from either. Ilromy, being given the option again decided to stay with Senani."

Senani placed his own soul stone in the throne first. He did not want to cause harm to his subordinates if for some reason it did not function properly. Unexpectedly he felt a surge of power enter his body once he placed it. He then placed Ilromy's soul stone. She also felt a surge in power. Senani placed all the stones in the first bag. He would have to summon each of the knight templar to create a new second soul stone before he could place it in the throne. Creating a second soul stone was something he had discovered he could do while on the ship. Any time he touched the stones in his bag he had been given the option. Senani summoned each of the Knights Templar. Once bound to the second stones, Senani gave the original bag to Ilromy and asked that she place them back in the foreheads of the god bodies at the palace. He also had her take the Knights Templar with him so that they could go to the armory and get equipped. Senani then created a soul stone for each of the creatures he had brought with him. Each stone was placed in the throne. 5 minutes after he inserted them all, the world began to shake, and the city began to grow.

La toot toot said, "Wow Senani you have a bunch of spirit stones. I did not know anyone had that many. That should make us an artifact city at least. Artifact cities have a palace, can I live in the palace? You said I could keep the city; can I keep the palace too? I should let you have the palace. You might need it. Can I still live in the palace?"

Senani responded, "I appreciate you allowing me to have the palace, you will have your own wing of rooms there. After all you are the leader. Ilromy will also be staying there while she stays on this planet."

Once the ground stopped shaking, Senani left what had been a hut. He now stood inside a massive palace. Standing before him was a massive city. It was already the largest city in his kingdom. Unfortunately, it was also empty of occupants. This is something Senani and La toot toot would have to remedy. As Senani stood looking out at the city, he and everyone that had a soul stone entered in the throne felt a massive increase in power. La toot toot screamed out in exclamation. "This isn't an artifact city, it's a God city. As the ruler, I've got a God body now. I bet I can do some nifty things now. The other spirits will not call me weak, anymore will they? I bet they can't. You won't let them will you Senani?"

Senani examined La toot toot. She was correct, her body had upgraded from a common one to a God body. On Reisa he had upgraded his system and his body. His system is artifact, his body Tier 3 artifact. He gained an increase in power, but not enough to upgrade his body again. All the rest were upgraded significantly as well. All the common bodies and became epic at a minimum. Some had even become artifact quality. Senani was amazed. This first stop on his exploration of the new planet had been extremely beneficial. Bear was the next to speak.

Bear said, "I wish to bring over the pack. Create soul stones for them and we will guard this city. You do not currently have enough guards. You will need us."

Senani agreed and summoned the pack. He then created a soul stone for each and placed them in the throne. Senani was now down to 5 stones that were the right size for making soul stones.

La toot toot spoke, "Senani they didn't have spirit stones, you created their spirit stone, I didn't know anyone could do that. How did you do that? The city had a chest behind the throne. It had empty stones. I bet there is still one. If you can make spirit stones, you can have them. They will be my thank you gift."

Senani went behind the throne. What La toot toot referred to as a chest contained thousands of empty stones. He filled his bag and thanked La toot toot. These would come in rather handy. With the pack here Senani now had over 1,000 guards for the city. While that did not even scratch the surface for area, it would make Senani feel far more comfortable. Senani then teleported back to the palace. He went through the system stones he possessed and found a Mounted Knight system. He grabbed it to gift to La toot toot. He then returned to Eternia.

Senani approached La toot toot. He placed the system stone inside her. La toot toot was amazed. She did not know of any beings on this planet that possessed a system. With her improved body and her new system, she would effectively be one of the most powerful spirits on this planet. La toot toot then spoke again, "Senani thank you thank you thank you. I don't think any of the other spirits can beat me now. Can I join the ranking system? Can I, can I, can I, please, please, please? I bet I can do real good on there now."

Senani replied, "What is the ranking system? I have never heard of it."

La toot toot said, "O ya, your new here. Every city has access to the ranking system in the throne room. Its where spirits go to challenge each other. They even make bets there a lot. You can gain spirit weapons and armor and all sorts of nifty stuff. I even heard a spirit bet an entire city and all its occupants one time. I would never bet Eternia, but I have a bunch of spirt weapons and armor from the common creatures I've killed. I could bet them, but they would not be worth much. Only low-level people want common spirits. I bet I could kill epic ones at least now. I should go get some epic spirits. Say Senani do you want to go hunt with me? That would be fun. I need a new bow. You have so much stuff, do you have any bows? Senani do you?"

Senani replied, "I would love to join you on a hunt, and I am sorry, but I don't think I have any bows. I do have crossbows. I can check in my armory to see."

At that point, Ilromy arrived back at Eternia. She told Senani some great news. Every member that had their stones placed in the throne now had a higher-grade body. In fact, many of them wanted to come explore the new planet now. Senani told Ilromy to use her best judgment, but that each member that entered Eternia Senani would have to create a soul stone. He also requested that Ilromy find a Tier 2 Artifact bow for La toot toot. She agreed.

Senani told La toot toot to make sure she made Bitey her mount in her new system as that would increase Bitey's strength as well. Then he remembered something. When he came into the throne room there was only one soul stone on the throne. Bitey must not have one. Senani created one for Bitey and added it to the throne. 5 minutes later, her body had been upgraded to Artifact. La toot toot made her her mount and Bitey was given a Mount System. As she was now considered a part of Bitey, she was instantly raised to having a God body.
