Chapter 3 - Chapter 3: A New Life Form is Found

Aeraki, having been defeated by the mysterious Daw' is sitting on the wing of his ship in silence with the breeze of the sea pushing the waves to shore, he couldn't help but continuously replay his fight with the mysterious Daw' in his mind.

Aeraki

(No matter how much I try to think, there isn't a scientific way for that to have been possible! Nothing about his frame, stature or physique suggested his abnormal movements. Unless he was a Martian in disguise...) [No... Perhaps the tome might have some answers... but so far the only words I was able to translate were "Aether" "Aethemia" and "Aeons" I know now that "Aethimia" is the name of this place... a separate dimension from my own. But just as I suspected, that old lady seemed keenly aware of its existence... Though the fact that she did not press on to have it likely means two things: First being, she felt it prudent for it to be in my hands, and second, while she too knows about it, she has not a clue what it says either.]

Aeraki hears a flapping sound off to the left, the cloak Daw' was wearing was flapping in the wind, set down on the sand, it seemed something was pinning it down, Aeraki walks over and pulls the cloak, there is a large oval-shaped pod structure was under it, with root-like formations around it, the visible parts behind the roots shimmered in a multicolored light, Aeraki lifts it up, under it there's a thick golden bracelet, Aeraki sets the pod aside to pick up the bracelet, Aeraki examines it, strange symbols are carved in a straight line through the bracelet, along the carvings, there are indentations.

Aeraki:

[It seems like there's a purpose to these indentations have a purpose, looks like I need to further analyze the situation.]

Aeraki places a glowing bubble around the bracelet and it disappears, stored away into his storage system. He picks up the pod to take it to his ship, but the roots start twitching, Aeraki drops it on the sand and leaps away from it. The roots start spreading out, opening evermore, revealing the shimmering core, Aeraki is on guard, he gets a notification from his system that the bracelet was heating up, he pulls it out and lets it fall on the sand. The shimmering core starts glowing intensely, Aeraki continues observing the scenario, the shimmering core starts breaking away, disolving into the wind, as the core continues to dissolve, a pair of wings pops out and spread open, a small yellow-ish rabbit-like creature was inside, in fetal position with its eyes shut, its long prehensile tail wrapped around it, the bracelet stops glowing and Aeraki picks it up, the creature shakes its head and opens its eyes, to the warm sun setting beach, the first thing it sees is Aeraki, staring back at it.

Aeraki:

[Interesting... That was an egg... now the question I must ask is; where did it come from?]

Aeraki takes three steps forward towards the creature, this frightens it and a blast of air hits Aeraki and pushes him back, the creature spreads its wings and flees. Aeraki, gets up and sees it head into the forest.
