" This is the top!"
Giant branches, glistening green leaves, floating wooden structures decorated with sparkling golden lights around it came into view.
Amongst this, Fairies appeared to be moving about. Some went about a structure busying around, others conversing amongst themselves, and others moving from one structure to another.
These wooden structures appeared to be at least three times taller than I am and I'm pretty confident that I'm a man not less an average height, the size wasn't much either as it was just a bit larger than Frederick who was the largest amongst us. They were just simply towers from a Fairy's point of view.
A few of them zoomed over to welcome Zephyr and wanted to chatter but it seemed that they were put off immediately as they stopped approaching and went on with their business.
Unlike down below that appeared very bright even when it was night time, here was a bit dark with illuminating lights surrounding the buildings and from the Fairies brightening our close field of vision. We could see the dark sky up above with clouds soaring over irregularly, a few stars appeared already hinting us that we weren't that deep into the night. The cold breeze whistled and brushed through us sending quivers down our spine.
I instinctively brought my two arms wrapping my body around to provide heat. Others did the same as well.
" Miss Zephyr, is there a warming spell you can use there? It's too cold around here" I thought up still hovering around under the guise of her wind spell, shivering and rubbing my body desperately.
" Ohhh that" She stopped and turned to us.
" Flames hear thee, manifest and soothe my target!" she said and wave her hands towards us, Instantly, a warming flaming aura coated our body and drove away the cold feeling we felt. it was a bit strange though, the gusts of wind at our feet and around our legs made no effort to disrupt the flame, instead, it co-existed with it. By the way, the mind spell placed on us linking our minds to Zephyr was active so I could tell what she said, I understood at the least.
With all that done, we started to zoom forward steadily following Zephyr's lead. A short while later, I and the others could tell where we were moving to. We were approaching the very center of the huge crown and as we got closer, the light from that center became more and more obvious. leaves gathered at that area so I couldn't quite tell but I was sure whatever was there has to be very bright seeing as a vivid light escaped it.
'This is super stressing'
' Undoubtedly, we are meeting another powerhouse'
