Days passed by as Evelyn and Rehni waited around the magic crystal deposit they had secured.
They were unable to do anything but secure the area until Bylur returned with the specialized equipment they would need to start mining the magic crystals.
During the time he was gone they did actually have to face some probing attacks from a couple other powers that resided in the desert.
It seemed that news of the brass jackals falling had managed to spread out to the nearby areas and some of the other beast groups that ruled the desert were seeing how secure the burrowing owls' new acquisition was.
Thankfully with Evelyn's leading the defense they easily wiped out any sort of attack and sent a clear message that trying to take the magic crystal deposit would be a harsh and costly battle.
Still, it was not until the sixth day that Bylur returned to the Velinis Desert.
