After healing Emby back, Ruin suggested that they continue on their way. Most of the elements that would help with good living was acquired. All that he would need now was a Nature Elemental, and perhaps a Wind Elemental. That way, the soil would be good to grow crops, and wind would abundant in the hot summers.
"Oh, before you go, I couldn't help but notice your blade...", Ignite mentioned. "Huh? Oh yeah, that last battle...", Ruin replied, looking at it. More than half of it was broken, so it wasn't any good to as a weapon, or a good defense. "You know, Fire Elementals are very good at blacksmithing, since we can handle being in the heat while we work. Would like to leave it here for repairs"? "You mean it"? "Of course! It's the least I can do for you. You go on your way, I'll have one of my men deliver it to you", Ignite explained. Ruin was confused. How would Ignite's men know where he was?? "Oh, Fire Elementals can sense one another's fire", Emby told him. " All they have to do is find me, and they find you"! After some quick goodbyes, the trio left the village in pursuit of the next Elemental tribe. "Ruin? I believe we should head to the Nature Elementals next", Aquaria suggested. "You think so?", he asked. "Yes. Generally, water is a vital requirement for almost everything, especially plant life. Nature Elementals always get along with us, and we with them. I think that would be a great move on our part", she explained.
That sounded like a good idea, so Ruin and Emby followed Aquaria into a lush forest. The trees were very tall, some even had flowers growing off of them! There were also scrumptious fruits growing from the trees as well, and the grass tame, not a weed to be seen. Ruin and Emby marveled at the splendor. "Ruin, can you believe this?? This place is awesome!", Emby exclaimed. "I'll say! This is amazing!", Ruin agreed. "Oh, we're almost to the Nature Kingdom!", Aquaria called to them. They watched as she parted some grass, and sprinkled some of her pure water on the ground. "Quickly! Come to me!", she instructed. Curious and anxious, they ran to her. About two seconds later, a HUGE leaf sprouted under them! "What's happening, Aquaria???", Emby asked. She just smiled, as the leaf suddenly shot through the forest, dodging the trees seemingly like close-calls! "I-is this supposed to happen!?", Ruin exclaimed, clinging on to the leaf. "Don't worry, this is the Water Elemental's path to the kingdom! It was specially made for us to get there like this!", Aquaria explained, as she sat calmly. "I think I left my eyes back there!!!", Emby yelled, holding on with his eyes tightly shut.
After a short time, the leaf slowed down, and rested near some enormous gates. "This my friends, is the gates to the Nature Kingdom", Aquaria announced, as she stepped off. Shakily, they stepped off as well. Aquaria walked up to the gates, and lifted a piece of the wood on the gate. She placed her hand inside, and poured some water inside of the section. Shortly after, the gates rumbled open. Needless to say, the town was very beautiful, and Nature Elementals were busily wandering around. Ruin knew that in this place, he would find one Nature Elemental to ask to help him. And with Aquaria's help, surely it'd be a success!
