"That was so weird…" Walker was still caught up on what he was thinking. Ignus and Remey had been acting odd, but Walker knew it was such a unique experience that he couldn't do much. However, he had managed to walk himself toward where he knew Terron was working. 

This was also a good chance to check things out underground. The main reason, was that he had not done so. 

The underground travel and merchant route was not yet complete. It was just connected and the road itself had not been fully reinforced or polished. This meant that the further stretches had more risk of collapse and the older sections had been cleaned up for safety and appearance. 

But theta Walker really wanted to look at was the earthen and underground area that had been carved out for those that wished to live underground. This was also the palace that would connect the earth dragon territories when they were ready to move in. 

Surprisingly, Walker could sense that the mage tower's buffs also reached the underground. It was an important note to make. The area above this was just a lot of work oriented storage or housing. But that was already planned to change since the dwarves wanted a well lit and open area for those that traveled to come out to. A few elves had already been contracted to be able to create a large garden to welcome travelers.

The good thing with this, was that there would be a screening and security stop set up within the travel tunnel. Calling it a tunnel was still making it sound too small, but that was fine. These multiple security stops would protect Genesis from any monsters that broke in to the area or the merchants that brought bad items inside. Not everything was safe to have in a large population. 

The crafting of the stairs alone had been made very well. There were ramps or stairs. Both were made for the differences in travelers. Carts could come easily up ramps that would bring them to the surface, while those walking could easily climb the stairs. 

What Walker noticed most was the high degree of crafting skill and magic usage. The earth skulls used were all able to shape the earth and condense it to strengthen it. But the addition of sand on top to make the surface more abrasive meant that even in the colder months, it would be safer to walk down. This was very fine tuned crafting. 

From there, stone had been carved to make railings along with an ornate set of walls and ceilings. This was just a showcase of quality. But when Walker looked at it, he realized that he was in some of the stone carvings. The records of Genesis being built and the meetings held. It made his heart feel that much more warm than before. But it also enhanced his determination to prepare for an upcoming battle. 

Speaking with Terron and the king of the deep were two steps that were needed for him to be able to do so. They were powerful figures that could assist greatly in what was happening right now within genesis and what was to happen soon. 

Before he got all the way down the stairs, he was noticed by a few dwarven workers. They had been polishing some of the more ornate carvings while adding colored paints. This was a very good addition since the entire underground tunnel was going to be dull and dark without it. This greatly made the environment easier to travel while showcasing even higher levels of skill to those venturing front he dwarven city. 

"Sir Walker, what brings you here?" The question was simple but the workers that gathered all looked excited. Having some prominent figures visiting meant that they could show off their hard work. 

"Well, I wanted to speak with Terron and the king of the deep caves. But I realized that just rushing to find them would waste a good chance to see how it was all coming together. I am very impressed. Using the colors on the stone to help brighten the road will definitely make everyone traveling happier. A good way to keep kids occupied too." it was easy to understand that such interesting designs and colors would captivate unruly children during travel. Parents could save years on their life. 

"It was just an idea to show off our skills. But we are glad to hear it! We know where our king is. He just returned to check the next batch of supplies that will be used to reinforce the seventh mark tunnel section. Please follow us." The dwarf that spoke seemed to be somewhat of a leader among the painters and carvers. 

"We chose to start with the building of Genesis here and then the history of meeting heroes such as yourself in our home city. In the middle, we will have the events of when the heroes and dwarven race met. It will be an ideal way to showcase the history that led to the greatest tunnel ever built by dwarven and human hands. Well, now, many other races." the dwarf laughed while pointing over at a large selection of building materials. Mostly metal beams. 

The metals were forged with high heat to ensure that they could be made tougher. It was a very clear level of skill that Walker knew he did not possess. He could learn it, but it would take years to be able to handle such detailed and important materials. 

"Look at what came down to the dirt." the king of the deep noticed Walker right away. He had an eye out for the slightest changes. He had been a king that explored and mined the deepest and monster infested caves. It made sense he would be more vigilant than others. 

Compared to the first meeting, Walker was surprised by how different the king of the deep was. He was less hands on and focused on directing many younger dwarves. He had learned to let them fail and grow instead of jumping in to everything. That didn't diminish his capabilities though. He was a king for many reasons. His quality of skills easily made him one. 

"I came to see how things were going. Plus, I was chatting with one of the painters and carver team leaders. I like that we are showing off the events that formed Genesis here. It makes it more important to everyone." The king of the deep smiled softly before refocusing. He enjoyed hearing the good things as anyone would after working hard.

"But I also wanted to see what the thoughts were on dwarven golems. I know that the dragon golem already managed to get a small following of elemental spirits. They are also working with the golem builders to create more unique golems that can be controlled by elemental spirits." this had been in the back of Walker's mind. Something that could massive help the war efforts d the defenses of Genesis as a whole. 

"I expected others to come and bother me about that. But because of that one golem, I have had to drag four master golem builders and their entire teams to Genesis. They are in the area that Terron carved out for them. Their workshops are already producing multiple monster and animal inspired golems that the elemental spirits may or may not accept." 

"From the sounds of it, you have a decent challenge. The elemental spirits might be a little picky. I know they are strong though. I expect that they will be a race sooner than later. They just need to be woken up and accepted by the others." 

"That's a guarantee. Those angels need to get down to earth and realize that elemental spirits are not here to harm them. I am willing to bet a year's worth of ore just for that to happen. They will be a recognized race and gain better communication when they are accepted by angels too." This was a going belief among the dwarves who had learned of their own foolishness when it came to elemental spirits and their failings when making items with them instead of for them. 

"Then I guess I should take your side on that too. But I will come look at some of the dwarven golems being made. I might learn something. I also want to come and see what new things there are." This was more Walker acting like a curious kid than anything. But no one would be unhappy to see it.

"Then drag yourself behind me and let's go bother those grumpy smiths." The king of the deep made sure to joke a bit but didn't appear to actually joke since it was a sure thing that everyone working on the dwarven golems would be frustrated at being interrupted. But that was life.
