One of the most interesting encounters after he returned to the Origin Expanse was to meet the Elemental Empress once again. The large underground hall had developed into a proper home for the Elementals and the first batches of elemental crystals could be harvested soon. 

Zeroa jumped at Michael and she coated him in her mythical flames. It was great that her flames didn't burn him, otherwise, her excitement would have turned him into a pile of ash. Given his natural fire resistance, the mythical flames of his tamed monster kept him warm. That was it.

[You're back! Finally! I was already getting worried. You never stayed away from your territory this long!] Zeroa shouted in his mind, inflicting a mild headache.

Michael smiled lightly.

"Your society is expanding rapidly. Looks like you're working very hard. Good job, Zeroa!" Michael praised the Elemental Empress, patting her lightly.
