บท 1681: 1681. Growing Through Lightning

"Lightning!" The shout was from those that saw the distant flashes getting closer. It was the warning that more of them would feel the small zaps that were currently hitting them now and them. It was still not enough to cause anyone damage, however, it was worrisome. 

Walker felt that the air was becoming more energetic. The manas were changing faster and faster around him and Alma as they worked to maintain the newly risen wild bull kelp cage around the ship's formation. It was of the utmost importance that this remained. 

Many people saw this, especially the mages. They knew that they had to maintain Waker and Alma's safety. That was why the ship formation began to change. The king of the surface had made the ships come together a little more with a focus on keeping everyone steady. The cage was their protection while the ship with Walker and Alma was the new center for the formation.
