Amber was nervous. This dwarf and dog-girl have come into the mine, one is a prime and the lives of her citizens are on the line. She didn’t know if she could trust them, but what choice did she have? By the time she got those workers free on her own, they’d suffocate from the lack of oxygen, and if she attempted to rush it, she would collapse the cave.
“The lives of those people are our first concern. I will talk with you after that is dealt with.” Amber said sitting down on the ground criss-crossed opposite of Amaterasu and focused her energy. She hadn’t done this as often, the aspect was a weird magic to her. Helpful yes, but still weird.
“I understand, that is why I came to help. Urist, if you would, let us know where we should put these metal beams once we summon them.” She stated as the two of them began to focus on their support beams.
“Aye, we should start over here.” With the special skill sets of a dwarf and the work of two primes, the cave was soon stabilized enough to begin extracting the dust crystal. Amaterasu placed her hand on the crystal, but Amber quickly grabbed her wrist.
“Allow me, I have plans for this later. A dust crystal this size would be completely beneficial to Atlas in a way I can’t ignore.” Amaterasu was about to state that if they both worked on dissolving it with their prime powers, it would be removed much more expeditiously, but it wasn’t worth arguing over. It took Amber nearly ten minutes, but soon the obstruction was dislodged. The miners trapped behind it began crawling through the opening in wall as soon as they were made able.
“Everyone go home, you’ve earned the week off. Spend it with your families.” The faunus said as they all funneled out of the cave they’d been trapped in for hours. Once they were all out, the three rescuers followed suit. Amber and Amaterasu made small conversation as they exited.
“So, what happened in there?” The Kami asked, gesturing at the mine.
“My miners were working on extracting raw minerals, iron and such, when they hit a vein of dust. With no one experienced in the substance was there to identify it, they tried to extract some of it to bring back to us. I’m sure they won’t do it again. Raw dust is pretty volatile and dangerous, when it’s used by someone so inexperienced.” Amber explained, leading the group back to Atlas.
“It’s an...explosive mineral?” Amaterasu looked a little dumbfounded; Urist even more.
“Yeah, harnesses the elements in ways like magic, only it’s more like alchemy.”
“So, now we ‘ave magic sproutin’ from the ground?” Urist asked himself with a slight facepalm. He should have expected it, as weird of universe this place was.
“You had something you wanted to talk about?” Amber asked.
“Oh, yes. When we get back to town, I will explain in depth.”
