Going further, the 3 Ynnub groups were just farming and living in a communal tribe. Now there were looters, farmers and adventurers. It was pretty good for the tribe they lived in. I did not want to influence them too much. It would be too much if I started to rule by decree and did full on division of labor. I could just advise them to do some things. We watched them expand until they grew to the size of a village from the tower. They were doing pretty well. When a Player came by she explored the area by herself. The white Ekans attacked her, but she was able to kill him. That was more than fine with me. He had outlived his usefulness. The Player went to the wells in each of the villages. The adventurers were gone so there was no real opposition. The Player fought some of the ones that caught her. To my surprise, she fucked a male brown Ynnub she laid out flat. When she then took them with her, I was more than a bit surprised. As a Sage, it was not my place to interfere unless it was a Devil. If it was part of a quest or personal exploration, it was totally okay. I did my crazy shit too.
Having more Players come by might be more interesting. It could also be more problematic as well. There did not seem to be a Devil in my area. If it was a good server, I knew that there was only a matter a time before they got to where I was. The plot would certainly kick off with more good and exciting interactions between Players and the other races. When more members of the demonoid races started coming, they had a lot of things on them. They either wanted to trade or loot and pillage the Ynnub's emerging villages. The Tac packs and Ekans nomads were especially rough on them. They were able to keep humans at bay. Going against Tacs one on one was tough but it was possible for them to win. Iron was just not enough to pierce the natural armor that was the scales of the Ekans. They were simply no match for them. They came to me for help, but I had nothing for them. "If you can find a harder or sharper metal, you can smelt it down at the forge. I will tell you how." I told them. Giving them infinite iron was a big stretch to craft with. They went out into the wilds and found some.
It was a collection of metals of all types. Some enemies had weapons and some places had some tools lying around. Taking them was only bad if the owners came back for them or to seek revenge. I was pleased and was able to let things go on by themselves. I took Epsilon aside and brought him to my room. I traced my fingers over his back. He smirked and said "I was wondering when you would want to fuck. All these horny Ynnub had been getting to me too." "I needed to make sure that they were okay. If I have to be the Sage of the area, I might as well make it not a shithole." I told him. He nodded and pushed me onto my bed. Epsilon climbed onto my lap with his back facing me. "I know you love our back. How pretty is it today?" he asked smugly. "The same as always." I mocked. He looked over his shoulder. "Huh? Wanna say that again?" he said. He looked really testy and annoyed. "You're back is straight and pretty everyday and I'm lucky to have a strong guy like you." "Damn lucky answer." he said. "Not every day you find a guy who can rock 2 swords as well as a skirt." I said.
A silence hung in the air. Just as I thought that I fucked up, I heard him mumble "I've never felt this with others. How do I know you don't have a fetish for the Black Ops members? It's not like you like 'my' back. You said the exact same shit to Zeta." I just raised an eyebrow. "I love how cute you can be when you don't even realize it." I said. His face snapped back to me. "Cute!? You think I'm cute!" he exclaimed in surprise. "Well, Limerick Jill certainly knew how to dress you in interesting ways. You do realized that it was an odd choice, right? I mean even on the island, not even other Protectors wore the same uniform as you." I explained. He rolled his eyes. "The new uniform was unique to show our power and enhance our magic abilities." he argued with crossed arms. I wrapped my arms around him and pressed my forehead against his back. "If you want to think that, you can." He stilled and I asked if he was okay. He got off of me and sighed. "Damn. I don't feel in the mood anymore. I'm going to go to the white tribe for a little bit." he said. I messed up after all. I decided to follow him.
