I Shall Evolve Everything

"Here" pulling out the warehouse blueprint I hand it over to Darwin.

"Thank you" A brightening of his soul shows me how grateful he is.

Is it weird that I can tell emotions by the soul, I don't know but what I do know is how grateful I am to be able to see the emotions of my beloved.

…

As I follow Darwin around holding his hand as he goes to find a good place for the warehouse that I had given him, I reflect on the past few days of my life.

The first sight of Darwin's color, or what I can now identify as his soul, was the first sign of what was to come.

The beauty of that soul was breathtaking and took all of my soul.

I felt an unknown emotion bloom in my heart.

For as long as I have been, there was nothing but blackness and an overwhelming feeling of loneliness.

No matter how much love and kindness I was shown, I knew that it was all pity.

Even my parents and my siblings with their ever encompassing love were overshadowed by the pity I could feel flowing off of them.

But when I saw that soul it blew me away.

For the first time in my life there was a light at the end of the tunnel.

I knew that if I wanted something, even if I wanted to just stare all day that that soul would be there.

Darwin may not know it yet but his soul is deeply connected to me.

At every moment I was near the soul was pulling him towards me.

I knew at that very moment that he was mine and I his.

…

A stop in movement brought me from my melancholy.

"Here's a good place"

Using my new sensory abilities I could feel what Darwin felt.

That was how I knew that he was pointing towards a plot of land.

It was a testament to his trust in me that my aether was not rejected by his body at all.

Earlier I would not have thought anything of it as it had felt natural but apparently anyone with pathways have a natural aether resistance that activates in response to a foreign flow of aether.

…

While we were waiting for the building to construct itself after Darwin had used the blueprint I checked on my status.

What greeted me shocked me.

[Name: Aoif]

[Territory tier/level 8/9]

[Personal strength: Tier8/1]

[Skills: Aether Location]

[Allows the user of this skill to use aether as a substitute for their sense of touch,*****,*******, *****, and *****]

[Talent: Soul Sight*]

[Soul Sight: An evolved version of the tier 3 talent sight which allows the user to see the world in order of potential along with the emotions and attachments of souls]

"Something wrong, Aoif"

"Later" I responded, there was no reason to disturb him while we were developing his territory.

"Ok" there was a concerned look in his eyes but I was able to convey that it was not important at the moment.

…

"Delta" I call,

"Yes, Aoif?"

"Help melt down the extra iron ore into refined steel."

Nodding her head Delta goes to follow her instructions.

Turning my sight back onto Darwin, he understands my intentions.

Darwin brings out 2 bronze aether cores from his stock of them.

One at a time Darwin evolves the cores.

Going through the evolution, the cores are quickly evolved from bronze tier into silver tier.

…

After Darwin had deposited the newly evolved aether cores into the newly built warehouse, he guided me over to the grove of ash trees where the nymph Melia lived.

What greeted me was shocking. Instead of the monochrome gray that every living being has for a soul, the workers that were being birthed from the trees actually glowed a dull green bronze.

Of course they were nothing compared to my beloved but it was still a shock to know that there were so many humans of potential under Darwin.

Leading me to the residence of Melia, I was quickly overwhelmed by all the presences that were all trying to smother me with motherly affection.

It seems that the nymph's that Darwin had summoned were all stuck in a perpetually motherly mood.

I hid even closer to Darwin. Instead of only standing next to him holding his hand, I instead pulled myself to his harm hiding myself in his embrace.

Sensing my discomfort I could feel the glare that he had weathered upon the Nymph's that had caused me that discomfort.

Soon enough, without the distraction of the nymph's we had ended up in Melia's house.

…

The discussions went over my head.

It wasn't that I could not understand what they were saying, it was just that Darwin was especially bold today.

Instead of us sitting in separate seats like we normally would, he instead plopped me down in his lap.

The whole meeting with Melia I was entirely focused on Darwin.

The only annoying thing about it was that sometimes I could hear a faint "Ara" "Ara" coming from Melia despite how much I was trying to ignore her and snuggle close to Darwin.

…

By the time we were done with the meeting, Delta had found us.

"Aoif, Darwin" She greeted us.

"I have refined the steel that you needed"

With the steel being produced there was nothing missing for the construction of the research building that Darwin wanted to have built.

​ …

Entering the research building was weird.

All my sensors were giving me increased outputs.

The usual data that I could sense was being refined further than what I could do on my own.

I wanted to study this phenomenon further but orders were orders.

Aoif had ordered me to research the turrets and other technological defenses that we could make with our current resources and so I would.

However with the amount of resources we had even if I downgraded the blueprints I had to account for the quality of materials we currently had, we would only be able to make a few.

So instead of doing that I focused my processing power on making blueprints for efficient supply lines and automated refineries.

The supply line technologies would increase our currently limited resources and the refineries would solve the low grade of resources we currently have.

Finishing with the planning I got to work.
