The construction of the camp was finished, but the Engineering Corps wouldnt get any breaks. There was yet more work to do.

The only issue is that these engineers arent scientists or mages. They're given a job, and they fulfill every single aspect of it. They've been all around Coronado, designing buildings, forts, roads, and then build them out to their finest details. Testing or casting spells arent apart of their resumes. But they will have to do anyway.

Their job? Find a way to ignite the portal. We've heard of lit portals before, like in Kheta Kedet, and from what we've heard, they consist of a rectangle of obsidian. We've seen something similar to this at the Yumata portal. So, the engineers developed a schematic, and I ordered a shipment of obsidian to be delivered by the Rangers, because for some odd reason, this portal lacked it.

In the mean time, I admired the view. From our position, the ocean met the shoreline, before the ground swiftly rose to meet us. The road to Calvara was in sight, and the sun was setting behind the ocean. I sunk into thought for a moment. What would this portal reveal? Would it end the world, like Queen Semet believes? Or would it bring upon us a new golden age? Maybe something in between? Only time would tell.
