21 Celestial (2/2)

It aided that the Vulpes, now Celestials, instinctually felt disassociated with the three-dimensional normal space after surpassing it. They were initially very patriotic, and if Ivan had tried to turn them against their own country, they would without a doubt rebel. But by guiding them correctly and having them accept their own new race, Celestial, Ivan could take hold of that patriotic spirit and redirect it towards 'their race'.

Ivan led the people as they collected all the four-dimensional materials left unused and descended into subspace. Everyone began to feel full of energy the deeper they went, just as they had read in the information booklets. They gazed in admiration towards the landmasses deep within subspace and the beauty the beheld, ensuring they don't forget to keep an eye out for any predators.

The landmass Ivan chose to settle down upon was one of the larger ones in the endless chain of islands. This landmass was about about as big as a small country, and had a plethora of forests, swamps, stony mountains, and sharp cliffs covering it.

The group of Celestials descended within the center of a particularly large forest, beside a large energy river that flowed through. This would give them the best protection as no creatures moving through the space above would be able to easily spot them.

Ivan gathered all the hunters together and separated them into ten groups of thirty. Each group had a single commander who was in charge of guiding their actions and maintaining unity.

Eoth Tilmer, a Celestial just past his prime with a will of steel, and the first person to successfully complete the evolution into a four-dimensional being, was the commander for the first group.

Yale Tygri, a young hunter who relied on his keen instincts to stalk his prey, commanded the second group.

Loreine Ptoline, a rather pretty female Celestial with brown hair cropped at her shoulders, deep red eyes and a fondness for playing with her long ears, was in charge of the third group.

Reyline Ester, a man despite his soft, long hair and feminine visage, was appointed the commander of the fourth group.

Timmeril Han, another man with long reddish-brown hair and seemed to never smile or laugh, commanded the fifth group.

Illian Wester, a man with a rare shade of black hair, commanded the sixth group.

Meryl Gynny, a young woman in her prime with short cropped hair and a masculine behaviour, was in charge of the seventh group.

Jasper Bermuse, a middle-aged Celestial with slightly greying short hair, commanded the eighth group.

Laq Zeter, a younger man just reached adulthood who had a reddish-brown short hair and amber eyes.

Vivian Firelda, a young woman with a rare tawny blond hair and gave the definition to the metaphor of foxes being cunning, was put in charge of the final tenth group.

These ten people weren't just anyone, but those who stood out the most, and were recognized as the strongest, during their initial training period.

The first seven hunting groups were set out into the surrounding forest to scout the location. Each group also had a land prospector to them in order to search for any nearby minerals.

Cavel Quint was a master builder and directed most of the remaining people to find some trees to slowly cut down and supply some basic building materials. He also had two hunting groups assigned to him for protecting the people.

The scientist began hoarding around Mazur in excitement as they discussed theories and speculations on subspace particle physics and the implications it would make on the existing quantum theory.

”It's all so fresh and exciting,” Iris hummed with a smile and leaned her head on Ivan's shoulder.
