"Thats a common one, along with having your Qi save your life, come out when its needed. Mine showed itself the moment I gave up and decided to die of starvation."

"I never would have thought that giving up would unlock something like that."
The concept just seemed so foreign to him. He couldn't imagine just deciding to give up and die. Being in such a situation that it would be the only play. It must have been hell.

"Its not a common move to make."

"I would imagine more often than not it would lead to death. I would wager in that, you got lucky."

Shion would nod in agreement.
"I'd say if I am to be teaching you and being your body guard that enough instruction for the day? Unless you have questions I'd rather you asked while you showed me around so I can get a feel for the environment."
Shion would look around.
"Unless there is going to be more terraforming?"

"Which I should probably fix."
He said looking at the mess he had made with a frown. Kneeling down and pushing his hands into the stone he lowered and leveled the ground. It was a lot easier than the breaking since he was only moving it once, but it was still a large area, and pretty tiring. Once it was done he would grab another hunk of rock and he would munch on it as he motioned for Shion to follow him.
"Well this is around what used to be the boarder between our lands. I am assuming you know the God territory area fairly well. So let me show you around Dragon territory."
He'd start with the bank base.
"If you have questions feel free to ask."

"Is this a final stand base? A bank and its vault would have easily defendable and fortified locations... And I see the mark of the Earth Dragon more than the others here."

"This would be one of the first bases I took in our expansion. I put up the bank as our head quarters for that very reason. Though with it's proximity to the boarder it likely would not serve as a last line of defense but rather a first line of defense. With the ability to turtle in case we were overrun to buy reinforcements time to reach us."
So not quite the same, but they were thinking along the same paths. A bank wasn't a poor place to make a stand all things considered. It was better than dying in the streets or in a random house or office building.

Shion would nod.
"A small bit of psychological warfare as well. An enemy that runs into something this heavy early, would suspect even better later on."

"This is not to say that our other bases are not well defended. But one is wise to make the outer wall as hard as one can to watch the enemy smash against it like waves against the tide."

Shion was impressed.
"Lets move on."
The day would likely go just like this.

Mathew would spend the day showing him around their lands. The defensible positions. Their operation in general. Stopping to send a few Dragonlings out to push back his appointments for the days. He had learned that he needed to learn . Which was exciting. He was so used to feeling like he knew so much. To find out that there was still a world out there to master.
It was refreshing, and it put a spring in his step that he had been lacking for quite some time. His wheels turning inside his head. So many things to try and master. Some he had seen already, but did not know how to reach those peaks. And others he had not yet thought of. But he would, oh he would.
