Limits.

"You slept for a very long time . It"s good that you woke up . How do you feel?" she said . I finished applying my medicine and responded "Although the damage I sustained was not small, I"m alright now . I can walk and move freely, with some rest and medicine, I should be able to get back to my peak form" .

She nodded her head and said "Good . I have this for you . It might not be a lot, but you can also stay here, for as long as you want . You can also get some supplies, that can be found in Vulture Cliffs . Someone will bring you down, when you are ready" . She handed me a feather, it was the same feather that one of the Avians used, as the storage item .

I decided to ask "Is this storage feather more complicated, than the bags I have?" . She nodded her head and said "Yes, the bags you have, probably don"t have the formation which will decrease the weight of the things inside . Do you want me to explain how the feather works?" . I nodded my head and handed her the feather .

She held it, using her leg and said "You just have to think about retrieving something from the feather and focus on it . If you don"t know what is inside, you can think about retrieving all the things inside, like so" . When she finished speaking, some stuff appeared on the ground .

She then continued "If you want to place things inside, you have to think about the stuff you want to place inside, and focus on the feather" . She again showed me how that works and all the items disappeared . "Wow!" I exclaimed . My bags were not able to do such a thing whatsoever . She said "You can retrieve one or many items, at a time . The same is with placing them inside the feather . The only limitation, besides the s.p.a.ce, is that nothing alive can be stored inside . If you try to place something alive inside, it will die" .

I nodded my head and asked "What about that formation you spoke of? What is that?" . She asked "You don"t know what a formation is?" . I shook my head in response and awaited answer . She said "A formation is a kind of spell, that can be placed on items and even environment . That is how this feather can store things, it"s due to spatial formation . The feather is also special . My feathers can take the strain of a spatial formation . Any ordinary material or item, wouldn"t be able to do so . They would explode the moment you placed a formation on them" .

I immediately wanted to learn such skill, but before I could ask about it, she said "We will not teach you that . There is only one Formation Expert in our ranks . We can"t also share the secrets of our formations with humans . I hope you understand" . I nodded my head and said "It"s true I would like to learn it, but I"m not going to ask for impossible" .

She said "Humans also have Formation Experts . From what I know, all large cities in Human Kingdom, have some Formation Experts . Maybe you can learn from them" . "This is not a bad idea, I will have to search for such an expert, and try to learn about those formations . Those seem to be very useful" I thought, and then asked "What type of weight can this feather carry?" .

The King of Avians responded "Around 2 tonnes of stuff, while it will halve the weight to 1 tonne, due to formation placed inside . It"s also quite st.u.r.dy, but don"t try to destroy it on purpose, just to check how st.u.r.dy it is . Before you ask, the st.u.r.diness is also thanks to a formation" . I nodded my head and received the feather again .

She flew into the air a bit and said "When you are ready to go down, just wave your hand at the swarm . One of the Avians will take you down the cliff" . I nodded my head and she left . I looked at the feather in my hand . "It doesn"t weigh anything at all . I know there is some stuff inside, but it seems like there is nothing in there" I thought . I focused on the feather and thought about taking all the stuff out of it . After my first try, nothing happened . I tried a few more times, and finally succeeded .

All the things, from inside the feather, appeared on the ground . I examined all the things and found that most of the stuff there, were herbs . "I don"t recognise most of these herbs . There are only two, that I do recognise . There is the Calming Flower, as well as the Pareless Seeds" I thought . There were another 4 herbs that I never saw . One that looked like a fruit, but it wasn"t like an apple or peach . It looked weird . The skin was grey and the size of it was similar to that of a plum . It had no smell either . I was tempted to slice it open and check the insides, but I decided not to do that . "I will ask an Avian later on . They should know what this is" I thought .

The other herb that was unknown to me, looked like a needle from a pine tree, but it was dark red in colour and much thicker than a needle from a tree . Another herb I didn"t recognise, looked like a small stone, althought it was green and soft to touch . "It might be a seed of some sort, but I"m not sure at this stage" I thought .

The last herb I never saw, looked like a mushroom and not like a mushroom, at the same time . It didn"t have a stem like all mushrooms . Instead, it looked like a half of a mushroom"s cap and the colour was light brown . The underside of the cap, didn"t look like an usual mushroom either . Instead of gills at the bottom, it had the same structure as the top of the cap . The difference was that, the top was curved, while the bottom was flat .

Besides the herbs, there was another thing inside the feather . This was a set of clothes . One would expect a set made out of feathers, Avians were birds after all . But it wasn"t feathers, it was made of leather . The leather was quite rough, it had a very bad colour as well . It was orange, pale orange to be precise . "Wearing those clothes, would make me stand out like a sore thumb!" I thought .

Besides that, the design was weird as well . It looked simple but menacing in a way . Usually, a set of clothes, would consist of torso, legs and boots . There were also some optional things such as hats, scarfs and whatnot . The set I got, consisted of 6 things . There were two pieces of clothing for torso . The first piece, was a long coat with a hood . The other piece of clothing, was what I could only describe as, a thick shirt that could be worn under the coat . The boots were quite tall, they almost reached to my knees . They looked more like women"s boots, than men"s . The only thing that saved them from being women"s boots, was their size and lack of hills . The sole was pretty much flat .

The pants were quite thick and long . Supposedly, they could cover the boots . Or alternatively, it was possible tucked them inside the boots . Besides those 4 obvious items, there were two more . Gloves, that exposed the fingers . The gloves looked almost like the ones, I had for fist fighting . They were quite plain and had no armour other than the rough thick leather . The gloves were simple looking, but of course, they were pale orange in colour . The last item from that set, was a long and tubular piece of cloth . I had no idea, what it was supposed to be used as? "It can"t be a hat, both ends are opened . Is it some kind of armband? Nah, it"s too big to fit an arm… Maybe a legband? If such a thing exists?" I thought .

I didn"t really know, what to do with those clothes . The colour was appalling and easily noticeable . They didn"t seem to be comfortable either . "What am I supposed to do with them? I guess they gave me something as I was nearly but naked, due to the explosion in the tunnel . Who knows, maybe I will need them someday, a set of clothes that is clean, can always be used" . The sizes seemed to be alright as well . I placed the set of clothes inside the feather, along with the herbs . "Time to go down and explore this place . I also need to ask about those herbs, maybe they can explain that clothing to me as well" I thought and waved my hand at the swarm .You slept for a very long time . Its good that you woke up . How do you feel? she said . I finished applying my medicine and responded Although the damage I sustained was not small, Im alright now . I can walk and move freely, with some rest and medicine, I should be able to get back to my peak form . She nodded her head and said Good . I have this for you .
