Madam Dara's previously scaled, reptilian visage now brimmed much differently, healthy vigorous, supple tanned olive skin supported the two large gemstone-like yellow slanted eyes and those rosy red, round kissable lips of hers.
The tinges of matte black straight silky strands of hair cascaded below and peeked out from beneath the hood's protective cover she was still wearing, albeit it was no longer baggy, but looked fit, following the bountiful curves of her alluring figure.
Whilst Pyre still more-or-less seemed to retain her reptilian, [Draconic Skink] origin, for Madam Dara, she no longer resembled anything of her previous self besides her hourglass figure which was more emphasized now.
A fiery red, vibrant crimson saturated flock of hair peaked from Pyre's hood, just like with Madam Dara, she too now supported a head full of hair, despite still being a reptilian. Her eyes, had a darker, almost orange tint, glowing in the dark depths of her hood, looking mysterious and strangely, flickering with an unknown power.
As they kept looking at themselves, trying to take in and get a feel for the changes their brethren in the back were looking wide-eyed and completely shocked by what they just witnessed. Their two friends evolved and transformed into something new, something… never seen before. They could also feel the tremendous power brimming inside the previously fragile-looking frames…
A smirk gradually stretched across Aiden's elderly face as he looked at the shocked expression of his captains and his soon-to-be official minion and servant, Tak as they gazed at the two mature females' new bodies. At the same time, he shelved the notifications that kept ringing in the corners of his eyes, he had one last task to accomplish after all.
Tak was completely baffled and flabbergasted as he bore witness to a scene that defied his logic and understanding. From a simple touch of this strange robed figure's hands, both females have suddenly reached the breakthrough for their cores and evolved! Shedding their previous simple [Draconic Skink] origins, now both looked something new, unique, and exotic.
Still, knowing that there were several more rounds to complete, he stepped over the rest of the figures and repeated the same process with each and every one of them. One by one, all of Aiden's captains swore their loyalty, knelt in front of their new lords, and accepted their blessings one after another.
Captain Eori, Draghan's Elite, Pyre, Madam Dara,
As Aiden repeated the same process by touching the top of their heads and whilst revolving his own [Soul Power], he transferred over several wisps of it into their bodies, each of them soon was basked in the same golden light, as their cores reached the breaking point and leveled up to a higher realm, initiating the guided evolution process for their hosts.
The four male captain's bodies shined brightly, as their height grew, each turning from their previous meter-tall small frame into a hulking giant, each towering massively even above their lord and master. Muscles upon muscles stretched the woolen cloth of their robes to their limit, causing it to burst and tear apart around their arms, unable to withstand the pressure any longer.
Their scales grew thicker, more defined, protecting their owners like a scaled chain mail. Along with their frames, their tails also grew, plopping down on the ground as they curled behind their bodies.
They all looked somewhat similar to the sinister cannibalistic ex-general that they feared with all their soul before. From skinks, they now stepped into the realm of Sauruses, fearsome musclebound predators of the murky swamps and mires.
In the end, only one person remained, now looking much timider and even somewhat afraid of what was to come. Would he also turn into one of these monsters? Would he end up different? Would he even receive the same blessing? Does he truly deserve it even?
Still, Tak had already decided, he could not and most importantly, WOULD not turn back any more. Whoever this man was, and whatever his powers may be, he has already stepped on that metaphorical boat.
Tak, the Guard Captain of the Temple Guards and now a faithful servant of this man known as 'Aiden Voragon' have gone down to the ground on both knees and began to kowtow to his newest master. With a last sigh, he cast away the last of his doubts and fears. Gradually both his mind and heart cleared out, there was no hesitation anymore.
Aiden gave an affirming nod, accepting the skink captain's show of respect. He placed his right hand on top of his head, and just like before, he began transferring the energy, revitalizing and hopefully, forcing an evolution for him too.
He once again revolved his thinning reserves of [Soul Power], focusing on it as he guided a thin strand of it along with the continued stream and focused on the changes he could feel.
He focused on its route, as it entered into the middle-aged skink man's body, spreading all around finding each crevice, each hidden corner, whilst also making its way towards his center, the already hungry-looking Core beside his heart.
He watched as the current first began to circulate around the crystal, looking almost as how the planets would orbit around their stars. it was an interesting sight, different from the previous few times, it looked as if it was waiting for a final order to begin its transforming process. With a thought, Aiden gave the order, focusing his mind to make sure he wouldn't miss anything.
The energy, as if reacting to the mental command, stopped for a moment and rejoined the current of the other energy that continuously flowed, seeped into the crystal's depth. Just like all the previous cases, a small light slowly began to shine, as a miniature seed was formed. However, this time, thanks to Aiden's own energy, it was growing at a much higher pace, reaching the size of a bean in a matter of seconds.
From the outside, the now evolved group of exotic looking company of Aiden's captains and now faithful servants were looking at their newest brethren with eager and rapt attention, watching as the small, fragile frame of the little skink was soon absorbed by the now-familiar looking golden luster, shielding and engulfing him entirely.
Just like before it was a gradual process. At first, it was merely a faint light, a weak glow that surrounded his body like an opaque, magical barrier. Soon, however, the intensity of the protective layer of light began its rapid ascent. In just a few more blinks' of time, the entire frame of the small reptilian was now shielded from prying eyes, nothing but a vague transforming, growing silhouette could be made out if one squinted his or her eyes and decided to dare the blindness.
The silhouette gradually grew, reaching higher inch by inch, easily surpassing the two females, yet its climb did not stop there… it was growing further!
