Chapter 80: Sparring The Construct, And The Warrior
The morning veil had long lifted, revealing a clear, sharpened sky above Vaingall.
Below, activity stretched from one horizon to another.
A hundred Blessed Limbo Tier Divine Constructs now moved throughout Vaingall and beyond. Their presence had become normalized among the Clatur Tribe,
Some were stationed to assist in the Clatur Tribe’s infrastructure, from overseeing kiln operations to maintaining subterranean aqueducts fueled by the local sigils.
Others had spread further, operating in calculated harmony to spread the faith of Kivas Chariot to farflung regions, or just there sent to gather information.
In tighter configurations, small bands of Constructs ventured into distorted zones to retrieve rare Curio. Others engaged rogue Voidlings, tracked hostile inhabitants, and documented areas untouched by Samael before.
Several Constructs had been deployed to hunt for minor factions or vagabond forces outside Vaingall. A handful had been assigned a complex process to replicate Samael’s skill acquisition patterns that she possessed when she was still an Endless Dragon, grinding out low-risk progression loops and mimicking exposure routines to farm potential abilities.

There might be a major difference between the romance in Fathomi and that of Earth, but Kivas surely began opening her heart more and more to Samael, no matter how small the gesture and interaction was.
