The news helped many people become more focused on the major project needed. New dragons, wyverns, and members of any race were going to need space. So many of the adults within Genesis had read the plans for development.
They understood that the lands set aside within the Genesis alliance were large enough for many years of growth. Whoever, the world was also larger now. There was potential to spread out as the races unified and as many more people found new paths to grow and develop.
What would happen when the farms needed greater space? What would happen when the crafting guild needed more space to safely test magical and physical items which would cause danger to the citizens? What of the mages who ascended any normal magic known to the basic people?
All of these questions and even highlighted by the information guild which published the news and documents for the people to read.
