"Can we go now?" Guntu asked carefully.
"Yes, we should. I understand why Ghastorix asked for me now. I mustn't be late." Hadrick said then it pulled itself out of the ground.
The forest began to rumble. The shaking earth made the trees in the forest sway about. Birds and animals ran about looking for shelter. It looked like an earthquake was passing through the forest. The city above didn't notice anything. Its foundation is not anchored to the ground but on top of arrays so the vibration from below wasn't transmitted to them.
The ten origin gods waited patiently as Hadrick pulled itself up. Some of the short trees scattered throughout the forest sank into the ground and were pulled toward the main trunk. The roots that had been dug far below into the earth and all over the plane were also extracted. All of them were drawn into the main trunk. It took a lot of time because the root network is extensive. Hadrick has established them over millions of years after all.
