With a loud sound that gathered all of the owl's attention, the room went completely silent, and everyone turned their heads towards the slightly raised stage in the front of the room.
There on the stage were the eight leading owls who were in charge of the lower ranked areas expedition.
"First, I want to thank you all for gathering here. There is no doubt that most of you have proved yourself to be the best and brightest of the peak fiend beast and low tier awakened rank owls in the roost." The top owl said, using a magic tool to transmit sound instead of making a magical connection with every owl.
Though as he did, he glanced a bit harshly at a few owls in the crowd. One of which was Evelyn.
Suddenly feeling the unexplained ire that she was very sensitive to; Evelyn shuddered and began pondering why.
It did not take her long to figure it out though, as she remembered the words that the leader of the expedition had just said.
'I guess that the owls he looked at just now are like me and got in on recommendations alone.'
Sighing and understand that she was likely to be looked down on the leader until she proved herself, Evelyn resolved to not be useless and made sure to pay attention to the presentation.
Soon the opening formalities were over, and the overall leader took a few steps back, one of the other owls on the stage came forward.
Looking at her Evelyn could not believe she was at the awakened rank since she was tiny. Being only around a foot tall.
Truly she was the smallest owl Evelyn had seen in the Roost so far, but later she found out that she was a rare species of pygmy owl that did not really increase in size no matter how high their rank.
"First off, we are going to be heading to another continent that has been designated Falisgisa. It is a lot smaller than the one we are currently connected to and has a far lower overall disruption of magical energy. However, this makes it the perfect place to develop as a resource gathering and training area for fiend beasts and awakened beasts. To that end we will be scouting out and cataloging valuable resources in the areas that have a suitable quantity of magical energy for fiend beasts and low tier awakened beasts." The tiny owl said.
She then activated some sort of magical device and Evelyn watched as a projection appeared on the large wall at the front of the room that all the owls were facing.
Currently being shown was a large rough map of the continent Falisgisa that had been made by a few sovereign rank beasts flying around the continent's border.
There were also a few notable spots on the map that had been mark and were areas of the highest magical energy quantity.
Likely these were the places that tyrant beasts had been living, and subsequently either recruited or annihilated by the higher rank sovereign beasts from the roost and their allies.
"As I am sure that all of you can see, some areas have already been partial mapped, but these are areas that we will be steering clear of. There is plenty of other ground for us to cover over this six-month long expedition."
After saying this the pygmy owl used the same magic device to change the projection, and suddenly a far larger land mass appeared on the screen.
Looking carefully at it Evelyn recognized it as the continent that was detailed in the atlas that Mason had given her.
'Hm? But a chunk of it is missing.' Evelyn thought.
The area that had once been a nation where beasts and humans were supposed to coexist was just water, and the land within a hundred miles of the main city was gone.
Seeing this, Evelyn could only wonder what sort of cataclysm could have occurred to wipe that much landmass off the map. It would have likely taken dozens of hydrogen bombs which were the strongest weapons from her old world to reach a similar level of destruction.
Unfortunately, while she would have liked to find some answers to this, the presentation was still going on and right next to the image of the continent Evelyn had been reborn on was the one of Falisgisa.
In comparison it was much smaller, only around a fortieth the size.
Still, from her time figuring out the measurements in this world and how they related to the ones she knew from Earth, she could tell that this new continent was about the size of Greenland.
Its shape was certainly a bit different being thinner, and also it had dozens of long peninsulas jutting out at different points.
"As you can see this new continent is much smaller than the main one that is connected to our Owls Roost but is still quite large enough to warrant detailed exploration. However, along with our allies, we have split the new continent into three sections." The little owl currently giving the presentation said.
She then fiddled with her magical device a bit more and the map was highlighted into three different areas.
"As you can see this is how the roost and our allies have decided to spilt up the areas of the map. We have been given this area that is highlighted in yellow which goes up from the southeastern part of the continent up to the northern area."
Staring at the map, Evelyn made sure to commit to memory which part the owls had, but it seemed a bit weird how the areas were decided.
The owls had more of a long thin stretch that started at the southeastern part of the continent and slowly got wider as it went north until it encompassed around sixty percent of the area there.
There were also parts along the way where it suddenly jutted out or receded into the other beast's territory. Making it look sort of like a map Evelyn had seen that was an example of gerrymandering.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
