"Oh, I was mostly wondering about the buildings under construction and the empty ones. I've mostly been doing a lot of sightseeing you see, trying to get a grasp on what's going on in this place." Another vial slipped from his shadow as he eyed the plants this time, giving them all a pretty thorough look.

He stopped for a moment and thought. "This place used to be between gang territory. Most of the buildings were in fact places where they would operate, so the empty ones still need to be cleaned up and renovated to make sure they're safe to use. It wasn't always so calm here, the violence and drugs made it quite unsafe, especially when the other gangs got involved. But most people here had nowhere else to turn. Wildflowers hardly get to choose where they get to bloom, eh?"

He shrugged and pointed at the tower, hiding behind the thick walls of the inner center, and rising higher by the day.

"We got lucky. Our ruler is different, and thanks to her we can start rebuilding this place. Housings, schools, hospitals, and soon we'll even have our own cinema. Eventually, we'll have our official grand opening, and all this ugly past will be long behind us. We can start again from scratch, sounds pretty nice to me."

Joseph nodded along with the little story going on. "Wow, that really is wonderful." There was a glimmer in the alchemist's eye as he held his hands behind his back, shifting his weight from one foot to the other. "I don't suppose that it'd be too much of a bother to see what's behind the walls, would it?"

He shrugged.

"Take my word with a grain of salt, but I hear there has been a leak in the construction site beyond the wall as of late, and the fumes are absolutely horrible. I wouldn't want you to get hurt. Best to wait until the opening day, although..." He pondered for a moment, looking down on the ground.

His hands clapped together with a joyous sound. "That's great! Have a good day, mister. Just give me a few minutes and I'll be on my way." Then he tilted the vial and poured its contents into the garden. Over the next few seconds the earth began to pulsate and the plants sink underneath the surface. Then with a sudden shake plant-wolf hybrids tore themselves free of the earth. Their bodies unnaturally having flesh bloom out of wood, blood flowing where the parts met as none of it fit right. "Do you mind accompanying me on the way?"
