Degrade from Nobility to a Humble Slave

The chaos remained empty, save for the fairy palace and the black ship.

Restoring a secondary world was a simple matter for Zen, but he needed to maintain order and decide what to revive and what no longer needed to be revived.

"The Pear Hill!"

Splash!

Loose earth and rubble gathered back together into boulders and land forms.

Trees and plants sprouted from the soil and grew rapidly.

Buildings rose from the ground until entire cities were made whole again.

The human race, the Snake Goddess race, all manner of creatures, great and small, were resurrected in a flash.

The Pear Hill had been destroyed not by the downgrading, but because of the erosion of the Extreme Form energies and the invasion of the Troubled Creatures from the Burial Land.

The newly revived creatures were thus still so gripped by fear of the already vanquished Troubled Creatures that they just milled around warily.

Zen nodded to the Snake Goddess. "It's your turn," he said.

"Okay."

The Snake Goddess' eyes lit up. The Pear Hill meant everything to her. She had been devastated to see it destroyed. But now it had been revived, so had her zest for life.

Whoosh!

In a flash, the Snake Goddess stood on the jadeite platform.

"My dear people, the worst is over for the Pear Hill!"

The people in the Pear Hill were unaware of what had happened, but they began to realize that the Troubled Creatures had disappeared. The Snake Goddess' words were the final assurance to put them at ease.

What happened next still left them too dumbfounded to celebrate, however. "Source World, restore!"

Zen had revived the Source World. And the Pear Hill was returned to its original place in it!

The inhabitants of the Pear Hill gasped as a blue cover reappeared in the clear sky above them.
