Chapter 4. Progress

POV: Xisumavoid
Location: Hermitcraft 6,

It's been two weeks since the new season started. Grian is getting along with the rest of the Hermits, which is a great sign. Besides that, nothing really happened.

The Prime Admin also explained what happened with the other Prime. She said that the Watchers somehow got to him and tried to make him join. Prime escaped, somehow, and that's how she found him. That's all we know as Skyward likes to be secretive. No doubt everyone has heard about the incident by now. It's been about a month, and news about the Prime Admins spreads like wildfires. Even the other Hermits talk about it.

The other Hermits have talked to Grian already. Most of them like him and think that he's a good addition to the server. Some didn't trust him at first, but eventually were fine with it. Grian was an open person, and likes to talk with the others a lot.

"So, what server did you come from?" I asked him as we were just speaking to get to know one another better.

"Evo, short for Evolution." He replied. I tilt my head and contract my eyebrows.

"Evo? The one that the Watchers took over?" I question. He nodded, looking down.

"Yeah, that's why we had to abandon it. It's now a home for them, as much as I hate to admit it."

"Dislike the Watchers?"

"Yes. Greatly."

"May I ask why?"

"Yep. I saw Evo as a second home. A private place is my first, but I'm not going to go into detail today. When the Watchers took over Evo, they basically destroyed it. I barely made it out, dragging my friends who lived there with me." He got a far away look in his eyes. I looked at him with a pitying expression.

"Oh, I'm sorry for bringing that up." He nodded, looking at me again. I didn't say anything else, letting him draw away from the topic of Evo if he wanted to.

"So, are you a Tier Purpura or a Tier Viridis?" He asked. I pulled back in surprise. Most people don't usually know about the Tiers.

"... Tier Purpura. Why do you know that?" He shrugged.

"When I was bored, I wanted to learn about admins. I asked my admin friend to teach me so I can know the basics."

"What do you know about admis then? I explained the most to the other Hermits last season, so I might as well explain to you too so you know." A faint smirk appeared on his lips, but quickly faded like nothing was there at all. He gave me a lot of information, and to say I was surprised would be an understatement.

"How do you know all of that?" I ask.

"My friend's a good admin." He says.

"What's their name?"

"Xelqua... have you heard of him?" I shook my head.

"No, can't say I have. What rank is he?"

"I haven't kept in touch recently... that's a lie, I haven't talked to him since I was 11, but I think he's a higher Tier. I just don't think it'd be right to guess now because it's been so long. Back then, he was Tier Erythros." He said. I nodded. I'd have to ask someone about this Xelqua person.

"But I think he died from the Watchers. Well, fighting the Head Watcher. The last time I saw him was when he fought off the Watchers to buy my friends and I time to escape from Evo. I didn't see what rank, but definitely higher than Erythros. He would've contacted me if he was alive. We really were close." His communicator beeped. He checked it and slightly paled.

"One of my friends from Evo is contacting me. They want me to meet them now, it's apparently important." I nodded again, letting him go. He flew out, having clearly mastered the art of flying with the elytra. My communicator says that he left the server.

I didn't really get much out of him, but it's still progress. I trust the smaller Hermit, yes, but he just doesn't seem like he's telling the whole truth.

(A/N: dont worry, there will be more action in the up coming chapters. this was kinda a filler, i admit it. this story might only be about 15 chapters or less, so yeah. it's my first real story, though, not just one-shots. how am i doing so far?)
