Day 65

This morning Tiddol and her party got back, along with a couple other people. They didn't stay long, leaving almost immediately.

They did, however, tell me what was going on. Those people were mercenaries, they were planning on diving into the dungeon that took Lesys from them, and killing it.

I didn't get much of a chance to respond, or to say anything for that matter.

Other than that, I decided to take a break from practicing magic. Doing the same thing every day gets tedious no matter how much you enjoy it.

I played around, cooked a bit, with no noticeable improvement, and fed the trees.

Willow tried to cook, only to strike a pork chop with lightning, turning the outside to ash and doing nothing to the inside, it wasn't even warm. She started laughing at this, it was almost childlike. Which makes sense considering everything, but she is definitely more knowledgeable than I was at her age, more mature too, so it's easy to forget.

Anyway, Good Night Diary

Day 66

Today Willow, Par, and I played tag, at Willow’s request. I had only a slight advantage. We kept it to the grove because I won’t leave it. In the beginning I dominated, and by that I mean I didn’t get tagged once, then Willow managed to tag Par, who went straight for me. Despite my advantages, he was way too fast for me, in the end, I got tagged after running away for a while.

This went on from breakfast to lunch, ending because Willow got hungry. It was an interesting dynamic, Par was physically far beyond either of us, so he could usually catch us with a bit of effort, Willow was clever, she seemed to learn quickly and used everything at her disposal to evade or capture us pretty well, and I just had my innate abilities and advantages inside the grove. Overall we were pretty evenly matched.

From lunchtime till a little before now I practiced manipulating plants. I want to learn how to manipulate creatures other than plants, but I have no idea how I would get started on that, so I figured if I pretty much master plant manipulation then manipulating other creatures should be a bit easier, or so I hope.

Mostly I just got used to my sudden jump in control from two days ago, it is definitely noticeable, but not extreme. It’s what I imagine would be easily achieved from an inspiration of some sort. If before I could make a flower go from seed to blooming in the time it takes me to count to one hundred, now it takes me till I count to ninety-three.

That's it for today. I think I'm going to grab a snack before bed today, some of those berries would be great. Anyway, Good Night Diary.
