I am steadily healing from my expenditure of ‘the spark of life’, Mest is increasingly amazed at how quickly i’m recovering, saying it goes a long way to confirm a theory of his. I wasn’t able to what that theory was out of him today. I was, however, able to confirm that the magical item he pulled out yesterday was built for communication.

I continued to teach the Ents language today. They learned exponentially faster, the more they knew about language the faster they could learn. The way they did that was fascinating, it was similar to a couple people brainstorming, but at the speed of thought. Like this I believe I could easily teach them anything I know, be it skills or knowledge, and vice versa.

They think together, constantly communicating through that link in their minds. At first, I was worried they would end up as one personality with two bodies, that didn’t happen. I’m actually amazed at how distinct their personalities are from each other, despite not being fully formed yet, and they only grow more distinct.

I think we have the right idea here. First with Willow and then with the Ents we have almost immediately set about teaching the young minds in our midsts everything we can, starting with language. And from what little I can tell from the Ent’s still developing personalities, we’re three for three with molding thinkers, people that thirst for knowledge. It makes me proud.

I set to creating Tiddol’s birthday present after teaching the Ents all I could about language, instructing them to meditate on the new knowledge. I started by taking some relatively normal wood and trying to give it some sort of trigger to turn it into an armor. I was able to accomplish that much, but I still had to use my own abilities to manipulate plants to activate it, which would be useless for what I want, an armor that anyone can use, something I can give to Tiddol to protect herself with.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
