《Diary of Erica Kron》Day 209

Thes didn’t return today. He’s still alive, we know that much. Mest did some magic thing that I don’t understand to be able to tell when he dies. We have no idea where he went or how long he planned to go hunting so all we can do is wait I guess.

Mest and I talked about why exactly he went on this hunting trip. Thes is striving for an evolution, after he saw me evolve he thought that maybe evolving could help him contain his rage. Mest isn’t too sure that it will work well enough, though he is absolutely certain it will work to a limited degree. I’m just going to transcribe the next part, I don’t think I can do it justice ‘What i’m terrified of is this, what if he still can’t perfectly control his rage afterward? If he can’t perfectly control it then it’s only a matter of time before he snaps again, and what then? Currently, he is just weak enough that I can subdue without issue when he snaps, but after an evolution I may not be powerful enough. And there is no one else here who would be able to give me meaningful support in subduing him, except maybe you. You could maybe delay him for a second or two with vines and roots, but no one else would have the power to slow him down. And, even worse, I’m nowhere near an evolution of my own, it will be years till I get another, and if I can’t subdue him then I die, and hopefully no one else dies with me. We can’t kill him either, he’s practically my brother.’

Side note, I learned that the fastest hand on the clock is called the second hand, indicates seconds. I didn’t realize it had a name, and apparently, the other two are minute and hour.

When I asked if his friends might be able to help he said no, apparently they are staying another week at most before their needed elsewhere, and they aren’t quite as powerful as Mest. we started discussing other things that could be tried, and couldn't think of something they haven’t already tried. No metal they have ever found has been able to constrain him for more than a second, venting his rage doesn’t end well for reasons Mest didn’t go into, and exile isn’t an option because we would both lose Thes and piss off some other group, which could end horribly for everyone involved.

Honestly, I don’t want to see him go, I like the guy. Not a great conversationalist but I can respect him.

No, i didn’t talk to the botanist today, and it definitely was not because I think he smells bad or that he looks like he’s never heard the word bath, and it certainly isn’t because the smoke from his pipe gives me a slight headache.

I honestly don’t think he would notice if I stole a couple samples as long as I don’t touch whatever is in that pipe and don’t take all of any one plant.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
