Today I noticed the leaves on my trees start to brown. I don’t like that, and neither do the trees. So I fixed it, fall will not come for me this year.

I went into one of the jewelry shops that have opened up recently and picked up the highest quality gem I could get. It isn’t quite as good as my demon glass, but it is still pretty good. I then spent most of the morning getting the armor to run off of it and making the whole thing self-charging. Pipeweed made that last part easy.

And with that, I am done with Tiddol’s present. Without getting ahold of new plants there isn’t anything I can do to improve it. Yeah, I could evolve the plants involved to make it better, but that would only result in making the whole thing cost more mana and it’s already stretching it there.

Now I need to figure out what to do next. I can always try to perfect my plants, or form new plants out of what I already have. Or I could try to fully digest the knowledge floating around in my head, I could probably finish that before my birthday even. Or I could work on getting good at Solar Energy finally, and now that I think about it wasn’t that my original plan anyway? I think I’ll go with Solar Energy.

I’ve felt driven recently, well I’ve felt driven for quite a while but it is much more intense recently. To what end I have no idea, but I feel driven nonetheless. I don’t want power but I am pursuing it anyway, and I don’t know why but it feels important, more important than anything else even.

I’m proud of what I have achieved so far. My grove, my most powerful of limbs, is getting closer and closer to becoming a fully fledged forest by the day. The day where I can stand at the tops of the trees on my borders and be unable to see the distant end is near. I have many magical plants and even an entire community has built up around me. But it isn’t enough, and I don’t know why it isn’t enough. I feel like I shouldn’t worry about it, but despite that, I am disconcerted.

My dad’s young trainees have made remarkable progress in self-healing if nothing else. I’m not too surprised, if the stories are true then it is far from the first time my old man has raised an army, and most of those were with much worse starting material.

Other than that I spent my downtime with Azrezel.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
