...hhhhuhhhhhhhhhhh...
well, that's... interesting...
Venus' Seed? Mana? Status? what?...
huuu, allow me to dighest this information for a moment.
ok, so... it would seem that I am a seed. Venus' Seed. whatever that means... I don't know what the numbers and all that signifies, but... it would seem that, considering the "Characteistic Abilities", I can grow. i don't know how, but...
uhm, Voice?
- Yes? -
I would like to try using grow? whatever that is?
- how much E would you like to use? you currently have ten E. -
ummm, all of it?...
- Understood. using E... -
I could feel my body begining to crack and change. suddently it felt as if I had regained my limbs, as if tiny legs and a neck suddently erupted from my formerly round body.
- Growth has reached Lv.2. -
- Growth finished. all E has been depleated. as you now understand the fundamentals of Grow, please use it sparingly. -
hm. interesting. well, I think I've got a feel for it. hm, the other skill, absorb... how do you that, Voice?
- Would you like to use Absorb? this will not require any E. -

oh, great, um, yes! please do!
- Understood. commencing Absorb... -
my leg-things started twitching and I felt something enter my body. it felt pretty good though, like drinking a glass of water after a long nights rest.
- Absorb has reached Lv.2. -
- All nearby nutrients have been absorbed, 20 E have been gathered. -
oh, joy. well... better use that energy for good, eh?
I try to exert the same feeling I got when I grew previously, but nothing happens.
- Would you like to use Grow? -
nonono! I can do this myself!
I continue attempting to grow for god knows how long, until, after five tries too many, I feel it.
my body quakes and grows, a few more legs sprout and the previously existing ones grow even longer.
yesssss!
- E has dropped to 0. -
- Grow has reached Lv.3 -

The Featherlight Transmission
In the ancient desert metropolis of Wellspring City, magic is dead, and technology reigns supreme. Baulric Featherlight, one of thousands of street mages for hire, is summoned by the City Watch to assist with a particularly grisly murder - the deed was done by a rogue mage, and the fanatical Dynamic Brotherhood will have every arcanist in the city pay for it.

Will Featherlight's singular skills be enough to hunt down this elusive killer? Or will fear and old hatreds finally tear Wellspring City apart? (Cover art by the inestimable UncertaintyCrossing.
