(I can finally write another chapter! Sorry for being late I was nominated to help build two houses and It sucked especially with all of the mosquitoes around hope this chapter makes you feel better that me.)
Day 12: It has been a few days sense I have gained the ability to control/create plants. During my tests on some innocent animals I have learned that my plants are alive. After killing a few horned rabbits, steel slimes and some firebirds with my poisonous flowers and carnivorous plants I tried to see if I could control the animals like puppets with my plants. I created some vines and imbued them with some dark magic before sending them into the bodies of the rabbits and birds. The effect was extraordinary the vines wrapped around the bones of the animals before invading there heads where a flower bloomed from there skull.
The animals began to rise and look at me with their dull lifeless eyes before changing to a shade of green as the newly formed creatures gained consciousness. They stared at me as if waiting for something before I realized that I should probably order them to do something. I thought about having them attack other animals but they would probably loose. As I was about to give up on them an idea popped into my mind I once again took control of the vines and had the vines between all of the animals combine together. This made an amazing creature, words could not describe what I was looking at but there they were standing before me five horned rabbits with wings and tentacles. The best parts were that the creatures were made entirely of steel and the tentacles were an elastic form of steel but they would sometimes have little bouts of fire shooting out the tips. They seemed much more sentient now as they tried out there new bodies, When they were done they looked upon me again and spoke. Master what do you need of us? I was surprised that they could speak but then I realized that the plants in them were the ones actually talking, as the animals had been long dead. The plants seem to have formed a sort of hive mind were one spoke for all. I decided that they would follow along with the group but at a distance of were they wouldn’t be noticed and to hunt any other creatures along the path that they could find as I could either create more of them or make the current ones more powerfull.

Day 15: It’s been a few days and the number of Changers as I call them has increased to 25. The fist five have developed enough so that they can add in there own parts instead of me having to do it so I let those be the leaders of the group. I than sent them on a quest to increase there numbers and to make an underground base in the nearby mountains as it would be a perfect ground for training and building. I return to the camp where everyone else is and decide to talk to some of the people and learn more about the Spire and Battle Academy. The Battle Academy is a massive castle near the spire with huge open fields for training some of the best soldiers and spies around. There are six different areas of training, assassins, berserkers, arcane warriors, archers, beast tamers, and regular old warriors. The archers, warriors, and beast tamers trained outside while the assassins, arcane warriors, and berserkers trained underground for safety reasons as they wouldn’t want to kill some people with there battle magic, poisons, and rage. When I asked about the Spire Most of the group didn’t know anything about the Spire, as it seems that only the rich or extremely talented get in. Seeing that most of them don’t know I went to ask Veronica in her enchanted tent (with is twenty times bigger on the inside) to see if she had ever been there. She told me that its (One really big spire surrounded by 10 other spires: and massive walls in case the place is ever under attack). Each spire teaches an element or class, there is a fire, water, earth, air, nature, dark, light, beast taming, alchemy, and enchanting classes, plus the basic mathematics, history, arts, and literature in the main spire. She told me that I should be wary of some of the nobles as they might not like that a commoner gets in even though there are a few in my situation. I asked why and she said it was because I was going to be hanging around with her and some of the nobles think that commoners shouldn’t mix in with aristocrats. I nodded my head in acknowledgement, thanked her and left. As I left the magic tent that Veronica, Alice, Sharon, and Sydney sleep in I decided to relax for the night. There was a nearby hot spring where I decided to go and soak into. I threw of my clothes and dumped in without looking if anyone was in there was when I surfaced I was met with the glorious sight of a naked Alice.

Dark:…………
Alice:…………
Dark: I’m sorry
Alice: Kyaaaaaa
Dark: I quickly put my hand over her mouth to keep her from yelling and attracting the attention of everyone else. Look Alice I’m sorry for getting in here without checking if anyone else is in here first. I’m going to let go and I would be thankful if you would be quit. She nodded her head in understanding and I let go. Once she was able to calm down I told her that I would be leaving as her scream had probably gotten the attention of the group. I thanked her for the meal and left just in time as Sharon and Sydney ran into the area and asked Alice if she was ok and what happened. Alice with a bright red face was only able to say one thing… Eel.

A promising oracle, Azarra, is sworn to a life of seclusion and severe vows of chastity for communion with the fateful powers that marked her.

Proclaiming her son as the incarnation of their pantheon's progenitor, Drakkon. Azarra shapes this child, borne of unwanted union, into a tool of vengeance against all who wronged her. Swathing Drakkon in illusion of deification, she casts him as a Living Light to set her foes aflame. The cult they cultivate comes to ordain a new Aeon, a reign of Thunder. But the fiery storm of their imperium falls as rain of ash. (Fantastical elements inspired from Greco-Roman & Germanic/Viking influences in a fictional setting of war & woe.)
