Today I spent my time trying to figure out a way to use an item to trigger an evolution. I am almost certain that the plant I need for this is Spellwood with its ability to mimic spells. Ultimately I need to do a lot more than just trigger an evolution with this, but that is one of the first steps. I feel like I should have it down, but I seem to be missing something fundamental from the equation. Whatever, I’ll figure it out eventually.
I got to talk to Tiddol today. She was tired, mentally exhausted. She could remember everything, I was worried she would forget. Though mentally worn out she was in peak physical condition thanks to my efforts. That she complained about, as it prevented her from sleeping. I offered her some of my sleep aid to help her with that, but she rejected it, saying she wanted to wear herself out the old fashioned way. Considering the fact that she spent about two weeks having little control of her actions, I don’t blame her for wanting to purposefully exert her body.
She doesn''t seem angry at me for what I did. The only emotional reaction I was able to get out of her about that was pride in her own work, and she has good reason to feel pride. She created hundreds, if not thousands of species. I don’t think I could replicate that feat. There are reports of clockwork creatures in every major dungeon in the entire world, or at least the ones on record. And there are many discussions about the creatures on the terminal, reading through those have been interesting. And for all that the dungeons and the scholars are trying to figure out what makes them tick, pun intended, Tiddol understands them perfectly and implicitly. She’s a mother in more than just the literal sense. This story originates from a different website. Ensure the author gets the support they deserve by reading it there.
We have received word from Par about their latest conquest. Apparently, all previous letters have been intercepted through some unknown magic, but now that they have claimed the city the mages responsible have either fled, given up, or died. They made sure to capture all of the nobles and other city leaders and are shipping them back home now. They should arrive tomorrow from Pearlhold’s teleportation circle now that the recently captured city has had their''s reactivated. Perfect timing, I needed some test subjects.
Other than that not a lot happened today.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
