My apprentices are learning at a steady rate, if it keeps up like this my prediction will be correct for once. I might actually be disappointed by that.


    The itching has gotten worse, though not by a lot. I asked Tiddol if she had anything that could help with that and she gave me some alchemical substance that kills itching and mild pain when rubbed on the skin. It worked, thankfully, though I''m worried it will get so bad that it doesn''t work. I''m hesitant to use Flore as the plant is a lot stronger than what I want. I can make it weaker, but it is less of a hassle to ask Tiddol for help. Besides, I would rather keep the stuff inside of my body at full strength in case I am ever suddenly in too much pain to do anything. I don''t think anything like that will happen, but it is an unfortunate possibility.


    I ended up spending my downtime with Tiddol. She''s doing well, though she is more than a little lonely with Par being gone constantly. By her own admission she doesn''t get intimate with him nearly enough for her preference and is seriously considering coming out of retirement to join him on the front lines. I''m conflicted on whether or not that would be a good thing, but I won''t stop her if she really wants to. I want her to be healthy and happy, and I want my people to be healthy and happy. Her going to the front lines would definitely make her happy, though it might interfere with the healthy part. While at the same time she is also a very important person to the community, the head of pretty much all research done here and personal teacher of many skilled craftsmen. But there are also plenty of skilled people able to take over her role, so that isn''t as big of a deal.Help support creative writers by finding and reading their stories on the original site.


    I think the biggest thing making me conflicted is the fact that I am not able to join them on the front lines, I would be lonely without her. Which isn''t a good reason to keep her here, but still. She''s practically like a sister to me at this point.


    Anyway, Good Night Diary.
