I continued manipulating the flesh of insects today, I had no more success than I did yesterday. I’m not improving either, I’m just not skilled enough to work on such a small scale with any success, and if I can’t even have the smallest of success I can’t improve. One thing that trying this has reaffirmed was me not doing it on larger creatures, the insects have all died instantly, but a larger creature would survive for at least a couple seconds, and those seconds would be incredibly painful. I’m not good enough at it to get good at it without also being heartless, and I just can’t bring myself to hurt another creature like that, so i’m going to have to give up for now. Maybe practicing healing will help me there?

Mest has started teaching the Ents magic, at their request. They are naturally gifted at magic, which is a point of pride for me, the most difficult parts of starting to learn magic, sensing and manipulating mana, are both things that they are innately capable of, and their minds are flexible enough to really grasp the concepts. All in all, they are shaping up to be fantastic mages.

Anyway, Good Night DIary.
