The snow stopped. The sun came out. The snow melted away. Everything warmed up. And Willow evolved.

Apparently, she caused the storm yesterday on a hunch that it might cause her to evolve, and she was right. So I guess I can forgive her for the inconvenience.

She did not evolve into a Nymph as I expected but rather into a Sylph, a monster with a talent for air, wind, the weather, and Mana manipulation, oddly enough. Willow specifically evolved into a storm variant Sylph. Also, unlike Sprites and Nymphs, Sylphs aren’t always variants, to the contrary, most of them aren’t variants.

I did manage to figure out how Tiddol’s mana deficiency issue is being handled. Apparently, Mest has a pair of items that allow people to transfer mana between each other much more efficiently and at a much longer range than I was capable of. The Ents and Mest all take turns giving her mana so it’s not too much strain on any of them. On top of that, all three of them individually have much more mana production than I do so it shouldn’t be difficult for any of them to keep up with the demand. Apparently, Mest had the items so he could siphon mana from Thes during a fight, this served two purposes; to make use of mana that Mest can use better than Thes, and to potentially weaken Thes if the worst happens. Thes has a surprisingly high mana regeneration, nothing compared to our more magically minded but still.

This sleeping all the time business is getting really annoying, and not just for me, Talus is getting annoyed that i’m not hanging out with her as much as either of us would like. I don’t blame her but there is not much I can do about it.

One last thing before I go to sleep. For the last couple days I have been growing and changing the Solar Energy batteries to be better and more efficient. I also grew two more, though they are both half the starting size of the second one still. I have gotten them to the point that they will grow on their own using Solar Energy nearly as efficient as I would if I were to manually make them grow, and considering the fact that I am awake for about half the time the sun is on a good day recently they will grow much faster if I just left them alone. I might have my misgivings about Solar Energy, but I might as well make use of it since I’m stuck with it. I mean you never know when you will need to throw a massive fireball at someone.
