This morning I noticed that Thes was missing. He left for a couple days right before Tiddol’s parents got in. Apparently, they don’t really like him, and he knows it. Something to do with him getting triggered in a destructive, if not very dangerous, way when they first met.

Figuring that out took almost my entire morning, the rest was consumed by breakfast.

For my practice, I managed to get up to forty-eight.

In the evening Tiddol invited me to play a board game, the same one we played around our birthdays. The people that played were Tiddol plus parents, Talus, Three of my Ents, Myself, and a random goblin that happened to be walking by at the time. Apparently, his name is Mick.

Mick dominated for the entire match, this game is basically all he does with his time. He ended up losing at the end when the rest of us decided to go for a diplomatic ending in order to take him down. No one really won, but Mick lost. Talus had the biggest army, I had the largest city, Tiddol had the most money, and one of the Ents ended up with the largest land controlled. No one really pulled ahead with magic development, except Mick, but he lost.

Ultimately it was really fun. It is amazing how the creator of the game incorporated illusions and other magic I don’t know the name of to make it run smoothly and just work. I wonder if someone could mimic that for something more practical using my spellwood. I probably can’t, I don’t have the right skills for it, maybe one of the ents can.

One last thing before I go to bed, the first day of spring is coming up here within the next couple days. I will finally be able to start expanding my grove again, not that I can’t during the winter, it just feels wrong. I have grown a lot this winter, more than at any other time in my life, I wonder how that will affect my grove’s growth.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
