Today some of the creatures that already knew a lot about plant manipulation have gotten to the point that I can’t really teach them anything more. There weren’t a lot of them, most of were Ents, but it was still a couple dozen. I expect people to slowly trickle out like this for a while, and every time someone leaves I can put more resources towards teaching the ones that are left.

I was really hoping to not take a long time on this project, but it’s too late to back out of it now. At this point, the ideal would be to figure out some way to teach them faster, but as of yet, I have no idea how to go about doing that. Unlike with the older dungeon teaching me, the limit is on the student’s end, not the teacher’s. Making it so I can process more information isn’t going to help here, and I don’t have a way to improve the people yet, still working on figuring that one out.

Now that I think about it, do I even need to be the one to teach them? Well, yeah, for this batch I do, but in the future, maybe not. I can make memories with soul energy, and what are memories but knowledge? Well, I know how to make memories, I’ve never actually done it before. Yeah, now that I think about this it would be entirely feasible to do this. I would need Grey Iris and Lace to allow people to receive the information, very few people can communicate directly with the soul after all, but everyone in my hivemind can communicate telepathically. I get the feeling I’m also going to need spell wood, but I’m not sure where quite yet. There are some kinks I need to work out, and I would need to practice making memories, but the more I think about this the more I like the idea.

Tiddol has been working with and improving her body quite a lot recently, she’s actually getting really excited about working with it. She’s already done things like build alchemical tools into her own body, though she’s still working on figuring out how to consume a potion without biological parts. It should work in theory, the effects are all magical, but she’s still figuring out the specifics.

And her physical improvements are amazing, I’ve never seen anyone jump so high without using magic. And her reaction times are a sliver of what they once were. And while she’s concentrating her fine motor control is significantly improved, though when she isn’t focusing she still twitches, more so than last time I hung out with her.

She seems happier, and she made quite a few jokes about Par being happy with some of the changes she’s made to herself. But it’s obvious, to me at least, that she’s just hiding her darker emotions.

She still has issues with concentration, her attention is always split between three or four different things and she hasn’t quite yet figured out a way to fix that, or at least give herself enough mental prowess to deal with it. She still isn’t letting me help her there. She still needs to take a while to think about everything she says. That violence is still there, it seems almost spiteful. It worries me, but she won’t let me help her with this.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
