The Ent is coming along steadily, i’m getting closer and closer to taking the next big step to its completion.

I asked Mest about his ‘order’ today, and it was actually pretty interesting. This ‘order’ was supposedly founded by The First Sentient, he was very particular that it was a title and therefore had a capital letter for each word. The First Sentient was a troll that kept memories of a previous life almost entirely intact, which is what he attributes his sentience too. Fitting that the first creature to obtain sentience, other than origin, would be part of the first successful species, other than origin. The order itself is dedicated to learning everything they can about the world, and they have created quite the library in its almost three hundred years of existence, 293 to be exact.

Love this novel? Read it on Royal Road to ensure the author gets credit.

Mest himself primarily studies dungeons. As a result of that, he also studies offensive magic, as there has never been a report of a dungeon cooperating with, anything really as they are known to kill other dungeons to some unknown end. How they reproduce, other than the world itself creating them is a mystery so they can’t exactly raise one in a controlled environment. Ultimately there is very little known about dungeons. Mest’s personal favorite theory is that a dungeon deserves the name the title of The First Sentient, but as of yet no one has been able to prove whether or there are any dungeons that are sentient, at least the ones that were not merged with members of origin, but that started after The First Sentient was born.

Ultimately the weirdest part of the whole thing was that an organization that was almost entirely composed of mages was led by a creature inherently incapable of any known magic, he can’t even directly benefit from magic.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
