I made a minor breakthrough with Drowsy Clover, namely a way to refine it a little faster. Everything I do with it going forward will be slightly easier.

Progress with the sleep aid is steady.

I finished the healing set at around Noon today, I didn’t need to make very many but each one took a little bit longer to make than the others because of how much effort I put into designing it.

Now it is time to make the last mass produced set, the one for mages. I am going to need to make significantly fewer of these than anything else, so I’ll be done making them tomorrow morning.

The advisor for this one was a lizardfolk, apparently, he is one of the ex-slavers that I buried with roots.

As all of the mages are able to heal more efficiently than I can have the armor heal them I was able to make the entire set out of Astrie. For this set I made a staff and an armor. The armor was designed to improve Internal mana manipulation and mana regeneration, as most of the mages form their spells inside before casting them, though there are a couple that focuses on external mana manipulation. What exactly that changes I have no idea, I’ll have to ask one of them, or maybe Mest.

The staff was built to amplify spells, improve control of the spell after casting, and make it more efficient.

While I was having the advisor test it out I noticed something. The armor is much more effective on Mages than it is on everyone else except me, I’m still affected by it more than anyone. When I mentioned that the mage assisting me said that it was probably due to the way my armors improve various aspects. See, everyone is enhanced by mana in various ways, what the armor does is it takes that mana and redistributes it, or at least that’s part of what it does. Flesh and Bone non-mages don’t have as much mana as mages, and mages don’t have as much mana as pure mana creatures like myself, so there is more mana affecting their capabilities, and more mana that the armor can draw from to improve other capabilities. Though that doesn’t explain some of the other nuances of how it functions it seems like a reasonable enough explanation.

This means Willow should be just as affected by the armor as I am, assuming I account for physiological differences that are bound to exist, we are two completely different species after all. I wonder how the Ent’s would be affected?

Tomorrow I’ll be taking a break from working on Drowsy Clover to design custom sets for everyone, that should be fun.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
