Today was eventful. This morning we saw a group of roughly thirty people approaching the grove, all of them obviously well armored. Shortly after that we saw a banner that declared themselves to be not only a group from Pearlhold, but also a war party, or at least that’s what Tiddol said. Based on the fact that they dropped all pretense of stealth they are either trying to intimidate us, or they realized they can’t sneak past me in my own grove.

After they got a bit closer Kaire and Lulem requested that they be allowed to take care of the soldiers. How they took care of them was stunning, it was a display of plant manipulation on a scale that I’m not sure I could replicate. What exactly they were doing was quickly obscured by the rapidly growing foliage, but the screams were apparent and rapidly fading. By the time they were done all of the soldiers were dead and a kobold messenger was rescued.

Apparently, the messenger was supposed to warn us of the approaching threat.

When the two of them got back they were in terrible shape, both of them completely drained of mana while Lulem was actively on fire. After putting the fire out it was obvious that the both of them had countless cuts and chared patches, Kaire was even missing half of his hand.

It took quite a bit of effort to fix them back up, especially because they didn’t have the mana to do it themselves. The whole display was very impressive, though Tiddol was disappointed that we didn’t get to capture anyone to question.

After that, The Ent with dreams of becoming a chef made dinner for us. He has been practicing for a couple days and thinks he is prepared to demonstrate his skill. Overall it was pretty good, definitely better than what I managed after a couple days of practice.

Anyway, Good NIght Diary
