Today I was talking with Tiddol a lot. she was rather sentimental, talking about her friends and family and where she was before becoming a diver. Her parents were farmers, but she always thought farming was boring. All her life she had been tinkering with things to figure out how they worked, and though she only had minimal talent with magic she still managed to pick up a couple things. She told me about how her parents would get annoyed with her slacking off on her chores to go and build some magical device, but they stopped when she built something that helped them water their crops during a drought.

She told me about her siblings. She had two of them, one of them lost their life to a sickness that formed after a failed attempt to cast a spell. The other was a strong young man a couple years older than her, he was conscripted into the army and never heard from again. He was never confirmed dead, and Tiddol still hopes to find him one day, but she has already exhausted all leads.

She told me about her experience with leaving home. She went up to her mother and father and explained to them that she wanted to travel the world, after some convincing they gave her some of their savings and told her to write home every once in a while.

If you discover this tale on Amazon, be aware that it has been stolen. Please report the violation.

Her family is on the other side of the world now, almost perfectly, if she were to try to walk home she would die of old age first even after evolving. As it stands it requires dozens of different teleportations and a very large amount of money to visit home, even with the discounts offered by her association to Mest’s order. If she wanted to get there quickly she would get an incredibly bad case of teleportation sickness.

She said that writing home is much easier, you can send non-living material a lot farther and a lot safer than you can send living creatures. They write to each other all the time, she told them all about me and everything that’s happened since she met me. She says that she isn’t sure if they like me, but they definitely want to meet me, but they want to meet Par and the children more. Mest actually agreed to pay for them to teleport here to be here for when their child has children, he isn’t exactly poor right now.

And that is how I found out that I am going to be meeting Tiddol’s parents. I am looking forward to it.

And another thing. The dragonewt saint’s kids have hatched, I’ll get to meet them in a couple days. I’ve heard that they are really cute, so I am looking forward to it.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
