This morning I asked Par if he could do anything about the constant anger and within an hour there was feasts and partying everywhere, he was giving speeches and the mood was changing. It was actually really impressive, even more so because it worked. I was still angry, but not the white-hot searing rage of before. It was a calm, smoldering anger.
The problem is I don’t know if that anger was my own. People were still angry, that much was obvious, but I’m not entirely convinced that it was enough to really sway my emotions. It’s hard to know what I am feeling when my emotions are too easily overwhelmed by the masses. But I can’t really fix that, to remove someone from my hivemind would be to kill them, we can’t afford that kind of loss. And I have no idea what it is that causes me to feel the emotions of others, so I don’t know how I could go about fixing the problem.
I managed to learn quite a bit today, relative to the last couple days at least. I learned how to create Illusions using soul energy today by basically messing with the parts of the soul that communicate with the sensory parts of the body like the eyes and the ears. I’m not really sure what the practical applications of this are, but it’s interesting nonetheless.

I’ve also recently learned a lot about the brain, which from my newfound understanding serves as the direct connection between the soul and the body, while also somehow expanding on the effects of the soul? Like many of the functions of the brain and the soul overlap quite heavily and they work in tandem together quite well. I know you can have conscious thought, memories, and life without a brain, but can you do the same without a soul? Might be worth looking into.
During my downtime, I hung out with Tiddol, though we spent most of the time in silence. She still seems to be pretty shocked by recent events so I just sat there next to her, keeping her company.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
