Askos succeeded today, barely. He managed to keep all of the bodies from dying, though on one he had to amputate an arm to keep it from bleeding to death. After all was said and done he had all of the bodies stable and from there it would have been easy enough to take your time and get all of them back into peak condition.
Junior isn’t able to be as efficient here as Askos is, but she is the better healer. She is coming close to also being able to keep all of the bodies stable. I give it a day, maybe two, before she pulls it off.
For their next exercise, I will have them trying to heal while being actively opposed by things like Null or a poison that makes healing harder, I could probably make one out of Whitefoot.
I have also made some significant progress on getting my trees to float. Tiddol came to me with what she says is the best overall design for the actual bowl to maximize the amount of water being carried up by the spiral, which improved the results rather dramatically. It likely would have taken me a week to get a design as good as the one she created.

I didn’t just improve Water Lotus today, I also figured out ways to decrease the amount of pores in Shimmerleaf. I spent some time figuring out how I could decrease the number of pores without harming the health of the plant and made some decent progress.
Overall I think I should have something capable of floating indefinitely within the next two days.
Other than that I saw the same guy from a couple days ago, the one that was trying to seduce me. At the time he was talking to my dad and was very animated and excited, and when he saw me he gave me a whole spiel about how ‘it was a shame I got called away last time’ and other stuff like that. When I called my dad ‘dad’ he went white as fresh snow. This time he was the one to run away.
After talking with my dad for a bit after that it seems that the guy is actually a competent adventure, which is kind of problem because he is trying to emulate my dad, specifically emulate him in his capacity as a kingmaker. It seems he heard about a rapidly growing empire and decided to check things out for himself to ‘make sure Emperor parius wasn’t abusing his power’. Needless to say, my dad has already made sure that there is a kill squad on standby to take him out if he proves to be a problem, which could very easily happen. In the meantime, my dad is trying to manipulate the guy into going after the angelic council instead. He isn’t a threat to Par or most other important people, but he could cause a lot of damage if he wanted to.
That ended up taking up my downtime.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
