Today I spent most of my time and effort teaching the masses how to properly bend plants to their will. One of them today reached the point where I considered them to be both skilled enough and believed in me strongly enough that they were qualified to join my Paladins. The people around them were shocked when he suddenly started to evolve, and they watched with keen interest as he warped and changed. The man himself was ecstatic to a frankly incredible degree, almost like he had used some of the more potent variants of Drowsy Clover, but there wasn’t anything like that in his system. Halfway through the process, I felt him connect to the others with something resembling a snap. The guy was in a state of awe as he was greeted by his new peers and received their knowledge, while they received his. It was rather entertaining to observe.
The impact this event had on the ones observing it from the outside was immediately obvious. All of them were filled with a renewed vigor and faith. I expected as much, otherwise, I wouldn’t have done it this way, but I didn’t expect it to be this extreme. These people might gain a lot more out of this than just skills with plant manipulation.

Other than that I hung out with Par today, we mostly talked about what to do with replacing Speaker. We went back and forth a lot, proposing different potential solutions and pointing out the potential flaws and benefits of each. Ultimately we decided that our best bet was to have me chose someone I thought was worthy, but not directly. Instead of outright saying as much I instead make everyone instinctually aware that this guy is the person I chose. I’ll probably spend my downtime tomorrow trying to find someone worthy.
Overall it was a slow day.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
