I haven’t gotten any news back on whether or not I will be able to get a hold of Ironwood yet, but Mest asked me why exactly I wanted it. I’m not sure if that’s good or bad but it’s a thing.

In the morning I pulled aside a couple of the Ents, the best healers among them to be exact, and asked them to teach healing in my place. A couple of them agreed and immediately got to work, one of them was the teacher in their past life.

For most of the rest of the day I worked on a puppet, and I managed to almost perfect it. To be fair I was working with a really strong base.

I started by creating an Ent, only I didn’t let a piece of my soul enter its body so it never came to life. From there I removed most of its magical abilities, they are useless in a puppet, the ones I left I modified to allow me better control over the body. Then I made sure the puppet was extra flexible and hard to damage. Really I didn’t have to change much from the base, simply add in a couple minor changes that might be disadvantageous to a mage, but would work perfectly for a more physical type of fighter.

Tomorrow I will add the finishing touches, create a weapon, and then spend the rest of my time practising with it. I can’t really improve much upon what I already have without something like Ironwood, or another plant with relevant magical capabilities. I ended up making the control mechanisms and the sensory organs out of Astrie, as it is the best plant for the job there, but the rest I made out of mundane wood.

Other than that not a lot happened today. Hopefully, I should be finding out whether or not I’m getting my hands on some Ironwood tomorrow, I made sure to burn Fate while hoping for a good response.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
