The book is done, and it is beautiful. The cover is an earthy rainbow of colors, made up naturally by all of my plants. The book itself is filled with instructions for every single exercise I know, as well as guides to help people perform them. Between each exercise is information relevant to the next one, and each one builds on the previous one. Hopefully going through this as instructed will allow anyone to become a skilled plant manipulator, though that still needs to be tested. In the back of the book is an exercise that allows you to duplicate the book because I figure that would help spread it farther.

Naturally, the first thing I did when I finished the book was to teach my people how to replicate it, a task that is much simpler than designing it from scratch. I want them to spread it far and wide, I want as many people as possible to master the contents of this book. The more plant manipulators there are the more likely one of them will be able to create something new that I can use or teach me something I didn't know before, and really that's all I care about.

Which one should I make next? Healing, probably. That one will probably include flesh manipulation as well, so I will probably end up making that one out of bone and other similar material. Maybe interwoven with Whitefoot? Yeah, I will probably do that.

It's either that, soul magic, or solar energy, and of those I understand healing the best, soul magic is second, while my understanding of solar energy is lackluster at best. Or at least it's lackluster compared to my other fields of study. Maybe I could get Emericus to help out with that one, though people tend to be a bit cagey around sharing their life's work with strangers so it might not be easy to convince him to help me with that one.

Speaking of, I might be able to do something similar with Tiddol and clockwork and alchemy, though it would be a bit harder as I understand those two things even less than I understand Solar Energy.

Oh yeah, the effects of constantly improving my body with Solar Energy are starting to get pretty dramatic. There isn't really anyone thing I can put my finger on that has changed, it's just that everything about my body is better in pretty much every way. Physically anyway, the only magical abilities it has impacted is my use of solar energy. I could probably beat our best regular soldier in a physical fight now, with swords drawn or fists flying or something and without magic. I still would have to use magic against one of our elites.

Other than that there hasn't been much news. You would think that there would be a lot to talk about with an entire city being culled overnight, but no, not much has happened with that yet. The scholars are still investigating. And with how much of my forest has been destroyed there isn't much I can do to affect that at the moment, recovery is fast but there is a lot to recover. The completely removed several cities from my forest, though they made no attacks on them during their systematic slaughter of my trees.

I ended up spending my downtime going on a date with Azrezel. He succeeded with his previous endeavor, creating a rather impressive undead in the process of raising it and I wanted to give him a treat to celebrate. So I took him out to get his favorite meal, the deep-fried wings of a specific type of beast native around his home town. Expensize here, but I can afford it.

Anyway, Good Night Diary.
