Kaire and Lulem were both very excited about evolving, I didn’t get much time to talk to them before they ran off to experiment with their newfound powers.
I got back to work on refining my control of flesh manipulation. I think I will get done within ten to eleven days, maybe less if there is some glaring flaw in my methods that I figure out in that time. There is almost certainly countless flaws in my methods, just none that I’ve noticed yet. I have fixed all the ones I did notice.
I am starting to see how flesh manipulation and plant manipulation compare to each other. They are both very creative things, though flesh and bone is a lot more rigid than plants. A plant can survive in nearly any shape as long as they get sunlight, water, and some form of food. Actually, all you need to support a plant is mana, if you have enough mana you can support a plant forever.
Flesh and bone, on the other hand, can only be in certain shape and still be alive. You can’t just change someone’s body after it is fully made, it is difficult for you, and excruciating and almost certainly lethal for the person on the receiving end. I imagine that you can get to the point where molding flesh and shaping bone is as easy as breathing and completely harmless for the subject, but that is way beyond my abilities.
It is actually possible to keep something of flesh and bone alive despite not being in a form conducive to life, it is called necromancy. I can do something similar with healing, but it isn’t exactly the same. I have to get the creature I’m trying to heal up the bare minimum to sustain life while a necromancer can just stop them from dying altogether.
Other than that it was a slow day. The rain has more or less stopped by now, though I am expecting one last storm before the weather fully clears.
Oh yeah, Tiddol made cookies today. They weren’t the best thing I’ve ever eaten, but they were really good. I probably ate way more than I should have.
Anyway, Good Night Diary.
