Waking up there was nothing but black then white, only white. Last thing i remember is going to bed after a 42 hour straight workathon is this some weird dream is one of the more abstract I'v had but it wouldn't surprise me, but I'v never been this aware before or is the right term lucid, eh.

Lets try some brute force test to see if I'm dead or dreaming it be nice if this was some isekai bullshit but lets get to testing, hmm it seems I have no limbs to pinch myself so next status.

Well nothing happens, maybe this is a world where magic just is or whatever I am doesn't get a system

Well shit what now, DEVOUR, EAT devour what what or who the hell was that, DEVOUR, EAT. eat what the snow how i have no mouth hmm what if i try to inhale the snow like I'v seen in some novals how they inhale mana or something lets try, ok deep breath in and keep that feeling going cuz i don't really need to breath out oh that cold. Must grow move, kill. grow. Ok then with the creepy voice that im chopping up to the instincts of this new from of mine but lets start getting more snow and ice if it will help me grow. (An hour latter) AHHHHHHH brain freeze how does that even work.

Ok lets try this growing thing that the other guy was talking about, OH that feels weird or feels may be the wrong word it's just weird. As I force ice and frost to flowing around my core lair buy lair after about a 10 mins I'm a 5 foot tall bulky ice thing and god dose it suck its slow and awkward to move with, as you'd think from a thing made of solid ice but holy shit this is bad lets try to make this bearable. I shave down the torso and legs making them sleeker and lighter of course, by the end of my changes my new body seems to resemble a wolf/lizard like bi-ped with digi-dagrade legs and all that jazz.

Now this is more like it bet you thought id go more human hah why would i do that when I have a chance of being something else now then lets have a look around........ huh seem to be nothing but snow and frost as for as the eye can see, well this sucks did i really spawn in a fucking tundra, well fine then i guess I'll just start walking south should get out to warmer lands now then what direction is south from what i can remember the sun rises in the east and sets in the west so if i can figure that out i can find south probably at least, looking up there are two suns not adjacent to the other but one after the other so the pole I seem to be at never sees night its an eternal day well god dame it, fuck it this way it is then.

After walking for who knows how long the nice thing is I don't need sleep or food i can walk for ever it seems that may get real old the no sleeping thing but for now its nice for travel speed so i walk and walk and walk and walk god I'm bored oh whats that rumbling feeling, at that moment something burst from the ground hitting dead center sending snow and me flying, landing ass over tea kettle recovering I found myself looking up at a 10 foot tall or would it be long eh whatever a big fucking ice worm.

Well fuck this, I start hailing ass even resorting to running on all fours the fastest I'v ever run beside the fact im being chased by something that could eat me whole this is pretty fun on that note its still on may ass how is something that big this fast I'm running at like 100mph, screw it sharpening and hardening the tips of my claws and teeth I stand and wait and listen for any sign of that things emergence seconds past for a minute I thought it left but as that thought was finished it burst from my right a wall of teeth i side step and lash out with tooth and claw both find their mark taring and cutting flesh its screams and tries to run under ground but i think not as a absorb more snow and ice and start to grow in size latching my teeth onto its tail and playing a surprising fun game of tug of war it pulls trying to run but with the advantage of all for of my limbs anchoring me to the ground and taking more snow and ice to grow in strength and size soon i finally grow to make it trivial to pull the bastard from his hole and start to tar and eat it.

i find i can eat dont know were it goes but i find it was quit addicting i guess I'm not eating the flesh pure say but the mana, life force thats in the meat I dont know how that really works but i can still taste unfortunately and this is a mix of the grossest thing I'v ever put in my mouth but its taste an't bad but its not good taste like raw chicken that sat out in the sun for a little bit but the mana makes it a bit better, after im done with my meal i feel so much energy with in me.

Looking over my body nothing looks different but it feels weird maybe the ice my body is made of is harder or I just over filled my mana pool so who knows I may just implode if i eat more so lets not do that this may just pass hopefully.

So now that is done I guess lets keep walking god i hope this is the right way I really dont want to have to walk for a month fighting off these worms along the way, at least if they do pop up it will be something to brake the monotony of this trip and i can figure out the true strength of this ice body of mine, i guess i could check out what i can do as i walk i wonder if Mr. devour can tell me anything so devourer u got any words of wisdom, Need mass to grow, need strength to survive. Well that was more then i was expecting from him is he getting smarter, i hop not having to fight him for this body would be a pain.

I guess its time to get to walking maybe try to eat some dirt under the snow, i cant believe i just that but eh gotta do what u gotta do for science.
