The answer is so obvious that I want to face palm. If I had a face. Or a palm.
The whole time we were focused on the idea of water moving, we weren’t focusing on the water in front of us. We had an image of some random pond having some ripples flow through it. While it was a rath...
2025-01-13 03:26:09 +0000 UTC View PostWhile Lilly slept on the ground at the base of my trunk, I wove a bed made of a few freshly grown branches for her. It wouldn’t be the most comfortable thing for her to sleep in, but it was a lot better than her just sleeping on my branches.
She slept for a solid 3 hours this time before ...
2025-01-13 03:23:54 +0000 UTC View PostThe day after the Wolf fiasco was a rather peaceful day. It was also the day I asked Lilly to help me train my mental attacks.
“I can’t really help all that much,” she started explaining. “I have some training for how to defend against mental skills, but that’s mostly to deal with...

2025-01-13 03:22:24 +0000 UTC View PostAfter Lilly told me her tale, I felt rather bad for the girl. She had been through a lot the last few years and really needed a safe place. I just needed to decide whether or not I would be said place for her.
“I am sorry, Lilly. You have dealt with much in your travels. But now that you...

Lilly had grown up working in a happy little shop owned by her father. Her father was a good man, but also a fool blinded by his goodness. He gave too freely, letting debts go unpaid. Lilly didn’t like it, but she knew her father still made more than enough to support the 2...
2025-01-13 03:18:49 +0000 UTC View PostThe birds were the first ones up. I had just finished elongating my 9th vine an extra 15 feet when I noticed they were dancing about again. They started munching on the various berries I had growing, then they both flew off to wherever they went during the day. I still wasn’t sure what they did...
2025-01-13 03:17:55 +0000 UTC View PostI had grown 100 inches by the time I got my first major interruption.
A pack of wolves came running by, which majorly scared my feathery tenants. There was no way in hell that the wolves would be able to reach them, since they sat on my highest branch over 25 feet in the air. Yet they were ...

It also gave me a feeling for Mana, which I quickly used to create a bunch of Mana Berries on one of my main Branche...

I pulled up the description of my new skill, hoping I could still manage to make Health Berries and Mana Berries while using this skill. I didn’t quite know what Mana felt like yet, given I still haven’t had the chance to ...
2025-01-13 03:02:40 +0000 UTC View PostWow. This might take a while.
My root system had grown to be massive over the last few months. I now took up around a 28-foot radius around me underground. The roots closer to my trunk were decently thick, at around 2 inches on average. The farthest roots were little baby hairs tho...

They didn’t have much of a camp to tear down, just a few rabbit skins they used as pillows to sit on. They didn’t even cook the rabbit they ate under me. Fortunately, they decided to bring along the rabbit bones they had left over. ...

I was gaining 3% of my Stamina pool every hour, meaning I could now add an extra growth spurt every day. Unfortunately, that energy growth pattern ...
2025-01-13 01:56:03 +0000 UTC View PostAs I planned, I spent the next five days spending my Stamina on growing my roots. I didn’t add any other objective other than ‘grow’ to it, letting them go wild. After the third day, my main root started to branch off, splitting into three separate directions. By the fifth day, the three br...

On the morning of my third day of being level 3, my third leaf started to come in. I only felt it starting to grow the day before, so I was amazed that it was already starting to shoot out from my side. I had realized during my mediation, that I had g...
