The evolved Goblins woke up this morning. Most of them became greater goblins, but one out of every three goblins that evolved became hobgoblins like Par. I tried sparring against some of them, and while I lost every time when I went up against a Hobgoblin, I could win a couple matches against greater goblins. It was definitely much more of a challenge, which made it a bit more exciting.


    At one point during the day, I saw Tiddol holding a Dead Tulip. Naturally, I freaked out until I realized she wasn’t drowsy, and I wasn’t getting drowsy for inhaling the pollen. Naturally, I was really curious. She said that she managed to figure out a way to harvest them with little risk, or rather harvest the pollen. It was actually a pretty simple process, she held her breath and ran straight for a small patch of the flowers before putting them into a small pouch made of a thick cloth before running away far enough to be relatively safe. She then shook the flowers for a while until all the pollen fell off. Repeat a couple times and she had a bag filled with sleeping dust. She kept the one flower because it was relatively intact, and she thought it looked pretty, which I have to agree with. Royal Road is the home of this novel.

    Mid-evening I was messing around with the Astrie plants when I decided to make a puppet out of it. The process took a lot more mana than when I used other plants, but it went quicker. I tested the puppet out during a couple sparring matches and I noticed a couple things were different. The most obvious difference was how it controlling, it controlled a fair bit easier, about the same difference between before and after I added joints to the puppet, maybe a little less. Unfortunately, this had the drawback of a more brittle wood, it would crack and splinter quite a bit easier than with the wood I was using before. The last difference I noticed was I was able to heal it a lot easier, to the point that repairing it in the middle of a fight was actually possible. Overall it was a solid improvement, well not solid so much but you get the idea. I wonder if the improved control could help me actually control more than one puppet at a time? I’ll try that out tomorrow.


    Anyway, Good Night Diary.
