"Worst case scenario I'll get Ghost to take her out if she breaks away,~ Lucius thought to himself, noticing Pagan approaching from the distance. "Ahh, Hannibal. I've yet to give you the Elmando skill, huh?" "Your commandment?" Hannibal asked, a tinge of unexpected excitement in his voice. "Commandment?" Lucius repeated, side-eyeing Pagan. "What I said was The Commandment. It is the power you gave me to bend the forest to my will," Pagan explained, before calling two nearby vines toward…-

"What is this?" The liquid seemed magical, he hadn't expected it to come out this way. "I have no clue. Ever since that tree started glowing, most of the plants here began reacting to it. Yesterday when Hannibal and I were trying to refine the concoction, it began glowing," Asclepius explained as she handed the sack over to Lucius. "It absorbed the solar energy," Lucius murmured, seeing how the liquid was glowing brighter at regular intervals, almost as if it had a pulse. "You said the plants started…

"However, I'd rather not trust them with vital information, not yet at least. So you may use them if you want to send the chieftains or other shrooms on errands, but refrain from sending them on anything that has to do with the internal matters of the camp," Lucius said after some thought. Upon hearing this Hannibal nodded his head, as if heavily agreeing with Lucius's way of thinking. "As you wish Lighted One, I shall put them to good use on other matters then," Pagan replied. "One of you get the…

"You have been resting in the housing that the Lighted One's supreme servant has built," the shroom replied in its almost angelic little voice. "Pagan built this? When? How long was I out?" Lucius asked, already walking towards the large double doors. "4 days, Lighted One," the shroom replied. "Four days?? No, no, no, that's too long," he whispered to himself, this would set him back way too much. ~I have a tournament to attend... four days lost is way too mu-~ his train of thought was lost once he got…

"I'll call you in an hour or so to hold a photosynthesis session. Maybe we'll hold another duel as well, but for now, eat and take rest," Lucius ordered, before heading to the silo to get something to eat. His encounter with Ghost had reminded him of the fact that he had poison-based skills within his arsenal. Yet another weapon he could use to turn the tides of battle. He was certainly going to ask the chieftains to teach him a few techniques after the photosynthesis session. So in an attempt to…

"That's exactly what I mean," Lucius replied. "I met yet another magical creature today, it seems that magic isn't as rare as we once thought," he whispered. "We ought to start practicing magical combat. There's something I want us to join and we have to increase our combat strength if we want to be ready for it. Not to mention the current enemies we have lurking in the forest," he said after. "Since you're the only other one with magic, I'm afraid we'll have to spar with each other," he added. Lucius…

~It spoke of the shu'hakan, a fighting tournament,~ Lucius thought to himself as he stalked the forest in search of something to hunt. ~Hmm, if these... behemoth races are gathering there, then that's probably my best chance to get information about this world. Not to mention the fact they might have valuable items, and techniques I could trade for,~ he thought to himself. ~Though I'll need something of equal value to trade with,~ he realized, spotting a mushroom buck in the distance. ~Man, this just…

~Sigh, well I suppose creatures wouldn't want to reason with what they assume is a creature weaker than them,~ Lucius thought to himself. ~I'll use this chance to test my strength,~ he decided, before launching at the creature's face. The tree that he had launched from cracked under the pressure, and the golem went falling to the ground with the attack. "Do not get things twisted, I am above you, now submit," Lucius announced, attempting to dominate it. The creature lay frozen in shock for a moment,…

Lucius then got to work using Elmando to command a few vines from nearby trees to snake toward him. He then picked up a few of the bone pieces he had crushed, and used the sharp tip of one of them to bore holes into the others, creating makeshift needles. Once he had made around ten of them, he used Elmando to split the vines into fine thread-like strings and pushed them through the needle eyes. Once all that was prepared, he got one of his stone knives and began cutting the fur up into equal squares. He…

~Hmm, so that means I may need to make contact with the furry folk. But right now they don't see me as more than a mere bug. What if they don't believe in the prophecies of the Fae? Besides, if they really did live alongside them, why aren't they trying to look for this savior?~ Lucius thought to himself, just now reaching the camp. ~Curious. I'll ask the other creatures of the forest about this during trades. If Pagan was alive when the Fae were around, then there must be other creatures too. Someone…
