"Pretty!" lody yelled and reached for it
He promptly pulled another one out of his pouch and handed it to her. It didn't last long in her hands and was crushed almost instantly. She really didn't know how to be easy.
Michelle was inspecting the one that he'd given her when she heard lody yell and point, "Mommy! Book!"
She glanced over at her daughter, then back at Taylor. "Well, I guess Albus is real, but you're still insane. What would have happened if you'd blown yourself up?"
"I would have died." He said while shrugging. "Now go ahead and crush that core so that you can get used to things."
She just looked at him and sighed while doing what she was told. "I'm going to blow you up myself if you don't start caring more about yourself." She muttered.
They walked along in silence for a while. Taylor noticed that she continually made gestures in the air, or moved her eyes like she was reading pages. lody had tried chasing her Grimoire around more than once and he had to keep catching he as she pulled too far away.
"Hey, what do you think I should do?" She asked after a while.
He frowned a bit and replied, "It isn't for to say. Even though I can make suggestions, whatever you choose is going to change how you live from now on. Your decisions will also affect the passive Talents that you're offered, which can dramatically change the way that you take on enemies, or protect the children."
She nodded and thought for a while about what he'd said before making a decision. "I'll just go with what I'm comfortable with then. As much as magic interests , based on what you said, it will be complicated until there's already so collective information floating around. I'll add my points to Strength and Agility to make sure we can kill things quickly."
He nodded at her choice, it was a smart move. She already had an idea of how to play a lee fighter roll in a party from the gas they used to play. Even though this was real, he imagined that groups would be built similarly, and the sa strategies would be applied the majority of the ti.
"Very well." He pulled out all of the Level 2 cores that he'd found and gave her enough to Level 4. This left him with 29. He didn't want her to get to Level 5 right away, her Grimoire needed to know which talents would best suit the way she thought while she was fighting.
'Albus, is there any type of party system?' He asked while she was crushing the cores.
:Yes, your Inventory page can toggle between the Inventory and what you would call a "friend list". It's a bit more complicated than that, however. The process actually links Grimoires in a way that lets them know you're friendly. Different abilities that can apply to multiple targets are affected by the link. You wouldn't want to cast a large scale curse and kill your friends, so to speak:
'That's more useful than I thought He wondered about the complexity of Albus' abilities before asking, 'what do I need to do to initiate a link?'
:You just tell who and leave it to . You should let her know that she will receive a prompt to create the link shortly:
"Hey babe, you're about to get sothing similar to a friend request from Albus. Don't take it lightly, it's a link between Grimoires and not a friend list like in a ga." He made sure to give her the sa warning.
Shortly after, a na popped up in a right-hand column of the Inventory page. 'Zolis huh? She's using the sa na as our D&D sessions.'
:I suggest you start using these nas regularly, if you could forget your given nas it would be even better. Multiple kinds of magic can affect a being by using its true na. Your given na and your True na aren't exactly the sa of course, but humans are so attached to their given na from birth that it has a slight effect on one's soul:
'That's... going to be a bit difficult to get used to. Maybe not for the children, but most adults will have issues with it.' He quickly relayed this information over to Michelle, and both of them agreed that they would forsake their given nas and go by their alias nas from then on.
After the trip was complete, they stood at the top of the first hill and looked over the Sli field. There were noticeably more Slis around from the first ti Geth had visited the place.
It looked like Albus was right about their reproduction rate. The overall number in the field was around 500 at this point.
Zolis saw the large puddle of dried blood on the foot of the hill from where Geth had crashed into it. She realized now that he'd actually almost died, and decided that it was definitely a good idea to stay away from magic for now.
Geth walked over to the edge of the hill, pulled up his kilt a bit, and started pissing down the other side. He looked over his shoulder, "All right, go on and have so fun. Stay closer to the edges until you're comfortable with taking them out."
She rolled her eyes at him again and nodded before heading down the hill. He looked to where he'd laid lody and Kael. She had fallen asleep just a few minutes before they arrived, and he still hadn't woken up.
Carrying the two of them and walking instead of jogging had slowed their pace to a crawl. It had taken them nearly three and a half hours to get there.
He watched his wife walk down the hill and towards the Slis that were further back than before. The first one she ca to was blue, according to Albus they had likely taken on the water elent by absorbing the morning dew on the ground.
He watched her sowhat timidly ball up her fist and punch out at it. It was really awkward, but the effects were amazing.. That awkward-looking hit splattered the creature and then sunk slightly into the ground.
