"Feels interesting. Perception is all over the place."

Let's poke some more, get feeling of the whole, feeling of details. Maybe try moving those... things.

"By the way doctor Notabat, you said you don't have Me. How do you then modify life?"

Okay, so Kahigan+staff results in an instant telescope. Interesting.

Move the Kahigan in and out slightly to see if that affects the magnification.

"One could argue that power struggles are perfectly rational, at least to some. States and nobles do it all the time, which similarly disastrous results over a much wider area. The problem lies in that two small scale gangs managed to destroy an entire city in their squabbles."

It then travels around the group of guards like a boomerang. It (5) Slits another throat, (Three 6's in a row!) decapitates three more (!), (4) slices open the last guard's arm, and (2) narrowly misses a random bystander. It then flies back into your hand. Holy crap.

(Oh, shoot, didn't see that.)

Try using the Kahigan to gently push at the spell.

I don't see any pure sand around so I'll try a different approach. Try mixing available earth with fire. About 5-10% earth to 95-90%. Form it around my staff making circle motions and conduct the fire into it with my Sha.

Update 19



"Feels interesting. Perception is all over the place."

Let's poke some more, get feeling of the whole, feeling of details. Maybe try moving those... things.

"By the way doctor Notabat, you said you don't have Me. How do you then modify life?"

"Me is for humans. Others, like elves, and me, have the Eyu. Actually, we have two. They work similarly, but explaining all of the differences would take time.

In simple terms, Eyu is more finely attuned with nature... they way they say it in your language. Your Me acts as a sixth sense, but for us, we use the five senses as they are in nature, and are connected to it. Humans are artificial, we are natural."


Poking around more inside the, err, flower, you notice that you can grab the bead-like thing. You see nothing happen visually, so it's possible you are actually modifying the flower!
Poking further, you feel something deeper, something almost warm to the touch (indeed as natural a feeling as touch).

Hook my Sa Re into the wooden table!

Your Sa Re enters the wooden table, and surprisingly enough, you manage to grab the soul off a dead object. It feels cold as death, but it's there.

Okay, so Kahigan+staff results in an instant telescope. Interesting.

(Oh, shoot, didn't see that.)

Try using the Kahigan to gently push at the spell.

You verify that the magnification indeed depends on the distance the Kahigan 'sinks' into the vial of spell matter. You can even increase your field of view too--yuck, it's nauseating.

(Nausea: -2 to dexterity rolls next combat turn) (will expire before combat, probably)

I don't see any pure sand around so I'll try a different approach. Try mixing available earth with fire. About 5-10% earth to 95-90%. Form it around my staff making circle motions and conduct the fire into it with my Sha.

There is sand inside the Wind building, in scattered pebbles. If you had a means to gather them all into one spot it could be used as pure sand.

The fuse spell is cast in a different fashion from the others. The reagents must be connected to a Kahigan, and then both Kahigan must be connected to the Fusion Amulet hanging from the staff at the same time.
You procure a bucket from the Department to hold the Earth in. It's supposedly made of an insulating material that cannot be fused... so there's that. As for capturing the fire, you attempt to form a burst, but moving your Kahigan quickly enough to capture a wisp of flame while touching the amulet proves just as difficult as it sounds.

Life, Earth, Time?

Life and Earth solidifies into a petrified mass as usual, and time causes it to turn into a coal black. It remains solid, however.

"One could argue that power struggles are perfectly rational, at least to some. States and nobles do it all the time, which similarly disastrous results over a much wider area. The problem lies in that two small scale gangs managed to destroy an entire city in their squabbles."

"If mages seek to gain wealth and power, instead of better their fellow people, then Carazhan can happen again, and again. That's simply how humans work."


"And wars, and famine, and tragedies caused by normal men, irregardless of magic. Professor, how large were these gangs?"
"The two gangs were made up of the largest guilds in the city, so about a hundred men each."

Conduct fire from my staff into my Sha. Then use my Go to move the earth. Then handshake my Kahigan on the amulet.

"Sounds a little insulting to put it that way. So how does one know results of alterations? In any other way than making same changes to hundred things and watching them for years while comparing them to unmodified things?

Oh, is this flower's soul? Feels warm."


Feel the warmth closer, carefully.

Conduct fire from my staff into my Sha. Then use my Go to move the earth. Then handshake my Kahigan on the amulet.

The staff glows, it's not quite on fire. But you try hanging onto the glowing part of the staff anyway and activate the Fusion spell--

The head of the staff still glows, and doesn't seem to have changed much. The earth has turned to clay.

"Sounds a little insulting to put it that way. So how does one know results of alterations? In any other way than making same changes to hundred things and watching them for years while comparing them to unmodified things?

Oh, is this flower's soul? Feels warm."


Feel the warmth closer, carefully.

It's shaped like a sphere, and it's hot to the touch. You wonder if it's possible to burn a Kahigan.

"Considering that human's entire technological progress has been attributed to their Me Kahigan, I wouldn't call it insulting. Regarding the question, once you've removed the soul made changes, and replaced it, you can accelerate the effects with time magic. Won't hurt to learn a little. Or keep an hourglass on you."

Pull out the grass soul again and write it down; it shouldn't matter that I can't properly read it so long as I keep the shapes properly oriented relative to each other. Then put it back and do the same with the table, just to compare them.

Pull the Kahigan in the spell vial back to the edge of the vial, and then use my other Kahigan to touch the wooden block.
