I get the impression that most elves just brew mana potions as needed, so it will probably just be easier to find an axe.

I agree with the

Ask to learn tomorrow -> beg a mana potion from someone part.

Note: "beg off [activity]", "beg off of [person]" and "beg a [object]" are all totally different phrases. The first one means to politely decline to do something. The second two mean to mooch. We shouldn't mooch off of people, it's impolite.

Well... I did know that begging a [] from someone is impolite :P

Of course, you should ask for one politely.

I'm not being rude or impatient, but really... Just get a friggin' mana potion. ::) That's all. Yes, politeness can be beneficial to our goals, there is no reason to be offensive to anyone. In fact, being nice to people usually pays off in the long run.

I doubt anyone will notice the tree, and the chance someone will conclude it is a fisherelf with apparently terrible magic is a necromancer and reanimated the tree is even less likely.

Try to get a mana potion and ask to learn tomorrow.

Look at the bright side: In a few hundred years, some necromancer will be happy to use the corpse.

I sincerely hope you were talking about the tree. In any manner, that was an extremely tasteless, if not downright offensive joke considering the situation at hand.

I'm thinking that the tree has got to go soon. Even if there's no way it would point at us, it would raise suspicions among the elves greatly. I suggest finding an axe somewhere, then sneak up on the tree, to check if someone is or has been around recently. If someone is there leave, if not, chop that bitch down and take Rocky and the string golem to a new base camp just in case someone noticed the old one. We can take no risks in this..

EDIT: There is no need for an axe actually. We may as well use rocky or any other blunt weapon.

Something about this game makes me wonder why God lets it exist.
Say, if you give birth on a ranch and then murder your baby will a corpse drop be guaranteed?

I'm not quite sure which is worse.
Having to beg for a mana potion, which makes us both kind of rude and suspicious, because it's presumably sort of well known that we're not the sharpest tool in the shed concerning magickery, OR leaving a purple necromantic bonfire out in the open for everyone to see.

It's probably the latter that is worse, but the alternative is still kind of awkward.

Speaking of bonfires, it might be the simplest way to just set the tree afire?
I'm not sure how big it is exactly. If it's not too big, we might get away by saying that we were making a campfire, in the event that we should get caught.

Axing the tree would take a while, but we should be done before nightfall. The bigger question is "Will this destroy the tree?".
