((Subcolloid is the name I gave to the strange material that lacks a state of matter. It's included in one of Chorkinaan's more recent soliloquies.))

((Yep. Got exactly what I intended, though, so the miscommunication doesn't really matter.))

Viznor began thinking about a practical problem that he had missed before, namely, how to carry this without silencing himself, but that could wait. Everything could wait until this blinding headache passed.

{Viznor: Blinding headache 2 turns, can't cast}
{Ethereal string: Controllable by thought, silences on touch, dimensions are negotiable.}

((Aaaaand the end roll didn't cooperate. Ah, well. There's a distinct sense of irony in that, and the string is well worth it.))

--------------------------------------------

"The... cord is very... nice.
ouch
Thank you for your... business and/or ow assistance."


With that, Viznor commands the ethereal string to wrap around his arm (or simply wraps it manually, if even that is too much mental effort) and stumbles into a nearby wall, shielding his eyes against the purple glow of the Tower.


He emerges in the general direction of Easter Sunday, give or take several meters.


"You... wanted a bow, right? I can... make one. Not right now, though, because ow."

Possible PM action as well.

"A bow would be nice, but armor would be preferable. If you can't make armor though, a bow would be fine. What would you want in payment?"

If he can, Easter Sunday tries to make 3 essence. If not, he orders the Queen Wasp to carry on laying eggs.

Pocket the needle, carefully. Then make 4 essences.

"Interesting... Tangible reality and Lumui power... So very interesting."

Try to pick up painted compass. It could be a valuable clue to the puzzle and a good instrument of orientating oneself in many Tower halls. Follow its directions to see if it actively leads somewhere or if reality changes to match it.

Science is always important. But it needs more flaming cats. Can't we build bridge-based catapults and fling flaming cats at the dust and goo?

"It is entirely... within my capabilities (argh), though not when something is... taking a sledgehammer to the inside of my... skull.

In return ow, I would like a talisman... which grants me... the dexterity of an insect, and possibly... ow the speed as well. I would assist... you to increase... its potency."

"Ow."

3 more essences

Try to feed the crystal bird a non-chaotic +1/+1 essence, trying this since it was originally created by a collapsed essence near the crystal

Chorkinaan returns to the forge room and revisits Skelliborn.

I've got it! With Viznor's help, I've cracked the code. Royalty is able to morph and extend in such a way because it lacks a state of matter, and therefore is unbound by the traditional laws that govern form, adhesion, cohesion, and structural integrity! The best part is, I'm fully capable to recreate such a material! I call it Subcolloid. Anyway, I think I aught to use my next few minutes cleaning up my mess.

Three essences, survey the damage I caused whilst getting ahead of myself in testing Royalty's capabilities.

I'm gonna want you to give some example spells for that affinity. These affinities are getting ridiculous

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.
