You finish your 'song', though really it was just a series of noises played very loudly and quickly, and the Varistha cracks open a single eye. You're not sure if he's irritated or amused. He opens his mouth, then closes it again. Searching for words to express his appreciation of your talent, surely. When he finally speaks it wasn't exactly what you were expecting. “I will pay you to not do that ever again.”

You grin from ear to ear. You simply can't help it. “Believe me, most noble Varistha. You couldn't afford it, but if you're really so invested in my playing I wouldn't be opposed to lessons...” The Varistha shakes his head slowly. “Speak with Sister Balik, she is our resident musician. You can usually find her in the library or here, in the gardens.” Sehzade pushes himself to his feet, stepping off of his rock. “Let us go for a walk, yes? There is much to discuss.” He offers his hand to help you up and you take it. The two of you begin to distance yourselves from the central pond, instead weaving through the thick undergrowth along a seemingly nonexistent trail.

After the low buzz of conversation has faded into indistinguishable muttering the Varistha addresses you, though he doesn't actually take his eyes off the trail ahead. “Tell me honestly, Brother Abdul. You will face no persecution so long as you remain within these walls. Are you of the Aghtaki?” You frown, subtly. The scar on your cheek, though not necessarily a brand, is rather telling. He probably already assumes you were banished and really just wants to hear it from you. Then again, you might be able to convince him it was the result of some kind of accident or cruel prank.

>>34560366
If we make them suffer, i feel like they would hurt us or break the expensive oud.then a witty one liner about money well spent, when we ask about compensation

Would people be willing to part with some of our wealth once we return to the academy and have a talk with Megalos about building temples for Vatis to research/meditate on elements like earth nature or metal? This might be good for our PR faces and shit

>>34560402
You mean a witty one liner when we pull out another oud, because we spent all out money on ouds?

>>34560402
We would just spend that money to get another oud, they are gonna lose either way.
>>34560408
The problem is that the gods for those temples are dead/gone, so no one is gonna be taking care of them.
We would get better results by paying people to look for books about those elements.

>>34560201
Hey, Soma, what's this universe's version of Wonderwall? I know it exists in some form. Because it is infinite and all encompassing of all dimensions.

>>34560469
I don't think that would work out then.

>>34560449
Taken from the ask page.

>you've never heard of temples devoted to them. Not devoted on the god, but on the element itself, instead of monks we'd have schollar and vatis manning the place, we could ask the old man if that'd be ok before someone goes "absolutely haram" and goes to war or something stupid.

Soooo...what I'm getting from this is that there are temples, Vatis, and scholars dedicated to the concept of "Wonderwall," and that they are periodically wiped out by pissed people with good taste in music and possibly a deep-seated hatred of repetitive chords.

more like lucifer quest

You sigh. You've been expecting this question for a while, to be perfectly honest. “I am one of the Aghtaki, though I was falsely accused. Have you heard about the Shah ordering his son's gardens burned to the ground?” The Varistha nods his head. “I have, though I don't see what that has to do with our conversation.” You quicken your step to fall in beside him. “I accused the Shahzada of wasting the tribe's water to maintain his vast gardens and the Shahzada accused me of Slander in turn. The Shah presided over my case directly and found me guilty, as I'm sure many fathers would when faced with either consigning a stranger or his flesh and blood to wander the world without hearth or home. However, not a week later he turned around and did exactly as I suggested by burning down the gardens and putting an end to his son's wastefulness. Thus, proving me an innocent man.”

The Varistha stops in his tracks and fixes you with a skeptical stare. There is a long moment of silence as he considers what you've said. You feel him channel just the slightest bit of magic, a spell you can't identify discharging. Finally, he nods. “Very well, I believe your tale.” That was... surprisingly easy, actually. “However, I find it difficult to believe that the Shah would burn down his son's gardens solely based on your suggestion. Having known the man since he was an infant, he simply does not act against family so easily. I think it more likely the Shahzada did something to earn his father's ire.”

Sehzade resumes his stroll through the gardens, and you once more fall in beside him. “The battle you hosted in the sparing grounds was truly fascinating, a supreme example of skill. However, I must ask how you know so much about Rhynian tactics. The cavalry harrying the rear of your spear formations were what really gave away your knowledge. I recall vividly the heavily armored steeds of the Rhynians thundering across open fields, their enchanted armor caused me no end of trouble. The methods employed by the modern successor states are merely a shadow of the terror wrought by the Empire of old.”

>Just mention you're an avid reader and picked up a book about old Rhynian military tactics.
>Also dived quite a bit Rhynian ruins and met with people very knowledgeable about Rhynia

You're a little more hesitant answering this question, but the Varistha seems a reasonable sort. “When I was exploring an ancient Rhynian ruin, recently unearthed in a ruin north of Licae, I came across a curious device. Like a massive needle strapped to a generator, poised above a chair with a control panel. My curiosity prompted me to strap myself into the chair and activate the device, earning me a needle through the chest. It sent me on some sort of... vision quest, through the life of a Rhynian officer in training. It was very strange, and more than a little uncanny, but the knowledge gained has served me well.”

He gives you an admonishing look. “Foolhardy, to an extreme degree. Why on Earth would you strap yourself into a chair poised below a needle and expect good to come out of it?” You smirk. “Ah, but good did come of it. Didn't it?” The Varistha shakes his head. “A man may only stick his head into the mouth of a lion so many times before he is bit. Just because you survived the experience once does not mean it was a good decision.” You bristle, slightly. Since when were your decision his to criticize? He wasn't there, nor does he know you particularly well. You open your mouth to respond but you feel that burst of magic once more as he cast a spell you don't recognize.

(1/2)

He sighs as the magic dissipates. “Very well, I will drop the issue. Your decisions are your own to make. You have accumulated quite the gaggle of oddities within your... 'household'.” The way he says that always makes it sound disdainful, it's a little off-putting, really. “A twisted child, an incomplete experiment, and two human women of a very... Rhynian dress and manner.” The way he says Rhynian would almost make you think it some sort of curse. “Who are they, what are they capable of? I trust you to keep your degenerates in line but I at least wish to be aware of the dangers they pose.”

I like where this is going

Though the fact he insulted your friends does irritate you, you can at least understand why he's so bitter. He fought against the Rhynians, likely for centuries of his life. Not to mention he's the one in a position of power here, not you. At well over two thousand years old he's likely a Vatis of incomparable power, in addition to being the Varistha of this temple. With tall that in mind you concoct a polite, but firm refusal. “Sehzade, know that I mean no disrespect when I refuse to answer your question. I simply don't think it my place to speak for my companions. You are more than welcome to ask after their capabilities in person.”

He cast a glare your way, and once more cast that unfamiliar spell of his. This time there's much more power behind it, even though he didn't seem to channel all that much more vys. It seems to pass over you and through you before dissipating into the surroundings. “Very well, I will do just that. Now, I believe you have business to attend to, yes? A certain witch to see?” You nod your head. You'd forgotten how annoying Nature vatis could be. They always seem to have eyes everywhere. Your old Master used to constantly ask you about things you'd done when you were certain you were alone, like stealing a pear from a fruit stall or pushing your friends into the sea. The lack of privacy really got to you after a while. “Yes, my friend wishes for a sleep aid.” The Varistha waves a hand dismissively. “Very well then, go.”

Iron man relies on a sophisticated, high tech suit of armor and information feeds connected to virtually every single form of information transmission. In the original "Age of Ultron" Series, Hank Pym created Ultron and synced him up to the Avenger's network to do the Avengers' jobs. This caused Ironman a massive head-ache when his suits joined the robot horde and he was forced to use a low-tech stop-gap suit, even when the Iron man suits weren't directly connected to the Avengers' systems. In the upcoming Ironman movie, since there's no canon Hank Pym, Tony Stark creates Ultron. So yeah, he's gonna have a very, very bad day.

“Before I go, could I ask some questions of my own?” He nods his head, turning to face you fully for once. “You may ask me anything you like, Brother Abdul. You need not ask my permission.” He smiles in a very paternal sort of way, and you launch into your questions. “My friend, Sister Darzi, was very badly abused by a party of bandits. I rescued her and healed her wounds to the best of my ability but I fear she's been left rather badly scarred. As a result, she is self-conscious and nervous. I was wondering if you had any advice in regards to healing her scars, or just healing in general.”

The Varistha nods seriously. “Of course, anything for a noble goal.” You can't help but feel that was a somehow pointed comment, as if he finds some of your other goals somehow ignoble. You ignore it. “When healing extensive damage to one's body, it's always important to remember that you're not really sculpting the body. Really, you're just giving the body the energy it needs to repair itself without resorting to such desperate measures as generating scar tissue or what have you.” He waves a hand dismissively. “With that in mind, it's important to reinforce how you, or in this case your friend, saw themselves before their injury. If they are in an improper emotional state, or if they have come to see the injury as part of who they are, you will merely mutilate them without reason in removing the scar tissue.”

(1/4)

You cock your head to the side. “What constitutes an improper emotional state?” The Varistha clasps his hands behind his back. “Once, when I was a younger man, merely a few centuries old-” Merely. Merely a few centuries. It really strikes you just how young you are. You're not even thirty yet. “-I was healing a man who's lower body had been incinerated completely by the attack of an enemy vatis. His injury was recent, I don't recall exactly how recent. He was still reeling from the attack itself, dazed and not really all there. Instead of regrowing his lower half me and my fellow healers merely knit closed the wound. He died a few hours later.” The Varistha shrugs. “Thus, I would hypothesize that if the person you are attempting to heal is not fully aware and conscious of their surroundings it is far more difficult to properly regenerate a disfiguring wound.”

Well... that's rather grisly. Still incredibly useful information. You're really hope it never becomes relevant. “Do you have any recommendations for nature meditation? It is likely the next element I will attempt to learn, and tips from a Grandmaster would be appreciated.” The Varistha grins, a twinkle in his eye. “Of course. I have mainly focused on the mental aspects of nature magic, though I have not neglected the aspects relating to the manipulation of plant life.” As he says this, a date palm dips one of its ponderous branches towards the Varistha and before your eyes produces dozens upon dozens of flowers, which quickly metamorphose into hard, unripened dates. They continue to mature, finally turning into the squishy red fruits that so many enjoy. He plucks a handful, popping one into his mouth. Show off. The rest whither and fall off of the branch. Bastard didn't even offer you any.

(2/4)

“I would recommend first trying to sense what a plant feels. The wind through its leaves, a creature passing through its branches, a parasite eating away at its trunk. Once you have mastered these aspects, you can try to extend your own senses through the plant life around you. The mental aspects of Nature magic will come later, gradually.” He nods, popping another date into his mouth. “Any other questions?”

You're just about tired of talking to this old codger, but you do have one more question. “How have you managed to live so long without losing your sanity to the passage of time? Vatis a fraction of your age often must be put down for fear of the damage they could cause, yet here you are vividly recounting the events of a millennia ago.” He shakes his head slowly. “That, I cannot reveal. It is enough to say that I would not have lived as long as I have on my own.” The more you talk with this man the less you like him. “What reason do you have to conceal that knowledge? If you have found some exploit that allows you to escape that deterioration of the mind so many of our kind must deal with, why not share it?” The Varistha grins. “I'm sorry, Brother Abdul. I made an oath. It's simply not my secret to reveal. Just as your companion's abilities are not yours to expound upon.”

>>34563136
>saw themselves before their injury.

Damn, this will be really hard to do, and Darzi a shit.

Screw that plan.

What the hell does that even mean? Regardless, it seems unlikely that he'd be willing to budge on this issue. You bow out, eager to be away from the man. “Very well, Varistha. I will take my leave then. I wish you nothing but the best.” Sehzade bows in response, though not as deeply. “The same to you, Brother Abdul. Go peacefully.” You retreat from the gardens, making your way through the palms, ferns, and garden beds until you find the central pond again. It's far more sparsely populated than you remember it being, likely for fear of you once again playing a ballad on your oud. You can't blame them for fleeing.

It takes some searching but eventually you find the leading to the temple fortress that monk mentioned being in the gardens. It's a simple arched tunnel, the entrance framed with intricate carvings of soldiers standing guard with spear in hands. You pass through, and find yourself plunged into darkness. You have to keep your hand to the wall just to make sure you don't go walking into anything. You find yourself exiting into a musty, dimly lit, subterranean room. A single hatch lies in the ceiling and a rope ladder stretches from the edge of the hatch to the floor. As you press your foot against the bottom rung, you hear footsteps pounding against wooden floor boards and voices from above.

I should mention, in this case 'getting closer' basically entails climbing up the ladder but not pushing open the hatch, thus hiding isn't really an option. If they pulled open the hatch you'd be right there.

Can we spend vys to increase our hearing, so that we can listen in without getting closer?

>>34563336
You'd need to roll for it, and then spend the vys to increase the results of your roll.

If you were wearing your Rhynian armor you could spend vys beforehand to provide a significant bonus, and if you were wearing your Hiacian armor it wouldn't be an issue.

You pull yourself carefully up the ladder, trying not to cause too much noise. The wooden rungs complain under your weight but you manage it without alerting the voices above. You stop just below the hatch and crane your neck, trying to catch any tidbits of the conversation. They must be getting closer, because you can make out their conversation fairly distinctly.

“-gers. You know what happened after the last band came into town.” The other voice, feminine you think but you're not entirely certain, responds. “Oh please, Anwar. They're here to serve the temple. I'm sure they'll be nothing but polite.” The other speaker, Anwar, responds. “The last group came to serve the temple too, and they burned down the inn and three shops next to it. Before them came the witch, and we all know how she turned out.” The woman speaks again. “She serves an important role within the community. Didn't she provide you that potion to help with your-” The man cuts her off. “Who told you about that?” The woman sounds confused. “What do you mean? I thought it was common knowledge...”

The man lets out a string of expletives, apparently cursing that blabber mouth wife of his. Slowly, the two voices fade out of earshot and you wait a few moments to make sure they're gone. You touch your hand against the hatch and channel just a touch of vys, causing it to slide open slowly and allow you through.

You find yourself emerging into some sort of cramped, fairly private room. A hookah sits in one corner surrounded by pillows. You seem to be emerging from the only square of tiled flooring that isn't covered by thick, plush rugs. Once you've passed through the hatch you press your hand to the tile once more and channel vys, prompting it to slide closed. That done, you waltz out of the room calmly.
(1/2)

You pass from the room into a small hallway, a side door allowing you into the courtyard. A number of guards patrol the walls, but they don't pay you any mind. The gates swing open as you approach and you pass through them into the village beyond. It seems as though everyone is beginning to close up shop, at least all the shops on the main thoroughfare are. The bakery you saw this morning when you rolled into town has long since closed its doors and taken in its sign. You pass quickly through town unmolested, making your way towards the beach where the Apothecary's hut is supposed to be.

To be honest, there isn't really much of a 'beach'. More of a collection of rocks and cliffs with some sand tossed around. The only structure you can see is a rickety shack propped up on stilts, currently half submerged in water. It's large, but ramshackle. Additions have been tacked onto the main structure haphazardly and seem mere moments away from falling into the see. Smoke billows from a small, metal chimney which extends from the ceiling, but there are no other indications it's inhabited.

You pick your way across the rock-strewn beach to the Apothecary's hut, climbing the short staircase up to the porch. It groans and complains with every step you take, doing nothing to help your nerves. You raise a fist and knock on the door, but it merely cracks open as your fist makes contact.

Also do we have the capability to build this woman a solid house with our Vatis abilities? I feel like we would need strong nature to create a living tree house or nxtlvl earth for a nice stone building. Neither of which we have.

Maybe that's an idea for a training excercise though, meditating by the sea trying to create something carefully while also trying to avoid the waves destroying stuff mid-creation.

You're fairly unphased by this sort of thing. Manipulate is a very basic spell that requires hardly any vys to use. You push the door the rest of the way open and step inside. You find a woman standing before a hearth, the flames dancing unnaturally as she sits before them. She has glaringly white hair and is dressed in a manner you'd typically associate with mourning, a black robe and a hair net decorated with raven's feathers, a white rose in her hair. She's pale for a Samjan, and the white film covering her eyes marks her as blind. You'd estimate that she's roughly of an age with your master, somewhere around five hundred years old.

Your eyes are almost forcefully drawn to the dancing flames, they seem to depict a vaguely masculine figure wielding a spear accosted on all sides by warped, twisted creatures with sharp teeth and glowing eyes. Demons, or monsters of some sort. The figure tries to ward the figures off with his spear, but one of them slips through his guard and the spear-wielder seems to absorb it into his chest. The figure goes limp, and the monsters swarm him, each one absorbed in turn. When the figure stands again it has sharp teeth and glowing eyes.

The flames are snuffed out at once, the room plunged into darkness. The next moment candles flare to life all around the room, lighting it relatively brightly. Innumerable bottles, vials, jars, and pouches line the walls and burden shelves. The center of the room is dominated by a long table on which alien equipment sits, the purpose of each individual device a mystery to you. You note that magic seems to radiate from behind a door to your left, it's strong enough that the area seems to take on a subtle blue shade in comparison to the rest of the room.

Cool, if you ever decide to do an artdump at some point that'd be super cool. Like a mediafire or a tumblr or something would be pretty good.

The apothecary stands, slowly. “Welcome to my humble abode, traveler.” She says, without really looking at you. Rather, her eyes are focused towards the floor. It gives her a rather demure appearance, even though you're relatively certain this woman is anything but demure. “What can this humble alchemist do for you?”

>>34566110
Alright fair enough, but the insane yelling in the face of danger is like us

You stare with some small amount of wonder at the shelves of vials around you. “I think I'd like to browse your wares. Tell me, what was that display I saw when I first entered?” The woman grins mischievously. “Ahh, I wasn't certain you'd seen that little demonstration of mine.” Suddenly her voice sounds like that of a much younger woman, vibrant and full of life. “A simple ritual, when you have the proper components. A combination of a certain plant extract with the divine hoama and just the slightest touch of magic. Sometimes the flames will purport the future, and other times it will merely show the caster that which their heart most desires. Not the most reliable method of predicting the future, but I preform the ritual nightly regardless.”

You raise an eyebrow. Only the priest of Surya know how to extract the divine haoma. “I don't suppose that was my future predicted in the flames then, was it?” The woman shakes her head. “That, I'm afraid, is not for me to tell. What you see in the flames and what I see in the flames may be two entirely different things. It's a highly personal experience.” That's not very helpful, actually. “Well, I suppose I'll be sure to use my sword should I ever face any demons in battle.” The woman smiles sympathetically. “If only our demons were always so easily bested with a blade. You wanted to see my wares?”

(1/3)

You nod, then recall that the woman is blind. You have the inkling of an idea that she's probably skilled enough in Nature magic that she can see you, but just to be on the safe side. “Yes, that's correct.” She turns away, bustling over to one of her shelves and picking up a number of bottles to swirl the liquids inside around absentmindedly. “Were you looking for anything specific, or did you just want to see what I had prepared?” You watch her curiously while she starts dragging bottles off the shelf and setting them down in front of her. “I'm looking specifically for a sleeping potion. A friend was wounded and in order to heal her I'll need to remove a fair amount of scar tissue.”

The Apothecary nods, setting one bottle aside and pulling an empty vial off the shelf. She fills the vial with the thick, milky substance inside the bottle and then sets the bottle back on the shelf, corking the vial. “A simple enough potion. For five gold its yours. Now, as for the rest of my wares-” She steps aside, turning to face you and gesturing to the attractive array of bottles she's laid out on the table. There are five in all. “From left to right, I have here a tincture to improve the flow of vys within one's body and thus increase the power one may put behind a spell. It also enhances certain... aspects of the male anatomy. A favorite amongst the local wives.” She grins cheekily, before moving on. “A potion to fortify oneself against poisons and disease, quite potent. I would caution against using more than a small amount as even the most useful of medicines is a poison if one takes too much.”

(2/3)

She picks up the third bottle fondly. “This is a tonic intended to alleviate pain and swelling, I cannot tell you how useful it is, really. I take a spoonful in the morning and my back doesn't complain for the rest of the day.” She sets it back down and gestures to to the next bottle. “This one is the oil extracted from a local herb that grows high in the mountains. It reduces fatigue and encourages physical as well as mental well-being. Another potion I take daily, the only reason I've stayed sane this long I'm sure.” Finally she rest her hand on the top of the last bottle, one filled with a sickly green mash. “Finally we have an herbal poultice, foul tasting but useful, I assure you. It allows one to more easily open their third eye, so to speak. Makes meditation much, much easier. Unfortunately, the side effects can be rather severe...”

>What would you like in addition to the sleeping potion?

>Spellpower Potion
>Constitution Potion
>Painkiller (If taken after being wounded in combat, reduces your damage level by one. e.g. from Severe to Moderate.)
>Vitality Extract
>Herbal Poultice
>Nothing

>>34566260
What kind of price range are we looking at?
can we buy the place out without a care?

>>34566260
>Herbal Poultice

>Spellpower Potion

>>34566260
Ask to see the good shit, what's behind that doorway with all the magic shit in it?

>>34566260
>>Spellpower Potion
>>Constitution Potion
>>Vitality Extract
>>Herbal Poultice
Ask to see the good shit.

>>34566289

>2 gold/dose
>10 silver/dose
>5 silver/dose
>8 gold/dose
>10 gold/dose

>>34566260
I am unimpressed with the lack of flirting with the Cougar.

We must mack, a little, to charm her into a discount for that sweet ALL THE POTIONS. It's not like we don't have enough room in our cape.

>>34566260
>>Vitality Extract
>>Herbal Poultice
Check out the good shit.

>>34566342
So, we have Large stacks of cash.
How about buying multiple doses of all of the potions?

>>34566367
This means, to ask her for the good potions.

>>34566260
Ask her what the side affects are?

>>34566260
Ask her for a book on alchemy or her recipe book.

>What are the side effects?
>Ask to see the good shit.
I'll write for these two and then pose the options again.

>>34566502 Thanks

Since it was the flames dancing and it was something only priests of Surya know should we ask her about being a flame Vatis?

Can we ask her if she could make a poison/anti poison out of the glands we've got?

>>34566260
The last two seem to hinder and aid sanity loss respectively!

What should we do??

Herbal poultice to help Chryssa's meditation, right?

>>34566502
>Alchemical Uses of Pidjatan Plantlife(might want to read it first)
>12x Monster Venom Glands (Lethal)
Can we haggle with this?

>>34566382
Yeah, this. None of this is even touching the bank.

>>34566621
You just want her to see the three stooges don't you?

>>34566632

>Alchemical Uses of Pidjatan Plantlife(might want to read it first)
>12x Monster Venom Glands (Lethal)

Why sell those if they're both useful?

>>34566621
>master told us to not do shit while meditating
>lets fucking give shit to chyrs!
No.

>>34566632
Hey, I ripped these poison glands from some... plant-abomination. Want some?

>>34566660
Sounds legit.
>>34566658
Well Soma's writing the side effects so hopefully we'll have a definite no or not after all our guy IS partially insane...

>>34566260
Soma I'm thinking of you https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IJ38IzLo5Nc

>>34566695
The side effects aren't a fucking problem, its the fact that you won't be able to meditate without it, master has to smoke every time he meditates now remember?

>>34566656
because they are usefull in the hands of people who know how to use it.
Like mortia may know what to do with it. but here and now we gain some haggling room.
Poison not found in this world = good shit.
since no one should have a remedy for it.

So apparently I'm pants on head retarded becuase I already have a dropbox. In fact I apparently had it for 4 weeks and more or less all the pics I've posted here are there as well as asome others.

I also have no idea how to properly link it or organize it on a tablet. So yeah

>>34566735
Oh fuck.

When you do lemme know artanon.

>>34566717
>master has to smoke every time he meditates now remember?

that is a side effect

>>34566717
Yeah, not being able to meditate without it IS a side effect of using it..

>>34566753
Its a side effect of using a substance while mediating, nothing to do with the substance itself, probably, some shit is probably more addictive

You know what we should do?
Grab the crowbar, start dumping those hazard crates and popping them open.
*Surely* there will we be some alchemy-style stuff in there!

>>34566729
1. We found it in this world
2. It's really fucking potent
3. Chrys could use some on her arrows us on our weapons etc

we should get it distilled rather than sell it

>>34566776
Our master is literally an opium addict. He would get addicted regardless of whether he meditated while smoking it or not.

>>34566753
Thats a crippling addiction, not a side affect.

>>34566792
Well yeah, but he could still meditate without it

>>34566768
We don't know if thats the side affect.

>>34566717
pretty much this.

Also going heavy into metal should give us plenty of room to not go crazy.
Also thinking about it. Could in theory when A samjan gets old as a waster grandmaster cut his arm off and regrow a younger healthier arm.
Rinse and repeat for all his limbs.
We live to a super old age, but im sure joints and what not aren't the best even re healing them.

>>34566788
This, so much fucking this.

>>34566806
I'm pretty sure the issue is that he can't focus without opium, and you can't meditate if you can't focus.

>>34566822
Soma can we get a word of God on this one?

>>34566813
Its all about your mental image.

>>34566819
Poison waryah Chrys smh u even kno bout scary poison mace she hulk grill dragonz need to fear dis grill.

>>34566840
What?

>>34566788
>>34566819
>12 glands
I'm not saying we should give all away, but we should be able to part with 1 or 2 glands.

>>34566830
Your master is unable to meditate without opium because he's unable to focus if he's going through withdraw. The fact he meditated so often while smoking opium didn't help anything.

>>34566788
you're right on
1
Idk why you have to point out that it's potent it's clearly lethal.
3. We've 12 glands not 2, Selling a few won't hurt us.
Chys may be learning poison soon. So she won't need glands if she wants to poison people.
As we can already poison people we won't need it.

>>34566867
So he has a crippling addiction, why doesn't he go cold turkey for a few decades?

>>34566880
Why would he? It's readily available and doing so would interfere with his work.

Nigga she was a hunter
She is literally the only person in our party with a bow
Are you daft?

>>34566897
Master cares about his work?

>>34566876
Maybe we could have it all distilled, and put into a glass sphere or something, for better throwing into dragon's mouths.

>>34566921
Since its a plant gland, i want to know if we can grow a tree/monster from it and harvest the glands.

>>34566920
Of course! Most of his work relates to inventing better ways to fuck with people.

>>34566876
>Chys may be learning poison soon. So she won't need glands if she wants to poison people.
As we can already poison people we won't need it.

Do note that you need Vys to do that is there any reason why you wouldn't want to save some vys for something else rather than poisoning if there was a way too?

fuck I think that came out wrong I'm too drunk for this

>>34566900
I am dafty duick

>>34566956
How hard would it be, to grow the glands with nature?

>>34566954
Oh God.
so we can just pour nature Vys into the glands until we have a horrifying gland farm, which we stick in our cloak and harvest from time to time.

>>34566962
No at least I get it. Instead of using Poison Effect and wasting Vys we can use say, a poison dagger or vial of distilled plant poison right?
