Quest Log :
>Main Quest :
Survive and thrive.
>Side objectives :
Understanding Inner Gates : There are four gates to break through to rise a level in second stage. You have to gather Qi, and then spent the gathered Percentage to break through.
10 is not enough for first gate. 12 is enough with Improved Phoenix-Qi bonus. 20 wastes Qi.
20 wastes more Qi for the second gate than it waste for first. 14 wastes Qi.
33 is not enough for third gate; it becomes enough with your Phoenix-Qi bonus, before all upgrades. 37 wastes Qi.
44 is the "golden number" for fourth gate.
Keep the Wei Ball rolling : your pupil Wei Ball seized two ingots of stormiron. If he doesn't craft a strong weapon pair in the next two years, this opportunity will go to waste.
Self Made Man : You found a way to increase your energy efficiency in the form of Phoenix Qi. You're close to turn it into your own Spiritual Art style.
Mechanic : each Breakthrough on Phoenix-related technique can increase your soon-to-be spiritual art. You can also work on it and make steady progress on the side.
Supply Issue : your sect needs Spiritual Beads with Transplanhumance comming back as their already low reserves are stretching thin and thinnger. Good thing you found a way to reamwalk in the Astral Plan
Stormwood Bow : you have a fine piece of wood, ready to be turned into some weaponry
Rising Chicks : you have a cost-effective method to send kids in growth realm - and talented kids in town that might be interrested.
Second Stage Fusion : Improve your spirit with a fusion while you're second stage - 1/4 fused; 2 fusion candidates
Cultivate your Garden : With the help of Moss and your Treasured Wandering World Tree, you want to develop your Immortal Cave [great progress so far]
A companion on the Way : The Phoenix Ascendancy poem mentions three potential worthy mates for the Phoenix : the Lotus, the Qirin and the Dragon.
Secret of the Phoenix Ascendancy : The old text seems to be some kind of map pointing to a place between Stable Lotus Harbor City and Desert's Crystaline Haven [the town where the kid with the Steel-Thunder-Growth Map and Southern Branch of Tamers of Hundred Beasts] . However, with the current travel ban, investigation is impossible.

>Debt :
2 Tea Debt Bathias
1 Realmwalk Bathias
1 Realmwalk [Tau Ryel, Nettle, Snowflake, Feken Doshi]

Twin insights : The storm that almost broke you is now a very part of you, by the link to your bounded Phoenix (Just... Don't think this isn't a real beast but like the soulless ghost of the Hawk you sacrified and heavily modded to fit your needs...)
This part is taken, unravelled, analyzed, until you are confident in how to mix the wildly different, high level, concepts of Phoenix and Storm, fiddling a bit with your inner Phoenix Qi-Construct.
In your dantian, turmoils as your breakthrough-helping Phoenix Qi Construct also reflect the changes - surely, it had grew stronger. Significantly so. Probably have something to do with the amount of Storm-related energy nearby this year.
>Found one of the two "Mystery box" related to your Phoenix Qi Construct
Then, for the insight regarding your poem and your understanding of Phoenix, the solution is quite simple.
Phoenix is related to your Growth as a cultivator. Growth is linked to the Phoenix, able to rise over everything else.
>Phoenix evolved into Rising Phoenix
This change is insignificant. Infinily profound.
You were born a mundane kid. No family. No fortune. No fate. No bloodline. Shit-poor Dantian-gate split.
Granted, you always felt like you didn't really belonged. Not like Dhundan or Ai. That your achievements were normal - Sin Din, Man Din and Yi Norm caught back to you, right?
This were some delusion. You're good. You're great. You're worthy of the title of Young Genius. Of great fighter. You just have to take things at your speed.
There is no emergency to break through - this is just some far-pissing contest. You have to progress and lay the foundation for the future, which you're already doing : you should take time to find spirits to bind while you're second stage, maybe craft your bow before the turnament, and keep doing what you're doing.
After all, if Dhundan, LienWen YanEr and JiaLin, Ping Jun outgrows you in raw power because they're better than you on that aspect, you just have to create perfect counter to win. That seems doable : even if you lose this year, the next three... Growth Skills will avoid bottleneck in foundation as you've witnessed in Golden Skystone village. Then, their supposedly strong ramp will let you overcome even more advanced foes.
Ironic it is : what was holding you back to the ground all this time was yourself. Now? The sky seems the limit. Nah. You can go further - you've already been to space after all.

>Mental Health topped.

4th week of seclusion :
No breakthrough this time. Just paced Qi accumulation - another tenth of your Dantian is filled.
You can't help but smile at how regular your progress went. This seclusion let you benefit strongly. Time to go back to your sect.

Leisurely walking, you cycle through what needs to be done. There's your teapot tingling, for once. The pills for Snake mistress. And all those other things.
Heading home, you were mentally prepared for your siblings have horrifically performed while you were meditating...
>HORRENDOUS roll array for Dhundan, Ai, Yi, Sin Din, Man Din.
QW : "What do you mean, one tenth of a Dantian in one month? I filled 4 of them, starting empty!
Dhundan : - Tryharder. And you hoarded the Banner all for yourself.
QW - That's... my soulbound item?
Dhundan : - I wasn't done using it."

Wait, you've caught back? Thanks Heaven for seclusion.
It's been 4 years and 3 months since you've joined the Eastern Branch of Tamers of Hundred Beasts.
This month, you will...
>Try hard. Doesn't matter what kind of soft, cope feeling you got, you have an unique chance of catching back to Dhundan and Ai, breaking through before them.
>Take it slow. Just work on your foundation and sort all simple sect business.
This includes giving pills and talking to Wolf Mistress, settling a tea ceremony [who for? Do you aim to trade anything?], discuss with people that have fusion to take care of, and all that stuff you were too stressed to handle with a cool head

>>6308349
>Take it slow

We are back in buissness.

Okay. . . Lets think.

Breakthrough is a time for Evening out our techniques, We should practice our meteor hammer skill and our bow skill to put them on our level.

I think this month is the tourniment? No, 3 month period is transhumance, so 3 months. Uhhhh

>Talk to Ryota to sell a tea ceremony/Growth realm visit, We want ingredients for our Bow and Wei ball's gear, but he is the political operator, where's the biggest bang for our buck that helps the sect.

We have 3 tea debts to expunge, that leaves like. . . 3 tea?
Realms walk is an issue but we can expunge 4 debts like that with the growth trip.

>>6308367
Yes, you have 3 months

>>6308349
>Take it slow. Just work on your foundation and sort all simple sect business.
Let's settle all manner of debts here and now.

>>6308349
>>6308367
Let's go caught back up.
>Take it slow. Just work on your foundation and sort all simple sect business.

The order of business not in any order.

Do all the binding. (Talk with Ryota when we do tea and ask if he wants to do a fusion with his boar)
Craft the bow.
Give pills to the snake mistress
Training Tau Ryel in the astral arts.
Sending kids to the growth realm, I'd say call around the various sects that wants to chip in / pay us in money. Throw on getting some time on the growth banner.
>talking to Wolf Mistress (for what I forget)
Pay tea debt. call upon level 99 Aris and his niece and give tea for somethin.
Craft Wei Balls Weapons.

>>6308414
I'm pretty sure he means the Snake mistress for her pills.


So lets order some of these that we can do first.


Tea debt [we get 6 slots], 3 are owed to people but one guy has 2. So we can operate under assumption of 3 slots to use/sell.
Golden eye? In exchange for materials but cash money is good too.
Ryota for shit for Tau?
Giving it to the Snake mistress would also let us knock out "give her the pills" in a single action.


growth realm walk takes 10 people, we have 4 people we owe a run who can benefit, but it isn't a garrenteed move. So tell them that this does absolve our debt but they might not travel to the best first realm realm. that leaves 6 places to sell.
We can rake the town for coals over that. [Reminded that these bastards said that the chance to do so was worth a first tier and second tier reward from the entire town's budget.] We just have to aim slightly lower than that market price.
Cash is preferable here.

Bindings take a while, what can we reasonably charge from our fellows. . . Favours? Favours feels like a valid currency that isn't extremely expensive, but it's expensive enough to be worthwhile exerting social power over the sect.

Bow and Wei ball weapons need to be last on our list while we gather a few more items.

>>6308423
for tea favours. . .

2 of our spare, I think YanEr and Ping Jun make just sense.
Maybe Moss, Moss is second stage now and only recently at that. So it's now of good use.

>>6308349
>Take it slow. Just work on your foundation and sort all simple sect business.

Oh yah I figure the other mystery box will be an ichor breakthrough.

Ichor Phoenix Storm

>>6308576
That's not that one.

>>6308594
Well. uh. I honestly have no idea what it could be then. I'm guessing a different affinity maybe.

>>6308612
But I had an idea how to shape this Phoenix Qi Construct. We shape it into wings. To carry Word forward. That would be so dope.
The wings are like a cloak as well. Dope as fuck.

>>6308612
It's one of those you guys identified in the poem. Won't say more.

>>6308616
Animal - Beast, Tiger, dragon, scales, bear, fox, roc, Leviathan, qilin

Body - Eye, strength, turtle, wolf, roc, balance, wide, beauty, enduring(?), might(?), fight(?), wing, boundless

Mind - Wisdom, cunning, soul, spirit, harmony, song(?), spirit

Element - Earth, shadow, time and space, mist, lotus, moonlight(Maybe? has moon), sun(meaning we could use that one hammer style), wind, light, ocean(?), life and death, ashes (?), celestial , night(?) stars(?), sky(?), jade

Other - Army, Buddha, Demons, fate(?),

And Gm clarifications
>Animal
Valid : Beast, Tiger, bear, fox, turtle, wolf,
Valid "Adjacent" : dragon Leviathan, qilin, roc
Unvalid : Scales
>Body -
Valid : Eye, strength, balance, beauty, enduring(Stamina), fight(Fighting Intent)
Unvalid : boundless, Wing.

Mind -
Valid : Song (Music), Shrewd (Wisdom, cunning)
Unvalid spirit, harmony,
>Element
Valid : Earth, shadow, time and space, mist, soul, wind, light, life and death, jade
Adjacent : lotus, moon, sun, ocean, sky
Unvalid : ashes, celestial , night stars

Other :
Adjacent - Army, Buddha, Demons
Unvalid - fate

So this should cool it down.

>>6308751
Now I'm gonna make a case that it's Wolf.
The rules of the world base on our understanding, remember in a previous thread how the QM said that if we got that polearm skill we could have fused our weapons together.

Words have as much effect against another word as people's understanding applies.

And wolf is a bit we have kept an important part with. . . Though we don't really focus on the wolf to make sure we don't accidently reveal it.

If not wolf then Shrewd, because that's the first augmentation we made to the soul of the Hawk. Which we didn't name did we.
We should name the pendants.

>>6308751
>>6308753
Thanks for the copy paste.

Let's see, including yours, I think there could be a few others. It'll have to be a high affinity. Cause only when two high-affinity items mix do we get interesting results, such as phoenix ichor for phoenix tears.

This rules out a few on the list. And I think it isn't an element except time and space.
Also, the body, except for fighting intent.
I think it could be dragon, qilin, sky, fighting intent, life, time, and space also. And of those, the sky is the most likely, as it deals with storms and the phoenix.

The question would be to consider how to test these theories.

>>6308781
I mean it could be dragon, ties into the whole thread link we made with the monarch lady and Royal Phoenix has a nice ring to it.

>>6308781
It's not sky or life or time.
We have not practiced any of them, and we lack any strong theme to them.

Remember that the ability was made before we knew about our storm affinity. Hmm. . Jade and Shadow are in the meteor hammer style and the jade is in the hammer. So Jade may be an idea. Fighting intent is a maybe

as we're discussing and I bought Fire Emblem 3 House and nowhere close to start writing the update, I'd add a few thing.
- Each keyword spent in the Spiritual Art improves its use for breakthrough anyway to reward investment in it (require either actions or Breakthrough choice as well as making thematic sense)
- Storm got a bonus-mystery-box because it's the most "Firepower" keyword you've got Tied with another one, but that would enter the realm of story spoilers and QW seems not having understood that and his understanding/exposure to said other keyword is too low
- There's another Keyword that is very suited in my opinion. So suited it would have its own unique benefit that's better than "Number goes brrrr" - while also making sense in the technique.
- Please bear in mind that Storm include Wind, Lightning and Elemental (elements made tangible, an Elemental Strombolt for example could be turned into a sword blade by a smith)
- Following your discussion, I have absolutely no clue on how to add a Wolf into a Phoenix-centric art.

>>6308783
>>6308797
>>6309016
Boys I think I got the other mystery-box Truefire from our Metal-melting Truefire. (which I think we should add the keyword wolf to)

For the very suited Ill have to think on the options already talked about in the various subjects that have come up such as from the crafting event, the poem, and current known arts.

>>6309016
So we can safely discard the animals keyword, bar 3. Dragon, Quilin, Lotus for obvious reasons.

I'm moving back towards shrewd, But I'll throw in a wild card. "Determination/persistence" as clear representation for our little cultivation addict. That in a breakthrough method is surely an idea.

>>6309049
Yeah, Truefire makes sense.
Can't remember our aptitude but I do remember that it is a depth of insights and abilities.

>>6309049
Truefire isn't in the poem silly
Meaning it was the storm's "alternative". You won't get a second time the mystery box bonus; however a Signature Spell : Rising Phoenix Truefire Storm definitely sounds interresting. Even better with the missing word.

>>6308614
Also, Rising Phoenix's Feathery Cloak seems valid craft.

>>6309062
Tease us to death will you? That missing word will be on my mind until we figure it out.

>>6309068
Just think about the thermatic relevance.

>>6308614
while I'm all for the manifestation of secret arts as armour and weaponry, I can't help but feel that we are lacking a strong defensive option

>>6308341
So we have a bit of a lack of pills for Growth/Phoenix, so we should make the most of those with a method liiiiike

Phoenix poem, Phoenix dance with Bow skill and Concealed meteor swarm. Atris' pointers stacks with the pills, and might let us trigger the other skills in turn.

After that, and before we find a way to make soem cash for more pills, we can really put on the;
Snake body/Poisoner's self trial and Trueflame martial art.

we have more than enough pills to make beastbound fighter and juggernaught magnus combo work.

>>6309069
Having reread the poem in quest 5 here are my ideas
>Rebirth
>Wisdom
>Grace
>Guardian(s)
>Flight
>Hope
>Legend(s)
>Gold
>Heavens
>Spirit
>Pride
>Sun
>Cycle
>Destiny
>Hatmony

>>6309126

wisdom is shrewd.
Flight though? that does have a ring to it. Rising Phoenix, eh? seems like a simple idea that works.

Destiny is like fate, so probably not allowed

>>6309126
>Rebirth
Holy shit guys this is literally the entire gimmick of a Phoenix wouldn't one of the words be this one?

>>6309248
....ok yeah it'd absolutely make sense

>>6309248
. . . we DID have our entire identity wiped out at age 5.

And we rebuilt ourselves a new identity with Phoenix

>>6309248
>>6309250
>>6309252
There is definitely some plans involving Rebirth.
However, that's clearly out of your grasp for now

>>6309428
I resume flight as my pose

>>6309016
>Fire Emblem 3 House
>Qm grace us with an update so we may at least vote on what to do this month

>>6310513
I'll do my best.

First point of business : work on your Foundation.
You quickly notice that out of closed door seclusion, your efficiency drop. However, it lets you closely monitor Tau Ryel to help her awake the potential of her Growth Sneak Hood.
Sadly, no Breakthrough for her or you. The month result in a mere 9% more Qi in your Dantian - bringing you exactly halfway there after your oh-so-effective seclusion.
On the same Training Ground, Boyd have crafted his Wooden-Jade Giant-Eye of the Storm Chakram : an impressive - and currently trying to piece together a suitable style.
In the meantime, YiChen clings to the elder boy, pestering him with questions regarding his own practice.
He seems quite clueless and fails to benefit from the tutoring. Oh, well.

Outside of cultivation, you finally dedicate time for settling many of your pending things.
First thing first : your gift for Snake Mistress
QW : "Snake Mistress... Let me give you those.
Maya Tao : - Two golden balls... Your family jewels or something?
QW : - Huh? Why are you laughing?
Maya Tao : - ... Don't worry about not getting the joke. What's those?
QW : - Paid Young Uncle Soulgaze to make me some fertility pills.
Maya Tao : - You know that won't work with two guys?
QW : - Well, there's not two guys involved! They're for you.
Maya Tao : - Oh, you and me? Bold move, kid.
QW : - I can tell you're being mean. It's for you and you alone... No, that won't work. You and whoever, as it failed with the Golden Skystone Patriarch.
Maya Tao : - Thank you."
She tried to joke and tease you, but you feel she deeply appreciated the completely unexpected gift.
>Consequence : Snake mistress took her leave for Golden Skystone Village.

Of course, you also have to organize a Tea Party. You owe some to Boyd and Bathias. Then you really want to benefit from the other ones. You ask Ryota to intercede in your behalf to the town for fulfilling that goal.
QW : "I want ingredients for crafts. Making a Bow and Wei Ball's future gear. You're the political operator, where's the biggest bang for our buck that helps the sect?
Ryota : - What if I take one spot and provide ALL materials for the Beast Spirit Fusions you'll perform this month? Then, I'll do my best for the next ones."
That will save you your Elemental Stormwood as well as your Obsidian Stormwood. Good.
QW : "Granted. As long as the two other guest can provide me this :"
You've given it quite the thought, and made a list of materials.

Wei Ball got ingots of Stormiron Steel, Growth, Thunder. Crafting will give one of it Shield, the second Axe.

One of the keyword of ingredients doesn't fit your needs? You can bridge it. Let's say you want to add the Dagger keyword from Vegetal Cristal Dagger.
You can provide it by using your Branch of Wandering World Tree as a bridge : Binding it to the fabric with Growth, using the Spiritual Plant keyword as a bridge toward Vegetal Cristal Dagger.
You can use as much "bridges" as you want.
Cheat words :
"Spiritual" can bind with Arcana, Spiritual Strength, Spiritual Resistance, Divination, Astral Self, Movement, Illusion, Virtue, Faith
"Mental" can bind with Shrewd, Mental Resistance, Pain, Social, Strategy, Commerce, Music, Calligraphy, Intent
"Body" can bind with Fighter's eye, Strength, Resistance, Stamina, Arms, Legs, Balance, Attractiveness, Danse

If you aim for anything holding "Storm", you have to roll above 35 (else your vote will be dumped).
If you aim for anything holding "Giant" you have to roll above 60 (leftovers from Kaijuly are still sold).

As I expect much discussion, that will let you sort things out.

>>6311580
so in previous threads we saw the value in using the materials to make a thing for Wei balls gear,

But do we want to use that valuable item-. . ehh we probably should so that the growth aspect isn't wasted.
But we have other uses for the branch, like a growth trip.

>>6311593
Growth is 95+
And the next update regarding the month feature a monetized trip to growth realm. So don't sweat hoarding some growth-aligned things

>>6311580
So to make Wei ball's stuff, would involve;

Yah base is Storm, Steel, Growth
Bind off of growth branch of wood and take one keyword.
Branch off wood and take storm
Branch off Growth again and add a phoenix feather for.
Growth, Phoenix, steel, Storm, Growth tree branch word(Now that tree has improved that means more keyword choice? question mark?) With the 6th(and 5th if we don't like branch options) open.

So instead we should probably focus on getting items for our own bow.
Making it a Pheonix item is a tough ask, but it will have storm in there. If we are clever then we can avoid needing to roll for storm stuff by asking for thunder, which auto binds and ISNT a key word.

Our arrow art is wind, pheonix,. . Hmm

>>6311627
the bow has like 3 open words, elemental could be a good one I think. Like produce it's own arrows or some shit from storm.

Maybe I say we use the elemental stormwood to add Elemental to the item
Then something like Body, astral self, Mental. [Keep astral self]
And someone else can branch off this with Intent?

Actually I missed this that crafting would add Bow in there.
Hmm, and we can't alter the base keywords like "eye" to bind it to a more open word like Body.

I think the last 2 words ought be Astral self and Elemental.

Which leaves us free to pick HOWEVER many free items we want for the future.

>>6311645
>My ID i0ttgf+s, Is getting Body, Astral Self, Mental material

>>6311627
>Yah base is Storm, Steel, Growth
Stormiron is Thunder.
I know, scam.

It occurs to me, that if we wanted to be cheeky, We could all use our choices to get Spiritual, mental, body items for future usages.

>>6311652
. . . .absolutely a scam. But we have Obisdion stormwood, so that can bind.

>>6311653
I'll let your one slide because of oversight.
>Starting from now, Mental, Spiritual and Body require a 40+ roll (else material opportunity is wasted)

>>6311580
For Wei Ball's Weapon He's got the Starting keywords

Steel, Growth, Thunder for both weapons.

Now We have one branch of the wandering world tree.

For the shield, I'd like to bridge off of StormObsidian and using the thunder keyword and take strom off the material.
For Shield, Steel, Growth, Storm
>I'd like to find a thunder boar which would be mundane for.
For Shield, Steel, Growth, Storm, Boar.
>Then go for a yolo blind for thunder body root. (Thunder, body, Plant)
And take body (40+ Roll)

For the final, Shield, Steel, Grotwh, Storm, Boar.

----

For the axe.

We use the Wandering World Tree branch
and use the keyword Growth tie in (and handle) using wood on the elemental stormwood.

For Axe, Thunder, Growth, Steel, and Elemental

Then take the other mundane keyword I forgot to form storm, which will be off the world tree keyword.


Making it Axe, Steel, Storm, Growth,

Next step, slap on Spiritual using the plant tag and finally yolo for Giant material.

To create, Axe, Steal storm, Growth, Spiritual, Giant


For QW I say. we do.

Storm, Wood, Eye, Bow, so really only two keywords, which honestly. Is a pretty easy craft.

We do wood hawk feather is mundane, tie in a phoenix bridging feather.

For Storm, Wood, Eye, Bow, Phoenix if only we could slap on another feather for gowth I'd fuckin do it.

Alas Eye (whatever other mundane wood for the sixth fill) as a safe bet and mke a six word item. what do you guys think?

>>6311787
forgot id ID: ZWalGgVc)

Per my notes:

Wei Ball has talent in Horse, Boar, Axe, Shield, Steel, and Thunder. So I guess we could add an animal (iron boar or something) or try to give him something new, but his base stormiron already fits him well for his two items.

I'm guessing that we want Phoenix and Growth added to the Bow, which is 6 keywords (Storm, Wood, Eye, Bow, Phoenix, Growth).

>Wood, Spiritual Plant, Feather

That should allow binding to both our World Tree stick for Growth, and a Rising Phoenix Feather for Phoenix (2). ie. tie my item's wood to the stormwood, tie my item's feather to the phoenix feather, and tie my item's spiritual plant to the World Tree's spiritual plant.

>>6311580

>>6311580
>"Using my ID to get following material : [Eye-Blood-Sun]

>>6311953
Sun is a 95+ required roll. So good luck

>>6311787
>>6311958
Anon accountant here, how do these look also could we spend some phoenix feathers for rerolls?

>>6311965
>Thunder Boar head for the shield
Absolutely no reasons not to.
You have a typo :
For the final, Shield, Steel, Grotwh, Storm, Boar. Body
>Next step, slap on Spiritual using the plant tag and finally yolo for Giant material.
Spiritual Plant is not Spiritual
>Spend Phoenix Feathers for reroll
No. But anons voting the same material and rolling it multiple time? Absolutely.

>>6311867
>I'm guessing that we want Phoenix and Growth
Bad thing : you can't add Growth to anything at your age.
Good thing : you found the only way to do this early enough and adding Phoenix will in fact add Rising Phoenix which already contains Growth

>>6311787
The twinned weapons get the same words, there's no reason to pull double duty and give them seperate keywords.

>>6311787
So I Say this.

For our shit, Phoenix is a hard priority.
So we need someone to get a wood feather to bind in a rising Pheonix feather, then we use my material to keep "mental".

Because our rising banner already has the body and spiritual keyword.
That gives us Storm, Wood, Eye, Bow, Phoenix, Mental.
Bit of a waste of material but I can live with it.

for the works of Wei ball's weapons, I say we follow your idea for the shield, but we don't Yolo a thunder body root, and instead use the world walking branch to give him astral self on it.

Making it
[Both items], steel, growth, storm, boar, astral self.

AND with these two plans, we only need some third anon to find a wood-feather of some degree

>>6311953
saaaaaaaaayy buddy, Would you be opposed to getting the wood feather instead of the Sun-blood-eye, because we have a trash affinity for sun?

>>6311968
My bad on the typo.
and for spiritual plant, I meant we bridge off of spiritual plant and try to nab spiritual as it's a root word.

>>6311983
Wood feather should be free.
>If all keywords are mundane, it's free GETS
Hawk, Feather, Wood. are all mundane.

And if we put at least two big tags, such as body and spiritual on wei balls set. It should make them artifact tier.

We have to think of it as 12 keywords in reality. In fact, he could put all three big tags(body, mental, spiritual) between the two.

The banner had, in fact, two such tags, mental and spiritual, making it artifact tier.

>>6311985
it's free, but every anon gets ONE material.

and no, the banner has Body and Spiritual, we are missing mental, which is why I wish to put it on our bow.
Which, sidebar; I'm gonna push to name Quiet Bow, just to fuck with the people [qm] who think that Quiet Banner was a bad name,

And while that ambition is laudable, I have another thing here.
How many anons do you think we have, that we can get materials? I think it's better to give him a great matched pair than to aim for psudo-artifact and come up short

>>6311986
>We got about 4 rolls with my plan with 3 mainly being +40 rolls

I say we roll for we mental as you suggested great to put the fear of death in that bow.

Then roll for shield. And finally for Wei balls axe. As that'll only take one roll shield how does that sound?

>>6311986
>Just to fuck with the people [qm] who think that Quiet Banner was a bad name
It's not my fault the name that's starting to stick and spread with your teammates is infinitely better.

>>6311990
The name is pretty shit ngl

>>6311989
Oh, you don't have to roll for the mental.
I already have that. It was my having mental/body/astral self that got a dice lock put on it.

so that's 1 less roll

>>6311990
EVERYONE ELSES NAMES ARE LONG AND UNWEILDY

>>6311989
So the items needed for your plan.

Wood feather for the bow. Haven't got, no roll.
Mental astral body item, got.

For axe
Thunder boar [no roll]
Thunder, Body, plant [needs roll]

Thunder, Spiritual, Plant [needs roll]
Plant, Mental, free space. [Needs roll]

It's a good thing we can treat the base material as one material since we are producing twinned artifacts.
And all the rolls need to be +40.

Soooo. My recommendation is that YOU take the wood-feather so we have locked in and confirmed we can make our bow.

We then need that other anon to change his mind about sun item and at least 3 more, and all of them get +40.
At the very least, if we get them on sequence, we are still making gains.

Can I ask why you want Giant as a keyword though?

>>6312022
Right, sought out the aid of others.
We'll see if this helps.

>>6311953

Some asshole cultivator grabbed me and has conscripted me into gathering materials. Can I go back to my farm after?

>I use my ID to get Wood-Feather-Eye material

>Using my ID to get the following material : [Feather-Spiritual Plant-Wood].

Maybe it came from one of those beast plants? (the one with feather, eye and wood can't bind to the Branch because it doesnt match any of the Branch's keywords. It double-ties to the stormwood instead)

>>6312168
friend, we already have a feather to bind our bow
we don't need a second

Rolled 41 (1d100)

>>6311958
Challenge accepted

>>6312180
. . . . . see that? That is a wasted roll.

>>6312173
This feather can bind to both a Phoenix feather and the Branch of the world tree. What's your proposed 6th tag after Storm, Wood, Eye, Bow, and Phoenix (added using one of our reserve Phoenix Feathers)? This feather allows tying in the Branch for Astral or Space (since we are getting Growth from Phonix), but if there's a better option then I'm open to something else.

>>6312184
Bind wood-feather-eye >>6312113 to the bow, then branch off eye for Body-astral self- mental, keep Mental. >>6311648


so we get Bow, Storm, Wood, Eye, Pheonix, Mental

>>6312022
Was working. And yah I'll take free keyword item for word. Anyways why giant? Because big fuck off axe is cool.

>>6312188
he is tiny though.

but with you there that means thunderboar is done.

if >>6312184 gets a 41 or higher for thunder-spiritual-plant then we will be 1 away from constructing the super twinned items.
if they are convinced to try anyway

Thunder, Spiritual, Plant roll

>>6312192
>>6312198
Well 2 of the three rolls I figured would be good landed. Honestly anything could fill a sixth keyword for the axe imo but giant would be funny.

>>6312198
So you are no longer getting the Thunder Boar.

which means we need 1 more roll of 40+ for Plant, Mental, whateverisnotaspecialword and a blissfully not roll dependent thunder-Boar item.

>>6312198

>>6312200

WORKS

Axe: Bind thunder to Elemental stormwood improve-Bind storm to thunder, keep storm. Bind spiritual-plant-thunder to storm keep Spiritual, Bridge plant mental thunder and keep mental.

Steel, Growth, Storm, Axe, Spiritual, Mental
WORKS

we've done it! And we don't have to use world wandering tree branch!
Wei Ball has all 3 aspects of his cultivation covered, plus the storm mythic word, plus boar and steel, his favoured affinities, plus growth on both.

He's literally got the perfect gifts. And this little shit is gonna shittalk us when we take him to get it made.

Fuck it, I don't even care, I'm so happy that we could absolutely do this.

Maybe spiritual plant or maybe some other item we find later.

Hey so, How many weapons tied to our astral self do you think we can have?

>>6312271
>yes.
Well we could flip it and take space.

>>6312275
I'm not saying it's a bad idea

We have the banner only so far, an actual weapon would be pleasing so we are never unarmed.

>>6312280
Funny enough we could make a polearm-type weapon every year that's like this. and make a killing formation out of it.

>>6312288
I think I'd like a better spear. And maybe a few more spear styles.

>>6312295
I mean, sure we could make a spear. But we got our snake for that.

>>6312302
. . . . . Hmm.

So I'm gonna say something crazy.
but bound spirits are bound to our soul, which is expressed via astral self.
and we can bind our weapons to our astral self.
And Dhundan figured out that AXY and AYZ could fuse to make AXYZ.

You know. Think about it.

>>6312308
Makes sense for wolf spirit as it could in theory bind without restriction.

>>6312249
>>6312249
The branch cannot act as the "Baseline" Material.
Remember, it was each time some treasure hard to come by.

>>6312441
I would counter as who has a world tree and when did they grow like grass. However fair so next time we go realm hopping we try nabbing something interesting.

>>6312447
I would retorcate that you are a "Normal Cultivator".
This is also a matter of game balance. I never expected you guys to get 10 Rising Phoenix Feathers per year; if they could act as baseline for crafting, say, swords, it implies Stable Lotus Harbor could give 10 mythical weapon to 5 years old each year
Regarding how things are going, Wei Ball generation would have gotten 25 to capitalize on that golden generation before they reach 8 and the other years a couple as consolation prizes
This would greatly raise the powerlevel of the setting and make Phoenix, Dragons and the like as common as other keywords, which I don't want.

>>6312457
Which I say is fair for the sake of balance. I agree, as we could make a new spear, etc., with our combo each year.

The feathers are really nice since we can't go and explore rn for raising money to get stuff we need. And if the fert pills work, we're making way more money going into business with Uncle SoulGaze.

I have an idea for a craft, if you'd allow it. I was thinking of saving feathers to create a robe. Makes us not spend them if we want it, and it'll require a lot of feathers. Of course, we need a core material.

>>6312459
If you gather 100 feather, I'll allow using the feathers as Core.

>>6312461
having now had time to calm, and to see, we went from uh, 80 to 130 or so over the course of 12 hours.

I hope this was fun for you.
Didn't have proper time to re-pull half a day to roll (a handpick) items into making something interresting, and you already had lots of keywords to work with, so this was a "light" edition of the accountant-chess-battle.

So here's a thing to think about.

Ryota, Inborn Emperor's Boar, who got a bag of holding from the previous emperor, who hangs around with/maintain's strong relationship with the Paper tigers and Fist of green dragon cultivators.

You think he was a reliable servant? Or perhaps seconded to the emperor's needs at some point and achieved merits?

>>6312853
Well, paper tigers are a scam anyway. I mean, you've seen one of their asset yourself.

>>6312855
he turned a third stage goose into a fine red mist.

Misleading statement, is not scam.

>>6312858
See you hyping them up after a random lucky even probably due to a Blood-Mist-Kaiju? Yeah that's exactly how they scammed their way to toptier sects

>>6312904
Being able to scam your way into the top tier sects without being caught is sincerely a talent.

And if everyone knows they are a scam and they are still a top tier sect? Utterly superior.

The Tea Party results in Ryota inviting over Mama Watermelons and the Marketer Golden Eye, Silver Tongue.
Ryota himself provide roughly half of the materials, with Mama Watermelons providing the rest of your list - and the Marketer convinced by Ryota to let you craft three items for an opportunity.
MGEST : "Is that some kind of scam? That tea thing again?
Ryota : - We're merely offer you another unique opportunity; wether you profit from it depends only from you."
The guy doesn't seem happy. Sucks to be him, you guess. You can't help but smile smugly.
Mama W : "So I paid that much... To taste a tea blended by a kid a taught the skill less than six months ago? I feel like our esteemed Marketer right here."
You keep smiling as well as the answers to yourself, while you pour the tea.

Wei Ball : "I wanted to sleep some more. Too early.
Quiet Word : - And you won't. We're going to town. I arranged for a good weapon for you.
Wei Ball : - Cool. Thanks bro.
Quiet Word : - You little ungrateful pile of... Oh. You're welcome.
Wei Ball : - Just... Here it goes. ... Don't take it wrong, but I want to be the one naming it.
Quiet Word : - Your treasure, your choice. But what's wrong with my names?
Wei Ball : - How do you call your Teapot?
Quiet Word : - The Mysterious Teapot that I obtained in Growth Realm. Because it's a Teapot. Full of tea and Mystery. That I found in another Realm which happened to be Growth.
Wei Ball : - And every sensible person call it Rising Phoenix's Wondrous Teapot of Insight Sharing.
Quiet Word : - At least, the Banner name is good.
Wei Ball : - You're right. Banner of the Rising Phoenix's Soulstriders slaps way harder that it should be legally allowed by the Will of Heavens."
In the end, Fairy Bamboo Grove caters to you. The craftsmen, warned by Seamstress Syl Viang, seems wary at first but the woodsmith and the blacksmith both agree that your demands are fairly reasonable. The items should be ready in a couple of weeks.

I'm thinking. . . Body tempering method, Deer, Poison, Time, Growth, Resistence.
"Defiant plague herald" which is kinda like poisoner's self trial, But instead of ingesting poison to neutralise it the style is based around gathering it in specific places, speeding up its effects and either deadening those areas or making them explode outwards as a defensive measure.

Full disclosure, this is based off the forest spirit from Princess mononoke. Better ideas welcome.
My only other idea is a Spear skill with Deer and time.
Or Deer and Wolf, with the interplay between a pack trying to take down a defending Deer, grouping methods by attack [wolf] and defencive methods [deer]. Possibly decent in teamwork for attack?

The mask slipped for instants, but it aaaaaaaaall makes sense now! That's why the emperor's boar is posted to one of the towns out of the way rather than in the capital, to guard the royal families backup heir. . or one of many, Hmmmmmmmm?!

Rolled 23 (1d100)

>>6312996
>Xie Lian

Should just be Riyao Ceshi after this.

>>6313465
I rolled for >>6313068
>>6313064

because I didn't realise someone already did Shun Kai.
So yours was the last of the 10 rolls needed.
only 3 got over 40, which I think is the low dc.

>>6313471
Ah yes. Indeed. At least no 44's.

So I had a thought.

If we stick blood in our understanding of Pheonix.
Does that mean we need blood to practice Pheonix skills?

Our Ichor is on par and synergies with Pheonix, but if that rider enters the condition then it's not worth doing.
If it DOESNT then we have just utterly sidestepped a requirement for some really useful skills.

>>6313492
I won't allow sticking blood in Phoenix.
For Quiet Word, Phoenix's blood is Ichor, an already Phoenix-adjacent own mythical keyword.

>>6313572
worthwhile knowledge anyway.

>>6312996
For names
>Phoenix Storm Piercer
For axe and shield?

>Storm Breaker
>Storm Bastion

So I'm struggling finding some time to work on the update.
Not dropping, doing my best... But Pokemon is coming out next week, which will slow my already challenged rhythm

so who's got a favorite name?

I'd go for

>Storm Breaker/ "Fuck Around"
>Storm Bastion/ "Find Out"

Not sure yet for the bow

>>6316192
very wei ball coded.

we've got
Pheonix storm piercer,
Intense glare of storming Pheonix

I'm running without much idea for a better array that still fits

>>6314174
>>6316193

Got a few more

Galeheart

Storm Shatter

Storm Visage

Storm-Eyed Pheonixbow

>>6316261

We could just call it Heart Piercer.
Like our name.

>>6316264
Hmmm. Yes. Very wise

>>6316536
The quiet banner of quiet word.
The heart piercer of heart piercer.

>>6316264

>>6316621
The slander will be endless.
Perfect.

>>6317017
I resolve that if we ever make movement aligned boots for Wei ball, it ought be named "getting away with it"

>>6317020
or just "it"... Because he keeps getting away with "it"

>>6317023
that's another layer of pun, I whole heartedly accept

Alright let's Brainstorm Growth Gets

>Wei Ball : minor Material
>Ji Lu : minor Material
>Nettle : Plague Herald
>Snowflake :
I'm willing to give him a Bear, Ice, Growth, Cristal well-attuned spirit (as he's gotten the shorter end of the stick so far)
>Nu Shou : Truefire Lion's Regal Pounce
[Truefire, Lion, Growth, Movement, Grapple]
Sounds right to all of you guys?

>>6317102
Sounds good for materials hmm. Roll it?

>>6317102
these sound positively pleasing

Alright. Will try to update Tomorrow; no promise.

>>6317102
Plague herald is a little ominous. Sounds like an artifact. Or a companion.

Working on the update. Can I get 2d100 for learn2fly lesson?

Rolled 78, 77 = 155 (2d100)

>>6318354

On one hand, that's dice hog.
On the other, well... That's definitely doing things.

>>6318362
We're fine with that.

Speaking as spokesperson for everyone on earth.

>>6318360
>>6318379
Aye the rolls don't suck.

the dice have been cast, in accordance with the stated instructions.

>>6318362
>dice hog
OK
WHEN I SEE 2D100 I ROLL 2D100
I'm sure it's come up before but that's the convention in every other quest I follow, if they want 1d100 from 2 anons they write out 2 rolls of 1d100.

>>6318539
dicehogging is like going for a risky move. It's only a crime if it fails.

but yeah as >>6318480
I think Dragonfag is a little ESL, or third world american. So conventional spelling and layout is a bit hit and miss. But hey, that's style

With the Growth trip done (with 2 over the 3 + charcoal minor item required to go back), you move on to your next thing to do : mass fusion of spirits.
Taste even better when free thanks to Ryota's funding the materials
The available candidates are Wei Ball and Tau Ryel - with spirits you helped them to get to start with - Ryota who want to add Storm to his Flying Wheel Flame Boar, and finally Boyd.
It's an opportunity to you : seeing first hand Boyd's "Pressure Dear", attuned to Mind and Gravity that you fuse to the one that shift hands a couple time, the Deer of Mind and Shadow-Rainbow.
QW : "And here you go... What is that "Rainbow" power anyway?
Boyd : - Oh, the power of money.
QW : - Wait, this exist? I should definitively find some! Money is Power after all!
Boyd : - Nah, you got it wrong. Rainbow is also known as "Pay To Win". It's the power to burn valuable things to power strikes. A tool as strong as expensive."
What do you think of "Pay to Win" power?
>It's too dangerous and a sure way to get you broke
>It's amazing and the best thing a Wheeler Dealer could even ask for!
>No hard sentiment one way or the other.

Then, you move on to flight lessons.
Boyd : "Alright. I learned this at Skyslandia on an exchange-student thing after they won at the Gathering... They teach us by throwing from cliffs of the flying islands, until we figure it out.
So we'll do just that."
>Boyd use Seismic Toss!
You're grabbed by the shoulder as your elder brother darts up. Once high enough, he smiles and let you go.
This is awfully reminding of your carriage fall - although this time, you're not helpless. You unfurl your wings, a bit above ground, slowing the fall down.
"Great! Clap those a bit now!"

Current "flight" abilities :
>Duration : 5 seconds
>Gentle Fall : lets you slowly touch ground from a low height.

Due to your good rolls, chose two. You can pick some skill twice :
>Add +20 seconds to your wing-time (picking it twice grants you 1 minute of Wingtime privilege)
>Steering flight : You can move (at the same height level) during flight (picking it twice grant you extra manoeuvrability)
>Hover flight : You can just stay in place while your wings are unfurled (picking it twice grant you the ability to gain height)
>Fallbreak : No matter how fast you're about to touch ground, your wings can prevent you to take damages.

That was a busy, busy month. You grinded the To-Do list down; with only two debts to Bathias : one tea serving, and one realm-walk.

It's been 4 years and 4 months since you've joined the Eastern Branch of Tamers of Hundred Beasts. And it's time to get back at things seriously.

>Pay to win is too expensive.

>Fall break, Duration.

Fall break is negating Fall damage while we have our wings. Best thing for us. At the moment.

>Poem of rising Pheonix
>Pheonix dance

>Meteor swarm
>Wind riding archer style

So my plan for this turn is to bring our combat styles to our current level, and try to trigger a crit on poem.

>>6318688
> Pay to win sounds like a trump card; however, it's a rich cultivator's game. Might make one using phoenix feathers later. (if we don't just make arrows out of it.)

>Fall break, Duration.

>Poem of rising Pheonix
>Pheonix dance

>Meteor swarm
>Wind riding archer style

With most debts paid for and admin doneish. We got a few tasks I suggest we keep in mind of.

Main task
We got 10 or so months to solve the Astral Bead problem. (Get Tau Ryel to get on this so no doubt power level her to 2nd realm cultivator)

Side tasks
- Get the gang to learn the basic formation for capturing beasts.
- Train up the youngsters.
- Finish Beast Fusions for self.
- Be able to fly with wings.
- Work on art breakthroughs noticeably magus for finishing our keystone engine. (keystone engine means the glue that'll tie everything we know together.)
- Bag / Ring of holding using a world tree branch. Gotta find a precious material to use as the main ingredient.
- Find the other secret and most fitting keyword for our pheniox spiritual art.
-More plants for the world tree to acquire. Maybe recruiting the two girls for yield and mutations.
- Something I forgot but QM mentioned learning more about the sect to be able to world hop easier. Such as learning formations to hop to other worlds. And we should take the time to learn what's to offer here.
- Acquire a book on formations to make our own later.

Oh, right. QM, for crafting, let's define it a bit. I suggest we give items a tag of core, side, and utility. Core being the wood we acquired, feathers as a side material, and ultity being the tea we're harvesting.

>>6318718
About beast fusions, We have snake and wolf to do.

I don't think we updated our horse yet, so that's our next big issue. Economics of binding is our other one.

I think we used all our stormwood making the weapons, Because I forgot that we needed that for binding. So we need some more of that. . . we also need uhh, I think something to do with pain and metal for the wolf.

Gold space, storm spear for our snake to bind. He's growing slower than the others but still acceptably.

>>6318722
Golden skystone from the sect treasury, something storm related, a common spear is enough to bind the snake.

Steel, pain are both common words, so painful steel and stormwood should be enough to bind the wolf.

>>6318718
>Oh, right. QM, for crafting, let's define it a bit. I suggest we give items a tag of core, side, and utility. Core being the wood we acquired, feathers as a side material, and ultity being the tea we're harvesting.
Well, tea have the [Food: tea] tag. And with teamaking rules, you can definitely spice it up with one strange material, such as a feather. And for side material, nothing prevent you to use Tea on a craft, like "infusing" the item in the tea.

Now, you will realize you can assemble Tea for crafting bullshit and exploit the mechanic in 3...2...1...

>>6318722
Snake have been done :
My QW sheet is
> Golden Storm Cosmic Spear Snake (Gold, Space, Spear, Storm, Snake)

However, it might not be impossible between busyness and a nasty crash of the text editor with unsaved data, this fusion slipped away from the updates of this busy month

>>6318738
oh.

Uh

Just. . The wolf left I guess. Sweet

>>6318738
A word of advice I suggest writing on Google docs as it auto saves.

>>6318753
Well, I hate google emprise on my daily life. I use a local text editor which usually autosaves too - but crashed my Kernel

>>6318737
>Rules of Tea-Making :
They are roughly the same as rules of Craft. You start with Tea leaves as a basis, then can bind any NOT TEA craft material with the [FOOD] Keyword.
You can then add ONE non-food element sharing a keyword with your basis.
The effect of tea is akin to pills with 2 keywords, then get stronger as you keep assembling relevant keywords

Just gonna drop this here.

>>6318818
Oh yeah, and we have this shit too.

Gained:
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Snake
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Wolf

>To Graft to the World-Tree :
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Puzzle
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Poison
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Snake
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Wolf
With a reminder that Puzzle is a mythic word which helps breaking formations.

So every year we have the ability to get stuff made with poison, snake and wolf.

>>6318820
What you exactly have on said world tree :

Grafts :
Delectable Magus-Yuzu tree (Food, Spiritual Plant, Spiritual Strength)
A small tree. Currently holding 2 growing Yuzus. (Harvest at the 9th month)
Winter-Ice Dolphin Spiritual Plant [12th Month]
Spring-Earth Crab Spiritual Plant [3rd Month]
Summer-Fire Lobster Spiritual Plant [6th Month]
Autumn-Wind Whale Spiritual Plant [9th Month]
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Puzzle [1st Month]
Spiritual Plant, Food [Tea], Poison [1st Month]
Spiritual Plant, Snake, Poison

>>6318821
So on a yearly harvest, we have some nice spiritual strength, 3 of the elements, some interesting animals.

We can support a few people in the sect with items. Just a course of how much value we get out of it.

so
no update today. I'll try to get you some post soon-ish but currently playing the new Pokémon game

Heard the new game is garbage, and the new Digimon game is better.

Hey OP, take this

>>6320561
Well, I'm having tons of fun.

What sucked in the game :
- Felt very handhold at the beginning and corridored. Was afraid the game would be extremely frustrating because of that (big map with like 3 square meter unlocked at each story beat?) It wasn't the case
- The infamous windows + balconies "painted" on the buildings.
- It's quite minor, but they don't put an audio cue when character are speaking in cutscenes (like undertale or any other game really) which pisses me off. Pokemon still cry though.

On the plus :
1/ The map is actually great. Right size, with "just" the right amount of movement capacities for the character to make exploration feels, well, "exploring" : not too frustrating to go places and not too much mobility to trivialize it
2/ The game is quite pretty on Switch2 - barring the infamous painted balconies
3/ Lagless and bugless for me.
4/ Excellent ambiance : you're in a city filled to the brim with trainer and wild pokemons. The city is chilled by day, hotheads can fight their hearts out on night in a random battlezone. That makes lots of sense.

The plus :

Practicing your flight with Boyd netted you two benefits : First, Fallbreak. You won't get hurt crashing down of flying cart anymore - Boyd is lifting you, then dropping you more and more, and you delay summoning your wings until the last moment.
Once this is said and done, you practice jumping with your Unlimited Rising Star Kick , deploy the wings, and improve your lateral mobility while your height slowly decrease.
You feel like you're a boat with how much inertia you have and how gentle your direction changes are, but this is still mobility, while slowly gliding down : your wings lack a little strength to properly get you to stay at the same height level, as you can't Hoverin place yet.
Practically, with how short your flight time is, it doesnt matter much though.
You also realized Unlimited Rising Star Kick grew in power : while practicing flight, by your own, it was your primary way to gain height. You can now raise up to 6 meters with a single kick.

Then, there is your day to day Cultivation.
Working on your foundation netted you growing your stockpile by a twelth of your dantian capacities. Poem of Rising Phoenix reached its Apex, as well as your Rising Phoenix Wide Ballet.
There isn't much to say either regarding your weapon practice you made progresses in both, without breakthrough. Meteor swarm is a hair-short of reaching Apex, however your bow style could use a tad more practice as you grew quite since you last worked it properly.

You finished off your Qi and Blood Pills of [Growth][Phoenix] - although you feel you got a lot of mileage out of the last of them.

There's still something worth to tell : the sect is quite busy, with visits of Marketer Golden Eye, Silver Tongue and Sovereign All Learner's Teacher to draw formation : Boyd will break through second stage into the third.
All of the Second-stage disciples of the sect are gathered to observe - while staying at quite a distance, for not getting drawn in the Tribulation yourselves.
Boyd sits in the center of a wide formation, featuring several expensive materials you don't quite recognize : incenses, treasures. A couple scrolls. Dark clouds gather above him, and an ominous rumble shake your very bone and core.
The ambience is tensed : after all, it is known not all cultivators survive the Tribulations.
>Rolled 75, 72 : success by 50, 43
Ryota : "Boyd is quite favored by luck : the amount of lightning strikes in his tribulation are sparse.
Marketer : - Looks like the four-rod Stormwood array is efficient at holding the strikes back... Is it decreasing the power of the trial?
Sovereign Teacher : - Not quite. Still, it delays the burst over time, which is easier to withhold... I can see a little weakness in the formation though. I'll edit the town's template."
Boyd will get in seclusion to stabilize is third realm

So we have bound everything together, apart from wolf on the second stage.

okay. Okay.

I'm gonna ask for just a dump from your notes on where we are at right now in terms of our Spirits and proficiencies, cause off the top of my head.
We have completed 3 side objectives, got just our horse left for needing binding, the immortal cave is looking good.

We need; To find a compatible horse spirit. Boost a few techniques up into a useful state, We have a melee option, the bow option may be an idea.
To win the contest and get a skill. . . since we keep getting more valuable winnings through increasing our level maybe we can get the skill plus something else.

>>6322713
Wolf have been bounded.

Bonded spirit beast :
Shrewd Stormwooddagger-feathered Rising Phoenix (Growth, Shrewd, Phoenix, Dagger, Storm, Wood)
Supreme Shieldmaster Silver Horse (Silver, Martial prowess, Shield, Horse)
Revealed trump effect : +10 to fight
Golden Storm Cosmic Spear Snake (Gold, Space, Spear, Storm, Snake)
Scion of the Primordial Wolf
Absorbed affinities : Steel, Pain, Storm, Wood

>>6322686
>+1 Since we got our bow now, we gotta test it out.

After the tournament, I figure we should learn formations/ teach the basic capturing method.
And get Tau Ryel boosted so she can astral hop.

>>6322724
Martial prowess is gonna be a bitch and a half to find again. we also want storm.

Issue. We don't have any storm techniques. that means we have no way to get at storm realm.
