Oberon roused slowly, coming back to consciousness gradually before standing up and stretching his aching body; even though the bed of leaves and straw was easily the most comfortable sleeping arrangement he’d had since being reborn spending the night on the hard-packed dirt was a far cry from his comfortable existence back home and it showed. Although, working himself to exhaustion last night probably played a part in his current discomfort as well, even if the results showed that it was more than worth it in the long run.

He was actually surprised by how much progress they had made last night; in some ways he had not been able to achieve everything he had wanted to but in others he had achieved much, much more. He now had every analysis skill he could think of, apparently every analysis skill he could get based on the fusion skill had also gotten. Several of his existing skills had also levelled up as he taught them to the others or used them naturally while learning other skills; the fact that his meditation could now be used on the move, along with his new Gather Light skill, to restore his mana on the move was a huge benefit. The real boon from last night however, were the two new levels he had acquired and the huge number of skill points that came with them.

Even so there was a still a lot he wanted to do today as well. A few things he had not accomplished last night, a few things that he had wanted to try for a while but were not possible until now, and a few ideas he hadn’t had until last night.

He started by assigning his skill points into various skills. [color=f49ac2]“4 points into Keen Sight.”[/color] That would be useful now that he was out of the cave; he could see further the next time he went to the treetops t scout the area and since his Alert skill was based on his senses it would also become more useful. [color=f49ac2]“5 points into Minor Heal All.”[/color] A spell that could affect multiple targets was something that could act as a basis for a number of other spells; once he had an understanding of how it was done he could work on applying the same principle to his Shield spell, as well as any buffs or de-buffs he learned in the future. [color=f49ac2]“And 6 points into Spiritual Awareness.”[/color] He wasn’t sure what this skill would do exactly, but he was curious enough to spend the points to acquire it. Part of him hoped it would help him with something he had been thinking about trying for a while.

Following the others to the creek, Oberon heard the rustling and turned to see the Goblin at the top of the hill. With his newly enhanced sight he probably saw the Goblin more clearly than any of them, but it didn’t help him to recognise the creature. He didn’t think it was one of the Goblin’s that had been with Crispy before, but then he hadn’t paid enough attention to the group to really know. Besides, being this far away from the cave it was more likely to be a different Goblin than one they knew, unless Crispy or Orchid had tried to follow them. [color=f49ac2]“There’s probably another cave around here. We should expect a visit from them sometime soon now that they know we’re here.”[/color] It never occurred to him to try and stop the Goblin from making it back to his tribe.

Once the Goblin had disappeared from view the Sprite turned away from the hill back to the creek and drank the cool water until his thirst was quenched. The first thing they should do this morning was find some more food to fill their already dwindling supplies; six creatures went through quite a lot of food as it turned out and it wouldn’t hurt to build up a stockpile. Maybe they could extend their search up into the foothills as well and see if there were any other kinds of plants or creatures they hadn’t found yet in the slightly different environment.

Turning back to the others, Oberon looked over the five other creatures that he had allied himself with and decided to try something that would in all honesty probably fail. [color=f49ac2]“Form Party: Oberon, Mourningstar, Digbie, Torrent, Ash and Reoth.”[/color]
