There was definitely something happening - as the first drop of venom fell through the nebulous magical mass, it dissipated. The second hit, and it began to sizzle and steam. The third hit and there was a visible change. The colors of the 'atoms' began changing. The mana itself was changing, she could feel it, but before she could see its transformation in its entirety, she had to blink, missing what was likely the most crucial step in the whole thing.

And then her MP ran out.

Hissing in mild annoyance, Ash hit the rocky ground with her claw, much like a frustrated human slamming a fist onto a desk. At least her Venom Shot leveled up a bit from this. Always useful for that, but what did this information mean? It was certainly changing, thanks to introducing another composition to the spell. She already assumed it was plausible to influence a magical substance with a non-magical one, but perhaps one could also alter non-magical substances with magical substances...alchemy, as one might say. Changing one metal into another via a magical means.

Hm, well, she'd think about it.

For now, Ash meditated, focusing on refilling her MP to max. Once done, She decided to work on another small project she had been wanting too. Vomiting up the Mana Crystal, Ash used Lesser Force to lift it, carrying it along with the Tree Branch she had gathered earlier. Placing them on the ground, Ash looked over the pile of things they had gathered before...hm, yes, those bones would do nicely, for now. She could make something more durable with a rock later once she had a better grasp of what she was doing. The Intestines or Tongue would be good as well for this.

Taking a large leg bone from the pile of Rubber Frog Bones, Ash began using her claws to carve its sides until it reached a fine point, chipping away at it until it was long and sharp enough to be used as a weapon. Next, she grabbed the branch, whittling out a hole in the middle of it, hopefully enough to give the newly made bone blade a tough fit. Lifting it with Lesser Force, she brought the now rounded edge of the bone blade to the newly made hole before she gently wedged it into place, using her claws for a bit more force if needed. Once that was secured, she grabbed the Frog intestines. Low quality, but it would suffice. Quickly flying her way to the stream, with both it and the new spear in her possession, she quickly washed it out, making sure it was thoroughly clean before tying it tightly around the blade, making sure the edges were covered and more secured against possible damage and falling out.

Quickly flying back to the cave, Ash began the second part. She wasn't sure if this would work, but she had read fantasy novels on occasion for leisure, and she did know vaguely that wizards and mage types often used staves to power their magic so using this Mana Crystal for such an endeavor would be fairly useful if she could use it for such a thing.

Briefly considering her options, Ash settled on using her claws to cut a large 'Y' shaped cut into the opposite end until it was deep enough to let her pull the branches apart, though still come back together enough to be snug. Breathing slowly, she lifted the Mana crystal with Lesser Force, carefully lowering it into the space created when she pulled the wood back. Of course, doing so many things would likely cause the base wood of the new spear to be weaker, but she could likely reinforce it with a little creativity later once the base thing was done.

Once it was lodged in the space provided, Ash grabbed the Frog Tongue. She didn't have anything to preserve it with, so using it to help secure the Mana Crystal as it was in its state would have to do for now. Any left over tongue was tossed back into the pile of materials.

Once her creation was done, Ash lifted it in front of her with Lesser Force studying it with Magic, Material, Mana Sense, and Mana Vision.
