Femus was grateful to reach the branches that had seemed so very far above them before.  They were indeed quite high up but the ascent hadn't been quite as stressful as he had thought.  The branches were warm and the area was thick with nature mana.  He would have to put his combat skill development on hold for the time being.  This would be an excellent place to practice healing magic.  In fact, he might be able to make progress on some kind of area spell in a space with this much mana available.

Looking back in the direction that they had come from, Femus spotted the group of pixies that had taken over his hollow in the Old Kao tree.  Specifically, he spotted a familiar one.  Well, that meant that they might have an ally if things came down to it... just... an expensive one.  But, they lacked what they needed to really 'tame' that pixie for now.  Now, sitting on the thick foliage that covered this forked branch and provided them with good visual cover from anything on the ground, Femus felt free to get this evolution thing out of the way.  He would take stock and decide on other things afterward.

"Alright.  We finally have a safer place to get this done."  He said softly with a sigh of relief before speaking seriously.  "I learned something about evolution that you should know before you make your own first choice.  If you evolve from an immature form to another immature form, you gain less benefits and you can limit your peak potential.  The system helpfully answered my request for a definition of 'increase potential'.  I'm going to meditate before I start.  Please take care of anything you need to before I begin evolving.  I'll... be counting on you."

With that said, Femus began meditating.  His goal was to meditate until he felt that he couldn't hold any more mana in his body.  He concentrated on how it felt and flowed through him, seeking to increase his capacity and the speed of its circulation through his body as he had before.  Only when he felt completely stuffed did he allow himself to mentally review the evolution options one more time.

Then he focused his will and decided on 'Adult Wisp'.  It was time to experience what this whole evolution thing was.
