[color=0072bc][h3]Ardur The Mighty Hipixie[/h3][/color] [color=92278f] Let there be light >> a time to rest /// Adventuring day 5 // Night / Location - outside the cave [/color] Ardur continued to throw stones but not at anything in particular just enough to keep the beasties back. The way had been cleared and the light and heat from the burning pile of squirming bodies seemed to be keeping the rest of the enemy’s at bay. Asura continued to carry Trent out of the cave and the bigger knight was there to greet them with a worried look. “[color=92278f]I’m alright I just need to recuperate my mana.[/color]” Looking down at Steve he smiled and scratched her carapace. [color=92278f]“You did amazing Steve.”[/color] He spoke with a smile as he picked her up. [color=92278f]“ooo and an evolution huh? Hmm.”[/color] Setting the spider back down the pixie looked over to the knight while he was casting healing spells on the others. Trying to see if there was a difference between what the knight did for healing and what he did for healing. On top of that he was very curious as to what spell he used on Asura and watched him very closely, [i]“Stamina or antidote?”[/i] he wondered as his attention was brought back to his spider. [color=92278f]“[u]Let’s see where to put your skills, hmmm 4 points into web spit. 6 points into thread control, 3 points into blunt resistance and the rest into pierce resistance.[/u]”[/color] Ardur paused while still smiling down at his friend. [color=92278f]“[u]Out of the choices and our current situation I believe it would be best if you stayed an Oculus spider. So I choose Adult Oculus Spider, when you come out of it I’ll have your soup and what’s left of the bow horn for you[/u].”[/color] With a smile he patted his friend on the head again and sat down to eat his food. After he was done eating Ardur Stood and looked to the knight after he was done talking about watch shifts. [color=92278f]“That’s understandable, if you need me I’ll be over here meditating.”[/color] Setting the bowl down Ardur glanced at the cocoon that Steve was in and smiled. The pixie made his way to the edge of the light and sat down he began to meditate while he was thinking of where to allocate points. He was talking in his head as he allocated the points, [u][i]“9 points into minor regeneration I, 3 points into Reinforce, and 1 point into Guidance I. with this I should have three points left for what I want if it’s even possible.”[/i][/u] He thought while continuing to meditate. There were two things he wanted to do before he slept. The first thing he began to do when he felt his mana was sufficient enough to do so. He used Guidance II and spoke quietly as he looked up at the stars. [color=92278f]“[i]Spirits of the sun I Ardur call out to you. To Dhulfiqar the King, I call out to you. To Galatine the Protector, I call out to you. To Claidheamh the Mother, I call out to you. I do not call to the three holy spirits because I believe I can acquire more power from you, I call to you because you all represent the sun and what it means to your people, what you mean to the children of the sun. I worship the sun therefore I worship all of you. I only ask that you tell me what I can do for you and I will accept it.[/i]”[/color] He paused for a moment and envisioned the remaining three skill points he had being given to them. [color=92278f]“[i]I gift you each one of my skill points, so that you may give it to a follower in need or do with it as you please. Even if you or your followers don’t get along we all still worship the sun and each one of your strengths compliments each other’s. So much so that together there is no weakness among you.[/i]”[/color] With that offering he returned to his meditation with a change. He didn’t focus on drawing more mana into him, this time he focused on the mana he had. Taking his time to identify within himself the different types of mana that all swirled around inside him. Focusing on his core the middle of his abdomen right at the base of the rib cage he envisioned his mana. First as a white light, glowing brightly as it churned in a circle this was the mana of the spirit. That was the mana he currently held. Again he began concentrating more this time on the mana he felt when he was casting fireball, flare, or the warmth of the sun and mixed that white light with orange. Then he remembered the mana from the water and what Undine had used to cast Depth charge, this portion of his mana was blue. Again he continued remembering what the mana that came from the earth felt like and how it felt to use stone shot and again turned it to the color green. He continued through the strange sensation he was making, and this time separated out what he felt was the mana he absorbed from the air and turned it yellow. All of these colors white, orange, blue, green, and yellow swirled around in that little ball in chaos. It began to make him nauseous and made his chest start to hurt. Slowly Ardur began to keep all of these colors in their own part of the circle making them move in equal unison around each other in a sort of weird pinwheel. Ardur was unsure what he was doing or what would come of it, he could only hope it helped with mana control and possibly maybe even his mana reserves. Ultimately he would have to break his concentration and lay back on the grass out of breath. [@Kazemitsu] [@Zeroth]
