Watching the water coalesce from the air before becoming part of the orb forming between her palms was just about as amazing as Nira had imagined, and it was even more fascinating to observe the details of the process now that she had her eyes open. Apparently the pixies felt much the same from their enthusiastic and curious reactions. Though she couldn't lose too much focus lest the spell return to normal speed, she still watched as two of the pixies tried touching the droplets while the third circled in and out of view. The entire experience leading up to this moment had been a bit hectic, but Nira had to admit it really was unlike any other she had experienced before. About to get lost in the thought of what conjuring other elements must look like, light from the setting sun glanced off the orb and brought her back to awareness. She'd gotten so caught up in the situation that she hadn't realized how late it was getting. Not wanting to have wasted water or mana, Nira was about to take a drink from the water orb when a bird call more noticeable then the rest startled the other pixies, which in turn made Nira jump a little midair and drop it. Watching the reactions of the pixies and how they pointed to trees on the other far side of the clearing, Nira could only make a mental note that the area must be of some danger at night. Turning her head back a moment late, Nira could only watch as her aquaintences darted off in the opposite direction. [color=a062de]*Yup, definitely [i]something[/i] going on with that.*[/color] With such a good indicator of potential danger, Nira almost started moving before Femus could speak up about new information and his request. Right, that. Reorienting her mind yet again for probably a fifth time that day, Nira merely nodded in response as a slight bit of mental exhaustion kicked in. Reviewing her day as she looked over the hobgoblin corpse, she could only be thankful things had worked out as well as they had. From getting to the tree, to feeling flustered over a lack of clothes, to finishing mana orb and killing a slime, to qualifying for evolution and eating, to getting a leaf dress and making a new spell, to helping kill a hobgoblin and plan for a hunt, to somehow managing the pixies despite her lack of a proper plan, it had been quite a day. So to just have a moment to chill as she looked over a corpse for some easily removable small bones, morbid as it may be, was a minor blessing. Having finished her observation of the hobgoblin's corpse while ruminating, Nira decided it would likely be a choice between hand bones and feet bones, simply because the hobgoblin's teeth would still be too well anchored from it's fresh death. Remembering some offhand remarks about finger injuries from her past life, she decided those would likely be the easiest to remove. Making her way over to one of the limp hands, Nira momentarily thought about looking for a rock before remembering the damage mana orb had done at range. Surely using it point blank would be effective for damaging the connected joints, let alone removing a finger or two. Deciding on the index and middle fingers, Nira placed her hand above the two related knuckle joints before using mana orb with the intent of slicing through skin and muscle. Regardless of effectiveness, she then got to work at ripping skin and flesh off the bones until she had three of them detached. Once obtained, she decided to briefly cast aqua orb above her prizes to dry them out and minimize the smell. Moving the orb away, she used it to rinse her hands and arms off as best she could before picking up the bones she had collected and taking them up to the resting spot in the lower branches. Hopefully she hadn't spent too before she and Femus could talk about further plans.
