November 23, 1371


The next day, Occa wishes:

"I wish Darian was stronger."

Darian gains 0.1 points of strength.

Darian flexes his arms. "Thanks, Occa! Do you think that'll do it?"

Niko looks at Darian critically with a grin "Ya still look a bit scrawny ta me!"

"No. Maybe another 9 wishes or so."

Darian looks at Occa. "Another 9? Oh, Occa, you can't do that!"

"Oops! Darian, since we'll be here another day, do ya think ya can cast another Identify on this cutlass. I seemed to have forgotten to ask ya earlier about it."

"Sure, Niko."

"Occa, since we'll be here another day for you to memorize your spells again, perhaps this would be a good time to make some holy water bombs. Using the Item spell, we could concentrate 12 vials of holy water into one. Then, when we use throw them, we could cause them to expand to normal volume."

"I plan to make 3 the day we leave, but you can cast it for a longer duration than I so that may be useful for others to carry with us. What do you think?"

"Good idea, Niko. What if we run out of time, though? We would have alot of holy water to carry."

"Well, worse comes to worse, we stash a large basin and a lot of flasks in Darian's magic pack. I was thinking we could do the same thing to large rocks, too."

Occa says to Darian, "That is true. Sorry."

He looks tired and retires.

Later in the day, Darian casts an identify spell on Niko's other cutlass...the one he did not know that he had. He learns that it improves the weilders chance of striking and injuring a target.


next day...
