Chrysalis

Ho God! What the heck is this overwhelming itchiness!? From what depths of skin irritant hell did Gandalf find this sensation? My body is fire! My mind is breaking! Why am I the only one who seems to be bothered by this? When Tiny spends Biomass he barely twitches and Crinis doesn’t have a face so I can’t tell what her reaction is but they don’t seem to suffer like this!

Why Meeeeee!?

Eventually the torture ends and I slowly pick myself up from the ground.

I hate it. I hate it soo much.

Now what’s next?

First I try to inspect my own carapace to see what has changed and unsurprisingly the shimmering diamond patches of my carapace have extended even further. Hang on a sec...

I peer closer to try and get a better view and what I see shocks me.

It isn’t that the patches of Diamond have expanded, but rather they’ve been pushed outward by a core of pure diamond. In the centre of each diamond covering the carapace itself, my own exoskeleton, has been transformed into actual Diamond.

I’m getting more and more expensive...

So is this what will happen if I keep choosing to upgrade this path? I won’t just get a diamond layer atop my carapace but my carapace will actually change into diamond?

I’m not sure how to feel about that.

Will my inner carapace plating still be able to heal my carapace if it’s made of diamond? I suppose it will, it all seems to mesh together even when you don’t think it should, Gandalf seems to have those things worked out well enough.

Next I flex my mandibles, trying to sense if there is a difference. They certainly feel stronger and more solid. Curiously, I channel my mana into them and am pleased to note how smooth the flow of mana feels. The mandibles themselves immediately glow with the energy of mana. Ooooo this feels strong.

Eagerly, I check my status to see what has changed.

My Savage Infused Mandibles +10 has now become Empowered Mandibles +15 and my

Hardened Diamond Carapace +10 has become True Diamond Carapace +15.

still the same options I had before, as well as some new ones. The condensed Gravity magic gland sounds interesting. This is the one Tiny ended up choosing, which condenses the mana held within the gland slightly. If this upgrade

a lot of new effects that make spell casting with the mana easier but I feel

do is think forward to the +15 upgrade. Is there a possible fusion that I think would be powerful or should I double down on increasing the capacity of the gland, then

I like the idea of having more gravitational mana to play with. After talking with Beyn I now understand that the true power of gravity magic won’t reveal itself until I’m able to unlock the gravity mana affinity skill and start levelling it up. At that point I’ll be given the knowledge of the spell shapes that are unique to Gravity mana and

the Expanded Deep Gravity Mana
