Chapter 06: Objective

Nátt kept experimenting with potions, which was the safest thing he could magically do other than play around with non-threatening magic such as the new few [Lvl 0] spells he could use: [Gust], and [Dancing Lights] were the ones he learned. [Gust] was easy to do, all he needed to do was use [Druidcraft] and push wind faster and stronger than he always does, successfully learning how to use it, and [Dancing Lights] he just focused on his magic and made it glow like a Firefly and successfully used the spell, it was a basic spell so he had knowledge inside his head from his reincarnation. Such basic knowledge he learned was how to find himself in a forest by using the trees and soil, identify some basic plants, and how to navigate the world using the stars as his map. He also learned how to take care of a forest better and could understand the law of the forest, not the law of the jungle, but the law of the forest which is a little different...

Weak die and strong live (Such as a wolf killing a bunny), strong protects the weak (Such as mother protecting their children), Protect the tree but if necessary, the forest (Protect one individual, but if necessary, sacrifice that individual for the greater good), and that he was the protector, the leader, and royalty of the forest. Only those that are not from the forest will try to kill him, and those against nature will want to kill him even unconsciously.

He can not follow those rules, he can dislike these rules, he can ignore these rules, he just knows them. It is his choice to follow them or not, ignoring them completely or simply following the ones he want to follow.

Meanwhile, he will focus on his first objective: Healing Potions. Nátt has been speaking with his father and as far as his father knows, the forest they live in cover 80% of the continent they are on, and there are 4 major cities he can think off but it's been hundreds of years he went around exploring everything so they certainly changed. And as far as he knows, there are magical potions around that can cure and hurt alike, but he doesn't know how to make them. So this was Náttúrumaður first objective ever, create Healing Potions!

The first thing he needs to do is decide if the potion he wants to make just accelerates the natural healing properties of the body, or provide health and regeneration through the potion, because although they are practically the same, they are completely different. In one hand, the acceleration of natural healing can consume the target's stamina and decrease their immune system, because Nátt already has seeds for a plant that can accelerate natural healing and consume stamina to do so, the downside ks the decrease in the immunologic system. On the other side, a healing potion that itself provides the healing and does not stimulates the natural healing properties of the body is safer, because what would happen if the target does not have enough stamina to accelerate their natural healing properties?

Well, they may even die and not heal at all!

And that's not what Nátt wants, so a potion that provides the healing is better to make. So he will not be using the [Magical Echinacea] plant to make a healing potion, instead, he will find another plant that can provide healing like spells do, which may take some time but he is sure he can do it. "Okay..." Nátt sat down on his makeshift bed and began to take notes on a book, his [#1] Book as he marked it as. "I need to find a herb that can heal, so this is both Potions and Medicine at the same time, i guess... Maybe i should ask dad? Not yet, i need to at least make an effort to learn and discover, and if push comes to shove i can just try to create a potion that provides stamina and fuse it with the [Magical Echinacea] extract to make a basic self-healing potion."

With his aim to the future, Náttúrumaður happily began to look through the holes on the walls, looking at some plants with his [Appraisal]:

[Fairyglow: A bonsai-like small tree that can magically generate small, soft glowing orbs of different colors that range from the green to light blue spectrum, each plant generates a total of ten of these spheres. The plant creates such small soft glowing orbs for illumination, native to the Under Dark and the Fey Forests, these plants are kept as decorations for the various races there such as Drows, Mushroomies, Royal High Elves and Moon Elves as well.

Can be used as an ingredient to a potion.]

Nátt smiled at this, this small plant has a beautiful song as well, it sings in a high tone while the orbs vibrate and even twirl with the symphony of the music. The soft song is easy to sing along to because it is just four notes hummed in different tones, and these plants love it when he sings along to their songs!

[Goodberry Bush: A small bush with light green leaves and dark green branches, this cute bush produces small, light blue berries with a small glowing light, this is the Goodberry. Goodberries are magical berries that can magically feed the target for a whole day's worth of nutrients, not making them feel full, but giving them enough nutrients for the day.

Can be used as an ingredient for potions.

Can be used as an ingredient for medicine.]

'Maybe if i use Goodberries with the Magical Echinacea, along with another magic plant, i can make a safe Self-healing potion... But not now.' Náttúrumaður focused back at his objective at hand.

-Meanwhile-

Yggdrasil huffed as he moved, he felt the weight of the years on his body, he sighed. Dragons are not immortal, they age, they just live longer... And his days are getting shorter, his time is getting closer, but he was happy. He just fears his son will be lonely after he leaves... He knows when he is gone, his corpse will be left behind, never withering, like a hollow tree in the middle of the forest... waiting for the next Forest Dragon to be born, like a vessel that is passed through generations, waiting for the next one to take over.

He only has a few more years, so he will spend those years beside his son, taking care of him forever.
