I don't get it, how will turning into a tarball with mutable properties help?

At risk of :thejoke: gish is a d&d term for an armored caster.

Game show host: Choose from one of these six doors and you win the prize behind it.

Goons: Aha! What's that seventh door there?

Game show host: That's the door you came in through.

Goons: Perfect! I smear my blood and feces on the door in the symbol of the Elder Sign. Surely this will claim dominion over the hidden prize.

Game show host: *sigh*

Edit: I know it's not a direct comparison. It's even possible this is a test. But let's get got before we go flipping tables looking for gotchas in our arcane dealings. Everything we've experienced so far of the mystic arts has been pretty straightforward.

Oh we obviously talked to the bad guy. Don't ask the Sejin about it, though, because the terrifying flame-spirit that directly orders you not to tell anyone about your secret chat is not someone to immediately betray.

Eh, he just said to keep the meeting secret from the Djinni or poo poo would get harder. The Sejin isn't a Djinni... probably.

Weird outcast evil things tend to be light on threats until you free them from some ancient prison.

Can I make shaft of the magic channeling glass for my spear?

If we can't have awesome rune stones let's at least make a spear capable of writing our name on the moon.

Gotta warm up the pipes so we can learn to control magic glass like the wizards of yore.

Ooo, that could be cool, too. I was envisioning calling up blades and spires of glass using power ballads.

Come on goons, let's make ourselves a sand witch.

A sounds like a game made from something in the real world. Guardian zombies or something. I don't know, but it calls to me.

And yes, obviously critters later.

D because J breaks our promise to hide our magic. We can wreath it in fire once we've skewered the boar with it and the children have run away.

1A. Avoiding having our mind blasted by incomprehensible horror seems like a good tactic at the moment.

2D. A regular ferret is a good pet, rather than the giant wingferret we saw.

3H. Given the life we've chosen to lead we're going to need to start racking up the hardened notches on our Violence meter, best to start exposure under controlled conditions with the Seijin around so a potential freakout won't get us killed.

This. The spirit, while tempting, slows our training appreciably at a time when every scrap of mana could be the difference between casting a spell and dying.

I feel like its a "child watching horrible things in a first person perspective" rather than a magical warping deal. Considering he recognized it easily, I suspect we'll be viewing the Fragments later.
