My head is screaming, or at least my mind is, apparently all of my flesh acts as a mind unless I make one so it’s more of an everywhere pain I know is from my mind, anyway the mana in the room is depleted and I feel drained still, and the corpse is bones, which is incredible annoying I wanted to study it!

  I mean I got a bit distracted but that’s not the issue here, the issue is that I still can’t see, i mean I can kind of due to the spirit sense but I want eyes, and I don’t wanna be a dumb rusty sword!! It called me trash grade when I first looked at my status!! I want to be shiny! I want to be something other than a boring metal sword! Even the bones would be better!

  So I started changing my form changed my metal exterior to bone added a few of the eyes I found from the ball of info in the void, it actually took a few attempts to get them right due to having to guess what was missing, I made my Handel have a finger guard and made myself a one bladed sword similar to a cutlass, a design a god after diving a second time with swords in mind, it took a few attempts, but I’m happy with my new form, my handle has a nice grip, it’s made of a soft but firm skin like material, I went a bit overboard and added teeth to the pommel and guard.

  it looks much better than a rusty sword but looks kinda ominous, man I wish I had gems or like a pretty metal, my transformation was sudden, a bit impulsive, but i think it’s completely within reason, yeah, that’s my excuse for wasting mana I can’t get back because the room is empty. I roll my eyes at my own stupidity then i realize i put eyes in my new form I can’t see! The room is very dark and empty besides Mr skelly my only companion, my internal voice is wistful and I realize doing nothing is so incredibly boring, I feel like I will go insane at this rate, I want to grow a head so I can bash it into the ground but not only do I not have enough mana, whenever I try and become something other than a sword, one of the seals on me tightens and stops me it’s annoying but it’s not like I can do much, the only thing I really can do is wait, and maybe look at my status

  Seems some of the things in the mutations tab changed when I changed form, though are relatively the same.

  I feel like I can use my SP to get a skill and my biomass to mutate, I decided to put my biomass in the eyes mutation and I get a popup

  [would you like to mutate eyes from +0 to +1, this will cost 1 biomass]

  I hit yes and my eyes feel like something is building in them I’m happy until they feel like they have been dipped in a really spicy hot sauce. WHYYYY WHY DID I DO THIS WHY DID I NOT MAKE EYELIDS I NEED TO BLINK BUT I CANT EVEN MOVE AAAAAAAAWAAA!! After about ten seconds the feeling fades and I can see slightly better, the room still is dark but less, I’m just going to repress that whole experience, I feel myself internally shudder.

  Okay next thing the SP which I’m guessing means skill point when i think of spending it a list of skills pop up, it has many different skills, well, i mean many compared to the amount of skills i have, it says I have seven options

  [Skills]

  {Bite}

  {Slashing}

  {internal mana manipulation}

  {mana compression}

  {cultivate}

  {dash}

  {hide}

  I focus on the first one and a description pops up

  {Bite: increases the proficiency when using teeth or mandibles to attack}

  The slashing said basics the same thing with the teeth or mandibles part changed to claws and blades, the mana ones just said the increase efficiency and proficiency when shaping and compressing mana, the hide one and the dash one said

  {Hide:increases proficiency in finding effective ways to hide}

  {Dash: increases stamina usage for a speed boost for a short time}

  The ability’s seem incredibly useful if I wasn’t a sword trapped in a stone! My anger that nearly half the skills are useless is big, I don’t have a use for basically any of these, including the cultivate one, there isn’t any mana around me! I don’t even have a mouth so I can’t bite! Whyyy I can’t even use bite I don’t have a mouth, there is only one option right now slashing, I’m just gonna hope it works when someone is wielding me

  [would you like to confirm buying {slashing} this will cost one SP]

  I confirm my purchase and my mind feels like it’s being massaged it’s a wonderful feeling as my brain fills with knowledge through little streams. I look at my status for one last time
