Dammit Ben, how about making one of those for Thera and anyone else?

Oh! Dark Tower when I was phased into the wrong reality!”

2026-02-05 23:20:31 +0000 UTCBen hasn’t made a Mythical item yet, which has been hampered by the fact he doesn’t want to Awaken Crafting/Enchanting before Connect. He’s got a plan, which is probably a good one because we haven’t heard it yet.

2026-02-05 23:17:44 +0000 UTCWhat happened to the robot man? Why can't he make more of those and put his minds into them?

2026-02-05 23:15:25 +0000 UTCThis may be a good time to explain to the kids that he alreaddy died once before in what brought him to this world. and with the danger the world is, he likely won't survive the demon god coming, but will at least take it with him if he must so that the world can keep going.

2026-02-05 20:27:33 +0000 UTCI'm looking forward to what Ben will try to awaken his connect. Given he has done very intense things in multiple fields, it feels like he is going to have to combine multiple extremes simultaneously. Anybody have ideas?

2026-02-05 19:51:56 +0000 UTCon the topic of family... with the help of the greys and the summoning spell he's unraveling... I'm almost expecting Ben to check in on his family back on Earth at some point.

2026-02-05 19:46:29 +0000 UTC"I’m already plotting my dastardly revenge against the demon who did that to me..." Yeah, those are fighting words. That poor demon, or whatever it actually is will end up in a world of pain soon-ish. And Ben finally crafted something for himself, nice.

2026-02-05 19:41:21 +0000 UTCEspecially since he never really gave himself the proper room to finish grieving, even back at the beginning….

2026-02-05 19:36:25 +0000 UTCSo many fun tortures Ben will not be subjected to! Intolerable! (but I agree, clairvoyance should have been a no-brainer if Turnip didn’t already have a hard enough time writing Ben’s brokenness)

2026-02-05 19:35:24 +0000 UTCThanks for the chapter! That family line hit hard. Its so nice to see Ben having a family again. I'd like to think that for just a millisecond all his minds stopped to chew over the word.

2026-02-05 19:22:47 +0000 UTCOk but what about the grove ?
Laurent Jerry
2026-02-05 19:22:02 +0000 UTCWhile I’m gnawing off my own arm, waiting for the Grand Grove Relocation, I can -not- fault Ben for deciding to take the day off for addressing all the trauma. And adding more doodads to his personal armory counts as working on his own trauma. *goes back to gnawing on her arm and eyeing the magic trees*
