Thanks for the chapter! I've reread the reincarnation of the time worm section a few times now and it's easily my favorite part of this chapter.

2023-10-01 00:52:58 +0000 UTCI can't get over that a former social worker's most significant magic is literally sitting down with someone and making absolutely anything be their future. It's unbelievably poetic. And like with the worm when they can resist and fight Reincarnation, he just has to convince them that yes they can be better than before.

2023-09-30 22:58:22 +0000 UTCHe once spent an afternoon in the desert crafting like 5 different spells just because he needed spells. With his friends on standby with healing wands because he kept breaking the Script's rules with his incredibly powerful song based spell crafting method and creating errors resulting in backlash. There was 100% a time when he used to just craft spells for fun and because he had a need for spells. He still has that need all the time, but he doesn't bother making new ones unless it's a real spur of the moment big event. Like Grand Reincarnation. Most of his casual spell crafting went away. He's basically made a Reson generating spell and Grand Reincarnation since he Ascended. The rest is basically just ancient, mostly depreciated (looking at 90% of his combat magic), spells buffed up with Resons.

2023-09-30 22:52:55 +0000 UTCHe made magic this chapter. He doesn't have the Script helping him anymore, so he needs to do it all manually. And he's still exploring that. But he needed to help people, and so that's what he did. Most of his magical creations were made in response to a threat.

2023-09-30 22:33:12 +0000 UTCSeems a bit silly that he's not enacting grand magic spell creation every time he needs it. He could've made a grand Benevolent Cityshape with a minor act of Will and a song to the mana with Resons and accomplished what he was unsure he could do with Reson-based Cityshape. He should basically be doing this to every single instance where he finds he has a spell but isn't sure if it'll work how he wants it to work. He already has the baseline, all he needs is a more transcendent working and he knows exactly how to do that. He's like... literally the Wizard-King of spell crafting back on Veird. No one could match him in crafting spells off the cuff when he needs them. Just a shame he stopped exploring spell crafting and instead just cobbles together results from poor constituent parts. He used to *love* crafting spells. Like, I feel he could create a very complicated Reson-based Generate Particle Matter spell that created anything he wished to create so long as he had the resources on hand. And since Atomic magic isn't banned here, he could literally create all basic elements from their individual atomic components. Instead he plucks elements from the atmosphere or whatever and manually Duplicates them. Just seems like a missed opportunity when this was his bread and butter for a significant portion of the series before he got lazy and just reused old spells in new ways because he was trying to avoid accidentally enacting Grand Wizardry at Rozeta's behest.

2023-09-30 22:27:59 +0000 UTCGreat Start to Erick’s immortal career on margleknot. I like how Erick is exploring the nuances of what makes Elemental Good and elemental Evil. And I hope to see more of Erick shaking up the established system. In the terms of magic I’m hoping to see why Erick didn’t have the spell creating message because that seems to be like a detail that might be important later on. Anyways loved everything and thanks for the chapter.
