We are probably going to be busy with the corvids for some time but earthworms may be a good species to comminucate with, they probably give a nice Growth bonus.

[X][Action] Research a method to empower our friends using the Fire Within to enhance their survivability. Most distressing indeed to find our friends severely injured during the fight. Start with a Shield Coating that burns Evil Vines that try grasping on them, perhaps? Would require some form of Tree Stuff to anchor the spell, so imbuing a shaped piece of branch, leaf, bark, or nut with some Fire Within to make it "alive", and anchoring it with the Intent to Protect the bearer, but specify who or what gets to be Protected? Hmm.

[X][Minor Question] Speak to Mr. Tavish about the existence of the Fire Within and our ability to shape it, and ask him if there exists other sorts of "stuff" Within, such as the Light Within.

Anybody want to team up with me to try a Light/Darkness Negacion attack?

I doubt I could pull it off myself, but if I threw the darkness half, and a different tree threw the light half in a coordinated fashion, maybe we could make something happen.

It's probably too late to really help with the Vines but it's probably something that we should do someday because it's likely that vampires are going to be involved.
 
Interesting. Our interlocutor is scared of our capacity to Grow rapidly. We'll have to make it regret tipping its hand later.

[X][Action] Tear Off The Vines
I have no other preferences of note. Hopefully I can free up a Survival action or two for the Heart Trees.
 
Ooo an actual Survival action eh ? time to tear these little shits off of our tree bods, damn fucking parasites.

Edit: also what do you think they were searching for on their first attack ? I believe it was like a pixie or something, one that would be connected to us and would help us grow, thoughts ?

My guess? Probably our equivalent to their "mother vine." Another way they're underestimating us: Every single tree in our Forest is completely sentient, not just the progenitor.

shouldn't we at least get to journeyman light magic before we try something like that?
 
The war continue. that's mean it's time to throw more vine fodder small fluffy friends to help us fight the evil vine.

It is pretty clear from the update that we are almost behind the expected growth curve, so as soon as these vines get off us we should focus on growth stuff.

Agreed.

Glad I went with Generic Elder Tree. I can do just about anything that's needed.

Also, 6 more votes and I become an Ancient Tree.

on second thought, you are an unpredictable tree, that changes the calculus considerably. I only have 1 dice in offence, but sure. I really don't like the idea of giving the vines some growth anyway.

[X][Action] Provide light magic to aid the Unpredictable Tree in an attempted Light Dark Negacion.

A thought: We should look into weaponizing Ice directly instead of just using it to support our Fire. I mean, cold is almost as deadly as fire, so you can't say it wouldn't be effective, and if we do well enough we might even be able to force the Vines back into hibernation.

Plus, y'know, it'd give us another form of attack just in case we happen to run into something weak to it. I mean, I'm sure the Kraken would've hated Ice, for one.

I'm not gonna do it myself, since I'm busy with the shields right now, but it's an idea someone else could potentially pick up.

Plus it would be a new attack against an enemy that seems to change to be strong against what we used. So the next attack may be designed to be very resistant against fire.

Besides worries like 'poison our creek with malice' and 'attack our allies'.
