Chapter 10 - Evolution
I found my icy death box only partially melted so I fixed it up and continued my eradication of the endless waves of constructs.

'Would you like to evolve your class [Void Sorceress] to [Horror of the Deep]?'
Yes! Yes! Yes! I made it to 200! The worst part is that there isn't an obvious choice, but that's okay because 3 of them are awesome. Horror of the Deep is right off the list. Another madness one just had to be added, didn't it.
Stellar Angel is awesome I definitely need more healing, and flying is delightful. On the other hand its very nonviolent sounding which probably means my damage output would plateau, while the focus shifts to support.
Rift mage is my fighting style to a T. Like it's basically saying you do this thing, now you can be better at it. Going just by requirements it is better than Stellar Angel. Very interested but doesn't say much in the way of new aspects.
Daughter of Oblivion continues my quest for feminine titles. It also has the highest number of requirements, making it the strongest option by exclusivity. It seems to focus less on rifts and more on manipulation in general but the rifts were a requirement. The declared daughter part makes my nose bleed when I try to think on it, so... It is the only viable option that mentions a resistance which means probably more durable than the others.
It really is between rift and daughter, angel while good is just not me. I comb over daughter's requirements an fluff. The brings the end of all things is A) super edgy, B) probably means great at killing things even those above my pay grade C) could be talking about collateral damage of being a danger to innocents. Though it does mention control of her powers which offsets the idea its passively harming others. Rift is purely about distance and control, but not power.
I might regret it but I choose Daughter of Oblivion.

Category: Healing - Body Enhancement - Void Magic
'Skills gained in Daughter of Oblivion:
'Active: Curse of Oblivion - lvl 1
Mystically mark a creature for destruction reducing their resistances and ability to heal.
Category: Curse - Void Magic'
Void creation is neat, mostly looks like slightly bigger numbers and new fluff text. Sphere of Annihilation now prevents teleports, I can invest a lot more mana, and it can scale even further. Void and space manipulation lets me more directly manipulate space rather than just breaking it with voids.
Null Form is the biggest change. With the important part being that the healing no longer requires mana recovery, and it lets me heal from even fatal injuries. Some melted skin, disintegrated skin, frost bitten skin, some poison, and a pierced shoulder are what I've dealt with so far. Does fatal mean an arrow to the heart or does it mean even things like decapitation? I'm never willingly testing the limits there.
I'm even lighter now, I'm mildly concerned I'll become weightless at some point. More pain reduction without leveling the skill, very nice, maybe gaining resistances won't suck as much anymore. Lastly there is that curse. Sounds good for killing big things resistant to dying, I'll have to see how effective it actually is in action.
I tested my Sphere of Annihilation, max strength, in a room with lots of clutter to absorb. Damn I was glad I did it far away because the room imploded as the walls buckled and were consumed. I think I broke a part of the dungeon. Annihilation indeed, great way to destroy a house, unless its magic or something. Void and space manipulation did give me something new, basically telekinesis, I could already teleport objects but now I could lift them.
So I have 1 point to unlock a third tier skill, which skill gets upgraded. I feel as though it'd have to be Cosmic Rift or Null Form, they are both essential and upgrades to them would probably give more essential upgrades like long distance rifts and more survivability. Cosmic Rift it is, Null Form you're next.
Active: Cosmic Rift - 3rd lvl 1
Shift space to your will, making objects or people appear somewhere else.
2nd stage: You can tear rifts in space connecting two distant points. Rifts are static and must be placed within one mile of each other. You can create [6] pairs of rifts.
3rd stage: You can create up to one spatial anchor, You can open rifts and teleport to your spatial anchor no matter the distance. Once you place a spatial anchor you must wait a month before you can move it.
Category: Void Magic - Space Magic
I didn't expect the anchor itself but it accomplished what I thought it would. Now that I have it I need a home. I could also use a vacation from leveling. I knew deep down that Adicus's concern over my rapid growth was valid. I needed space, heh, and to really think about my new life. Besides my skills in Maiden of Winter aren't nearly good enough to evolve. Actually can I just ignore an evolution prompt and wait for another?
I'm getting lost in thoughts on leveling again. I'm gonna leave, and make a home. Only once I've sorted out my mess should I resume. Now where is a good place for a house?
