This is the perfect opportunity. I’ll assign a few members of the hive to collecting material, and divide the rest into sections to study specific material.

@Memory

Klisp'Anarion: YAYRL! ulrulrrlrlpplp! *WHOHOO! I finally get to use my world pockets... er... yeah, i developed pocket dimensions specifically for natural growth of the top tire alchemical ingredients* *He waves his paws and dozens of portals open to impressive environments that seem to be literally their own biospheres and ecosystems*

∆: How did I even get here... Did I like... stop time or something...

@RoadkilBanana

*You suddenly hear an out of place skittering sound that seems to come from inside one of these metal buildings -- Skskskskskssss --*

*The countless duplicates of me all begin practicing at once*
Is there a way to create more space for us? This is a bottleneck right now.

@Memory

Klisp'Anarion: *Nods gesturing to the many doors and archways that have been manifested in between the bookshelves and the elevated platforms with hovering stairs leading to them* Prprlrprl, prlrprlr! *I did said i have these extentions to my research lab here for when i hold multiversal discourses and millions of souls pop in to participate...*

Ah, well... there’s always combat training.

@Memory

*finally i get it and begin reading the basic philosophy of how energies and mana and aether plus will and the right tool conjure up events that are classed as magic from the basic elements for newbies book*

Klisp'Anarion: Prprlrprl, prlrprlrprlpplrlr, olprrlprloprlrlopr... *Right after this next book, i'll put you to practice Prism, while he is still... getting the hang of it...* *Rubs his forehead with visible frustration*

*You are given the book: How to assemble your first Essentia transmuting tool -- written by Kilogoln Ariol and co-authored by the Writing Hands of God*

His book or mine?

@Memory

Klisp'Anarion: Prrlrl.. YYILRL! *His... BEN! YOU ARE READING IT UPSIDE DOWN!*

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Shadrack Nor>

Ah, right, I didn’t think of that part. Sorry.
*After a few hours of in-depth study, several copies start to re-merge*

@Memory

Soldier Boy: *proceeds to multiply only around one hundred fold due to my discomfort still with this new ability then takes the "Elementis and The Philosophy that Binds all" book, written by Doromorri, and begins sifting through the pages... * Ey... yo!... Squid fellow... Klisp... what am i looking at?



Klisp'Anarion: *Sighs audibly among gurgles and purlrurlrs* Pooorlorlrorlr! rplrlrprlrplrprlr.... *Prism! can you...? uuhhhh.... That book is a more advanced level of the mechanics of cosmic leylines... get the elements for dummies first!*

*I walk over to the ore on the vehicle, curious as to what it is, I try pushing it... it doesn't move...*

@RoadkilBanana

*everything is dead silent... you look around and this is likely a steppe or desert world or something like that, with a dense enough atmosphere that at least the wind should be heard... but nope... grave silence! looking at the ore, it is a multitude of iron, copper, zinc, coal, and a bunch of stone, probably from a nearby quarry?, you look at your feet... it seems that the dust you are kicking when walking moves for a bit shortly before freezing in place, in fact all your footsteps previously seem to be tiny clouds of dust and pebbles frozen in the air*

*Takes the books and quickly splits into a thousand, all opening and reading different chapters at once*
We need more space.

@Memory

*Squeezed in place by a comical situation Klisp'Anarion barely giggles his tentacles:* Ptl...prlrll... ppuuuuurrlrl... *You... don't... saaaaay...* *Blinks desperately* Prlrprlprlllprpl!! *Platforms and auxiliary dimensional halls, open!* *As he says that several platforms begin hovering taking large groups of your clones and segmenting them evenly through the heights of the room, and in between bookshelves, large halls with seats all around manifest that seem to be in paradoxical spaces*

Klisp'Anarion: prlrplrlprlrlrlp!! poooorororororolrllrrlr! *These spaces are potentially endless here, though i do have to spend plenty of time writing them in the spirit codex of the Akashic Library, i do hold classes across the multiverse and ocasionaly, lets just say that more than a million people show up!... also... THINK OF BENJAMIN!* *He smacks you on one of your clone's head without you really feeling it due to the no violence in heaven mechanic* Prlrplrprlrl! *He needs space to do the same thing here!*

*As you open the book on potions you are immediately stricken by its complexity...*



*The words seamlessly begin translating in your mind and the symbols become clearer*

*On Potions and How to Properly Mix Them -- Written with passion by Ugrix'Anverion and peer reviewed by the council of Giolholm-77...

...In the heart of the verdant glade, where the three suns kiss the dew-kissed leaves, seek the crimson bloom of the bloodroot. Pluck it gently, with reverence for its life-giving essence. Under the orange glow of the gas giant's light, harvest the roots of the Kliovial streak, a whisper of dreams clinging to its minty fragrance...*

*Your vision begins to be filled with the image of a figure, robed in twilight hues, the tentacles gently dancing below their head, their fluffy paws tracing intricate patterns in the air which turn to iridescent sigils that promptly hover into the mix below. A cauldron of brass simmering over a crackling fire, its contents a swirling concoction of vibrant colors...*

*...Combine these sacred herbs in equal measure, their energies intertwined like lovers' embrace. As you stir, visualize the desired effect, your intentions a beacon guiding the transformation. With each clockwise turn, infuse the potion with the warmth of your three-hearts, with each counter-clockwise turn, the coolness of your mind...

When the planet reaches its zenith, and the stars align in celestial harmony, utter the incantation thrice. Let your voice resonate with the ancient power that slumbers within the earth and the ether. And as the potion simmers, ready to bestow its blessings, pour it gently in its appropriate container...*

*You continue reading instructions on alchemy as knowledge pierces your minds and enlightens you on both familiar alchemy and alien from worlds untold*

Are we not able to parallelize this part?

@Memory

Klisp'Anarion: Klyklllrlrlrrllplpplp, prlrplprlrlprlrprlllpr... *To be quite honest, i only know of your ability enough from what you said, and it makes sense, so technically speaking yes? okay, you go ahead and try, right there on the top shelf is the nature of basal elements and how to mix them by Ugrix'Anverion, an arch alchemist of my people, the language should be auto-translated to yours due to... heaven mechanics... *

Klisp'Anarion: *Turns to my clones with narrow eyes* Pplplplplplrplrprlpl... ololololrorlorlrplplp... *Yyyyyooou... you need to learn WHAT magic is first... get yourselves some copies of the elements of arcana and the foundations of spirit, right there...*

Don’t forget to recombine every so often to share knowledge! It won’t work unless you’re all gradually learning!

@Memory

Roger there mateeeeee!!!! AAAAH!

Klisp'Anarion: Prprlrlrr, Poolololopplrprlo... *So, potions? or arcane artifact theory?*

Soldier boy clone: Whichever is the most elemental squid fluffer guy!

Klisp'Anarion: Glrollpl! Prlrprlrprlr, uulrlulrlrl.... *Name's Klisp'Anarion thank you very much! And you prism?*
