It was once again time for gilles to try to figure out how she was going to become stronger. The High Priestess and the Sacred order of the Flames Reach were on the cusp of another harrowing situation, this time possibly the most dangerous one yet. All of their hard, intensive work so far had been accumulating to this event. This was not something that had ever been seen before though, this was not for power, a country or fame and the like. This was all for one thing, religion. Their goal was to build the number of followers of the great flame lord that had no name. So with this it was time for her to find new sources of strengths yet again.

She has only known defeat after defeat since she had left the sanctuary that was the gracious kingdom of Sassan. She had even got her body more disfigured than it was to begin with. She had lost her right arm in a defeat to one of the two dragons of Kou while she was trying to capture the guard base of a city in the country. Her vocal chords were severed, burned and healed but made it painful to talk, this happened when she stabbed her own throat in an attempt to break a spell that was put on her body. She was not aware of who the man was but he was a big name in the world apparently. Then there was her left arm and shoulder which was torn from her body by a lion made of magic also from a big name that she did not know. All of this had made her weaker but it also gave her a sort of enlightenment as well, one that she knew would end up making her stronger.

This time she was not going to just focus on a singular part of her body such as a limb but this time she would use her whole body. The goal would be to try to unlock the capability to use her whole body in conjunction with her ability to manipulate her body at will. Previously she could only focus on one or two parts of her body at a time but with all of her failures she felt that she was close to being able to unlock her body’s full potential. This would greatly widen the amount of functions her body could do and open an opportunity to countless possibilities when it came to attacking or defending.

First she would have to restore her body to it’s former glory so that she would be able to handle the full capacity of her body and to be able to use her sword which has become one of her main weapons in battle now. To do this she would need new arms, ones to replace the ones that she had lost. In order to do this however would be quite a long and arduous process. Since she was already in the city and in the central church of the flame she would send them to find a suitable volunteer for the transplant operation.

While she was waiting she would go ahead and start with her training, knowing it would take a few days before they found suitable parts. She would not be doing this training inside the confines of the central church however. This time she would go to the garden that Dusk the first had made when she was still a leader of the Dragon’s Horde Merchant Alliance. It is a beautiful garden full of pansies, hyacinths and other sorts of plants. She would sit under a large oak tree which would be her initial training spot. She would begin with the way that she always started off her training, meditation. It was a process to help her chaotic mind settle into a more peaceful state of mind. Not only did this help put her mind at ease but it also allowed her to get a better understanding and feel for her body and how it works in conjunction with her powers of body manipulation. She was used to working her body a few limbs at a time but what if she was to broaden her thinking to her body as a whole. How would that work differently then just focusing on sections. Also, she would have to come up with new ways to manipulate said body and a larger scale.

A part of it was just spreading affects she could already do just to the rest of her body. In her case since a majority of her fighter prowess relied on her hair it would just mean using all of her hair, including the small hair follicles that covered the majority of her exterior. This would give her a wider range of functionality as well as make up for weaknesses that she has such as solely relying on certain parts of her body more than others. The other half was coming up with a new way to utilize the wider affected area. Instead of focusing on hardening the skin on an arm she could spread it to the whole body now. Thoughts lie this is what will help her become stronger. She needs to not only train her body physically but mentally as well. The most exquisite weapons are useless if you don’t first acquaint yourself with it and think of ways to use the weapons. It may not seem like much but this would serve as an important part of the training that she is currently undergoing.

For 4 days she would perform hours of meditation along with physical workouts and exercises in order to help keep her body in shape and prepared for the excruciating training that it was to go through. On the 5th day she would take a break as her followers had finally returned. She had just waken from a long deserved sleep to the sounds of hurried footsteps. In came the Hidden Flames that she had tasked with this mission. Gilles had instructed them that she needed two fresh arms, the fresher the better in fact. She would go down to the sub layer of the central church which they had built for the more questionable side of the Sacred Order of the Flames Reach. It was made with the intent to prevent sounds from being heard from the exterior and hopefully any type of observation spells. Currently in the center of this sublevel was a table with a corpse on it. It was clear from the look that this corpse died today. It was not clear to an untrained eye how the corpse had passed but that was for the best to be honest. It did not concern the High Priestess how this being died in fact. She did not like the idea of someone dying without a trial of fire but sometimes it was a must, this would be the first time in ages that she had such smooth skin.

The body was a woman who seemed to be in her late twenties, a few years older than Gilles herself. The woman was clearly some level of magician and did not focus on physical training much. This was not to her liking since she would have preferred something that fit her body that was trained through years of knighthood, but they are roughly the same size as her arms where the joins meet so that would be what matters most. Also the skin tone was no where near dark but due to gilles pale skin it would definitely stand out. She would grin none the less because this would mean that she was finally whole again. One of the members in the hidden flame happened to be a medical professional so they would make surgical cuts to dismember the corpse as well as prepping gilles arms. This preparation was done by basically filleting a bit of her flesh so that the old wounds were open once more, showing muscle and bone that hid underneath. The Pale Lady was no stranger to pain but this would still prove to be an excruciating process. Once these steps were done Her own snow white hair would be used to sew up the two limbs, leaving a stitch patterns right below her right arm and above her left shoulder. Once the procedure was done she would spend the rest of the day sleeping as this took all the energy and willpower that she could muster.

The next day she would go back to her training. For the first week her limbs would barely be functionable so she had to stick with meditation and light exercises. However, after the week was up she would be able to feel like she could use them, her tendons and nerves connecting to the new tissue. Now she could not really feel any pain or anything in the new limbs but she could still manage to operate them like normal.

Now this is when the training will truly begin. With her body now fully intact she can start attempting to manipulate her body, taking her thoughts from the past week and putting them into action. First she would begin each day with her arms, focusing on getting used to their movements and the new nerve system that controlled the arms. This would prove to be extremely difficult as she could already tell that she would have to perform this arduous task every single time that she was to replace her limbs. Hopefully this would take less time after multiple limbs. The rest of the day which just so happened to be the majority, would be towards her capabilities as a body manipulator. This would be done by taking a simple manipulation, such as softening the bones in her body to make them more flexible, and spread that unique property throughout her whole body. She got the hang of manipulating multiple limbs at once but that was an entirely different kind of process, one that involved on simultaneous activations. While, this was one massive activation that would affect her whole body.

Since she had no real experience in hardening skin or affecting the bones she would just have to use the ability that was her specialty, hair manipulation. She would attempt first by just controlling the strands of hair that were attached to her head. This was something that she had done time after time again so it was simple enough. Now she was about to attempt to grow out the hair that was all over her body. This is something that would of course take a lot more effort, as if trying to force out every last of energy that was contained in herself. This is not something that she would be able to do at first, in fact it would take a little over a week of training to be able to gain the ability to use her full body through this method of training. At first it was just a minute affect on her body, but by the end of the week she was able to grow out her body hair out as much as she wanted and even move it at will, forming it into spikes or blades.

Along with this her control over her limbs had become complete and she felt as if they were fully hers despite knowing that they would not be able to be preserved in this condition for long. She felt like she could do more too, with her power to manipulate her body. She was certain that she would now be capable of transforming her body or at least parts of it. This is something that she was certain that she would be able to use to elevate herself above simple manipulations that she can currently do. However, this is something that would have to wait and be attempted at its own time as she did not have the opportunity to focus on transforming her body in such a manner at this moment.

With her training done she wold go rest before returning to her duty as the high priestess of SOFR.
