[Not even superheroes are immune to the wiles of suspicious journals. Although his was tucked away like usual, somehow during his morning routine, the journal was knocked from its place and opened. People watching won't get to see much beyond the vague image of a man holding up an unusual lantern-shaped device, but only from the back. He begins reciting these words:]
In brightest day, in darkest night,
No evil shall escape my sight
Let those who worship evil's might,
Beware my power... Green Lantern's light!
((If you like, have a way, way too dramatic version of the oath
here)).
[As he does, it'll become difficult to tell what's going on due to the surge of green light coming from the lantern. Eventually it will dim and the journal will be shut after it's spotted. John will get to any replies later in the day.
Aside from his normal patrol across the skies of Luceti, John can be found in the evening north of the village, in the clearing south of the mountains, trying to work on his talents with the ring. Particularly he is focused on multitasking, creating separate beams of light with his ring, each one forming into complex creations, usually the shapes of tools or weapons. Other times he'll be painstakingly reconstructing vehicles, with the internal mechanics themselves being fabricated, to build solid, functional shapes. This isn't John's usual style of Power Ring usage and is providing him a solid challenge with his power being halved. But maybe he can make up for a loss of power by making stronger, more solid shapes.]
