  1. [11:57] After completing his tasks, the scientist returned to his laboratory once more - this time, with Piers' company by his side. In the place they entered and above a rune system implanted in the ground, there was a huge metallic humanoid!
  2.  
  3. That is..
  4.  
  5. An automaton, which however only had the 'external and thick' part of its interior, that is - its shell and mechanisms for movement. It still lacked the wiring and also, the runic system as well as the core, that would make it work.
  6.  
  7. And that's what they would do today.
  8.  
  9. At least, the wiring and runic system.
  10.  
  11. "This is the Prototype 1-A I've been talking about for a while, doesn't look like much yet - but when finished, it will be magnificent!" He informed the resident of Final Frontier, before then..
  12.  
  13. Open a crate next to them, which contained bags of blue mercury dust, as well as adamantite ingots! Materials they will be using at that moment.
  14.  
  15. "Well, time to work." He added by gathering his tools, to begin his work.
  16. (Acantho)
  17. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  18.  
  19. [12:07] The daily routine of gather errants and collect Money, Always was safier with a friend, piers would not refuse help Acantho if asked, unless something of greater importance was happening, when done he raises a eyebrow as they go for his house.
  20.  
  21. A big rune on ground followed a golem... figure? piers stares at him with certain confusion.
  22.  
  23. "He looks complex already, i bet he will dig that Cliff like was kid's play when complete." He nods while cross his arms to his back in some sort of military pose.
  24.  
  25. Piers look at the box knowing some of the elements inside of it.
  26.  
  27. "Can i help with something?" He says.
  28.  
  29. "Im not skilled with articing or machinery but im still a magi." He asks while still in his pose.
  30. (Piers Glaidd)
  31. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  32.  
  33. [12:13] It wouldn't take long for the sound of Acantho's workshop machinery to begin probing, as drones worked and assisted their master in turning the adamantite ingots into thin wires.
  34.  
  35. Quite the sight.
  36.  
  37. Which, when they were ready, the scientist began to take to the automaton - which in turn was opened and then, the artificer began to connect these wires inside. It started from the chest, connecting the center where there was a chamber inside to the other mechanisms.
  38.  
  39. Since it was from there that the energy would come, when the core was placed.
  40.  
  41. "You see, I want you to get me tools and carry the materials for me. It will make my life so much easier." He explained, because that's what the others also did when they helped him, "After all, there are few with the necessary knowledge to help with what I'm doing, so? Don't worry.
  42.  
  43. You're here more to keep me company, to chat while I work - since my animunculi can't offer that." The same thing that happened to Kran, would happen to Glaidd.
  44.  
  45. There was no escape.
  46.  
  47. Regardless, the scientist worked.. Filling the interior with adamantite threads, which was a great magic conductor - hence why, it was widely used in confections such as staff.
  48. (Acantho)
  49. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  50.  
  51. [12:27] Piers despite offering help cannot avoid let a discouraged face, he just needed a muscle head to help, he thought, but few momments later he would let his determination fill him, he would be the best tool and materials transporter.
  52.  
  53. "I see." He says with his expression, now sharp and already comming for the box, lifting it with a certain difficultie, despite being powder, still had adamantite know to be heavy, without using his mana to power he begin to move on his shoulders close to the scientist.
  54.  
  55. Huh... company? he could do that, is better than he think he was just a BEEFED helper.
  56.  
  57. "Oh i can do that, i imagine work for hours alone can drain more than stamina from someone, specialy when his work looks like long." He stands by waiting for he ask any tools, avoiding talk when he thought the scientiest concentration was fully needed in some process he was doing , more anwsering him than asking.
  58. (Piers Glaidd)
  59. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  60.  
  61. [12:34] There were countless connections to be made, that is, those connected to the arms and legs, to the core and also to the head.. Which hadn't even been positioned yet!
  62.  
  63. But after a lot of work this part was completed. And then he would go to the legs and start the connections, when finished he would go to the arms to connect these properly.
  64.  
  65. As expected.
  66.  
  67. "Somewhat yes.
  68.  
  69. And it is funny to think, that there is people who say that studying, doing mostly mental work - doesn't wear you out, when in fact, the mental use continues to exhaust you in many aspects.
  70.  
  71. I mean, look at this! I have to make wires, connect them to the gears.. Then make the runic system!" He commented as he cut some wires apart, linked them and clipped them inside his creation.
  72.  
  73. It was a extensive work, remarkably, but after much of that had been completed.
  74.  
  75. "Give me the bags of blue mercury dust, it is time to work upon the runic system." He informed, pointing to the crate.
  76. (Acantho)
  77. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  78.  
  79. [12:41] Seeing Acantho work in the whole Humanoid figure, remind piers one time he helped his mother to make a toy for a child once, stuffing a leather and cloth with staw, from the filling to the sewing, he lets a small smile from it.
  80.  
  81. "I do belive specific Works require specific efforts, for example as long i enjoy company training, doing alone allow me focus in the whole process with a deeper efficiency, but maybe is more related to me not being able to focus well attenction in two things at same time." he says
  82.  
  83. "Im my case both mental and physical is drained, if you think one cannot go well without other, if you drain you mind energy before the body even holding you lost the will to do exercises." He points up.
  84.  
  85. "So you can say mind is so much important as physical effoty." He nods.
  86.  
  87. He looks at the whole space that will be filled with time.
  88.  
  89. "And i imagine a single mistake will mess everything...." He can say that, heknew how a staff worked at some point and used to compare.
  90.  
  91. When requested he nods, taking the bags of dust that were inside the box, he keeps taking them and putting closer to acantho until he says was enough, not missing the chance to lift with tecnique, was a workout after all.
  92.  
  93.  
  94. (Piers Glaidd)
  95. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  96.  
  97. [12:47] With the bags delivered to him, the powder was first used on the center of the creature's chest, where the chamber for the core was. Runes were made in those referring to mana control, input and outpot.. Among similar ones.
  98.  
  99. In order to maintain adequate control in the area.
  100.  
  101. With these done after some minutes, he would go to the legs and arms, to start doing the movement control runes on them, so that the being could move properly once fully functional.
  102.  
  103. "In a way, one depends on the other - on this I have to agree with you.
  104.  
  105. But sometimes the focus must be maintained and only one of these becomes our priority." His speech echoed, while the powder was used..
  106.  
  107. Countless bags ended up being used in the process, until the last two were left.
  108.  
  109. That moment was when Acantho had already completed the runic system for the legs and arms, as well as some more in the chest, which connected the others to the Core's location.
  110.  
  111. "Alright, just need to work on the head now." He explained by going to get this one, that should receive a more advanced runic system than the other parts.
  112. (Acantho)
  113. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  114.  
  115. [12:58] Piers notice Aacntho does some steps with not only proficiency but without taking much time, remebering he still not doing well in his trainings, wondering how much time and practise he did to get in that level.
  116.  
  117. Piers keep taking and taking bags, over and over, wondering if he will use everything! just two ones were left as he stare at them on the box, he would take one of the last two but when he said about the head he let go inside he box again, he just touched it.
  118.  
  119. "Bet is the ingots not." He nods, withouht much stuff to talk piers does what he is famous to do, random stuff.
  120.  
  121. "So Mayor, you married already?" He asks.
  122.  
  123.  
  124. (Piers Glaidd)
  125. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  126.  
  127. [13:06] With the head in hands, it was partially opened by the scientist - and with the powder, the golemcrafter calmly began to make the runic system. This one was more complex than the others, as it would not only be the 'Control' part of the entity, but also where it would be..
  128.  
  129. The Semi-Consciousness.
  130.  
  131. Which was a runic system that covered a good part of the space of this being's head, as it held more runes besides those of following command, but also such as the one for speech and strategic thoughts.
  132.  
  133. Since the being, it would be a model of combat.
  134.  
  135. And for that, it at least needed a basic mind.
  136.  
  137. "Mm?" He muttered as he worked, hearing his friend ask the question, "Not exactly the case, but I'm in a relationship with Sahra Dryden, the tanned woman.. The Beautiful and Strong, magnificent one!
  138.  
  139. Who you must have seen beside me.
  140.  
  141. She is my faithful companion and one of the few I can truly trust. We plan to get married one day, but I don't know when that will be." He shrugged, it wasn't like it was a priority.
  142.  
  143. After all, it was just a silly ritual!
  144.  
  145. For now? Work, work, work.
  146. (Acantho)
  147. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  148.  
  149. [13:16] Piers can see he is doing more work for the head, he thought the most complex part would be the core but looks like he was wrong, after all a complex design would not let weak points be that much visible.
  150.  
  151. "Hm." He dont try understand why, or asks, probaly was a question dumb to be done, involving a knowledge he dont had, so he keeps quiet.
  152.  
  153. "Oh i see, that one with the red cloth." He points
  154.  
  155. Laughting he completes.
  156.  
  157. "Maybe when New frontier begin to get safier and you dont had tons of work to do." He smiles.
  158.  
  159. "Hopefully after the A1 begin his work? wont take long depending what we can find we can give a giant step in the settlement Evolution." He cross his arms at back again.
  160.  
  161. For now? if not asked help with carry more stuff, he would do push ups.
  162. (Piers Glaidd)
  163. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  164.  
  165. [13:21] The work was delicate, but in the end, when the rune for the vision was completed, an addition to the others - the head was ready. Such part, was taken to the automaton and with the help of his animunculi assistants..
  166.  
  167. It was positioned.
  168.  
  169. Wires were connected and this one clicked into place given mechanisms. And so, it marked the completion of the body and all that was left now was the activation of its creation.
  170.  
  171. "Perfect, that will be enough.. Now we just need to activate this being, but we'll leave that for another time - we've been here for hours, we need to rest." That said, he walked away.
  172.  
  173. Third step completed, soon.. Prototype 1-A would be activated.
  174. (Acantho)
  175. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  176.  
  177. [13:25] Piers stops doing push ups when he heard he would activate, using the pure force in his arms to get stand with a single push doing a heavy sound when he land on floor.
  178.  
  179. "Lets put this fella to roll- oh." He says quite sad, he wanted see the robot activation but Acantho was right, some fresh air followed a rest was more than welcomed at both of them.
  180.  
  181. Following Acantho they would probaly sit in Final frontier square for chill out, or at least was what piers belived would happen.
  182. (Piers Glaidd)
