Planning the Lifebringer

Entering the residence, the figure would go to the center of his workshop - there, upon a table, some parchments were spread out and pens placed to the side by smaller animunculi.

Because, it was time to prepare new schemes, for another project they would be working on.

"As you may know, 1-A is a prototype, he is the first in an assembly line of combat automatons. However, I don't intend to stop now, no no no.

Because?" The figure looked at them, with a visage in which there was a smile that contrasted with his tired eyes, "It's time to create a magitech machine! Which will automatically assemble the series of 2-A, the brothers and sisters of 1-A." With that said, he turned to the schematics again.

With his pen, he would start making lines and preparing blueprints of it.

"We will today establish the resources to be used, as plan how this will work." A few nods from him would follow the words uttered, "And you both will help in the future steps of this project.. Understood?

Good! I knew I could count on you two!" He added before falling back into silence.
(Acantho)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:44] Asphalt listened on while remaining idle in one place. It stood there, silent and unmoved. As still as an inanimate statue, the golem lingered to hear out what Acantho had discussed.

it bobbed its head robotically, before looking to the side, glancing at the Hivekin member. Not once did it question how the insect made its way in the Final Frontier, let alone journey far without expression much connection to their one and only Queen.

Asphalt will offer a bit of commentary in response to its' Creator's words. The construct never seemed to budge, even at the mentioning of it having a 'sister' or a 'brother'. To imply that that a golem had a gender, Asphalt has to assume that Acantho is building the others with models to reflect masculinity and femineity.

"What does Acantho need? Asphalt is still focused on getting donations from Aphros."

(Asphalt 1-A)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:46] His training with the big machine was interrupted by Acantho's call 'but what could it be?' Acantho was more ambitious in wanting to create more machines. But Kran thought this was a little dangerous since the first creation already managed to develop thoughts.

"All first attempts are usually a failure, don't you want to see what the future can do with your first automaton?" Kran pointed to Asphalt 1-A "Isn't it better to evaluate the errors it probably has to correct?" Kran understood absolutely nothing but understanding that machines are usually not created to perfection on the first try was an obvious thing to think about.

"Even if you talk to him, you may be able to find some role in which he is incapable, for example, he is huge he is certainly not the best machine to hide his own appearance, you will never be able to take him on your trips where you need to be stealthy. His footsteps are heavy, yes, but on the other hand he is strong and resilient." Kran witnessed this himself and as he always evaluates his enemies to adapt to an evolution in which in the future he would have no problem with this type of enemy, big and brute... 'the bigger the size the bigger the fall' and finished "If Do you intend to create another one, would it be one like him? With the naked eye I don't see any apparent flaws."

[14:51] K'thul hovers in, looking onto the trio curiously.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:53] With his tools, the figure would start to draw - first he began with the shape of the machine, which would be rather huge - something circular that would then have magitech arms, made to then be used to assemble the animunculi.

Meanwhile, he listened and answered them.

"Simple 1-A, I will need resources! Such as iron, copper, adamantite, blue mercury and others - these will be used both for the machine and for the assembly of the entities.

Also, I'll need crystals of elemental lightning, to produce a core potent enough to power the machine." His speech echoed, the answer being offered primarily to his creation.

Before focusing again on the work, where now he concluded the representation of the 'body' of that machine - the basis that would serve for future works. Yet, this is not over.

There is more to be done here.

"He has already shown great success in the areas I was looking for, what was required to be tested. So I will take what he has of 'good' and use to improve on the new models.

In addition to also using the moment to improve 1-A." Again answers were offered, this time to the insect that had become his helper a while ago - "And they won't all be the same, these models will be more versatile, unique on their own rights - depending on what it is necessary at the moment.

So don't worry, there will be more variety." That explained, again he focused on those schemes he created.

So much so that he hadn't even noticed the Siren's arrival.
(Acantho)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[14:59] Asphalt 1-A says, "Asphalt will form a list of essential items to get. "
[15:01] A scientist enveloped in his work, along with what could only be his assistant and the golem he created. Even if he'd come in late and hadn't heard the whole spiel, K'thul could feel the passion in the work.

It almost prompted the Anguill to pause and simply watch to see them continue on, even if magitech, golemcrafting, and artifcing were out of his knowledge for now.

But, as disheartening as it was to interrupt. K'thul had finished the task assigned to him.

"Mr. Acantho, sorry to interrupt here but I've finished what you've asked for."

The bag of power X's were taken out.

"Potions that strengthen magical power. All made and set. The amount I've brewed should be good enough I hope."
(K'thul)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:02] {Item} You picked up Power X x50. Dropped by K'thul.
[15:08] Slowly the schemes then began to take shape, the inner part mainly, which received the details that would refer to the internal mechanisms and runic system, such as the frame where a core would be placed.

This system was then connected to the arms and should be what would make them move, as expected.

It was notable that the machine would have a certain degree of 'intelligence', given the runes made, similar to 1-A, as it would need to assemble the 2-A series automatons - therefore, it would need to have a sense of what to do.

Indeed.

And as he worked on that, K'thul arrived! A thumbs up was given to this one as animunculis collected potions for the scientist - as he was busy currently.

"Thank you very much my friend, this will help increase 1-A's capabilities further." He reported as he worked, "We are preparing the blueprints for the next project, 'Lifebringer', a magitech machine that can create countless animunculi.

Golem." Two nomenclatures given, but both identified the same entities, as expected.
(Acantho)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:15] A simple nod was had at the vocal thanks, the Anguill watching as the one of the animunculis took the potions and stored them elsewhere.

Though with his explanation, the word 'animunculi' elicited a confused countenance across K'thul.

Until he clarified with the word 'Golem'. A look of recognition coming across now.

"Ah.

I'm sure you've figured, or are figuring out all the little details and complications that'd go into it. But if you have anything I can do to contribute towards it's creation, I'd be glad to help."
(K'thul)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:22] Kran nodded his head hearing about the automaton in part until he was right opening Kran's mind more "You're right." But kran is still wary of these machines. "Aren't you afraid that creating a colony of machines might make them want to take this place from you? It's just another story repeating itself, the story of the strongest rules." Kran crossed his arms, facing Acantho.

The conversation was interrupted by a person unknown to Kran, But if this in the lands of Acantho is not something Kran should be concerned about for now... for now..... "We continue this conversation another time Sir Acantho, I see that other matters already appeared and about potions and drinks I don't understand, but food then yes I'm the máster."
(Kran'varnx)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:23] Asphalt 1-A says, "Asphalt doesn't fathom the idea of taking a place of anyone lesser than Asphalt. Mortal lives aren't worth reaping. "
[15:24] Kran'varnx exclaims, "See?! he already knows he can take it from you if he get stronger than you!"
[15:25] K'thul blinks, taking a moment to peer up at the golem.
(K'thul)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

[15:25] Asphalt 1-A says, "Asphalt doesn't see the benefit. Nor would it wish it -can- take Acantho's spot. Even if it's possible. "
[15:26] Sahra Dryden says, "Plenty ominous' I'll say"
[15:28] With the runic system done, the figure added the last details - that is, the list of materials on the side, as well as what each part would do in this machine.

Basic things required in this type of schematics, for future information.

At the end of that moment, he nodded, took the schematics and placed them in a drawer, before returning to the others - "Alright, I want everyone present here to help collect the necessary resources for this project - which will be of great importance for the future of Final Frontier.

I'll pass a list to each one in the future, but that was all for now." A nod of his head followed, before claps were clapped once - "Now, for your question Kran, I'm not worried about that - as I've installed a form to prevent this from happening.

That is, a way of deactivating and destroying the automatons if necessary." A smile spread, notably he didn't mind saying that in front of 1-A.

Because, that was kind of expected.

"Alright, we have the schematics.. Now we just have to gather the materials and get to work, but that's for another time." That said, he was now concluding that moment.
