  1.  
  2. [13:34] Morgwynn says, "Yes, let's speak shortly then."
  3. [13:34] Acantho says, "You both can talk here."
  4. [13:34] Acantho says, "If desired."
  5. [13:35] K'thul says, "It'll be just a quick thing, Doctor. No worries."
  6. [13:35] K'thul says, "I'll be back shortly."
  7. [13:36] Cain Daubney asks, "Acantho, are you going to build something?"
  8. [13:37] Cain Daubney says, "Good luck man."
  9. [13:46] While the others talked, he would go to work as always. His machine was much more advanced than the last time, from something simple it had already received mechanisms and other touches, developed by himself.
  10.  
  11. It was quite the sight.
  12.  
  13. But, they were far from over! And so, he then takes the orichalcum and mercury powder - which he then began to use upon the surface of the upper part of the structure, in the center where the engravings were.
  14.  
  15. As expected, time to create.
  16.  
  17. He made an infusion system, with also one for assembly - something that for when the machine started to assemble the entities, it could infuse it with mana - thus, activating. But that would be for future testing, for now the system was being worked upon.
  18.  
  19. Indeed.
  20.  
  21. "I'd love to have someone around here, but what do I have? You all, my creations that don't even have a brain yet." His gaze went back to the automatons as he sighed.
  22.  
  23. The smaller ones.. Only served to work, not really talk.
  24.  
  25. Regardless..
  26.  
  27. Runes were transcribed and crafted with extreme skill, eventually taking the form of a huge circle that covered the top surface of the magitech machinery. With that done, he headed for the inside, which would likely have a lot more to do.
  28. (Acantho)
  29. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  30.  
  31. [14:06] Cain steps back inside, after the weird conversation with the undead and sierenin. He stops in his tracks, looking towards Acanatho. He studies the machine that he is using, technology and craftwork that seemed alien to Cain. He was a warrior mainly, didn't know jack about runework or machining.
  32.  
  33. Eyebrow raised, he quietly steps over towards the table. Pulling over the chair slightly. So that he can sit and face Acantho as he continues his work.
  34. (Cain Daubney)
  35. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  36.  
  37. [14:11] Acantho could be seen crawling into an open area of the structure, which in comparasion to him was giant - yet there he was, among gears and wiring, while animunculis brought him orichalcum and mercury dust.
  38.  
  39. Which were used by him in this step.
  40.  
  41. Runes were now transcribed inside, mana influx runes, control ones - and others similar to the ones he used on golems, to give them intelligence! Since that machine would be something semi-alive, to be able to self-assemble too many automatons.
  42.  
  43. As expected.
  44.  
  45. Yet..
  46.  
  47. Upon noticing Cain's presence, he would wave from inside the structure, before saying, "Ah, you're back.
  48.  
  49. I'm grateful that you joined me, it's kind of monotonous not having anyone to talk to while I work." He said while his tools were used and he continued there.
  50.  
  51. Engravings done, circles completed - something that went through the entire interior of the structure, but mainly around the frame where thefuture core of the structure would be introduced.
  52.  
  53. Which still had to be done.
  54.  
  55. "This is Lifebringer, a magitech machinery I'm creating - to make my life easier when it comes to producing animunculi similar to 1-A, yet the ones produced will be the 2-A." He explained as he worked, a process.. Which was time consuming.
  56.  
  57. And it wouldn't end anytime soon.
  58. (Acantho)
  59. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  60.  
  61. [14:19] Cain rests his eyes on the structure that Acantho crawled into. A vast arraignment of wires and gears upon the inside that Cain could only see a glance of. He watched as the ancient drone like creations brought materials to him. A grin had appeared on Cain's face, out of amusement and perhaps even admiration.
  62.  
  63. "No worries. I can at least spend some time here considering what you said you would do for me."
  64.  
  65. A machine to help produce more of the creations that Cain had seen previously. "That giant living mech looking thing was yours right? Are you saying this machine will help make you more?"
  66. (Cain Daubney)
  67. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  68.  
  69. [14:26] Arty says, "Huh."
  70. [14:26] Arty wakes up.
  71. (Arty)
  72. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  73.  
  74. [14:31] "That's good enough for me and yes, 1-A was my creation - a more advanced model golem, with an enhanced awareness and combat ability.
  75.  
  76. The 2-A's will be similar versions, but more varied." Answers and explanations came as the work continued.
  77.  
  78. More and more runes adorned the interior of the structure, runes that would make it work when activated - runes, that would give life to what would give life to other beings. It was something quite unique and incredible, at least for Acantho.
  79.  
  80. His faith upon this project was great, that this could work and should leverage Final Frontier to a position of higher prestige among the other organizations of Meranthe.
  81.  
  82. As needed.
  83.  
  84. "These models shall be used to deal with threats, research and exploration, expeditions that is - they will be extensions of my will and do whatever is commanded." And so, beings totally loyal to their creator.
  85.  
  86. Which for others, could be scary.
  87.  
  88. "What are the other two doing out there? If they're fighting, we'd better step in - I don't want conflict in my town." At least, not while he was getting ready for these.
  89.  
  90. For quarrels among others could result in attacks on the village that could be blamed - as such, he couldn't allow that to happen. But for now, he was still focused on his project.
  91. (Acantho)
  92. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  93.  
  94. [14:37] Cain nodded his head, as he took in the information. Pondering the idea of having advanced golems that could serve to protect, defend, even carry out basic tasks. He wondered what point they would serve in the future.
  95.  
  96. "That's amazing, you could really get a lot done with these creations of yours. And uh.. the other two talked and sort of both agreed not to fight. I figure because they were in your town."
  97.  
  98. A fight that was avoided, but Cain didn't really care for the other two's presence. Originally all he cared about was getting Acantho to forge him a weapon. But the machines had intrigued him.
  99.  
  100. "What are you going to do with the old model, sell it?"
  101. (Cain Daubney)
  102. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  103.  
  104. [14:43] Waking up from his restless sleep, Arty gazed aroud as he felt a strange weight ontop of his body, it seemed that during his Work a great ammount of gear would now be ontop of the Rat's body.
  105.  
  106. Was it some type of blanket Acantho made for the rat? It was hard to say, but soon enought he would come out from inside of it, unoticed to Cain who must've have arrived not so long ago.
  107.  
  108. A yawn would follow as the rat took some seconds to adapt to the darkness of the giant room, soon turning his gaze towards the two who spoke not so far away. "Mmmm... I'm all sore."
  109.  
  110. Placing a hand inside of his cape, soon after he would get a small piece of paper in which he soon started to write upon before soon whistling, a small rat appearing from inside of Acantho's machine before soon going towards Arty.
  111.  
  112. "Take it." And quickly after? The rat would vanish to the darkness of the room.
  113.  
  114. "Morning... I guess it Morning, yo yo peeps."
  115. (Arty)
  116. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
  117.  
  118. [14:49] Probably the automatons had dumped the spare parts on Arty, thinking he was a garbage can - because Acantho had even forgotten he was there!
  119.  
  120. And now...
  121.  
  122. Notably, the scientist was even inside the machinery making the final adjustments - before leaving and then going into the robotic hands of that structure. On which he made the last runes upon, movement ones and more, that would make these work.
  123.  
  124. Perfect.
  125.  
  126. After several minutes, he came to a pause.. Looked at what he's done and then turned to Cain, "Exact and no, 1-A will be improved when possible, but for now he's in a state of inactivity apparently.
  127.  
  128. I have to check out, maybe change the core." He shrugged, going to sit down.
  129.  
  130. Time to rest, as the work is done.
  131.  
  132. Another step concluded.
  133.  
  134. "Now.. I'm going to rest, Arty bring me some coffee." A few snaps of the fingers would follow as he leaned back in his chair.
  135. (Acantho)
