Enemy Scout

After the massacre of the golem colony Daedalus felt sad but decided to start work on some defences. Seeing as it was likely the main entrance for the opposing continent Daedalus was planning to make traps.

He was also planning to set up a new golem colony here that would keep everything working and such. The only problem was that all of the golems that had survived the initial evacuation had advanced to a point where they worked and looked like living beings.

Realising this issue Daedalus made plans to salvage the corpses of a few of the golems and make a new leader class golem to rebuild the colony. This colony had stagnated due to the fact they couldn't create new golems so this would fix that problem.

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

With the plan made Daedalus waited for Ultraun to wake up so that they could do this together. It would take around a month to complete the basis of the defense plans but Daedalus was prepared to defend it until then.

If he was right the enemies returned to the colony every few weeks to check on it, so he would have to be prepared to stop them from creating more tunnels. With so much to do Daedalus knew that the initial golem leader would have to work fast.

A day later Ultraun had awoken and Daedalus immediately explained the plan. As they both knew what to do Daedalus began work on a super forge. A super forge as Daedalus had named it was very simply an extra large furnace that heated to much higher degrees.

With the new material to work with Daedalus had asked Ultraun to explore the properties and check its viability for uses. In this way a difficult month had begun, and Daedalus was preparing for the worst.

In the first week Daedalus created the super forge, however he realised that he couldn't really use all of his and Ultraun's time making each golem. So he made mechanical arms and such, powered by a Heart of the mountain.

This meant they could feed in materials and the arms would follow the blueprint as exactly as possible. Daedalus himself felt quite impressed and decided to refine this further down the road.

This was finished half way through the second week. Ultraun had also made a discovery, the metal that was used expelled energy in a shield like way, but it was actually incredibly soft. He had discovered this when he used energy to cover his hands before touching it. This discovery also let them know how lucky they where to be able to pull he souls out directly.

Then the first enemy scout appeared. When they arrived they had immediately yelled "Where is my greetings, lowly machines!"

Ultraun was of course angered but they had to capture this person. This proved to be easy as it seemed that hey just wanted a weakling to do the check on their outpost.

After that Daedalus examined the enemy and found he couldn't place what race they where. Realising this Daedalus decided to just ask the prisoner. Luckily the super forge was already starting to make the leader class golem so he had time to worry about the enemy.
