X-2's Log. Date: Unknown. Very Cold. Assumed to be winter.

It has been a long, LONG time since I have last written in this book, but I'm back, at least. After I finished the roadwork between the Hub and our outpost, I sallied into town expecting a warm welcome. I was not disappointed, as even OV came out to meet me, even though he still had many pressing orders. But, after some partying (I don't know how we can even do that, what with being machines and all) I was taken aside by one of the members of the Council. He, (Or she, I can't really remember. Not like it matters.) told me that there was great need to expand our civilization. I asked why and all I got in return was "Just in case".  It made no sense to me, but I wen't along with it because it was, well, the council. It's not like I could've fought all of 'em, even though I AM a giant. They'd swarm me and saw my legs off.

Anyway, I managed to gather around fifty Pringers to join me, and we set off westward. That was promptly halted when we encountered this strange thing called... a sea, I think. I dunno. Oh yeah, I forgot to report on the Hub's prosperity for future, uh, notes. There's now TWO-HUNDRED Pringers there, not counting the ones I took with me. I was , quite frankly, amazed by this as when I left it, there were only a hundred or so.

Anyway, I've been told that the only way we could cross this sea is if we build a boat. I have no idea what that is either, but we've been steadily working on a large one. It's almost finished now, and we've been reinforcing it so that it could support us. All that wood would have just shattered under our combined weights. It should only take another couple months until we finish it.

Anyway, this is Pringer X-2, signing off.

OOC: Missed my last turn for RL reasons, going to make it now. Oh and Armok, sorry about that. I presume i was too settled with the fact that business with irananeleni or whatever his name was, was settled. So i forgot about it. Ill try to make repercussions now.

Last turns happenings.

Hrafn was marching on the head of the small army of giants, surveying the area for potential targets. Finally, after weeks of marching, he sighted the palisade walls of Hallr across the plains. He lifted his hand with a quick move and halted the army.
"MEN! HALLR IS ON THE SIGHT, AND IF YOU FAT FOOLS DONT GET THERE IN THREE DAYS, I AM PERSONALLY GOING TO EXECUTE TWENTY RANDOMLY CHOSEN BASTARDS!"
A wave of foot shifting ran through the army and everyone adjusted their equipment into better positions. Hrafn was known to keep his word. There were already several grim trophies hanging from his castle walls.
"NOW GET TO MOVING YOU SONS OF WHORES!"
The army moved off in halfrun, and Hrafn stayed behind with his bodyguard.
He turned to the silent, masked giants behind him.
"Allright then, the sergeant knows my orders and knows what to do when they arrive at Hallr. We're going to go to that town called lilacebela... I want to see my enemies before the true assault. And we are going to run too"
The bodyguard thumped their plated fists to their chestplate, a loud bang ensued. Perfectly at the sametime and without a word.
Hrafn smiled and motioned them to follow.

¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤

Hjolf lifted his brows a bit at the offer from the vulpinan.
"So... in exchange for our non-aggressiveness we are to send mercenaries for your medicines? Thats two to one to me, and im not sure if that deal is entirely fair. Homever, i might be willing to accept it if the amount of wood and food was changed to weight two thirds of the weight of the iron"
Hjolf finally glanced at the vulpinan in bed.
"May i homever inquire you why i am brought to the apparent house of death of this town... and what has happened to this one?"
Hjolf took a deep inhale, enjoying it with his whole heart, even more glad about it due to the deathbeds around him.

¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤

Three days later.

The army had arrived to Hallr, and was now setting up tents and drinking up drunk. The wives of the outpost had hard time those days, since an army desiring pass times and drink is a tough guest.
The sergeant, currently in command of the army, was discussing the leader of the outpost about any events that had come to pass lately. He was rather surprised by the unbelievably expensive diamond socketed on the hilt of his sword.
"Where'd you get that from?"
"Huh? Oh this... you see, you do know the fireplace we have in the middle of the square yes? Well you then also know we fuel it by this strange flaming being we've trapped in. Well this thing apparently had diamonds and all sorts of expensive metals with him, which we found out when he threw this diamond here on the face of that poor Ferrun. After that, and a small fight... We threatened to fill the fireplace with water if the thing wouldnt handover all the other expensives with it... And we're quite rich now!"
The sergeant stood there, jealous about the sword and was already thinking how he could get it, and hopefully all the other riches.
"Well... that was interesting... I'll see you if i need something"

¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤-¤

OOC: summary is, my army split, the normal troops went to Hallr with forced march and Hrafn passed it with forced march.
Good dealings with Hjolf may change the whole direction of things.

((Sorry, no RP today... I got a terrible headache from studying chemistry for 4 hours, and I'm barely able to understand what the others are writting because of the headache...)

============================================================================

Non Rp stuff:
Plans are made for road building, each settlement starts building roads to the nearest settlements around them. I'm not going to specify all the workers and their numbers  because it will be hard to track it all, so lets just say workers come and go from the settlements to work on the roads. Beacuse of the road building, all golems are too busy to make new golems, so no population growth for 2 turns, starting next turn. All roads will be done in 2 turns.

((Also, game rule question: can we move diagonally on roads and also build roads diagonnaly?))

The flashing message is still being sent, but only at night, because the sun is too bright during the day to be seen. It is always 55 green flashes, followed by messages of greetings and well-wishing and such, in the golem special morse code consisting of a variety colors and flash lengths. Armok, I don't know how you are going to decipher it, I don't think its even possible to decipher it withought another golem helping you, and the golems living in Alchemia know that, so they are planning to dig a tunnel from the Nova outpost directly under the peack were the tower is, and they are also planning to build a telescope using their new-found glassmaking technology to see who is sending the messages. But all this will have to wait 2 turns, since the roads are a priority to be able to move all the workmen and resources needed.
Maybe you can find a way to facilitate communication in a shorter time, but I have no idea how.

============================================================================

Settlements:
Alchemia: 69
(the one in middle of desert, btw its on a low hill tile not desert tile)
- 1 Large Steel Golem master miner (Ferrum Animus, Chief of Diggers)
- 1 Glass Golem reinforced with bands of Steel, master glassmaker (Abro Vas, Prince of Prisms)
- 11 Iron Golem miners
- 23 Clay Golems
- 18 Copper Golem engineers
- 15 Glass Golems reinforced with bands of bronze, glassmakers

Terra: 79
(the one west of desert)
- 20 Iron Golem miners
- 29 Clay Golems
- 15 Copper Golem engineers
- 15 Bauxite Golem smiths

Altus Tumulosus: 40
(settlement NE of Terra)
- 10 Iron Golem miners
- 20 Clay Golems
- 10 Copper Golem engineers

Eterna: 24
(east of desert)
- 3 Iron Golem miners
- 10 Clay Golems
- 11 Copper Golem engineers

Nova: 15
(SE of desert)
- 1 Platinum Golem decorated with bands of Gold and implanted with a Star Ruby in hist chest and inscribed with many glowing runes throughout his body (Orion Primus, Guardian of the Seals of the Ancients, Hero)
- 7 Iron Golem miners
- 3 Clay Golems
- 4 Copper Golem engineers

OOC: The cool thing that could happen, is that the !!elves!! and golems find out they just hate each other and a war would start. Just to get more excitement here hmm? Of course, more elaborate reasons would be needed... But since both !!elves!! and golems are quite high tech, such war would be full of the awesome you seek no?

Rugkadest                  : NW side of W Lake      : Roshanian : Town

-Rugkadest-

"Give me the Ironsaw we open the chest of that thing."
"And you are sure we should make it here?"
"Do you see another way? This thing weights a Ton or maybe two."
"Right. But it gives me an unpleasent feeling opening it here between its friends."
"I see now lets open that thing Aris."

3 Hours later.

"Shit this was quit some work."
"Im exhausted too Aris but i want to see the inner workings of this Monster."
"Ok then lets take the plate away and let me have a break."

With a loud ringing sound the sawed out breastplate of the golem slammed on the ground.

"Hmm quite Interesting."
"What? I cant see any special features in the Construction. Actually i cant see how it should have worked."
"But i see! They had used runes to move that thing."
"Runes?"
"Yeah an active enchantment bound to a mundane Symbol. Very effective because its lasts a long time an can serve multiple purposes at once. For our projects mostly useless because we can not change the Flow of Magic anymore. Not by casting spells or something like that since the last of our shamans has died in the old world."
"But you know a way?"
"Yeah there is a way. Its the way of Technologie. We change the flow of Magic by bending it by Crystalomatie, Metallurgie and Glyphs."
"Whats a Glyph? And what will you do with Crystalls and Metal?"
"Whats Glyph? The God Ternion has given us the Knowledge of the Glyphs in the old world. Well some Glyphs are a little bit like gears, some like axles, some like Springs etc. A set of Glyphs is not containing the entire enchantment it only directs the Flow of Magic like a Magican or Sorcerer does in his Mind. A Rune on the other hand is most times only a Nail which holds an enchantment on the object. There are two groups of Glyphs. At first the Main Glyphs, our Gears, Axles and springs. The other Group is the Modificator Group which changes the way how a Main-Glyph works. A Modificator has to be attached to the Main-glyph to do something."
"And what about the Crystals and the metals?"
"A crystal and Gems have theyr own form of Glyphs because of theyr Structure and chemical composition. A Ruby for example attached to the right glyphs can raise the temperature. A Saphire on the other hand attached to the same Glyphs would cool down. Unfortunatly you have to cut the Stone in the right form to have it work but a Ruby works much better when a Glyph of temperature with an added Fireglyph. To the metals. Metal is the Material we make our Glyphs from because it conducts magical energy. Some Metals are Better some are worser for this.
Silver is a pretty good conductor but most times we will use cooper and its alloys. The worst conductor is Gold because it mostly blocks the flow of magic. Gold can be useful too, especially in the Glyphs that are attached to your power source. Sometimes you want to heathen your quarters and not melt the table."

As they spoke more and more gears and pieces of metal ripped from the dead Golem piled up on the ground.

"Now, Aris, i can see what happened to this Golems"
"And what happened?"
"Many Parts are burnt out or have rusted very fast. This was done by the Magic energy so it would be very energyintansive to restore the Metals. Its unusual to use very complex Enchantments on Mundande gears because you have to repair and replace parts over the time but its works better as an full program of glyphs if you are building a Machine that is controlled by a sentient Soul."
"It had a Soul and was sentient?"
"Yeah here catch it."
"Huh ... if you throw something please aim ok?"
"Ok. But anyway that Gem was the Golems Brain."
"This tiny thing?"
"Why not? A miner has not to be Genius. I think who ever has build that creature has done it for only one task. Mining."

10 weeks later (now turn 26).

"Aris ..." shouted Ter "... Do we have another axle with Rune number 45a?"
"45a? Let me take a look in the stockpile .... No there not another 45a on an axle."
"Well then this was the last Bird"
"You are done?"
"Yes i am."
"How many have we now?"
"One dozen."
"One dozen is not too much."
"I know but we can build some new birds with Glyphs but by adjucating you and working on the new frames and the right Glyphs i think we cant build them in the next 6 Months."
"And there is no way we can copy this runes?"
"No i couldnt find a way. Maybe if i know the right chant and ingredients but only with rune its impossible."
"Twelve Birds then. They have to last until Summer."
"They will."
-------------------------------------------------------------------
ooc: The discibtion Ter gives to Glyphs and runes are relying on his knowledge of Runes of the old world. The runes of the Golems or the Telash could work in another way. Anyway Ter has fathomed out what the Golemrunes do and had build 12 Mansized Hawk shaped Birds from the parts and Corpses found in the ruins. This birds were transported to karatomca with the next oretransport.

((Heph, I never quite thought on how runes work exactly, so I figure I'll stick to yours, its simple and yet very modifiable. Thus, runes nail down enchantments while glyphs can modify and shape them. Also, like you said, gems and metals act like specific glyphs (as well as alchemy). The golems only know of runes, and use gems and metals exclusively instead of glyphs, so if a specific material is not available to act as the enchantment shaper, they know not of a way to replace it by glyphs. I don't know how other players describe their runes, but I liked this way  

And Nhiphanter, I don't know about what might happen, but the Golems are normally a pacific race, but they can be quite picky with what they want. I am not inclined to start a war, so it's all up to Armok to decide wether his !!elves!! hate golems or not, but I don't see why they would...))

[Akroma]

((well, the history of this world includes a gigantic war a long time ago, between ultra-tech humans and all other races. Should the "elves" or any other civ mis-identify your golems as the ones the humans used, your golems might not even have the time to explain themselves))

[Poltifar]

((Ok... Maybe I should make some huge banners with "We come in peace!" written on them... Nah, misunderstandings could make really nice stories. And besides, I don't care if every race in the world joins forces to beat the Golems to a pulp, I'm here for some RP fun   (but that doesn't mean you HAVE to beat me into a pulp...))

Edit::: Actually, the Golems could actually have been the ones the humans used! They forgot all about their former life other than that they ounce served a big Empire and that something caused that empire to be destroyed... and also they ARE human shaped...

This could turn out a complicated story, with all races fearing that the golems might want to start a war again, while the golems now free from their former masters are pacific and only want to live in peace...

As i said before the supertech Humans are the history of another world where my Roshani are from. The roshani had fled to this world some (thousand) years ago.
I dont interfere to much with the History because i dont know what Jamini maybe had planned for it.

But there are some stories of the other races that are similar so nothing changed.

[Nhiphanter]

OOC: Well, my giants have never known supertech humans and never will, if this doesnt go into some space age period, which i would find outright silly...

edit: i dont even understand where all this talk about supertech humans as the ultimate evil or something came from except that they are part of ROSHANIANS history.

[Akroma]

((I didn't state it precisely, but the Tengu were driven off their homeland and wandered the desert for many years, by the humans. They don't even know the war is over))

[Jamini]

Raom's smile faded as a serious look overcame his face, his left handpaw waving in dismissal. "House of death my friend, If I have leave to call you that, I suppose that name is as good as any if somewhat inaccurate. A far better description of it would be a house of healing, and I came here to show you two things."

The old leader reached down, a knife appearing in his hand so quickly it seemed like magic,and cut one the edge of the bandage with a deft motion. Carefully he removed the cloth to reveal the injury beneath. A pungent armoa of many powerful herbs immediatly rose as the old vulpinan waved across the long gash in the arm, but the wound itself was clean and unbloodied. With a practiced eye he pointed out each herb in turn, "Bloodstauch to contract the blood vessals, shocksooth to numb the shock of recent injurty with blissful unconsiousness, illward to fight off infection, and numbweed to nearly remove the pain when he does wake. Four basic herbs that anyone with only a few days of training could use, and another half-dozen I don't totally recognize, some for bone-setting I think. This vulpinan was injured this morning. This gash the result of a blow that was nearly enough to break his the bone and caused him to lose nearly a pint of blood. However, by this time tomorrow the wound will be well enough for him to fight cautiously. In two days he will be back in shape for full combat. This is an example of vulpinan medicine." With a deft motion Raom took a handful of string from nearby and retied the bandage before leading Hjolf to the next bed, when a second vulpinan was shivering violently in his sleep.

With a sad look Raom watched as the young one cried out, his hand flying upward toward the sky. His leg wrapped in a smaller bandage. "And this one is one of our archers. Four days ago while hunting he was shot by one of his companions by accident while they were hunting. The injury was not greivious, but the arrow had a poisoned tip. One that paralyzes it's target for days afterword" Turning around towards Hjolf, Raom shook his head. "And that is the second thing I must warn you about. A single scratch by one of our arrows, no matter how small, has been known to take down large game. Paralysis, muscle weakness, hallucinagens, sleep posions, and many far more deadly effects. We know how to make them, many from very common plants and animals, and in our forests or on the river we know how to hide and fight very effectively. I am not saying that we would win in a conflict, but the battle would be very bloody for your kind indeed if they forced it upon us."

Dimissing his serious look, Raom's grin replied as he began to lead Hjolf out of the hospital and into the sunlight of the late day. "Two-thirds weight I can agree too, as long as my people cut the wood. Have no fear, we will cut to your specifications, it is simply that we despise waste. The forest is our home, after all, and we would like to keep it that way."

[Akroma]

((Did I say nothing happens ? Well, not entirely true. A group of 5 Tengu, 1 diplomat, 1 merchant, 1 priest (skilled in basic Tengu magic) and two guards. Embarks northwards))

[Nhiphanter]

Hjolf smiled at the last words from Raom, since a trade deal would give some protection to this town from the Storm giants. Eventhough they had those ghastly poisons, Hjolf knew that the iron of a chainmail or the thick wood of round shield couldnt be poisoned.
"Well my friend, i think its a deal, and a deal then! I will try to get back to my own people to..." a small hesitation passed in his face "inform my lord... of this most joyful event, ergo we get into trade deals, not wars with you"
Hjolf thumped his fist into his chest loudly.
