Folding his computer shut, the Centauri Official said "See you later," himself taking a closer look at the fungus out of sheer curiosity as the others left.

Zakroff incorporated the nonfunctional batteries into the drone's base. He [3] managed to attach an additional fusion reactor.
"Man, it's hardto believe people just through this stuff away..."[6] He attached a set of hydraulic legs he also found to the drone's computer system. The entire thing was... in fact, almost finished!
That was when he heard a voice in the distance.
"Hey, why didn't you stop him if he was rummaging around in our pile?""He had this giant turret thing...""Well, if all four of us can come in at the same time, I think we can take him out.""Right boss. Let's get him!"--------
The now-congealing
Caplus Orange, thinking unconventionally, planned to attempt communication with the gorves in their native tongues, using his AI to look up the words.
The Willem AI responded to his plan, speaking in a rather astounded tone,
"What a plan! Do you really think that will work? of course not!"The AI paused for about eight seconds.
"Wait, I have a plan! You can try the 'carrot on a stick' thing with them, but using electricity! Gorves have a sense for electricity... they sense lightning that occurs near ferrous asteroids in the Rigest Iron Asteroid Field from where they are naturally found...""Good idea!" responded Caplus, carrying out Willem's plan with precision. He created three electricballs, positioning each one in front of a gorv.

Somehow, defying any and all logic, Caplus managed to tame three gorves in an instant, using magic. Maybe magic really does mess with the laws of physics.
Caplus persuaded the gorves to lift him away from the coolant spill and set him down on solid ground.
Suddenly, two new gorves appeared. They began to circle around each other.
"Those look feral. Some gorves are like that, they get induced into a trance-like state whenever they see a big enoguh energy signature. You won't be able to tame those... I think."But luckily, Caplus spotted
Kayle and
Varron in the distance, both of them closely observing... the ground? They were coming toward the reactor. The two fellow wizards came to his aid upon sight of him. At this point Caplus warned them, shouting,
"Don't shoot the gorves... er... the ones that I control...? No, don't shoot... ugh! Don't shoot the ones with lighting around them!"Caplus subconsciously created electricballs to surround his gorves in a highly visible aura to which gorves are largely immune to, in order to keep his friends from shooting them.
However, he realized that while doing this, he couldn't seem to use his magic.

Jaffar and
Amatin made their way to the station, following the trail of tiny dots, up the launch loop, and, still noticing the trail--although each dot was now below a millimeter in diameter--followed it to... the
Griffin?
