Chapter 623: Like Minds
Walker and Gil had been receiving a tour of Greys' forging area. There were many models and plans up on the walls. The spider golem they had been told about was in pieces and there were mana smaller spider golems around it that were not active. Walker could tell that it would be able to take a piece of copper and carve it in to wire but he wasn't sure how it would do this. He just knew that it could because of the shapes and designs.
"You like the spider golems? I have a decent amount made for copper threads. They keep getting denied because they are too life like but that is what makes them better than other golems. They can catch those pesky cave rats that try and burrow in to the food stores. And when we clean up the webs we can use them for many other things." Grey had a good point.
"Wouldn't they still cause some trouble if they got in to anyone's homes? Why not find a way to restrict them so that they stay in one place all the time?' Gil wasn't sure why Grey wanted them to be so life like and follow a normal spider's actions.
"That would take away from the feeling they have. They would just be machines. That is pointless. I want a golem that you can't tell is different from you or me. Add a sentient weapon to control it and then you have a real life sentient golem able to think for itself and only needs mana to survive along with basic repairs, How could I not want that?"
"That would be pretty interesting. I know that the dwarf pursuit of sentient weapons and armors is the main goal of every crafter but making a sentient golem sounds like it would be able to stand next to you rather than just follow orders." Walker was very interested in this idea. He could get a lot more done with another thinking companion than one that could only follow an order and nothing else.
"Exactly. Imagine what that would be like. It wouldn't need food sp it could fight and build for as long as it needed. It could learn to repair itself and return to battle. Or it could store memories and advise on things properly based off of past events." Grey was becoming much more animated as he spoke of his dreams and goals. It was a look in to why he was so excentric of a crafter.
Grey scooped up some round balls the size of fists. "Here here, these are some of the better spider golems I made. They can be set to live in a certain area and can gather mana from the air to fuel themselves. I'm sure you will enjoy having them around. Just make sure you drop some blood on their cores so they recognize you as their master." Grey was glad to find that Walker understood his goals and wanted to share his brilliance.
Walker couldn't say now and took the three spider golems, when he stored them away he saw a glint in Greys' eyes. "That spatial magic you have can hold a lot right? Like, multiple golems?" Grey was beginning to think of the possibilities Walker had.
"I really haven't pushed it to the limit but I can't just empty things in and out easily. The process of storing things means I need to touch them. The process of taking things out means I need to actively think about it and touch them as well. So I can pull large items in and out but it isn't like I can just open my inventory and pour everything out. If I don't group things like coins together or bones then I would have to take every single one out separately." Walker had long realized this and always made it a habit to group items together.
"So taking a few more golems with you would be fine as long as you took them out separately. That is very interesting. I may have more for you later." Grey was thinking about giving Walker an army of golems but knew that it wouldn't work the way he envisioned. Walker would need to be stationary to slowly pull them all from his inventory. However, if Grey gave him a small number then they could be taken out when necessary.
"I see what he's getting at. You could carry around companions basically. If you have golems then they can jump in to battle in an instant making us even stronger as a group. Or you could transport them so they won't use any mana and can function longer where you bring them." Gil was seeing the world of possibility that Grey was seeing and wanted to add to it as well.
"You two know what I am talking about. Come meet some of the apprentices. They could learn a thing or two about how to think from you." Grey was ecstatic to have intuitive minds even if they were not golem builders.
Grey stopped fiddling with things on the table and stuffed a few parts and tools in to his belt before he rushed deeper in to the golem forging area. He led them to a larger open space where many younger dwarves were working on their own projects at work tables or at smaller forge fires.
When grey entered there was a visible tension that came through the room. They all knew that when he appeared they were most likely being sent for materials. Grey would often go to an apprentice with a slip of paper that would send them on a journey to a different kingdom or area to harvest or buy materials. It was a constant fear since it would mean their project would need to pause for them to return and they would lose more time to learn.
