I am taking a precautionary health potion and am getting two healing powers used on me. I also trigger [Immortality] and [Giant Form of the Ancestors]. I will also stop eating with the others for the next few days.
And that means that Stjepan will be doing the rituals for the awakening stones. That means that I can at least meditate in peace and construct a new servant. I think it will profit from the local conditions.

OL: I did that trip in vain.
DT: Yes.
RP: At least you got around puking your guts out due to long distance mass teleportation.
OL: I have a distant cousin with teleport power. He teleported family members a few times to get used to it. It will get better and you never lose that entirely.
DT: You expect us to repeat the experience?
OL: Sure. Would you leave an escort of adventurers behind if you have sick children to protect?
DT: They cannot be sure that we are adventurers.
RP: If we wanted to harm them, we would have by now.
DT: As long as he doesn’t start charging for it, I’ll take it over walking.
OL: That reminds me, do you recognise their essences? I got a full blast of the scorpion man’s aura. I think I got one of them.
RP: The dragon woman has Onslaught. And one of her essences is Fire.
DT: She also has Magic. The bat wing woman has Shield. So what did you find, spit out?
OL: We had a visitor from Cyrion last month. Silver rank. He was about refounding a reformed Church of Purity, after, well, you know … . Anyway he had one of those big bird confluences. An aura that strong even I noticed clearly. One of his essences was Vast.
Their heads turn as if on command.
OL: This is a feeling of disgust and misery I felt only once.
DT: They ranked somebody up. Why do you do that now and not before you depart? These people just make no sense.
RP: We should walk over and you surely have some Crystal Wash.
OL: I love to have it ready just in case. So much that I don’t just hand it out. Besides that stuff isn’t free.
RP: Do you really want to sit down for breakfast at the same table as someone who hasn’t had Crystal Wash after ranking up?
Olutha uses an essence power that lets her do a short sprint at high speed.

KN: You are doing me first, because you hope that I will develop medically useful powers, right?
L: Right. Just relax, Stjepan knows this ritual and this is your second essence.
KN: Right.
The ritual itself proceeds flawlessly.
Karolína falls on her knees and almost knocks herself out as her hands cover her eyes.
KN: What is that?
S: What are you seeing?
L: She cannot understand you. Well, maybe that was simple enough.
L: What are you seeing?
KN: Impossible colours.
She opens her eyes again.
KN: This vehicle. It glows. Your clothing. He conjured it, right.
L: That is embarrassing. But my tail and the wings get in the way. Nothing conventional fits me anymore. The belt is original, though.
KN: I can see that he makes a very tight shirt.
L: He said that it comes out that way if you uses his power with me as a mould.
KN: Men.
S: Do your eyes still hurt?
KN: Were you asking about my eyes? Your friend successfully distracted me. I think I can see magical energy or forces and this vehicle is extremely magical.
L: All is well. She can see magic. And she says that this car is full of magic.
KN: I think I am ready for the next essence. And after that you say I need to grab the next cube and immediately leave this car.
L: Yes, that is very important. In fact lets get outside so that you can change into the conjured stuff. Stjepan needs room to work.
L: We are going to get her changed into the stuff to be thrown away.
And indeed the stuff conjured for her is much less tight.
L: I am going to tweak his antennae.
KN: Are they sensitive?
Lidija blushes. That sort of turns her purple.
L: Yes.
----------------------------------------
I am using the body as is of course and will modify three of the arms, but go for something totally new for the fourth arm. The main effort will go into a new base plate. I got the resources from the vault and looting the lizard monsters.
May I introduce to you Dalek#4 – Upgraded Heavy
He won’t fly fully free, but his hover will be impressive. And I hope to get some bang out of him.

S: We are ready. This will be interesting. Shall I do yours while the lady recovers.
L: Yes. That’s optimal use of our time.
L: He is ready. Step inside, please.
Karolína is familiar with procedures that will not allow a deviation from procedures. That does not make it pleasant, though
S: When shall I do mommy’s stone.
L: How about between his first and second stones.? I can take over the watch after I am done.
