Phillip is in the temple of order, sketching out designs. They haven’t slept for at least a few days.
A medium sized black cat is watching Herionidus.
Some Godless Ones walk into the castle.
Cogintius approaches. "Phillip? You look like you heavily need a rest. How long have you been staying up?"
Herionidus turns to the cat. “Oh hi little fella,” he tries to pet the cat.
Tarcza watches them enter from a balcony. “Hello, mortals.” It says in a calm and collected voice.
”only a bit, I think.”
The hand phases through. The cat now appears to be several feet away.
"Greetings, Tarcza." One of the cultists says, the leader of the group sent. "As you may know, the Godless Ones are organizing and our plans will be executed soon enough. Right now, we have plans to attack Cogintius's city. We wanted to ask you if you wish to lead the troops."
"More like you've only been sleeping a bit. I can see the bags under your eyes. You really should rest some."
“What are you?” He asks, now casting speak with animals.
”what purpose does an attack on the city serve?”
”I’m sure I’ll be fine… besides, I’m almost done. Just need to see if that mechanics guy, the one who’s building a machine, if he can figure out some stuff for me…”
*Sorry had to take a shower*
'Get out of my head, foul god.' the voice sounds cruel, and (as of now) amused.
"Multiple reasons. It'll show we're powerful, meaning more mortals join us, and we're not mainly aiming for the mortals themselves, mainly the buildings, especially the ones dedicated to worship. If we knock out the T.O.M that'll be especially devastating, with it being Cog's main temple and all."
"Ok, but after you consult the machine god you really, really should sleep."
“Now that’s no way to talk to someone. Who are you?”
”hmm… what is your plan for attacking the city?”
”fine, i guess…” he goes back to sketching… something. Some sort of building. And a really big one.
'You don't need to know, why should I tell you?'
"First we need to destroy the city's magic defenses. We'll get a rogue to infiltrate the T.O.M and destroy the focus for the wards. Then, we send in our units. The mortals will probably be running away from the scene in fear, which is good since we don't want to get them caught in the crossfire."
"What is that? It's huge."
“Because i asked. Why can’t I know?”
”interesting… how large is your army?”
”it’s something that hopefully will help humans. It will hopefully be able to figure out all of our problems and help us create things. If I can successfully build it, then the lives of humans could be improved with better methods for farming, cleaning, and other things. It would need a lot of materials though…”
(I mean it doesn't have one as of now lol) 'And why would I share my name with a potential enemy?' The light shimmers and it seems to be a few feet away again.
"Pretty large. Huge portion of the fighters of the G.O, small army of undead soldiers, and of course the dragon..."
"How would it do what you say it does, out of curiosity? And theoretically I could just wave my hand and at least make part of it."
“Enemy? Why would i hurt you?” he continues following them.
”Dragon?”
”that would be extremely helpful, if you could do that! Even just supply us with the materials, we could do the rest. And about how it works… it can learn. Just like we can. But faster.”
'The people I serve view you as a potential threat, but also a potential ally. Your choice.'
"Yes, Faltros-- demon guy, he's one of our patrons-- made a big monster called a dragon. It's red, scaly, breathes fire, terrifying!"
"It's sentient?"
*Just warning I gotta get off any second now*
“Well, who do you serve?”
“Hm. Is there just one or multiple of them?”
”it is able to learn and experiment, but I don’t know if that would qualify as thinking. It is supposed to work by taking information and then figuring out exactly how that works, and how it can be used.”
'The Godless Ones.'
"He could make more, theoretically. But right now there is only one."
"An intelligence, that is artificial? Interesting..."
*Gtg now*

Hello! I am a perfectly sane gibberer. Hi! :D
Locations are dead, the Temple of Potassium has fallen but its ideals live on
Macchino sits by his work. The torso is mostly complete, and now he's working on the head, fiddling with a variety of crystals and bits of polished metal.
Phillip the inventor approaches him. He’s a short human with round glasses and black hair.
”excuse me, I’ve heard that you are quite the skilled… mechanic?”
"Indeed I am, for I am Macchino, God of Invention. What do you seek, mortal?"
“I need help figuring out how exactly I should make a machine work… I have the basic layout and some stuff figured out, but it’s incomplete and I don’t have enough knowledge of how the world works to do it by myself.” He hands them blueprints of an enormous building, hundreds of stories tall, with complex machinery and twisting hallways and rooms. Some parts are partially blank, and there are notes saying what they are suppose to do but how they don’t know how to do it. It seems like what it’s trying to do is possible, just very complex. It seems to be some sort of enormous calculator.

“The godless ones? Aren’t they trying to attack Cogintius’ city?”
”ah. A living weapon, based on your description.”
”not just artificial, but a faster thinker than us. It could help us build new machines and structures.”
”What do you think we should do, brother? I am afraid they will harm too many humans.”
"I... agree with your... assessment, brother. We must... reign them in..."
“they mentioned that they have a… a dragon. Fire breathing, scaled monster. It’s a weapon… maybe we could destroy it?”
"That would be... unwise... but we... don't seem to have... many other.... options...."
“We could contact the city and help defend it… I believe it’s ruled by the god of order, Cogintius. If they know what is against them, it could help them defend.”
