>>5448388>>5448390>Steel Weaver moves to 16,10>Major Action (DI): Claim 14.10, 15.10, 16.10, and 17.9The Steel Weaver strides through the grasslands, all manner of sensors eagerly gathering as much data as possible, all while the unrecognized protocol which seems to communicate to the EBWOs what places are or aren't safe spreads with reckless abandon.
>Major Action (DI) [Machines Domain]: Develop the spinning wheel (improved weaving)Taking a moment to rest, the steel weaver looks across its newly claimed territory, and at the EBWOs already investigating the strange new resources it offers. One of them starts teasing apart the fibers of a cotton plan with its bare hands, an act which strikes the Steel Weaver as rather inefficient.
Inefficient. Inefficient inefficient INEFFICIENT! The knowledge that there exists a better way of accomplishing this task provokes the closest thing a robot can have to a visceral reaction, and from the morass of broken code and corrupted data that lurks beneath its consciousness a series of files unexpectedly emerge. The packets of data are discarded almost as soon as they arrive, until only one remains. Back at Northwood, EBWOS stop what they're doing and get to work on The Machine. The First Machine, that shall serve as the herald for many more yet to come...
The abrupt commotion, of course, draws a great many curious gazes from the misty lands further north.
