The Machine Hunter - Part 1
By Veen Kidraad, Machinist Master, Year 1177
Oh what power machines have brought us! What wondrous power. Their machine sounds are music to my ears. It is a heavenly melody. Ever since I have come to the temple, I have known it was my place.
Behold! A wonder greater than any other machine. Built by my own hands with the knowledge they have taught me. He is Lamassu, the hunter, and he will hunt down our enemies and make us safe. Completely, and finally. By his strength we shall be free to leave this place without worry.
One team to build a machine of protection. One team to build a machine of hunting. But I did not need their help. They're dead now – they had an accident on the factory floor and were killed. But I worry not about those fools. Lamassu is complete.
Lamassu. My creation. See him and know. I have surpassed the masters and their null automatons.
