That's a very good idea. We don't need you to do everything, Jericho. We have other people on our side. Relax, the weight of the world is not on your shoulders. It's on everyone's. Okay that doesn't sound reassuring but trust me, things will work out fine in the end, we're going to win this.

Damn Eliraz, that's not a bad plan, we didn't really want to ask you directly since we figured you might be a bit gun shy after just your whole shadow deal but if you want to help we wont turn you down.

Oh and Jericho, it's more on our heads then yours if the world should take a turn for the worst, you should relax a bit you've earned it.

Sorry Jericho. Sometimes we forget how hard this stuff can be on you guys. It's a lot easier looking down than living it, you know?

Oooh you have song birds here that can sing on command? That's so cool.

But yeah, Jericho go ahead and rest. I guess we're more fond of you because you're our first host, but we can sometimes push our hosts a bit to hard because we believe they are able to withstand it all.

It made its own body and has simply been ignoring the guards' attempts to destroy it? The enemy's golem army is going to be a big problem.

Tell it that Jericho is relaxing in the bath right now, and you can handle whatever talking it needs to do.

They're afraid of you because their meat sticks don't work on you. They fear what they can't control.

...can you just steal his body? Or his head off his body?

Well we can't do anything to you anyways. I mean the furthest we've done is given Jericho a tiny shield to defend himself with.

Also apparently it wants to flay Jericho, can your shadow powers somehow disable it?

Don't worry, worst we can do to you is suggestion strange things. Like ask how you feel about polyamorous relationships or suggest you should hook up with your sister. More annoying than harmful, unlike your previous player.

Think there's anyway to get this golem to speak english? It's barely comprehensible.

His head seems to be firmly affixed to his body… and stealing his body wouldn’t really accomplish much. Having an angry golem in your pocket is hardly the most commendable situation.

Artemis told joke to the inferior Eliraz. Artemis thinks Eliraz is senseless for believing Artemis. Artemis only wishes to voice with Jericho.

Artemis should stop joking?
Yes… and stop insulting everyone. Being called inferior isn’t nice, you know.
Artemis only voicing truth. Artemis is superior in every way compared to Eliraz. Artemis is perfect.
You aren’t superior in humility and manners, it seems.

You’re called Artemis and standing right in front of me.
…Therefor Artemis is not… Artemis? Not standing here? Artemis not Artemis not standing here not Artemis… therefor… therefor Artemis not… standing?
…err… I think I broke him…
…Artemis is not superior? Why? Artemis wonders why isn’t Artemis superior to Eliraz? Eliraz made of weak material, Artemis is made of strong material. Why Artemis inferior?

Insert Superior inferior complex_

Don't worry about it, we'll solve those problems later.

Explain to Artemis that there is more than just physical power to account for when assessing when one or another thing is superior.

Step back a bit, just to make sure you are not within 'superior' Golem grip distance.

Give Artemis a show of your shadow magic by asking if it's superior, can it do this, then "shadow-port" over to the bookshelf through Artemis. Then pick a dictionary off the shelf, saying Artemis' grasp of language and grammar is inferior to yours, then hand it the book and ask it to compare the contents to its memories.

Now take a philosophical approach: Superiority and inferiority is situational, not absolute. That which is superior under one situation would be inferior in another, and vice versa. There is nothing that is absolutely superior to everything else, nor anything that's absolutely inferior to everything else.

Oh, and if golems are so superior to "flesh bags" why aren't the golems still around and the "squishy ones" long dead? Why are there so few golems still active, while the fleshy species continue on? That implies the golems had a fatal flaw; An "inferiority," if you will.

Where'd Artemis get the materials for a new body from? And what's that blue thing across its torso?

>>552762
Tell him that not being superior doesn't mean he's inferior. His body is definitely stronger. However, there are things you can do that he cannot. For instance, you can more easily understand social things. Also, you can essentially turn invisible and steal things that should be impossible to steal.

If things go wrong, could you steal his energy core to deactivate him?

Alright, nothing is always superior or always inferior thanks to those terms not having any true absolutes. Instead something can be better then something else for a certain situation. For example, you seem stronger than me, but I’m quite clearly more agile.

He seems to be learning quickly. Anyway, we wanted to know how golems were made, and how we could fight off enemy golems. Do they have an "off" switch somewhere?

Ask it about when it was created, it's creators, and generally what it can remember as far back as it can.

Also ask about Golem Creation, Golem Destruction.

>>552781
...Explain that things can have multiple meanings, and in this case you meant that there was no need for thanks.

First, is that 'blue thingy' a keystone?
Second, did the stone he 'found' belong to anyone or anything important, such as a load-bearing column or bathroom wall?
Third, explain that if he tells whatever he needs to tell to tell to Jericho to you, you will tell Jericho what he said when you see him. He thinks overly-literally, so just explain yourself as plainly as you can.

Let Ilbir ask about Golem anatomy and function; he would be in a better position to understand and use any information Artemis gives than you are right now.

Asking about golems seems to be the obvious place to start. What materials are required to make one, from one of Artemis' complexity or above on down to the very simplest. Whether only clay or stone can be used. How the type and quality of the clay and stone effect its attributes. What determines who the golem will take orders from. What they're exceptionally resistant from. What can effectively damage one.

One theory I have to destroy a golem would be to heat it to a high temperature, followed by rapidly cooling it from the outside in. I think that'll shatter a clay golem, though a stone one may stand up better depending on the type of stone used.

Ask how and when the key stone recovered from near the location Artemis was recovered from came to be there. Perhaps Esiros left it there, though if he did I don't know how.

"Make ourselves beautiful?" What? Play dress-up? Well, it does look like a nude lizard statue, so putting some clothes on it for modesty's sake is sensible. Eliraz, you got anything in your wardrobe you wouldn't mind being lost, damaged, or destroyed? Oh! You're a painter, right? You feel like painting a golem? It's just like painting a statue.

Also, referring to Artemis by its name is going to get tiresome, and using "it" gets confusing. Lets settle on a gender pronoun. What gender does Artemis look and sound most like? Can it change its appearance and voice? ...Is there an appearance and voice you'd prefer it take, Eliraz?

so we basically got a blank slate here that's learning as he goes. Good to know, but yeah ask if he knows how golems are created and if there are different types of golems. If we're going to have to fight these damn things at some point might as well get learning now.

She's kinda cute like that when she's happy.

I am surprised though that she can actually feel things, she felt sad and terror at the thought of being destroyed...Or well, even if you just don't like her anymore.

But now we know these golems aren't 'true' golems of the past, but a new sort fashioned through their magics. Though can you get her to Clarify on what she means by 'Liquid Stone?"

Also I think I know what Life Essence means, it might mean that a 'life' was taken to make them, or maybe sucked out from a few people and they stayed alive, who knows at this point.

>liquid stone cheat golem will break
Oh, okay. Thank you.

>>552866
Oh thank god they aren't unstoppable like Artemis. Ask... her? if she can fight, and/or if she knows if she can help activate more real golems. Ilbir wanted to study her...

Also jeez I can't believe this golem is hitting on you so much. I'm not sure that's entirely accidental. I guess you could broach the subject of if she is asexual or not. It would make sense if she was, and that'd probably be reassuring for you.

>Then I am Female. Maximum pleasure can be achieved trough opposite genders.
Why opposite genders?

>…I would say male.
Speaking of which, didn't you used to present as a girl when you were little? What's the story with that? Something the shadow made you do? Parental expectations, or just change your mind when puberty hit?

I think she's taking a liking to you.

But does she mean ice when she said liquid stone? also ask her if she knows more about these knockoff golems.

Well, yes, but there are many things that could be considered fun.

..Ice golems sounds like a really, really bad idea in a Desert, not to mention against a nation whose natural casting magic is fire.

Can she read? It might be worthwhile to let her read books to study a bit in her downtime. It worked well with Jericho afterall.

...maybe you should keep her away from your more... intimate books, unless it gives her ideas.

Also what skills does she have, we know she's strong, a quick study, and really tough. What else can she do though?

You know I honestly have no idea if opposite genders have more nonsexual fun with eachother or not.

Anyway, I think we're nearly at the end of our questions for her. Shall we go to our next stop?

>>552898
She could come with us if she wants, I suppose.

No, all fun isn't the same fun; Once again it's situational, as well as personal. (A little chiding for using absolutes again may also be in order.) There's some things that are considered fun or pleasurable by nearly all, some by most, and some by only a few.

Ask if she would care to come with you while you do some errands. It'd be good for her to watch how people interact, especially with you there to clarify and explain. Leave a note for Jericho, then call out to the guards that you're alright and not to attack the golem as you leave. After all, they did seen an unstoppable golem did walk into your room awhile ago. They may have been marshaling forces to try and take it out.

I have a suspicion that the "life essence" is a soul, bound to the golem's core. Possibly not even a whole soul but wisps and scraps of faded souls "pressed" together. I think we should bring Artemis to Tera at some point to see if she can sense a soul within Artemis.

Also, just to check if we can speak directly to her: [Attempt connection to golem "Artemis"; On fail: Connect to pawn "The Thief."]

I thought their ice magic would be quite a bit weaker than our fire magic at first too, but apparently the more powerful sorcerers can make ice so strong not even the hottest fire can melt it… unless then will it too.

Insert Bloody perversions of a bastardly sod_

>harder versus cheaper and lighter
Once again Artemis, there are multiple factors to be considered in how good something is. In the case of a weapon, yes, power / hardness is one criteria. But we also need to consider cost and availability of materials, and how much energy it will consume for someone to use / wield the weapon, and how quickly they can move it, etc.

>We’re related!?
Only conjecture at this point, although there's decent circumstantial evidence.

>what do I do about the books!
...nothing, I'd say. Just don't bring it up if you don't want to be embarrassed. Jer certainly wasn't acting any differently after noticing them.

>>553128
Jericho didn't care. Calm down dude. Tell Artemis not to pick up any of the weapons so that the guards continue to consider her a non-threat.

Eliraz, stop freaking out. Jericho barely reacted when he found your well-thumbed Guide to Undead Erotica. He even skimmed it; On our suggestion, but he still did so. If he does think worse of you for having a kink for the undead then he's hiding it so well even we can't detect it.

So, I take it that having a "thing" for the undead is frowned upon around here, or worse, correct? We thought we heard it wasn't, so were we wrong?

...Wait a second. Are you freaking out 'cause you think that after finding those books Jericho would think you're only attracted to him 'cause he's undead? Well he doesn't, and if he did he has us to tell him otherwise, so he definitely wouldn't.

Anyway, lets go see the sultan. Tell Bjorn you're alright, it's personal, and you have to leave. Make sure Artemis doesn't pick up any weapons so the guards don't get on edge.

>"He's of royal blood!"
Eh, as >>553135 said, it's based on circumstantial evidence. Finding enough good evidence to prove it to the relevant authorities to be recognized as a royal is a whole other matter. And wouldn't being half tribal sink his chances anyway, making this moot?

ok 1, involving the books, he didn't really seem to react to it other then surprised that such a thing existed so no harm no foul.

2, We've kinda been looking into Jericho's ancestry ever since we found out he can us both ice and fire magic, we've made educated guesses and found some promising leads but don't really have any real evidence to either prove or disprove Jericho is related to Esiros.

and lastly 3, Artemis do you even know how to use a weapon?

Also what's next on our to do list, the sultan right?

>>553217
>Also what's next on our to do list, the sultan right?
Careful with your wording. I'm pretty sure the prince doesn't need the mental image. Especially considering his undead preferences.

Looking into Jericho's ancestry may be worthwhile. If you can prove he's royalty, you might be able to make him a free man.

Well, it’s something people gossip about, but it isn’t really frowned upon… It’s not like you sleep with the dead… the dead dead. You know, the illegal kind of dead sleeping. Him being a servant is a lot worse than him being undead.

It’s only the royal blood that’s important. The blood with fire in it. The royal line has always been populated by the most powerful of mages.

But what do about the horde, my lady? They are willing to parley with the smaller settlements that they pass, do you believe they’ll give demands to us too?
Send a message to every village they pass to ready whatever troops they can spare. If they try to do something we’ll have them surrounded. As for the horde… we’ll need to thin their numbers a bit.
But what if they are just here to make demands?
We’ll make sure they cannot blame this on us. They’ll need to pass by the Deadhallow pass so that’s where we’ll lay our trap. Get me the best necromancers the temple have to offer…
Heh, that pass is already filled with their dead from the past, what’s a few hundred more?
Then it is settled. This meeting is abjured… Eliraz? What are you doing here? Is everything alright? …wait, what is that thing behind you? What have Ilbir conjured up this time?

She's a golem. They found her head in the ruins, and has since repaired herself. Artemis, mother, mother, Artemis.

Also, please tell me that's a harmless spider in the window and not, say, a giant bolder about to crash into distant buildings.

Tell Artemis to keep her tone Civil, insulting a sultan pretty much has to be one of the worst things one can do here.

Tell her what you've learned about Jericho though.

actually Jericho found her out in some ruins that Ilbir went to explore, her name is Artemis and identifies herself as a girl... anyways is this a bad time?

Also what's that thing in the window? a spider?

She already has!? And she didn’t… but… I… why didn’t she…
>is this a bad time?
This is an excellent time. I just got some time over after the war meeting. Now, what is on your mind, my dear little gecko? You’ve evaded me like the plague the last week, so why the change of heart?
Well… um… remember those priest that told you I was possessed by an evil Daemon?
…don’t tell me you’ve started to believe their-
They were right… kind off… but the good news is I’m free now. Jericho saved me… he… he fought the thing that was in my mind and… he… he purified me…
…Teal and gray?
…wait, how did yo- wha-
And here I tough I was the only one. Hmm… this is good news, isn’t it? …and that does explain your… fascination with Jericho, doesn’t it?
…how come everyone knows I fancy him!?
You aren’t were subtle, little gecko.

>Artemis, mother, mother, Artemis.
You’re dead? How can you build Eliraz if you’re dead?
I wasn’t always dead… and a functioning golem? Ilbir really found something interesting this time, didn’t he?
>Please tell me that's a harmless spider in the window and not, say, a giant bolder about to crash into distant buildings.
Oh gods! That’s horrible! The Horror! What is a spider of that size doing in the palace!?
Is that a baby spider?
I’m pretty sure it’s full grown, Artemis.
…does it really require four armed soldiers to kill one?
…Either the spiders from your time was huge, or you’re mistaking spiders for something else.

>Tell her what you've learned about Jericho.
You really have the least magical capacity of the family, don’t you?
…what does tha-
His blood… can’t you feel it? The fire… its pulses within him. He has the blood of our lineage. And… something else… something colder… cold like the wastes of the desert…
So…
…I’ll start preparing the rite of dragon fire. It will be done in a few hours. Oh, and I hope we’re right about this… for your sake… I’m sorry, but I won’t allow one of my geckos to… start a relationship with a servant… Now, was it anything else?

Insert Dammit, stop being a reasonable authority figure! You’re ruining everything!_

alright so she knows about us, what color does she have then?

And this rite of dragon fire, this is one of those "if he's from our blood he'll be fine but if he isn't then he'll die" isn't. If so you should probably ask Jericho first as I pretty sure he doesn't really care much for gaining the title of nobility or whatever this thing does. Especially if it put's his life on the line.

Oh and sultan, most time when you tell your kids not to do something they usually do it out of spite or some reason or another. Just an FYI

>And here I [thought] I was the only one
Wait, what color is she, then?

Heh. I figured your mom as a sharp one, Eliraz. Razor sharp. I wonder what her hidden agenda is in all this.

First, the obvious question: How'd she find out our color and Shadow's? I'm guessing she has her own player, so which color is hers? And is it a recent addition or one she's had her whole life?

Ask her what was the message she got from Dur'Ankh. Elizah mentioned to Jericho that one had arrived right before she left for the courtyard. Was it demands from warlord Mor'Kay?

Lastly, show her Jericho's locket and tell her there's an unidentified magical core in it we need identified. We'd prefer to have Ilbir do it, but he's not going to be back for days. Does she know anybody in the Mage Academy or elsewhere in the city we could trust to ID it without blabbing?

Then I guess we'll be off to tell Jericho about him possibly having royal blood, the Rite of Dragon Fire and to return his locket. This rite isn't going to be dangerous for him, right? I assume so, since your mom implied Jericho would still be around afterwards even if he failed it.

Hey, what's your mom's magic specialty? Is she another fire mage like Elizah or did she get something different like you did?

Mention that your sister is pink, if she does not know already.

>Hey, what's your mom's magic specialty? Is she another fire mage like Elizah or did she get something different like you did?
She’s a very powerful fire mage… fire magic runs strong in our blood, after all. I’m the black sheep so to speak…
>this rite of dragon fire, this is one of those "if he's from our blood he'll be fine but if he isn't then he'll die" isn't it?
Of course not. It’s… well, a test of essence, really… or how you’ll put it.

>How'd she find out our color and Shadow's?
You weren’t the only one who receives these weird messages.
>I'm guessing she has her own player, so which color is hers? And is it a recent addition or one she's had her whole life?
I am… I was red.
Was?
He tried to take over… and I fought back and won. I… I’m sorry… I didn’t realize… I… I didn’t want to see that the same thing was happening to you, my sweet gecko… I should have been there for you… but…
You’ve always been here for me, mother… I’m sorry I didn’t ask for help.
>I wonder what her hidden agenda is in all this.
The only agenda I have is for my people… and my family…
>Mention that your sister is pink, if she does not know already.
Really? I need to have a talk with her, then.

>Ask her what was the message she got from Dur'Ankh.
The warlord requested food, water and weapon from them… and from every city between Dur’ankh to here or they’ll all burn. I still don’t know why, but they seem hell bent on getting to the capital.
>Show her Jericho's locket and tell her there's an unidentified magical core in it we need identified.
Hmm… I can give it to Reizn. I should be able to identify it. He’s going to be at the rite, so I’ll give it back to you then.
>Oh and sultan, most time when you tell your kids not to do something they usually do it out of spite or some reason or another. Just an FYI.
If they are teenagers, yes, but I expect better from and adult like my little gecko here.
Of course, mother.
Remember, little gecko, if you ever need anything, I’m here for you.

>I guess we'll be off to Jericho.
Jericho? I need… wait, did you read all those books while I was away!? I’ve barely been gone two hours!
Of course not. I’ve put some of them back on the shelf when I was done with them… and I went out on the market for some fresh air.
…and bought some flowers? …these… I… how did you?
Half of your paintings have those kind of flowers in them… and I can understand why, they really smell lovely, don’t they?

So did you learn anything new while we were gone, how was your bath, we kinda signed you up for something called the rite of dragon fire to see if you're of royal blood, did you enjoy your walk?

But yeah what exactly is this rite anyways?

Actually this reminds me now, since your half and half, could you actually have children?

Also you might want to explain to her that sex isn't always the followup to a happy moment... And I'm curious if she knows between sex (the physical body), or if she knows your not full male.

And of course, doubleswoon.

Artemis. In order to observe mating rituals, you need to ask about a day in advance. If you interrupt, like now, you can 'spoil the moment' which prevents creation of offspring.

Also Jericho is dead. I don't think he can make other lizards.

>>But yeah what exactly is this rite anyways?
Well… you take a piece of someone’s… well, essence, I guess. You know, the thing in the blood… the thing that gives you magic. Usually it’s a few drops of blood, but for you it’s probably going to be a piece of your core. Don’t worry; it isn’t anything more dangerous than taking a blood sample. Then we take the blood and put it in an enchanted bowl which will, if you have strong enough connection to us, light itself on fire.

>Artemis. In order to observe mating rituals, you need to ask about a day in advance.
Then can I watch the next time you try?
No… no, you cannot. This is supposed to be private.

Didn’t you say sister? Can I meet everyone? I like meeting new ones! Oh, I thought I saw some fun things on our way here from Eliraz mother and… I feel weaker? Why do I feel weak? I’m malfunctioning? What’s going on? Where is my energy!? Eliraz, help me! They tell me to charge someone again but I don’t know who they are and what to charge and I feel weak and Jericho help and Eliraz help!

Insert Batteries not included_

I think the golem facade might be wearing off? In which case, Artemis might need some copious amount of electricity.

Pure magic might work instead. Try channeling energy into her.

It's been sitting in a crypt for god knows how long and NOW decides to run out of power?!?

Jericho, try some magic stuff. Eliraz, try to find that amulet. It's the only macguffin-type/non-elemental magic I think we can get our hands on right now.

all else fails try on of those stones or tears we've been collecting.

Dammit. Okay, she reactivated before, back at the dig, so she must have gotten power from somewhere. We just have to figure out from where and what. Um. My best guess it involves Jericho, somehow. Perhaps near-direct contact with a large concentration of magic? Or applying magic directly?

I don't want to risk applying magic directly to her head, since that may break her. Eliraz, pull up Artemis shirt. Jericho, put both hands on her torso. If that doesn't do anything apply a bit of fire magic. Just enough to warm up the stone a little.

I really, really hope Artemis doesn't run on "life essence," AKA souls. That's a path I'm pretty sure none of us wants to go down.

>>553344
If that's the case then we don't know where her power cell or charge socket is, and applying copious amounts of electricity to the wrong spot would be like applying mains power directly to a microprocessor.

>>553341
She reactivated when Jericho got near. So maybe Jericho should give her a poke.

Maybe she just needs to rest.

>They tell me to charge

Being an immobile head doesn’t really drain a lot of energy, I’m guessing.

Wait, let me get my magical battery, if you can channel magic into her it should be able to do it too.

Not everyone have magical powers themselves to recharge their gear, alright? …and no, the shadow powers don’t count… they aren’t really “magic” as we know it.
