"Nine hells, that sounds terrifying. Who would DO something like that?
But golems sound like what I meant. I was thinking of basic weaponized constructs, just small ones that could be made and deployed in a fight. Something to fly in an enemy's face and be a problem to them. Or worse, potentially."

You use 7 Mana to form a mana stone. It’s larger than the one you received from Byrnolf and stores less, but it’s a start.

"Hrmph. That's all I've got right now."

Haiva: ”Weaponized construct, hmm? I have a gift from someone I trained under for a bit that sounds like that.”

The table and chairs are whisked away, and a large metal object slams into the floor with a clang.

It’s… A metal lupus head? No, a helmet.

Haiva: ”Bulwark Mark Two!”

A loud screeching sound emits from the helm, and it rises in the air supported by magically formed metal plates, soon resulting an entire suit of empty lupus armor standing on its own. The metal beast easily stands a foot above your head, surely it would be terrifying sight in a battlef-

Haiva: ”Sit!

With a crash, the armor drops to the ground in a sitting position like an obedient dog.

Haiva: ”Something like this, maybe?”

And the red mage, he said something about the Mons of the Second playing a big part in Esthen's politics, offering them protection, and they might have a plan to prevent war."

Miimas: ”Do you think that plan has anything to do with him?”

She points to Kleigg, who’s talking with the others in the Dome.

Kyeltsiv: "I'm thinkin' there might be people on both sides who don't want peace, gotta hope they don't try anythin' crazy."

Miimas: ”Do you think they’d tell us if we just asked them? Their plan, that is.”

"I-
Dear lord. No, I uh. Was thinking decidedly smaller. Simple constructs for literal use as weapons. Small daggers or knives made of conduit, with a focus and a release. Could stab an enemy, drain their energy, use it to drive small magic against them. Maybe some kinetics to keep the knife from being pulled out.
Though damn if this Bulwark isn't convincing. But uh, right now I'm thinking smaller scale. Maybe something like this in the future."

Haiva: ”Hmm, I see. Something like this?”

Bulwark disappears and reappears in a different spot of the temple, still remaining in a sitting position, while Haiva pulls a sword out of the air. It looks like a sturdy rapier with a crossguard composing of two medium length bars at the base of the blade that point in the direction of the cutting edges, and two other ones that start at the sides of the base of the blade, come out about an inch, and hook 90 degrees upward in the same direction as the blade, probably to more easily catch and redirect an opponent’s weapon. Directly under the four pronged crossguard are two metal rings, each having a trigger inside. The pommel is a clear crystal sphere with smaller, colored crystals and veins running about within.

Haiva: ”The first trigger creates a kinetic explosion at the tip of the weapon.”

She holds the rapier up in the air and demonstrates by pressing the first trigger, resulting in a small but powerful explosion at the tip of the weapon.

Haiva: ”The second one makes the tip super sharp so you can punch through metal.”

The second trigger is held down, the air hissing as the weapon is slowly waved about for a bit before being deactivated.

"If I am ready to face Lucida, let me do it now."

Vakaumus: ”I - suppose if you’re eager to try, we can give it a go. We can keep the anti-magic systems at partial operation so you can practice against a fragment of Lucida’s power.”

Bulwark is deactivated, the armor vanishing into quickly vanishing mist, and the staff is placed back into the case. Vakaumus leads you and Armin to the dome’s doorway, where P’orihc, Ki’stha, Kyeltziv, and Miimas are gathered.

Vakaumus: ”I am Vakaumus. Might you be friends of Kleigg here?”

Ki’stha: "They won't tell us as a group if we waste time going to both sides together - why don't we make 2 groups and attempt to placate both sides ourselves?"

"Kleigg is probably part of their plan. Since he is unique with the negation magic and such, he seems to be very important for them. But by the looks of it, they try to turn him into a weapon, or maybe as a banner for their cause. Whatever he does, I hope he'll not regret it later.

And who'd I ask? The man teaching Kleigg? He looks rather focused on it."

Not a moment later, the man walks over to the dome’s doorway with the others behind him, except for the armored figure who seems to have disappeared. The man seems quite aged, his grey hair starting to lose hold of a spot at the top of his head.

Vakaumus: ”I am Vakaumus. Might you be friends of Kleigg here?”

You improve your mana stone with 2 of your own mana and 1 from the stone Byrnolf gave you.

"Closer. Definitely has the effects I'm looking for. But make it small, throwable, made entirely from conduit, and possibly enemy-seeking. That's what I'm interested in.
Or hell, just hard throwing weapons that I can form on the fly."

You form a crossbow bolt out of pure conduit, making sure to make it nice and durable. It’s a crossbow bolt alright, and although it looks like glass, you can chuck it at Bulwark without the bolt being damage.

Haiva: ”Seems a bit expensive for something you throw at the enemy, don’t you think? And the cases where you’d need that kind of power, the target would probably be somewhat capable of protecting themselves from projectiles, magic, or both, and giving them ammo wouldn’t be a great idea. Unless if you plan to make the entire thing like, explode or something.”

Ki’stha: "Friends and travelling companions."

Kyeltziv: "Yeah, we've been travelin' together for a while."

Miimas: ”I uh, I guess?”

P’orihc: "Indeed, we are probably the closest to friends we have.
I was wondering, could you answer us a couple of questions? If it's not too much of an inconvenience, of course, since you seem rather busy with Kleigg, but we feel really curious and would really appreciate your time."

"I hope to live to travel many more roads with you all. Vakaumus - would you be willing to tell them a few details on my involvement?"

Vakaumus: ”Of course. Let’s head over to somewhere with a bit more privacy, first.”

He leads the group to a wide, single-floor high circular building with a flat top, and numerous men stationed above and around. Upon entering, it seems like the interior is a giant ring with a closed off section in the middle, and the party takes a flight of stairs down for a short distance before arriving in a chamber with a large metal doorway, locked with giant bolts.

There are a few people in the chamber as well who look like they’re watching dials and patrolling the halls that go around the central room.

Vakaumus: ”We have a powerful magic item in our possession that has a will of its own, called Lucida. We would like to use Lucida, but doing so would require someone with powerful anti-magic capabilities to control it and prevent it from causing unnecessary damage. Kleigg has agreed to be our controller, and in return we offer him food, shelter, monetary compensation, and protection from any forces that seek to do him harm. We will gladly extend these benefits to any and all of his companions should they have need or want. That is the gist of it, are there any particular details that any of you would like to know?”

Miimas: ”Um, what are you trying to use Lucida for?”

Vakaumus: ”Leverage. The Second wishes to use Lucida as a display of power, to back words with force without actually having to launch any attacks or do any harm. We do not have unrealistic demands either, we simply want Vranhal to abolish its ban on religious activities, and compensate those who lost either family, friends, or property during the Equilibrium war and the rebellions prior.”
