((Apparently Greek g-ds like poetry))

Apparently my words have cut straight to the heart of Hephaestus.

"I Offer My Power To You Hephaestus.
And Offer This Deal To You.
If Though Will Take Me As an Apprentice,
I Shall Call You Master And Obey You.

For Compared to You,
Great Lord Of The Forge,
I am still Only a Novice.

To You, I can be a source of power,
As there is strength in numbers.
For me I need new education,
To reach new heights out yonder."


Though hath sent a signal.
I will speak not in poet's tounge.
((Shakespearian English is still fair game))



Skelliborn

Action:

First pick up the iron tablet.

Next offer a deal to Hephaestus in which
1. You become his Apprentice
2. During the apprenticeship you call Hephaestus Master
3. During the apprenticeship Hephaestus co-inhabits Skelliborn's body along with Skelliborn's soul.

The point of keeping the golems on fire isn't for the value of fire as a weapon. It's more to keep the golems functioning at a reasonable speed.
It was never a promise. It was a dirty lie, and you all knew that. You should all know by now that you can't trust a word I say.

((Whoo, the auras are back up!))

Enchant my bow so that it simply tells the user how best to aim. Use two +1+1 knowledge essences, and of course, take full advantage of the magic aura.

Four knowledge essences afterwards.

Of course, scram if something dangerous happens in my general vicinity.

James sits and waits for the rest of the expedition to arrive.
While waiting he tries to replace the armguards crossbow with a wrist mounted chainsaw, or at least some sort of blade.
Then he plays essence roulette with summoning essences..

Head northwest. Fuse 1 POT and 1CMP essence. Create 1 essence.

I don't need to climb. All I need is to collapse part of the pit wall to form a ramp to walk up. By carving chunks out of it. Should be doable with my arms.

If this seems impossible to do, then simply make my legs grow longer until I can get out.

That was for making essences using essences. Fusing essences could had been a thing long ago, but nobody used it and now it is entirely out as evryone would just make sets of +5/+5's.

((Found out a 'another ritual'; Since the essences +5/+5 hard limit is 'only' for a turn, someone could make some different things with the help of essences, combine with the help of essences, rinse and repeat until you get the desired object without the 'normal ritual'.))
