Day 160: Moonday the 25th, Calistril, 4708
*This is the third of six entries that are recorded after the sixth day. I had ended up having a very unusual adverse reaction to the supplement that I started to take two days before this entry, and it continued throughout this day. Everything here is what has been gathered from witness accounts and evidence*
I apparently made my way to the dining hall again first thing in the morning, not even having woken Savah up, and worked on the next dietary enhancement machine. This time, it was supposed to hone the reflexes and manual coordination of the consumer. This was finished with what was apparently my standard steady work pattern, and the next machine to be installed had its base installed by the time that noon came around. After I got done all that I could, I apparently contacted Faunra over our radios to have her get here to start her process. Just after noon, the four of us, Faunra, Dame Rebekah, Savah, and myself, all participated in our own individual improvement dietary processes.
There was a conversation after this where Faunra remembered thanking us and commenting that her last dosage would have to be early in the day that we all went to Magnimar. Dame Rebekah remembers asking me how we all intended on making it to the city, and she claimed that I volunteered to pilot the plane and pick everyone up, excepting of course, the large fire truck construct. Faunra had offered up that she and the construct would teleport there, but that we needed to acquire a large enough area so that we could keep the construct a secret until just before the parade.
From what I am told, I offered up to them all that I could zip over to Magnimar today and tomorrow if needed and set up the airplane hangar that we were looking to build for the city's runway and be done with that portion of that project as well. Savah remembered that she had asked me how long it would take to be completed, and I apparently told her that it shouldn't take me more than an hour or two each day until it was complete. Savah said that I had then asked her if she wanted to join me, and she declined, noting that she didn't think that she wanted to go at this time. I then told her that I wouldn't be too long and asked her if she wanted me to get anything while I was there.
Savah told me that she smiled and that she said that I'd think of something. I apparently walked her back to the shop and then the rest of my information comes from Niddler, who I went to go check in with and he agreed to go with me to get his agricultural guild paperwork sorted out. He apparently perched on my shoulder while I was in my armor. I apparently utilized the Anathema Archive to teleport us to Heidmarch Manor. Sheila was there and a bit surprised by my sudden appearance.
Sheila recovered very quickly and had asked me, in a huff, if I had anything to report. I apparently straightforward asked her if it would violate any pathfinder ethos to relocate an entire facility of important materials to a safe area, to prevent theft or stupid activation of areas. Sheila apparently asked me what I had done with a raised eyebrow. With Niddler there to listen, I told her that we had encountered a facility that showed knowledge of technology far beyond what should be present in the area, and that it wasn't safe for either the location, or the city it was in, so I relocated it, via rituals, to a place of relative isolation.
Niddler told me that after this, Sheila's jaw dropped and was silent. Niddler told me that I then continued with asking her if she could round up some, and my exact phrasing here was, "not complete imbeciles who could learn to that they shouldn't stick their various and sundry genitalia in radioactive water" from among the Pathfinder students, so that I could teach them to take care of the plant and learn from it. Niddler told me that Sheila was a bit haughty and said that she'd look into it, but that my "pet project" of a school was already sapping a LOT of Pathfinder potential.
Niddler told me that I responded that I was only looking for people who wanted to study and advance knowledge, both their own and the world, and not, you know, dotards who are content with just riding on the coattails of others. Niddler says that Sheila was a bit miffed at that, and said that she'd ask around, before politely asking me to get the fuck out of her manor. Niddler claims that I did just that, and we left, with me claiming that I had to deal with other issues. Apparently, her husband, Canayven, was just coming to the room that I left from. He wasn't pleased to see me and commented as such.
I apparently just shrugged and said that I had brought more to the Pathfinder than him but was glad to have him as the political wing of the organization nearby, than to consider upending his raison d'être. He was confused by that, but I just kept on walking, with Niddler still perched on my shoulder. We quickly made our way to the agricultural guild, and I acted as Niddler's silent backer as he bartered and wheedled his way through the agreements that he needed to make. He eventually got his upgraded guild clearance, and we left to go talk to the Lord-Mayor Grobaras or at least his personal assistant, Valanni. When we got there, we were able to completely avoid the stables, since I didn't have either mount or steam-cycle.
Valanni was apparently more than happy to see me, as the Lord-Mayor was busy. Valanni apparently inquired about why I was here, and I informed him that we needed to get the contract confirmed for the airport, hangar, and airplane, or at least the runway and hangar portion of it. Valanni hemmed and hawed a bit before I just noted that if the city didn't want it, I wouldn't push it, but that I'd look to see what other places wanted to be connected to both Sandpoint and the legendary city of Xin Shalast. Valanni blinked and asked if I was serious. I noted that the city of Xin Shalast was reconnected with the outside world, and was being reformed into the city of Jotunburg, and that they would need dedicated, loyal, honest trading partners.
Valanni pulled out the contract that had been worked out, and immediately signed it, without any further hesitation. Valanni asked how soon we could get both the plane and the airport ready. I told him that they would be ready within two months. Valanni noted that if it could be done within a month, that he would get us a bonus. I nodded and asked him where they wanted the airport/hangar.
Valanni asked if it would be feasible to have it outside the city walls. I asked him to point out where, and he took me up to the top of the Pediment Building and pointed to an area. I took a picture of the area and asked him for a writ to commence construction immediately. Valanni produced one and asked if there was anything else I would need. I thought for a minute and noted that the road crew would be done within two weeks, so he might want to look into something else for them to do.
Valanni nodded and took off to go about his duties. We took flight and landed just on the city wall, to note to the guardsmen that were present that I would be building something just below us, outside the wall, and that I had a writ right here. The guardsman apparently took it and went to go check with his supervisor. After a while, the guardsman came back, with the supervisor and asked where I was going to build it. I pulled out my phone and showed the picture of where Valanni pointed, and it settled the issue. I flew out the rest of the way, with Niddler, and immediately summoned up six batches of Unseen Crafter Hordes to level off the terrain to the level of substantial rock and stone to anchor the Wall spells that I would be casting later.
I left Niddler there, observing the operation while I went back into the city and went to go pick up something for Savah. Apparently, I found a very, VERY nice silk and fur robe, with a nice silk sash in colors that I thought that she would like. It was also enchanted to bedevil the mind of whomever the wearer desired, once a day, and could change appearance to be whatever was the appropriate fashion at the time. Niddler told me that it was very nice when he saw it later. I don't know what else I did during the hour that I had spent out in Magnimar without Niddler. I haven't encountered anyone who knows what I did, I just hope it wasn't anything negative.
After the hour or so of time in the city, I came back to the area that was cleared down about a half a foot below present ground level. I got the rod of widen out and put down the layer of walls of stone, making it a ten-inch-thick slab, protected from ethereal intrusion from below via the other aspect of the rod that we used. I'm estimating that it took me the full six castings that we could use from the two rods that we had to get about two thirds of the way done. I apparently utilized the last one to get the base set up for the hangar and the tower, which I then utilized a fair number of Walls of Iron spells to start the structure for said same hangar, creating the first floor's walls and ceiling/ floor of the second floor. By the end of the day, Niddler tells me that I had a large amount of the structure built, and that I had told him that I would finish the shell of the building and the runway tomorrow.
Niddler also noted that I had claimed that I had converted the thinnest outermost layer of all of the iron to be copper but invisibly, with the use of the other metamagic rod that we had. He said that I did this to prevent corrosion. I then apparently summoned up a batch of Unseen Crafters to start work on getting doors, windows, and a roll up garage door big enough for the plane to roll into when it is completed. Niddler tells me that when I was done with that, I asked him if he wanted to do a quick shopping spree in Magnimar.
Niddler retold me that he said that he didn't have any currency on him, but I shushed him, heading to the runway. Niddler then told me that I transmuted the top layer of the entire runway to paper and collected it all for sale. Apparently, I did this twice and we collected up all of the paper. We went to a place where three tons of paper were not a big issue to sell, and even after some haggling, I apparently got a good deal, at least from what Niddler says.
I ended up getting a couple of items that will help with everything that needs to be done: a page of spell knowledge: Teleport, another pointer of Expeditious Construction, another spade of Expeditious Excavation, and an Eternal Wand of Fabricate Bullets. Niddler got a Talisman of the Disc to help him cycle through his chores easier and an Eternal Wand that will allow him to generate two Instant Portrait effects a day. He told me that he had wanted it to have portraits of his chickens up around the farm for posterity.
With no time left on my two-hour quote, Niddler and I teleported back to Sandpoint, to Scratchpoint specifically. From there, Niddler went back to his farm to get to work on his chicken murals while I went and presented Savah with both the contract for the Airport/Plane and more importantly, her new robe. She claims that she loves it. I'm glad I chose well, considering the circumstances. Not much else happened this day, other than Savah saying that we got some good quality time together.
