10 - Myr Battlesphere
Somewhere on Mirrodin, there are graveyards of broken Myrs. Most were broken because they had fallen victim to another creature or construct. Others were broken because of their own clumsiness, accidentally inducing their own state of disrepair. Myrs still functioning often gathered their disabled kin and add their parts to the ever-growing heaps of twisted metal and rusted limbs. No one was certain why the Myrs disposed of their kin in this manner, but then again, the Myr would only reply in a language of clicks and mechanical whirls that only another Myr would understand.
As the blue sun rose to it's highest point in the sky, four seemingly uninteresting Myr carried the body of a fifth to once such graveyard. They stood along the edge of a crevasse and looked down at the rest of the Myr bodies that littered the steep side of the cliff. With logical calculations, the Myr lifted the body of their disabled companion over their beak shaped heads and promptly tossed the remains over the edge.
The body struck the down slope of the cliff and spun like a tire on its edge. It quickly collided with another Myr body, and it too began to roll down the cliff side with the first.
The two Myr bodies continued to roll until they struck even more parts of Myr that have been discarded long ago, and the parts somehow got stuck within the joints of the bodies. As they rolled, they began to gather even more Myr parts as they rolled over them. The two masses of rolling parts soon merged together to form one giant rolling sphere of Myr and the four Myr at the top of the cliff continued to watch in curiosity as the hunk of mass continued to grow as it gathered more materials in it's path.
The sphere then rolled over a Myr that still had a functional core, even if it's arms and legs were removed. As the weight of the sphere crushed the casing of the core, the mana that provided artificial life for the Myr was released. A surge of colorless energy pulsated throughout the combined parts and in that instant, the Myr Battlesphere was completed.
Atop the cliff, four pairs of blank eyes watched in curiosity as a sphere of Myr body parts then began to roll back UP the face of the cliff. The Myr Battlesphere jumped over the edge and when it landed on the cliff's top, it halted. Four Myrs continue to stare in bewilderment. A moment later, the Battlesphere rotated slightly and began to roll slowly away from the cliff edge. The four Myr, curious about this new construct, followed after it.
