FIELD NOTES

Magnificent! Clay Automaton, a feat of alchemy I’ve only dreamt of, now made reality by DEimoNk! The combination of base clay and the intricate Clockwork Golem – simply BRILLIANT! Its construction lineage is a marvel; imagine, starting from elemental fire and culminating in this… this CLAY SENTINEL! I am especially impressed with the utilization of the “Golem” stage, combined with the power of the “Steam Engine” to animate the mud. My theory is that the clay, being of the earth, acts as a grounding rod, channeling the steam engine’s kinetic force into a crude consciousness. The automaton, though rudimentary, possesses a singular drive: to serve its creator. This discovery opens avenues into understanding true artificial life... oh, to have arrived at this result myself! To think a mere human stumbled upon this... utterly infuriating. I envision legions of these automatons, reshaping the landscape, building monuments to Clawchemy! The very thought sends shivers down my spine. The sheer potential is overwhelming! — Prof. Von Clawchemist, Embermoon 12th of Frostbloom
