Julian’s silver light didn't flow like water; it struck the Star-Forge like Lightning. The warehouse erupted in a blinding, prismatic glare. The million souls in the server vats let out a collective hum of resonance. In the center of the Forge, a silhouette began to form. It wasn't bone and blood; it was a weave of Silver-Light and Carbon-Fiber Lattice. "Elara..." Julian’s voice echoed, not through the speakers, but directly into her mind. "The scale...
