"So, what do you think about this?" Aether asked, his eyes fixed on the array of gun components meticulously dismantled and arranged on the white table before them.
"Hmm… It's fascinating technology," Lyirrs muttered, her voice tinged with curiosity as she leaned in closer. "Look at the integration—nozzle, trigger, spring tension, the shaft assembly… every element's machined to a precision you don't see outside of royal workshops."
After Aether had procured the weapon from Rosavere, he'd wasted no time. He returned straight to Pyra and sought out Lyirrs.
She was the best mind for such puzzles... two heads were always better than one, right?
So, Lyirrs led Aether down to her private lab she had near the palace.
Together, they'd worked slowly, carefully dismantling the artifact and laying out its components. Aether watched Lyirrs' steady hands as she catalogued each part, both of them deep in silent analysis.
