The Craftsman 400 Massacre

------------------------------------------------------------------------

As I heard the word golems I felt saddened, my children where working for the enemy. I know they had rebelled against me and Daedalus, but I never expected this.

I have transformed into my battle form, it is something Richard came up with. It was weird, he was giggling like a child when I, transformed, as he called it. This mission make me feel hollow, no matter, I will disable my emotions for the time being.

Ultraun then proceeded to enter the very center of the colony. His battle suit was equipped with camouflage tech which he had designed, so he was invisible.

As he looked around half of the golems looked rusty and falling apart. The others where more refined and ordering the rusted ones around. It didn't take much thought to realise That it was a caste system. Even then none of them seemed to have been improved much since they rebelled. The cleaner golems however looked to be made of an unknown metal.

Other than the golems there where no other beings within the colony from what his scouting system told him. After confirming a few more times, Ultraun began.

He called on the fragments within the golems that where clearly higher in the caste. By doing this the souls of all of the aristocrats where pulled out of their bodies. In seconds a third of the population was devoured.

Ultraun immediately felt that his soul was growing stronger, but he didn't care, he couldn't. As he had turned off his emotions he couldn't even feel the rush of power properly, he only felt an increase in control over the souls that where derived from his.

After acclimatising to the new soul strength, Ultraun quickly devoured the rest of the souls that where there. With that done he returned to Daedalus and said "I will be shutting down for a small amount of time, I turned off my emotions, but the pain is too much."

Saying this Ultraun's body collapsed into Daedalus' arms.

Normal POV

Daedalus could tell that Ultraun thought of himself as the father of all of the golems he made, and there descendants. And he was, but they had turned down the wrong path and had to be culled.

With everything done Daedalus found himself face to face with the leader of the army hat had helped them get there. They spoke as soon as they are that Daedalus had focused on them "That being you are holding is a golem, no?"

Daedalus nodded his head and said "Yes, his soul is also a part of mine that I gave to give him life. I would hope you don't suspect me of anything."

The leader of the army just huffed and said "Just go and scout that other continent or whatever you where ordered to do."

As the army leader went to walk away Daedalus grabbed his arm and said "It wasn't an order, they asked me to explore that continent. If I had declined I suspect you would have been forced to go."

The leader immediately got the hint and bowed before walking away.
