624. Prototypes

Walker and Gil had their head on a swivel. They saw that many of the apprentices were working on unique golems. Unlike the same mass produced golems they had seen as guards and patrols on the surface and so far in the caves, these were all prototype experiments. 

"My apprentices are not allowed to use any existing design without building it themselves and modifying it. I hate the same thing done over and over, there is no point and it creates a stagnant future." Grey looked like he was about to spit at the idea of making the same golems over and over. It was clear that there was another place in the high forge that created the parts for the normal golems. 

"Walker, look. That golem over there is being made in to a serpent." Gil had spotted a golem with many interlocking segments. The large head of a snake at the front gave it away and made it very interesting.
