A Being of Infinite Wisdom! (Really?!)

The Iron Sovereign's voice resounded once more: 

"I will now show you a skill. How much of it you understand will be up to you. Hopefully, you comprehended the Will of Iron enough to master it."

Right afterward, they were back above the liquid metal. The old man had a glint in his metal eyes as he looked toward Josh. But, his gaze was slightly off as if he couldn't truly see him. Was this the magical equivalent of a recording? 

"Observe carefully, for I will only show you once." He had a gentle smile that turned serious as he graciously raised a hand above his head in a commanding posture. 

Following his gesture, the liquid began rising. The metal formed spikes, flying spears, soldiers, mounted knights, and even dragons. Josh could only stare wide-eyed. This was a goddamn legion!
