The corrosion looks severe. I may need to melt the blade down and reforge it-- but only the blade. If I add a kind of magical ore to it, it will be stronger. Is that all right with you, or would you rather I tried to repair the blade as is with mundane materials? It could end up with weaknesses in the core without a full recast.
[Oh, Neuvillette likes the draft. That's good. If he didn't, Blade would have scrapped everything and started over until he got it perfect.]
Glad you approve. I might need a short extension after all, seeing as something came up. No matter what happens next month I will be working that metal as the magic demands, but I'd like to take more time with the details before the final hand-off.
I've recently started building a mechanical suit for the defense of the city. The prophecies have me concerned, and I want to be proactive.
I was including that in my previous estimate. It will be done by sunrise.
[Who needs sleep???]
Mechanical armor. The kind that comes with a basic program... Like Gundam. Iron Man. That sort of thing.

In my past life I was an engineer. We maintained something like this. I won't be able to match what they did with the technology available to me here, but I'd rather have something than nothing if disaster strikes.

How long would it take if you were to reforge the blade? Can you provide me with an interim replacement?[also. long typing bubble.]
Sorry, you are building a what for the city's defense?no subject
