Having carefully studied the new verses, Celeste nodded approvingly.
- Yes, this will do. Thank you! It is heartening to know that our right pillar is not only a noble warrior, but a poet of the highest order.
To Amchik's exhibition.
Purian-975 (P) 10
The natural development of transport in favor of individualization, for every valuable creation should have its own master, with the maximum level of mutual understanding. Unlike a train, such a machine can be repaired by oneself on the fly, and it possesses far more flexibility. This is a responsible approach to the individual, though it may be possible to expand upon it.
Lightsaber 8
In this weapon, I must note the use of principles that are new to me (and, I assume, to many), but I have a feeling that its author rushed to apply them in the way they did. Doesn't it simply "burn" gemstones? While its efficiency may be high, it clearly is not worth such an expense. What is the point of generating a constant energy beam that spends most of its time heating the air?
I will not be intimidated by the identity of its creator; practice shows that genius and villainy are, alas, often compatible.
Paired Hand Swords 8
I won't hide that the idea of combat scissors has been in the air for a long time; there isn't much originality or novelty here. However, it is made with great quality; I want to note that the author managed to implement them so that attacks do not require lengthy preparation to place a hypothetical opponent between the blades.
Compass of Pair Attraction 10
This is the most romantic invention I have ever seen, bravo!
Two-Handed Mechanical Sword 10
Though I may be subjective, I like everything about it: the sound, the elegance with which the chains rotate, the very memory of construction with every detail thought through... The amount of precision mechanics, despite the apparent simplicity, is great and wonderfully demonstrates many properties of metal as an element.
Stilettos 10
The highest quality of leatherwork, and I hope that this praise means something coming from me. As for combat application — it is pleasing!
Extractors 1
Here I must make an exception to the generally enthusiastic tones. A warrior's blood is something they must preserve as much as the situation allows. To part with it voluntarily? Absurd and fraught with many dangers entirely unrelated to the damage received. Not to mention that it simply makes little sense, as damage comparable to health multiplied by 2 can be achieved in countless other ways, most of which would not be single-use. To fire someone else's blood, you first need your enemy to "allow" you to do so...
In total, this weapon seems intentionally made for suicide bombers, which is far from noble combat. Or perhaps for some immortal regenerating beings with protection against curses... A strange quirk.
Dakimakura (Sonata Reime) 9
This is very fine embroidery, and the person depicted in the work is a good one. The question is that I find the idea of hugging a pillow doubtful; the warm touch of a real person cannot be replaced by a fiction (and if it could, it would be even more terrifying). If only such enthusiasm were applied to creating some kind of tapestry...
Figure 10
In my opinion, life-sized statues would have been much better: they would require more effort, but would pay off both in terms of the possibility to create details and in the aesthetic effect on the surrounding interior. Still, it is beautiful, and it is evident at first glance that it is high-tech.
