Ancients and the Flame
Gem Forge Notes
Lore from the journal's Ancients and the Flame pages: 2 entries, read at 2 places in Cinder's Cradle.
Where it is read
I loathe abandoning this project before completion, but the elders are right. Gems simply do not possess enough energy to power our ascent.
Still, I may return to my forge blueprints eventually... so I've stored my notes away on the upper floor.
It seems the lock mechanism is working as intended. Being able to see the door and the light above it from the button below is really quite practical!
Primary Materials
Effusion Rock High silicon content required. Preferred substrate: Basalt (for adequate thermal stability)
Precious Metal Conduit Aurum alloy recommended. (superior conductivity and resistance to arcane deterioration.)
Inner Fibre Hull Candidate materials under review:
Celestium Increases structural integrity and energy retention.
Moonstone Too brittle for compression. However, adularescence may improve internal light propagation. Further testing required.
Conductor Assembly
Use diamond lattices for maximum durability and better resistance to internal fractures.
Foundation Base
Construct a wide circular base to ensure uniform pressure distribution across forge chamber flooring.
Compression
Reinforce overhead supports to prevent structural distortion.
Final Reminder
Increase storage capacity for Archaic Essences. Insufficient containment may result in uncontrolled combustion.
