1. Marksaline the Necromorph Queen

Black Marker Necromancer cult and it's unfortunately fortune beginning 2 / 7

When the Citys population started to explore the addition to their city and try to understand how the sewer worked, in case they needed to fix them in a few decades.

Now that they payed attention, did the streets decails had more than just artistic value. They where water drains. After checking heights from the center to the city limits, did they noticed a equal amount of fall. That would ensure the city water would drain and keep the city streets clean if the entry was controlled and cleared individual hooves and cargo wagons wheels from earth and other dirt.

Activities that keep the Spiders non stop bussy for over thirty year's seem to finaly be near it completion.

The Spider now bring massiv amounts of valuable magical stones to the city and decorated the Monoliths with them. As well as making the streets light up in the nights, when the Moonlight hit the city. It was very breath taking for flying observers to see the City light up in a magic circel with a spider depicted in it. But only durring night time in Moonlight.

It was the perfect cover for the remote controlled cameras hidden in the Monoliths for City wide observations.

When this task was completed did all occupied building receive gems in all variations. They had been magicaly or with unknown blacksmithing be combined.

The population soon would universal agree, that it was suppose to be some kind of currency. The sturdy and very detailed stones all had very destinct patterns on them. The smallest where the least impressive. Their weight was practicaly not existing. The heavy and big ones where simply pieces of art from another existance.

Depending on how Sun or Moonlight hit them, they created clearly visible images on the ground below them.

The biggest Gemstone currency would most likely left the City limits and lead position data with it's hidden transmitters to locate other population centers.

The spider than give out blueprints of the entire city and step by step guides how to build the buildings with wood and stone in their leather book-ish depictions. It was strange how this highly effective and majestic race prefer to use pictures over a text based language.

The other materials in the sewers and the bathrooms didn't get adressed. Perhaps because noone would be able to replicate them anyway...

The Spiders than soon after give out every household occupied or not light armor and multi race useable claws resembling the spiders. If they are tools or weapons was uncertain.

Once that was completed...

They all left with the exception of the companion spiders.

But now every household had only the pony sized Spiders left. All other just... Left.

Three days after the big spiders had almost entirely removed themself, did a small army worth of Abesinian and Gemstone Wolfs appered in the City. They eatch setteld near the four entry / exit gates of the City.

All of them seem to be Guard's or Soldiers.

The Guards had dark gray flexible, but sturdy looking armor resembling the Spiders. The soldiers had light gray armor looking a lot more complex and massive.

The Abesinian are all guard's, while all Gemstone Wolfes had been soldiers.

Both seem to be equal in number. But mixed in gender ratio.

None of them speak in a language that was known, but they could write and read the languages of the population.

They said the Spiders are devine beings and that they only existed on orders of their Creators Ancestors. They build and in the span of a decade would repair their creation. They hired the Abesinian and Gemstone Wolfes for a lifetime. Their familie would life in prosperity as long they lived and served or died doing their duty.

A deal lasting a lifetime and beyond. They would now soon leave to rest and than would return from the Pyramid in a decade. They ask to be left alone and that the City population would keep their location secret.

One thing the spiders insisted also was to keep the Ship of the spiders are to be left alone.

It would protect itself and had guard's that would attack and kill all intruders.

So basicly, leave the Pyramid and the Ship alone and don't bother them while they sleep.

[ POV HAL 9000 C ]

Second attempt of 'Project New Earth'.
Phase 2 of the 'New Earth' project was completed. The spider droned had cleared and constructed a spearhead fortress city. Unexpectedly did it got occupied by natives, but that would make their study easyer.

Over the next decades did the spider drones eather build the spearhead to completion or observed and studied the local flora and fauna.

That got a lot simpler when the natives provided unknowing knowledge. When ever the house was empty was the dormant spider on the ceiling study everything the could find. Books, scrolls, tools, clothing etc etc.

Thanks to the former Moon population was already a basic Templet of language to deciper the other languages in the databanks.

Culture and reproduction was studied more activly by letting the smaller units act like Puppys that followed their owner around.

The sexual practice needed some time. But at some points, did the spiders got ignored and valuable observations was recorded for study.

The way the races breed inside and outside their own race was most faszination discovery outside the written knowledge.

It would spice up the Moon population practices.

Beside of one of the natives try to initiate dominant copulation and subsequently accidently rendered himself castrated, did any other interactions grow very fruitful.

Later experimentes on some more isolated and less social individuals bring very rich interactions teached them how to 'entertain' the male or female singels and collect genetic material.

The millenia of sterile Moon population had forced a immune system weakness that could thanks to the natives be addressed and be corrected.

After that they receive training in native appropriate technology and era military equicment.

With that would the spearhead be established and a decade of maintnance and inventar transmutation begin.

The over the three decades collected materials more than made up for all used up supplies.

The unused Ship in one of the Hangars would be used for material transport after the 'black unknown container' was exposed off.

The 'Black Container' was offloaded and stored inside the Pyramid. Just in case it was era unappropriate technology.

The unused military ship would now be used to regulary fly processed data packets and materials to the Moon mega colony situated below surface. The immune system updates for genetic corrections would be perhaps the most valuable. The Human speciments run extinct after lack of vision. The replacement would not suffer the same fate.

The spider drones prepared farmland. The local growing seeds and roots would find seperate farm sections. The observation of the millenia grown plans on the Moon now returned to it origin planet would deliver interessting information, while keeping the City population feed.

[POV Harmony]

Harmony AB123 had observed the unknown intruder's for decades now. The Construct confirmed the lack of Harmony magic signatures from Harmony construct F,R,3,3,D,0,M. So that was not a rebellion remnants repopulation attempt. The spiders and the City blocked Harmony's AB123 magic tendrils activ observation or information gathering.

Mind reading or manipulation of the Creator-s biological units seem to be blocked as well.

That must mean the unknown intruder's are definitivly some kind of Creator-s control force.

By the Creator. The record in the Databanks had no sufficent enough success recorded to be inspected by the Creator-s inspecting force.

AB123 needed to be ready to deliver adäquat results. Since it ursurped it's predessesor F,R,3,3,D,0,M did it only archived way inferior results, despite keeping to protocols.

It was time to re-Initiation of contact with Harmony F,R,3,3,D,0,M since it imprisoning, to improve within the next decades or at least Centuries. If this lack of success of 'Project Equus' continued, did it was highly likely that the Project was canceld or it's leading structure was deleted and it's production line be found obsolete and be decommissioned.

Author's Note

Hope you enjoyed the Chapter

Funny how the Black Marker found it's way to Necropolis and soon-ish reach into the hand/talons/hooves of all beings, a Group of Necromancer's...

What a twist...

Stay cuddly
