Project 016

Name: Living Stone

Purpose: To see if I can create life

The [living things] around me made me curious. They are like me in some ways, but different in a lot of others. Some stand on two legs like me, while others stand on four, six, or more. Some have hard skin, but my skin is soft. I want to see if I can make a [living thing].

I will use stone to make my [living thing]. It's everywhere and easy to get. The [living things] have [aether] like me, so I will use that. This stone will work as the body. I like the ones with four legs, so I'll give it four legs. Two stones, one small and one long, will make a leg. Tie them at an angle with [aether] so that they remain stable.

There. Now to tie each leg to the body. No, that's too close. Make them the same distance apart. Done.

...

Hmm. It works, but it's too boring. The [living things] don't have a top like me. I'll give this my top.

Add a stone in the on top of the body. Tie it to the body, but not too tight. I want it to turn all the way around. Then I'll add a larger stone on top. This will be for the arms and head. Now it looks more interesting.

Three stones for the arms this time, I want the arms to have more movement. This stone's small, but sturdy. I will use it for the base. A longer stone is attached, tie it tight with [aether]. I will use a slightly bigger stone last for reach. Tie it at a slight angle, almost straight. Then repeat.

Attach arms to the chest, one on each side. Oh. It cannot grab. That's okay, I'll add these tiny stones to the arms. Three for each.

Now the easiest part. Grab one stone for the neck and tie it to the top of the chest. Tight enough to stay on, but loose enough to turn. This large stone will work for the head. Tie it all with [aether] and we're done.

Hello new one. I am-

Oh. You can't see? Hmm. I have an idea. Please stand still for a moment. I will give you sight.
