Able drake's Impirial manifesto : calendar of order : year 62
Able Drake-
When I entered my room It was the icarus equivalent of 3pm so I had a couple hours of time to play around with mana weaver. How I was going to grind it out was by trying to get the stabilizer out of the construct or in laymans terms 'spel', and using the new node in a fun or cool way. The new was a coloration node It pretty much changed the color of the spell however you want for 1 mana extra to the building costs.
First I made the construct more structured by making it a triangle. The next construct was just made without the lines to the stabilizer and the stabilizer node, it just collapsed no explosion just dispersion of mana. When I did it again I looked at the construct and I saw that the mana string wasn't strong enough to keep the nodes together, so in the next one I connected the nodes with 2 strings and it dispersed like last time. Then I did 3&4 strings, and it dispersed. when 5 strings were made and the nodes slowly dispersed over a minute, the nodes were apparently not strong enough.

It seems that the more mana a construct has the more the force that causes the dispersion, which I'll call the 'ambiant mana dispersion law' Increases. And I believe this is what the staibilizer weakens or increases resistence too. so I should decrease the strings but reinforce them.
I first did 4 thicker strings and the nodes dispersed, then 3, then 2, then 1. 'Maybe I'm going the wrong way' I thought. My idea is that I need to refine the nodes instead of the strings, then Mana weaver leveled up. It just lowered mental strain on using mana, which is good for more intricate details in constructs. Which I'll be sure to use for my plans.
First I made the original triangle.
Then I just made another one, but took away the mana from the light node a bit and did that with some trail and error the wasted mana that did nothing in the node was removed. But it still collapsed. Next I did the same with the reciver, but it changed nothing.
Another try was reinforcing specific parts of the strings, like the middle of the string. Because I've seen a trend that the 'mana dispersion law', is that its pulled from inside to outside. The inside being the figurative center of mass.
But after the construct was made, the parts of the strings attached to the nodes got ripped apart.
so instead of making those parts thicker. I made the ends of the strings into two mini strings, and it took less time to break apart.
When I did it with three, it took 10 seconds to fall apart. Which was good .
After an hour of doing this I just took a break and layed down for 5 minutes, healing the strain on the mind.
After that I did 4 mini strings but the time to collapse was 1 second shorter, which is very bad.

Then I had an idea of having two extra strings on the left and right of the original but it didn't change much.
Then I Through trail and error slowly changed the proportions of the strings, thickening the mini strings or thining them. Trying to find the most efficient way of mana usage.
Then I had a revolutionary idea 'What if I make the distance of the nodes smaller?' Having to have less mana in the middle of the string, and overall just less mana because the string was shorter. It sounded great theoretically, but then reality came slaming down. When I shortened the string bit by bit, the time till collapse increased. But then I realized that it wasn't so easy, at half the original line's length. The string became unstable, my theory was that it was not having enough mana to handle the transfer of mana. But first I made the new minimal length my new starting point.
After another 5 minute break I started making new 'inovations'. First I tried to take out 6 mini strings out of the middle of the main string to attach to the first 6 mini strings, and it added another second of time before collapse.
I then added to the current trend making three mini strings that connected the above and below. But then decreased the time to collapse, this wasn't going my way and I had nagotiations to do tommorow. With that blacksmith and carpenter.
I then thought 'I'm going to sleep'

Rimward Bound
Every citizen of the sky-cities of His Majesty's Star-Empire knows that a ship, both sky- and star-, is more then just a few bits of metal. It is the grand sum of it's hull and the crew that sail it. 'Hulls of battle-steel and men to match!' That's what the Navy's recruitment poster's claim at least. Every sailor knows that there is one more component that the city-bound folk ignore at their own peril: the soul of the ship. That it takes both man and hull to make a true ship, and that neither alone serve well or for long. In 8225 Lord Jeffrye Saltonstall the Fourth, Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps, demands semi-automated ships to 'reduce the loss of life among our brave crews', manages to convince the other politicians and bureaucrats to fund them, and gets the Office of Ship Construction to sign off on the ships as structurally sound. Dockyard workers shake their heads at the ships, muttering that they are cursed from birth, even as construction drags on. In 8230 the Explorer, first of her class, is launched. She sets out in 8233 to great fanfare on a trip expected to last six months. Neither she nor her twelve-person crew is ever heard from again. By 8235, the remaining seven Explorers are are commissioned. Lord Saltonstall managed to find crews for six of them but at the cost of mass resignations. The Night Horse, last of the Explorer class, sat in reserve as her sister-ships served well enough despite ill luck and misfortune. The Office of Ship Construction quietly issues notice that no more semi-automated ships are to be built and that all active Semi-automated ships are to be quietly retired and broken up for scrap over the next ten years. The Night Horse, sitting in reserve, is missed due to bureaucratic oversight. In 8250 Lord Ayland Wynstryngham the Eighth assumes the office of Political Lord of the Surveyor's Corps. His first act is to issue notice that no ship is to be without crew nor sit in dock or reserve for longer then required for maintenance and upkeep. The Night Horse, all but forgotten, is quietly brought back into active service. Recruiting a crew for her proves another matter entirely. What poor or desperate fool would willingly sign on to crew, much less command, a cursed ship and spend months or years in deep space? Well, you would, of course. Where else is a kid from the gutters going to find that kind of freedom in the service of His Majesty? A [participant in the Royal Road Writathon challenge] 2021.
