Rise and Rise Again
[member="Preliat Mantis"] was a savage, vicious war monger who had seen more despair than most planetary systems have happen in their goldilocks zones. To heal his heart, the woman wanted to start with his leg. The crude prosthetic put flashes of pain on his face and a limp to his step. He'd been a barrel of anger and a pit of unending rage. . . But Aditya loved him. Love wasn't a deniable thing, nor was it simply given by the once broken hearted widow. It was a tangible collection of wires and sprockets thrumming through her mind and into a set of blueprints she worked furiously on via her 3D holovisual CAD program. The program's mobile unit was set up on the vast stone steppes of [member="Ginnie Ordo"]'s Cathedral Forge, propped up high enough that the pregnant woman didn't have to do much leaning down.
Not that her belly distended far enough for more than perhaps Preliat to notice. She wiped the corner of her mouth and sipped root tea cooked by the little Mando'ade beskar smith from her cooking fire adjoined to the roaring forge.
The warmth of the forge slicked across the closest half of Aditya's body, she continued to try and turn round once in a while to avoid the shivers. Ziost wasn't the warmest place in the universe for the Epicanthix woman. "Preliat, you wanted Beskar plating on your leg, right? How heavy is that going to be, Ginnie? I think my measurements are off on the servo motor power sources. I want Preliat to be able to run with the thing in full tilt without putting too much pressure on his hip. Cyare, can you come look at this, please?" She called to Preliat, trying her best to pronounce the Mando'a correct.
From the way Ginnie Ordo sniffed, Aditya figured she got it wrong.
