There was one other idea that Ves had in mind.
It was such an outlandish one that he did not dare to share it with Ketis.
The idea was simple. Although the technical properties of the wooden constructs were not too strong and impressive, they were mainly limited due to the suboptimal circumstances of their creation.
The Emperor Tree did not have access to top materials. It knew nothing about systematic mech design. It lacked the most fundamental understanding of the concepts behind mechs.
What if a real mech designer took this method and designed a proper 'wooden mech'?
Was it possible for Ves to collaborate with the Emperor Tree or use it as an organic mech production facility to create all kinds of strange and exotic wooden constructs that could be piloted like conventional mechs?
Ves grew incredibly curious about this possibility!
