The heat of the continent was unforgiving. I wondered how much time we would spend in the place. Water, despite being scarce in the area was sourced so I won't worry about the supply. The problem was the boredom, the people were too conservative and killing me.
I was in the body, of another person for years. If I were in a new body, I thought that it would make things better for me, at least not get stuck in some random nobody's body.
Reading the books of the occult and scientific papers on biology and human anatomy. It made me think of the idea of making a homunculus. A clone that would host my body, but making one from scratch was out of the question.
I had the work done with my trusted associates and scientist friends. They were working nonstop on the project. Pictures and documents were sent to me about the results, and so far I was satisfied with their efforts.
