A conception began to take shape, to elevate the race into an entirely new form of Life.
A Mechanical Civilization that existed for conquest alone—more efficient, more pure.
It named this conception: Sublimation.
The scale of war escalated in step with the advance of civilization; every conquest now carried a precise purpose.
Collect data, test new weapons, absorb the unique Technology of native civilizations.
Even capture powerful individuals and conduct Decomposition at the genetic and Energy levels—everything accumulating capital for the final "Sublimation."
Its own form also began to change, no longer confined to its original structure.
It began to exploit the rare Spiritual Resources of the Asola World to upgrade its Life form, fusing special spiritual material with precision machinery.
It even started attempting to digitize-upload the consciousness of the Pillar Clan's members, forging for them more formidable smelted mechanical bodies.
