The Larkinsons finally completed their final checks.
The second trial had begun.
The scenery had changed significantly since last time.
Since the consultants from the Ritualist Department had begun to 'advise' the Larkinsons, the newcomers made many proposals.
This was why they especially converted an experimental chamber into a zero-g vacuum environment with a dark, starry backdrop.
The illusion was almost convincing to most people's eyes. The artificial Incubator truly looked as if it was floating in deep space.
The Incubator also looked a lot more disturbing than the initial design.
Although it was completely mechanical, the Larkinson mech designers simulated the appearance of an organic construct by processing the materials in special ways.
This meant that any layman who glanced at this down-scaled imitation would probably be fooled into thinking that it was an actual organic creation!
