Engineers (2)

In the modern age, many bemoan the lack of ornamentation found in the classical architecture of the Legion. For us, it is a luxury. For our ancestors, a necessity. The scarcity of Arcanist enclaves and the isolation of many settlements made education difficult. Common written language was not widely distributed or taught until the beginning of the Legion Victorious era. The ornate decoration conveyed to the eyes of our forebears much of the information a printed book would today.

Arden Vassa (2)

The feats of design and engineering attributed to Arden Vassa are too improbable to be believed. Are we to accept that one man invented the javelin while hiding in a cave somewhere in the Bastion wilderness? It seems unlikely that the same person could have designed the walls of Antium and the gardens of the Academy, and yet both are attributed to Vassa. It is far more likely Arden Vassa was a group of Arcanists and Engineers whose work has been misattributed.

I, Governor Tanner, do hereby approve the commencement of the extension of Fort Tarsis. With this radio tower, the Emperor gives his Sentinels leave to patrol and coordinate the building of a new dawn for Fort Tarsis and the new people flooding in every day to take part in the exciting work here in Honor Valley.

First Refuge (District) (2)

I’m sorry to say that I think we should halt the extension of Fort Tarsis to First Refuge until these strange creatures can be dealt with, which Freelancer Gurney assures me will be a week at most. But rest assured, we will finish the project on time and on budget.

The Bane Engine (1)
See Cortex Entry: The Bane Engine (1) for More Details
There appears to be no end to these Shaper ruins. Long after we should've left the face of the mountain, the ruins continue. It's as though the Shapers found a way to extend space in one location, but not in adjacent locations. Another theory suggests there is a gate somewhere in the ruins that teleports travelers to a new location without them knowing it.
