[There's nothing odd about a spear being referred to as Dan Heng's companion; sometimes, objects of metal have great sentimental value, whether they are beautiful weapons or a robot assistant. His gloved fingers trace the design, marveling at the finesse required to carve this.
Taryon idly listens to Dan Heng speak of this brilliant friend, but at hearing of him in past tense, that he was a short-lived human. He was an artificer, albeit one that didn't focus often on infusions, but all that skill was transferred to building automatons.
He rests the spear on the table.] This...Yingxing...he sounds like someone I'd like to work with. We could have taught each other something. I'd like to know more about those automatons that don't run on magic.
[Robots, he means. He understands the basics of the roombas, but he's more familiar with their enchantments than with the electronics that power and command them.]
I'll do what I can to honor this gift from your friend. [He turns to face Dan Hent, mind already racing with the clear request he's been given.] So, with retriving it, the power of the spell depends on how heavy the spear is. Something that's lightweight would be easy, but this is a pretty hefty weapon. [There are many spells he can think of that could help: telekinesis, magnetism, but that would also depend on Dan Heng's mental abilities.] What if we had some sort of bracer that would call the spear back? So it has the same target every time instead of having to adjust to wherever you want to summon it?
