 * [ 0 ] The crumpled object on the plinth is an empty sack of leathery skin. Its head is featureless but for a mouth and two ragged holes where eyes should be.\n\nThe spirit places four nearly-labelled vessels beside the skin. Each contains a soul. The one you select will determine what your companion becomes.\n\nAs you consider your choice, the spirit stares at you. It could be an illusion, but their facial features appear to morph in the flickering light from the furnace.
 * [ 10 ] Your Companion is still no more than wet skin, one limb spilling off the plinth and dripping onto the floor. Its fingers convulse with the first traces of life.\n\nThe spirit hauls an enormous book off a shelf. With their oddly elastic fingers, they leaf through the brittle pages to a chart detailing the relationship between characteristics and substances. Most rows are illegible, obscured beneath furious scribbles of red ink. Only two remain.
 * [ 20 ] Your Companion is almost fully formed, missing only its eyes. The spirit consults the tome once more, stopping at a page listing suitable materials. Frantic scribbles warn you away from all but two suggestions. \n\nThough they are not dangerous enough to prohibit, these items will nevertheless give your Companion a strong influence over all they encounter.
 * [ 25 ] The spirit caresses your Companion's face, quivering with emotion. Milky tears spill over their cheeks and run into the Companion's mouth.\n\nThe Companion's leathery lips twitch, and they turn their head to you, ignoring the spirit. Stiffly at first, but with gradually more fluid movements, they sit upright upon the plinth, then step down onto the floor of the chamber. \"I look forward to working for you,\" they say in a monotone voice."
 * [ 30 ] There is nothing more you can do in this chamber.

 * [ 0 ] You do not express your desire aloud, so the white-robed spirit who appears to float towards you must have caught the movement of your head as you surveyed the Forge for a suitable chamber.\n\nTheir robes appear almost liquid as they ripple through the Forge towards a filigreed brass door, warm to the touch. The heat that engulfs you on the other side makes your skin prickle and breath catch. \n\nYou are inside a tiny chamber, immaculately clean despite the smoke billowing from the furnace set into one wall. At the centre is a stone plinth bearing a crumpled object six feet in length.\n
 * [ 5 ] Once again, the spirit floats towards you. Their white robes appear almost liquid as they ripple through the warm air of the Forge towards a filigreed brass door, warm to the touch. The heat that engulfs you on the other side makes your skin prickle and breath catch. \n\nYou are back inside the tiny chamber, immaculately clean despite the smoke billowing from the furnace set into one wall. At the centre of the chamber is a stone plinth bearing a crumpled object six feet in length.\n
 * [ 10 ] Once again, the heat that engulfs you as you open the filigreed door makes your skin prickle and breath catch. \n\nYou are back in the tiny immaculate chamber. Smoke billows from the furnace set into one wall. At the centre of the chamber is a stone plinth bearing your unfinished companion.\n
 * [ 20 ] Once again, the heat that engulfs you as you open the filigreed door makes your skin prickle and breath catch. \n\nYou are back in the tiny immaculate chamber. Smoke billows from the furnace set into one wall. At the centre of the chamber is a stone plinth bearing your companion, complete but for the torn holes where its eyes should be.
