I've always known that Science can build some terrible weapons, but never have I been more convinced that's not its proper use.
The flying machines, the trains without rails, and the automotons looked so - so dazzling and amazing when I first saw them. Then they dropped bombs, or opened fire. So many bodies... and the smell...
Maybe when the rail wars are over the Wierd Science community can finally settle down and start inventing useful things again. Like machines to help build bridges and roads for the steam wagons. Or a better way to put up signage in the maze. I've only been on two boat rides, and the captain keeps getting lost. (On a side note, the Maze Dragon was extremely interesting. Well worth the trip.)
Better yet - science needs to find a way to grow filling food in the Maze. Maybe there is too much ghost rock in the soil, but whatever the problem, the taste of everything is off here. Even the meat. Perhaps the cows and pigs are affected by the weak crops...
The town of Progress was enjoyable. Necessity is the mother of invention, and there is much needed out here on the coast. I'm tempted to come back, but for now we are on the road to Shannonsburg, to catch another train. It'll be a long horse ride, and then a long train ride to Shan Fan. I'm glad to be away from Lost Angels and the war.
