So many good descriptions.. I like crumpled into a corner, reminds me of wadded up pages, and you bring that back at the end with the new weapon, words. The modern technology must be a computer, rather than the steampunk legends he was tinkering with. Then there is the image of a creator with a similar visage in his creation, a biblical reference, thrown together with riding off into the sunset. This is quite a morsel to swallow!
At first glance, I assumed this would be just a jumbled or rambling wall of words (ie no line breaks or new paragraphs), which seems to be a trap alot of new ficliteers fall into….but… the wonderful discriptions were a delight to read, and made this enjoyable to read.
