Something that is discussed often in Pre-(H)istory, although I cannot entirely verify if it ever occured or not, was the creation of "Artificial Intelligence".
We do know that During the Golden Age something very like them were created, by our lost God.
"Constructs". The earliest Constructs are talked about as unstoppable warriors, easily defeating any enemies that would challenge our God.
However something occured and they were locked away, and later on destroyed when they turned against their Creator.
Still, some Constructs are occasionally dug up or found wandering in the inner reaches of the continent. They ARE capable of speech and thought, although often times they get stuck in thought loops.
My question is, are they true intelligences? Or simply an imitation? Do they count among the life She made?
