After more futile attempts of scrambling up the mountain, Gadget found he had actually made negative progress, and was back where he started. So Whir took the situation somewhat into his own, er, grappling claw.
He started carefully pulling a bunch of materials out of the backpack, some with Gadget's help, and setting them on the platform. After seeing the materials, Gadget figured it out and started assembling. What came to be was an interesting device. Four arms with sharp pikes at the ends came from a box that could be worn like the backpack, and two obligatory LEDs were also on pivotal points. Still, it lacked a power source. Gadget donned the contraption, and Gadget focused. Strangely enough, he felt he had to focus harder than usual, but eventually the device managed to spring to life. And Gadget fell unconcious.
The new being picked itself up with Gadget still attached.
"...Master? Master, are you all right?"
Even Whir was visibly confused. It wasn't a particularly complex being, and it wasn't any large than some of the contraptions he had given life to before, yet the force of giving it's soul managed to completely knock him out. There was something about this new world.
"...this can't be good. Hey, uh..." Whir struggled to come up with a name, "Lloyd? Yeah, I suppose. Lloyd, you need to start climbing up. Gadget will be okay eventually I hope but we need to get higher up. Think you can scale this place?"
'Lloyd' rotated the LEDs that acted as it's eyes to look up. It looked doable, and he stabbed the sharp pikes into the mountain to climb up, ascending at the very least, quicker than Gadget was able to on his own. Whir followed, concerned about his creator.
Total Distance Climbed: 9m
