I cracked 3000 words on the Clockwork Necromancer story last night...

And have now realized that the motivation for my villain creatures is essentially lame. So that's awesome.

Basically, I have dark and light aetheric entities, and my villagers think the light ones are the good guys. They're not, of course, but what do they want?

...nevermind, I just figured it out. This is why I do these blog posts when I get stuck. It tends to shake things loose in my head.
