"The snare works on living creatures only at present," Madame Airi stated. "With your investment I believe I could expand the capability considerably. For instance, beside adding the ability of easily snaring inanimate objects I could expand its use to function more as a doorway or portal. It might be used to go to any point in time and space and return." "And this magnificent creature suspended in the aether flux? From whence has she been snared?" Prince Eduardo eagerly inquired. Madame Airi glanced at the rugged woman suspended between the plates of the Time Snare. "She is a Hyperborean warrior taken from her own time 3,000 years in the past. I am of the opinion she is Royalty." "She is healthy and responsive if released from the flux?" the Prince asked. "Oh, yes. I am disinclined to release her until we bring forth adequate methods to subdue her. She is unlikely to respond positively to her novel situation here in New Babbage." The little Japanese woman bowed very slightly and continued. "Now, the matter of your patronage; how much can I expect from you to continue my research, Prince Eduardo?" Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered with Poser 13.1.518 using the Superfly Cycles X rendering engine. Some post work was accomplished with Superfly and a tad more in Photoshop. Lighting is entirely provided by emissive material using in the lamps and the Time Snare. Madame Airi Tanaka is based upon La Femme 2, Prince Eduardo upon L'Homme, the Hyperborean and one of the minions on V4 and the two male minions on M4. The setting is cobbled together from bits and bobs mostly by Cybertenko and Blue Tree Studio with a bit from Davo at Renderotica. Scripts by Ken1171_Designs and materials by VinceBagna were indispensible aids in getting the look I wanted.
