Nobody *wants* to do that, but sometimes the automaton grabs the power
anyway. Looks like Spanker 4 went hunting, conveniently off panel. 8{D>
I can see it's time to give some more background on Engines. That'll
accompany the next episode (which gets publicized this weekend). Links
when I do that. But for now...
Starting no later than the 1980s, the Engines got into the habit of
appearing every eight years or so. The last time they were actually
seen before 2005 was in 1996, when Wyatt Ferguson and *Zenobia* teamed
up but couldn't hold on to them. The appearance of 2004 got screwed up
when evil mages attacked in 2003; the Engines got scattered throughout
Middle Eastern ancient history, and just made things strange. The
medieval Spanker 3 fizzled out in the Middle East, so Spanker 4 went
hunting for power objects in the Middle East... guess what he found!
