[ A larger weapon? As far as he is aware, Kenos can't support that kind of technology. The one he is crafting is the result of paring down his ornate wishes and designs to suit the degree of weaponry-and-magic available to them. Only one individual might be able to counter with a weapon design of their own, and without being told to do it by Yima, Amos Burton will never. He's never going to have an original desire or thought that was not fed to him like ripe grapes, like a doting owner feeding their pet under the table. ]
The time I have spent, the experience and power of the individuals involved and the unique labors I have undergone are why this even exists in the first place. Highstorm, and their Shard-bearers, could never imitate it nor improve upon it. And because I am who I am, I would take care to monitor for it. So, let me reassure you — this will not become an arms race between cities and Factions. This will be a retaliatory blow, and not an opening one. An answer to whatever action they take to hurt us.
