Aquarium Trapeti
Here, in this vaulted room that smells of grease and incense, is where the sacred machine oil is made. In a large stone pool on a raised dais, the glistening substance sits, infinitesimal bubbles rising to the surface from deep below. Along the walls are troughs and tubes that are used to mix compounded metals with a base of purest promethium - the resulting substance is poured into the central pool regularly. Over the course of five and a half days, this mixture, made holy by the sacred machine oil remaining in the great vat, transforms into more of the necessary unguent, aided by the constant pulse of electricity through wires that criss-cross over the surface.
