[ His fingers, after all, were clean. The scars on his face are the only sign of such a hard life, his fingers are without calluses, and any scars or nicks are long faded. Even still, there's something in the tone of "manual labor" that speaks truth. He had, after all, grown up in the mines deep within the fissures, but he was hardly sharing. ]
But I think finding the appropriate supplies to produce such things would be difficult. Items don't last long here -- not without Soul Forging -- and I'm not precisely keen on building a factory on the backs of the captured dead.
[ Well. Okay, he was, but... Without Shimmer's formula, did it matter? Certainly not enough that he wouldn't take the social points for having a line he wouldn't cross. ]
As you've seen, I've been collecting information. It's much more valuable than anything we can produce.
