The material was made to last a hundred years and more. It was made to exist and help and cater to our omnivore needs.

I'll weave myself something that will last longer than a day. Use snippets to mend the broken, the old, the useless. Together, won't these second-hand beings work well?

One that is meant to last a hundred years and more.
