By creating even a partially functioning mind, it would be possible to perform pioneering medical research, perhaps even modify and repair biological brains. Then there would be the other applications, ones that could see great intelligence being used in trade, industry, engineering, and of course, war. What greater weapon could there be than giving a weapon intelligence above and beyond that of the warrior wielding it? Even the greatest computer models have failed to match the intricacy and abilities of that one organ. The Biomechs worked around the issue by growing or harvesting brains, and modifying or training them for other tasks. This became apparent during the seizure of their technology in the latter phase of the Great Uprising. Few expected to find such advances deep in the recesses of space, a remnant of a forgotten age where intelligent life reached its pinnacle, and then vanished just as quickly, to leave nothing but the mysteries and myths of the ancient Trusska.
