How to Animate Stone

How to Animate Stone
By Cindreus Oraenica

[The entire work is in Arthosian, there are Dovish annotations in the margins]
 * The will of rock and earth is surely no more neutral than that of the body of a living creature. The mind imposes its will upon the body, therefore the body itself does not have a will of its own. Why then can't living creatures be split between the will of their mind and that of the Onion Man?
 * Is this so called "host matter" aware of its change of will?
 * I believe I have enough if the required material to animate an object the size of my fist.
 * The golem I fabricated of a potato seems interested in traveling eastward as well. It is a shame that the author was not able to explain why.
 * I wonder if this method can be used to animate a corpse.
