Part 1 of an AI adaptation of H.G. Wells's short story "The Cone" (1895). A furnace manager sits down with his wife and the man he suspects, and then asks him to come see the works. This is a first attempt and it's rough, but I wanted to see how far I could get with these tools. Part 2 will follow the walk through the ironworks.
