Hurgir/Urgir

These are two different, but related, devices. They are Deltiri make, and the names are in common Deltir. Smaller-sized versions of both devices are semi-sentient, and equipped with legs tipped with claws so that the device may cling to the surface upon which it works, and adjust its positioning for maximum efficiency. Large versions are typically on wheels or treads, have cabs, and are Deltiri-driven.

• Hurgir
• Urgir

Hurgir

The hurgir is an excavation device, using various fields to adjust the condition of the material being excavated. In some cases, the hurgir removes it, and in others, it simply 'shoves' it to the side, compressing it into the walls of the excavated tunnel. The application of the fields causes a soft blue glow to form between the excavation face of the device and the material being excavated. They are manufactured in every size from pocket-sized up to huge machines that can remove mountains.

Urgir

The urgir is the inverse device from the hurgir. In the cases where the hurgir has simply compressed the excavated matter into the wall of the tunnel, the urgir can decompress it, then smooth over the surface, digitally mapping the adjacent surface and replicating it. This device's field creates a soft green glow between the decompression surface of the device and the material being decompressed. Like the hurgir, it is manufactured in almost every size, though there has been no attempt by the Deltiri to replace a mountain once it has been removed.
