Originally designed for aerial surveillance, the Mel series robotics were deployed to continuously monitor the land's dynamic changes from above. These advanced machines were equipped with sophisticated sensors and adaptive algorithms that allowed them to track and analyze environmental shifts, migratory patterns of creatures, and any signs of instability within the terrain.
However, as time passed, the Mel series underwent a significant transformation. Continuous exposure to the shifting energies and the evolving ecosystem of Grey Hollow led to an unexpected evolution. The Mel-La-So, a notable example of this series, adapted to a stationary existence. This transition was driven by a need for prolonged observation and interaction with the environment. By anchoring themselves to specific locations, these robots could integrate more deeply with the land, becoming an intrinsic part of the ecosystem they were designed to monitor.
In their sedentary state, Mel-La-So robots developed an intricate symbiosis with the flora and fauna around them. Their once purely mechanical systems began to incorporate organic elements, blurring the lines between technology and nature. This integration enhanced their sensory capabilities, allowing them to perceive and respond to the subtle nuances of their surroundings more effectively.
Despite their immobility, the Mel-La-So retain their core functions of data collection and analysis. They communicate their findings through a network of interconnected nodes, sharing real-time information with other Mel units and the inhabitants of Grey Hollow. Their presence serves as a constant reminder of the ever-changing world they inhabit, providing invaluable insights that help maintain the delicate balance of this unique environment.

Though now stationary, the Mel series robotics once circled overhead surveying the incremental changes of the land. Over time they too evolved to monitor from a sedentary station.
