Following this discovery, the building of the [[Ash Twin Project]] began, where probe data would be sent continuously back in time to find the [[Eye of the Universe]]. As an [[Advanced Warp Core|advanced warp core]] was needed to send this data 22 minutes in the past, Poke volunteered to craft this powerful core with Clary and Root.<ref>POKE: I would very much like to craft such a powerful core! More relevantly, I believe the Black Hole Forge crew and I could recreate the basic design.</ref> She did feel strange about recreating Annona's advanced warp core and still missed her old mentor deeply.<ref>POKE: I feel strange, trying to recreate Annona’s warp core without him. At times, it still feels strange to no longer be his (very young) apprentice, and for the Black Hole Forge to be in my care and not his. POKE: Hypothesis: This will always feel strange. Even though my time with him was short, I miss my old mentor, and deeply.</ref>

Besides building the advanced warp core, Poke also built the warp cores for the [[Ash Twin Towers|warp towers]] on [[Ash Twin]] which would connect the planet to all locations which were critical for the Ash Twin Project.<ref>ROOT: What if we used warp towers (like the one we have on the White Hole Station) to connect Ash Twin directly to each critical location? CLARY: Poke, Root, and I can begin work on this immediately in the Black Hole Forge (this will keep us busy!).</ref> Poke explained the warp tower alignment angle and alignment points to the other Nomai, as well as explaining to Root where he should bring the various warp cores.<ref>POKE: We don’t need the alignment angle to be exact; it only needs to be within five degrees of the astral body’s center. POKE: Of note: This gives us a slightly longer warp window. I imagine this window will last roughly several seconds. POKE: As such, any Nomai stepping onto the warp platform during the active window will be immediately warped. We will need to be careful around the platform for the duration of the time it’s active to avoid accidental transportation.</ref><ref>POKE: Of note: Yarrow believes he spotted a flaw in the warp tower designs: namely, that one of the warp towers on Ash Twin will never activate, because its warp receiver will never align overhead. POKE: Does your romantic interest think a warp tower’s alignment point is its receiver? Does he not know that a warp tower always aligns with the center of its corresponding astral body?</ref><ref>ROOT: Where am I taking this first black hole core? (And where am I taking the remaining cores once they’re ready?) POKE: The white hole cores are for the warp receivers. Each of the six receivers are being constructed at different locations, so those deliveries will be a greater pain in your cervical spine. POKE: The tower designs in the High Energy Lab on Ember Twin reveal each receiver's location. Ask Yarrow; he is familiar with them.</ref>
