The tunnel becomes noticably hotter as the group turns the corner and a dull red glow suffuses the area. The main shaft must be just ahead. Unfortunately, that is not the only thing ahead! In the tunnel, backlit by the reddish light from the main shaft is a group of three machine servitors scuttling about, seemingly at random!
"... what?" Lilly asks, slowing as the servitors come into view. Her grip on her axe tightens, and she stares at the things. "Those do not belong here. Right?" she asks, looking to Lucasiel.
Angus cocks an eyebrow as he stops, pistol raised a bot as he looks down at Mister and beckons the golem closer. "I....don't think so no, and I don't think they are the only ones." He mutters softly as he holsters his pistol and reaches down to his belt. Working with the leather ties he removes a set of metal knuckle covers, fitting them on and clenching his hands into fists to make sure they are on right. "Lets make sure we don't get caught by surprise."
Lucasiel keeps her shield raised as she continues along in the front, adjusting her grip on the haft of her battle axe as she eyes the servitors over from behind her helm. "I am not sure why they are down here, no... This isn't a creator ruin, is it? Sure doesn't look like it, and I'm tired of seeing them all over the place! Let's try to walk by them if we can. No need for a fight."
Rainer gets up on his tiptoes when those ahead of him pause, tilting this way and that to see what all the fuss is about. "Hey, you never know, maybe this cave connects to some old, buried Creator place. We'll soon see, right?" He ducks and weaves around the others, moving out ahead with little concern for the servitors. "They're probably just scoutin' the place to see what all the ruckus is, same as us."
Kalt frowns and readies her staff, tapping it against her hands as she looks at the servitors. "... Rainer, don't go bein' foolish now, m'guessin' their a bit crazy an' all from how their movin', an' gettin' cut up ain't gonna help us none." The Vixen calling out as she tries to stick to Lucasiels side.
Erratic as the three machines are, they react with very clear purpose as the party draws near! All three scuttle forward, lightning arching between their metalic mandibles, striking out at Angus, Rainer and Kalt!
Lilly turns as the servitors head for her allies, holding back for a moment as they zip past, lining up her attack. She raises her axe and then silently surges in from behind the servitors, flanking them and swinging her weapon in a wide cleaving arc.
Angus stumbles back as one of them comes right for him, stepping out of the way of it's little claws as he goes into a fighting stance before he realizes Lilly is coming in for the kill. He keeps Mister back as well, letting Lilly handle it as he turns to find another assailant he might be able to assist with, a calm look in his eye as he surveys the fight.
Lucasiel does her best to be sneaky! But then those pesky servitors start going for her allies, and it'd be remiss of her to let that pass! So, she whirls around and brings her axe up, letting the momentum follow through as she tries to bring the metal mass down towards a servitor in a heavy chop.
"'Ey now!" You're a all-star. Get your game on, get... paid! Rainer limbos out of the way of a bolt of lightning. Don't question it. When he swings back upright he's got his swords drawn, and he aims the business end of one at the trio of bots, brows narrowed and a challenging half-smirk on his muzzle. "You wanna get busted down to scrap, you picked a fight with the right guys!" Only then does he take the time to cast a smile aside to Kalt, adding, "Hey, how was I supposed to know they were the feisty sort?"
Kalt doesn't wait or hesitate once they show aggitation, the Vixen dropping low as she quickly manages to pull off the splits as the lightning flies over her head! A slight scoff is an answer to rainer, before she curls and rolls forward, springing into a jump at the end of her roll as she goes to bring the metal tipped end of her staff down on the offending servitor!
Lilly's slicing axe crushes one of the three servitors into a sparking pile of scrap and Lucasiel follows up with more of the same and Kalt downs the third! It is obvious that they were not really made for combat! They certainly can't be sentries. Once again, the party is assaulted by the blast of that horrible screeching cry! Just ahead, the tunnel to the central shaft looms.
Lilly twists at that horrible sounding screech, tense and at the ready. Once it fades, she begins moving down the tunnel again, steps carefully placed for stealth.
Angus flicks his ears as he watchs the Servitors go down, before he flinches at the screech again, putting a finger in his ear and wiggling it. "When we find this thing, lets muzzle it." He murmurs as he stands back up and turns around again, hands on his pistols as he starts walking forward with Mister on his heels.
Lucasiel flashes a little grin as the servitors fall under their combined efforts. "Well, that takes care of tha-" She cuts off again, wincing at the sound of the screech. "Gah. What do you think that is? Some kind of... Awful machine?" She shakes it off and shoulders her axe as she starts off towards the shaft, taking the lead once more.
Rainer turns his head in the... vague direction of the noise, admittedly difficult to ascertain with it bouncing off every single wall. Aside from flattening his ears for the duration of the screech, it seems to be bothering him less and less. "Alright, admitting: the two Small Clanners in a leaf costume theory is sounding a -little- thin at the moment." Perking right up, he begins to strut onwards, full speed! "Still, nothing for it but to see with our own eyes, right?"
"It ain't probably nuttin' that's gonna be showin' nice for us an' all." The Vixen's tail flicking as she sighs, Kalt's gaze flicking amongst everyone there before Rainer just begins to move forward full speed again, the vixen groaning as she sets her staff on her back and dashes after him! "Oi! Don't go gettin' stuck up you git!"
The tunnel opens up to reveal a wide ledge jutting out over the main shaft of the volcano! The heat is almost unbearable this far down, nearly level with the flowing lava at the bottom. But just ahead, at the edge of the wide ledge are two very strange things. One is a large, black, blocky structure, broken and spilling bits and pieces of scrap and swarming with servitor golems. The other is a reptile the size of a house, scrabbling and scratching at the wrecked structure. As the group watches, the creature opens its jaws wide and lets loose with that shrieking roar that brought the party down here!
Lilly groans as the heat gets even worse, rubbing at her forehead with her hand before she shakes her head and resolves to tough it out. She moves along the tunnel, axe held loosely in her hand... then stops, and stares at the giant beast. "... what?" she says, echoing her earlier self. "Huh. I wonder what it's trying to eat there."
