A dark back street, not the place one would expect an expo of sorts to be going on. But that is exactly what is happening. A cheetah goes about talking to on lookers, though they are few, with a few other felines about. They all have the same dark purple and black garbs on, almost like.. a coat of sorts. Though it is long and doesn't seem to be just for the weather. "Welcome, welcome, now. We are here to do what your priest would not, to truly understand these wonderful.. things." He says as he jestures to the tables holding boxes. In each glass box is a piece of crator tech! "Join with us, and we will endever to explain them to you too."
Sierra looks around as she approaches the group, her golem following close behind. It's almost like she doesn't trust these sorts and the big hulking mechanical monster with a meathook is her way of alleviating those concerns. Stepping towards them, a quick gesture causes the Golem to hang back a bit as she says, "What's the catch then?" She asks while approaching
Bite move into theh back street, the rumors having caught her attention, and tilts her head at the claims. The dress is pretty neat she decides, she'd have to ask where they got it, but for now she has technology to 'understand' as explained by these... wait. "Sssweeties that's all nice, but maybe you should tell us who you are, and where you got these? I'm not sure your expertise with something so powerful is something I'll trust enough to approach you."
Most of the beings seem to look back to Sierra and Bite as they move up and ask their questions. The cheetah answers "My name is Billy, odd name for a cheetah, no?" He says as he gestures about some more, "And we found these, in the corners of the world, from the deserts to the forests, from the oceans to the great heights of the mountains. We call ourselves Creationists, and we work to understand these items, instead of just use them at some yet unseen 'Creator's will." They explain. "The catch, only one, you must keep our secret, just that, a secret. Join us, and you too can learn." He says with a grand wave of his hand.
Sierra looks at the... cultists. Yeah that's a good enough term for now and says, "Again, what's the catch. A monthly donation of crowns? Buying your way to the top? Praying 42 Times a week to the horizon? There's always more with your sort, funny clothes aside"
Bite tilts her head and nods. "And what purpose do you have beyond understanding them? If I may ask you to demonstrate your prowess at a safe distance, that no one will know you are lying? You are ini a back alley sssweetheart, this isn't a great place to... convert... people to join your cause."
Billy looks at Sierra and smiles and then a smile for Bite as well, "Of course, you have questions, and questions are always good for understanding. But, maybe a different place would be a good idea." He looks about and says, "Ok folks, the general show is over for now, please pack up and head out, we will be here again soon!" He announces. Most of the general folk do leave, but two, a bat and a dalphan, stay around as well, "Oh are you two interested as well? Well come down come down, and all will get to see, but I do say one thing, no word of this leaves our little abode, none, understand?" All the creator items are packed up by the felines, and taken into an underground passage, unlocked and openned by Billy, hidden under one of the tables. "Enter, and your questions will all be answered."
Sierra pose looks at the talky one and says, "Yeah yeah, lips sealed. This goes sideways and I'm letting Ripjack drag you through the streets though, yeah?" She looks to Bite and shrugs for a moment before adding, "You trust them in the slightest really? Might be better to wander off, getting that odd vibe and all"
Bite squints and nudges Sierra as she moves to catch up, double checking her equipment as she whispers something to her, then nods and giggles. "Oh of course I trust them sssweetie, why would they lie to two pretty girls and take them down into their hidden abode?" she hisses and looks to the other two who stayed, eyeing them before proceeding behind theh lioness should they move forward. She has no intention of leaving their side in the company of an untold number of shadowy felines.
The door wide open, and the artifacts transfered, Billy ushers everyone down, "Come in come in, quickly now." The bat and Dolphin move in quickly enough while Billy holds the door looking to Bite and Sierra, "The secrets won't wait forever, but you are welcome all the same." He says holding the door open for a time to let his guests in.
Sierra glances over to Bite, shrugs and whistles, leading her golem along with her as they enter. The golem almost seems to watch Billy as it passes with it's heavy footsteps. Sierra is trying to be subtle about it, relying instead on the dark glasses she wears, but she still doesn't trust them at all.
Bite follows the golem and feline inside, double checking herself and proceeding inside to see the "secrets" they have.
Below and inside, torches light the large room. It is big enough to house many Heavy Clan beings but the lighting is fairly good from the many touches and overhead lamps. "Welcome one and all" Billy says as he claps his hands. From doors in the outer walls come four felines, a panther, a lion, an Australian Mist, and a tiger. In total, there are 6 doors. "Now, someone asked what it would take to be in our wonderful organization. Only a thirst for knowledge and the ability to look past some.... divine words from unknowable creatures that those with smaller minds would call 'Creators'. That, and an oath to keep secret what we have here." He says, "And someone else asked for a demonstration I believe! Perhaps this will do?" He walks to a door and goes through, the four others keeping an eye on things. Shortly he returns with a small pile of what looks like srap Creator Steel. However, with a push here, and a twist there, an interesting little mechanoid, much like a golem comes to life! "Behold! A defender. It may have been forged by these 'Creators' but we can control them now, their secrets becoming ours, to use as we see fit. Not at some whims of far off beings!"
Sierra looks at the little scrap.. golem. She's creative, but lazy. "If your organization is so... high up, why are you working in the back alley of Mange Square then? I'm sure there are, issues of course. But, I would think if you could use them to their full extent, you'd be able to at least hold your own and be a little less. Shady." She then shrugs and steps back, taking a moment to check a joint on her golem.
Bite tilts her head and giggles. "Sssweetie I'm pretty sure... that's not that impressive." she hisses and shakes her head, looking at the 'defender'. "I'm pretty sure I saw something called a defender moving alongside that one gifted." She sways a bit in place and hisses "What else have you got?"
