/qst/ - Quests


lAst time on Monster Quest, a newly born Dron found themselves in the middle of fire and death, their hive being slaughtered and razed to the ground. Given a final command by their queen and mother, they set out into the world, changing along the way as they tried to work their way up the brutal food chain of the manawastes.

However, in the middle of their sleep, they were stolen by a mysterious Pale Dron and a Daguran man,to be used as a means of payment for the Pale Dron's escape from the manawastes.

Finding a means to escape, the Dron now finds themselves deep within a colony of corpses, not a single dron being found alive and the Pale Dron, named Snow, being the most likily culprit for the devastation.

Deciding to try to take a bite of your flower now that thing shave calmed down a bit, you brought you little mouth close and chomped down, expecting it to be plant matter. Instead, you felt a sharp pain go through your mandibles as the flower was as hard as rock, and tasted awful.

You hear the sound a million cracks, and quickly hold up the flower to look at the crystal. the Crystal ,which had been perfectly cut before, was cracking and forming fissures. It began to vibrate, starting slow but then building more and more violent as time went on. A low whine began to escape the crystal, which rapidly grew in volume as the shaking grew violent.

Dropping the flower, as instinct demanded, you scuttle away from the shreaking flower, the clicking from down the hall having been drowned out. Suddenly, a flash of light that first pushed away all the color in the world, before engulfing you in light and noise, occurred.

The world is pitch white, and you cannot hear a thing. You bump into something, and briefly see a blur before is disappears. You shake your head, and slowly begin to see onc emore.

As you vision clears, the first thing you see is a large crator where the flower ha dbeen dropped, with thin cuts in the stone that ended with crystal shards in the ground. More crystal shards were impaled into the walls and ceiling.

You stare at the crater, which was only a few feet from where you had been engulfe dby light, and shrugged as best as you could, before scuttling off towards the shattered doors.

You approach the door way, and note that it leads to a large room with an even larger door, with light shining through the cracks of it. It was closed, but it was definitely new, and the metal reminded you of the flowers you saw before.

There are more hollow carapace' strewn around the room, one of them having an odd looking blade stabbed through their cracked head plate.

>Investigate Room
The room shows signs of being melted out of solid stone, the rolls having a smooth but liquid like appearance despite being cool and hard to the touch. In the center, there is a well worn path that leads past the gate and down the hall you just came from.

>Investigate Bodies
The bodies were all facing the gate it seemed, with a few exceptions wher ethey faced to the side. None of them faced the gate. However, al most all of them wer emissing malrge chunks of their back carapace, with no fragments or chunks to be seen on the ground. On one of the corpses, you find an odd collection of strangely shaped metal objects, all held together by a metal ring.

>Investigate Sword
You scuttle over to the sword, and immediately spot something on the handle. Moving closer, you focus on the words. "Property of Lord Ryakdos. Theives will be skinned and dipped in molten bronze."

Looking away from the Daguran symbols, you examine the blade itself. Perfectly smooth, and seeming untouhed by any form of scuff or damage, you see tiny teeth poking from the blades edge, as well as an odd tube near the handle.
>Invest-

"Well well, looks like some's wander a little far from where they're supposed to be."

>>2194032
Standing in the shattered door way. A figure stood holding a red hot pair of tongs and a partially formed clump of Bronze.

“I bet Lord Ilan has been throwing a fit trying to find you. Now, get over here you little abomination.”

They began to move forward, holding up the tongs and prepareing to grab you.

Success.

Scuttling from side to side as you stared down the approaching Dagura. Then, you feinted left and sprinted right, barely making it past as the Dagura stumbled to try and grab you.

"Damn it!"

They stumbled to the ground and then ran to give chase as you scurried along, taking a hard turn back down the tunnel you can.

“Shit no, get back here!”

The Daguran lunged forward, they arm shooting yo he tunnel behind and grabbing blind at you.

Failure

You feel a firm grip form around you back legs, and immediatly feel a force tugging you back down the tunnel.

“Ha, got ya. Tried to escape, but looks like you were to slow. Once I hand you over, Lord Ilan will insist I come to the festival with him. A Bronze mingling with a bunch of golds? Ooooh, it’ll be great!”

The Dagura sounded excited, her grip tightening as she began to pull you out of the tunnel.

With ease, you decide to simply abandon the legs that were currently the source of your problem. With a crack and a rip, you stumble forward as you hear a crash behind you. You scuttle yo the cave, bleeding from your now missing legs.

A string of curses are heard, but you ignore them as you get to what you think is the middle of the tunnel. Spending a few minutes to get comfortable, the familiar feeling of being cacooned arrives.

Incubation time cut in half

~12 hours later-

You break out of your cacoon, your legs immediatly feeling cramped in the tunnel. Your legs have become longer, allowing to to spread your weight out on surfaces and make it easier to climb with the hook like toes on each foot.

In addition, you can here you heart thumping like a drum for a few second, before you grow used to it and tune it out.

You are still in the tunnel, but you smell smoke and blood in all direction, and hear chaos behind you, where you had left that Dagura woman.

>Go up the tunnel to the Dome room?

>>
>>2196378
>>Go up the tunnel to the Dome room?
>>
>>2196379
>>2196380
>>2196381
You scuttle up the tunnel away from the chaos below, hearing metal clashing and frightening screeches. Eventually, you pop out of the tunnel into the Dome room, and immediatly notice a few things.

The flowers in the walls are gone, along with the crate that held them. Second, the corpses were gone.

Third, the Dome was broken open, with a hollow inside being revealed.

Fourth, The was a giant metal man standing over you, who had somehow remained a unnoticed by you until it was to late.

>Master Daguran, you are in danger here. Please allow me to escort you to the evacuation skiff.

It leans forward with its hand ready to grab you.

>Run?

At first you contemplated using your new ability to get out of reach of the metal creature, but the golem didn’t seem threatening so you decided to let it take you.

It picked you up carefully, holding you like a small child as it cradled you. It then began to stomp off towards the cacoon room.

>Hostile Entities approaching. Escort force now at 40% strength.

There was a large and loud rumble from down below that made your very core shake. The Golem kept walking unhindered by the earthquake

>16%. Defense has failed, units falling back to Skiff.

It’s pace was deliberate and heavy, the machine making good time simply due to its long stride. Eventually, it entered the cacoon room, which was now missing the pile of cacoons you had awoken to previously. At the tunnel that had gone uphill, the light was now gone and it was filled with the smashed and broken corpses of varying sizes of Dron.

You recognize a few centipedes similar to the one you saw Attack the princess when you had first awoke to the world.

Another golem is standing at the entrance, missing an arm and a good chunk of its torso melted beyond repair. It was covered head to toe in Dron blood, and seemed ready for more.

The golem carrying you turned and made its way towards the tunnel that lead downhill, which was significantly cooler than before.

>Halt, you are trespassing on-uuuuuurrrrrr

The golem guarding the other tunnel had begun to speak, but then seemed to be unable to form words as the sound of metal tearing open was heard.

The golem carrying you looked back, and began to speak.

>Halt, you are trespassing on Daguran territory. Leave or you will be killed and put on display.

>>”Can’t you metal toys say anything new?”

>Run for the downhill tunnel?

>Try to climb to the ceiling tunnel?

>Look back?

>Run for the Dome room tunnel?

>Other?

>>
>>2196392
>Try to climb to the ceiling tunnel?
>>
>>2196402
>>2196399
You jump from the Golem’s arms and latch onto the ceiling. Thanks to its rough surface, you easily find a grip, and begin climbing up the wall.

>>Oh, seems I missed a little one. I’ll fix that.

You feel an intense heat behind you, before suddenly hearing air being cut.

Near failure.

You jump to the side, barely avoiding a massive red blade that impaled the wall, sending a massive crack that nearly split the entire room. The shock of the attack nearly through you off the wall.

>>Hm, I missed...

>You have proven a threat to Master Daguran. You will be slaughtered.

Loud stomping was heard, followed by an annoyed sigh.

You still held on the wall, staring up to the cieling tunnel which still had light coming from it.

>Keep climbing?

>Go for the down hill tunnel?

>>
>>2196413
>>2196414
>>2196418
You look at the attacker, maneuvering you body to do so, and manage to watch as he grabs the golems massive fist and stops to oncoming attack in its tracks. Then, the golem’s fist begins to whine and creak, before being crushed in the Dron’s grip. With a free hand, the Dron pulled out a short thin red sword, similar to the one that almost killed you, and cut the Golem’s arm at the elbow, separating the golem from its now broken hand.

The Dron then put away the small blade, and began to reach for a large handle at his back.

The golem’s head began to glow red hot, then white hot, before a powerful beam of light fired out from its head at the Dron.

You are forced to look away from the attack, to avoid damaging your eyes.

You scuttle off the wall and mov ebehind the Golem, staying far enough away to avoid being squashed but close enough to both see and act when an oppurtunity revealed itself.

The beam of light from the golem cooled, and theDron was onc emore visible as the light faded away. Its left arm was completely charred and cooked, breaking to charcoal and ashe as he took a step back and grimaced.

>>Hmm, you must be the lead escort.

The golem didn't respond, instead forming his remaining arm into a heavy black blade and swinging at the now one armed Dron.

The Dron lifted their remaining hand, which grasped their own large red bladed sword, and caught the Golem's attack mid way, stopping it hard as the Golem put all its weight into the strike. The ground underneath the Dron cracked, but the Dron appeared unphased.

>>You're stronger than the others as well. Almost a shame I have to break you.

The burnt flesh where his left arm uised to be began to convulse, flesh growing from the wound rapidly.

>Attack now?

>Wait a little longer?

>retreat?

It would be wise as well to think as little as possible in case this one also has psychic abilities

>>2196495
if his arm and the blade are in mid clash and its stopped, all of the stress is in the arms, torso, to the leg, if we hit either the knee caps or the arm at this moment we might be able to lose the tension in his body, making the sword of the golem slice through him, or we can wait

With the strength ten times what you thought you were capable of, you laucned forward and slammed your pincers onto the Dron's knee, crushing your pincers against the flesh and chitin as you let out a war screech.

>24 damage! inflict. Enemy armor is.....20. 4 damage dealt

The Dron's eyes twitch, and he slightly shif this weight, the Golem's blade slamming down and embedding itself into the Dron's shoulder before the Dron stopped it again.

>>Hmmm, seems the little one is brave. I may feel bad about killing you now.

He said, pushing his arm up and the Golem's blade with it.

His regenerating arm was now up to a shoulder.

The Golem's head began to glow again, as it put more weight down on the blade trying to bring it down like a guilotine upon the Dron's body.

Onc emore putting everything you were into your Pincers, you jumped from the knee of the Dron as he looked at you curiously. Your pincers grabbe dhold of the Dron's arm at the elbow, and with an audible snap, you crushed it with all your force.

The Dron let out a hiss.

>31 minus 20 (Enemy armor) means 11 damage is done

His arm this time buckles completely, and the mass black iron sword of the Golem come scrashing down, cutting off the Dron's arm and slamming partially into his thigh.

He let out a roar of pain, then his eyes stared directly at you.

>>I have had enough of this.

His mouth opened wider than it should have, revealing rows and rows of teeth, as he suddenly lunged at you with his mouth, seeming ready to consume you in an instant.

In a flash, you jump away, towards the wall and away from the Dron as you hear the golem's head charging and the air burning around him. You feel great, lighter than air. You took on a powerful being and did some damage. you made a name for yourself. He would remember you for sure, and that was the first step to earning a title.

The wall began to close in as you neared the end of your jump arc, and put your legs forward. You would grab hold of it, then quickly decide which direction to go. One leg sretched out before you, and for a moment, you wondered where the rest were.

Then you hit the wall hard, bouncing off the stone and hitting the ground, sliding in your own blood across the room as the realization hit.

>you have taken 19 damage. 1/26 hp remaining. movement hampered.

Half your body was gone, mos tof legs with it. You manage to catch the armless dron crushing the portion he had taken from you in his mouth, his eye slocking to yours as he saw you watching him consume your flesh.

>>You will die little one.

Then, the air burned, and everything went white as the Golem's eye beam went off again, this time against the Dron who had no defense against it.

Ythe bright light blinds you, and then, feeling your mind grow hazy and weak, you black out.

>>End of Session

It’s warm, sweltering even, when your consciousness begins to claw its way out of the darkness. Your body ached, every inch of it feeling sensitive against the very air itself. You let out a little thrill of discomfort as you begin to open your eyes, light immediatly flooding your senses. Your eyes burn for a brief second, before the glare recedes and you are able to make things out. The light was coming from a circular hole in the wall, and though it was shining bright, it did not burn like you expected sunlight always would.

There is a low hum in the air, and as you stand, your feet make a sharp clicking sound as they tap against the smooth cold floor. Your eyes begin to adjust as you move outside of the light, seeing large containers made of bronze and covered in Daguran writing stacked to the ceiling.

>Attention, this is the Aero binder speaking. We have now exited the Manawastes and the no fly zone borders. It is now safe to leave your rooms and attend the viewing platforms.

The voice came from the sky, and echoed slightly in the room you were in. You could not see it’s source, and the metallic taste of the air felt wrong.

The room has a single door, the size of a Dagura from your experience, that has a odd handle. The door is made of the same metal as everything, so it was likely very heavy.

Additionally, you found a large cage with broken chains inside in a far corner of the room. The bars were melted, and there was blood and white fuzz on the ground and hanging off the bars. The blood goes off behind some crates, with a large gash cut into the metal of the floor right before the blood turns the corner.

As you pass the crates, you manage to examine them real quick. At the edges where locks of complex design, that seemed to hold the sides together so tightly there was barely a seam.

>Hazardous creatures contained. Do not open. Property of Lord Ilan of the Kellen merchant guild

The writing is in silver, with clashes slightly with the bronze metal.

Moving forward you follow the blood, and find it leading to a hole in the metal wall that lead to a cramped tunnel. The entrance was torn open, the metal ripped and bent inward, with the tunnel showing signs of something to big to fit inside forcing its way through.

Quickly scuttling across the room towards the window, you climbed up to it. You had some issue keeping a grip, but nothing to major. You put your face to the window and stared out, and instead of the tan and scorched gray of the Manawastes, you saw green. For miles and miles there was greens of every single shade, partnered with a sky that was the calmest blue you had ever seen. Your life had been short thus far, but had you never left the Manawastes, you think you would have lived a lesser life for not seeing this. Something deep in you mind felt overjoyed at the sight, so much so that your bounced happily for what felt like an eternity.

Finally, you managed to tear yourself away from the view, knowing you had work to do.

Grabbing a fragment of cage bar, you scuttled back over to the shaft, and tossed the bar inside. There was a loud and echoing clang of metal that rung for longer than you think it should have.

You waited for a response, for a movement, for anything that could dissuade you from entering. You received nothing. So, with a little worry in your step, you hopped into the shaft and headed in the direction of the rest of the ship.

Moving through the Duct, you see all sorts of turns and twists, with some paths leading straight up or straight down. Some grew to narrow for you to enter, forcing you to not even consider taking the path. Eventually, you come to a fork that forces you to decide.

>Go straight, where the blood and bent shaft show evidence of the entity from the cage?

Deciding to follow your nose, you scurry to the right towards the smells that made you little mouth water.

As you grew closer, you heard the clatter of dishes and loud voices talking over each other. Coming up to a grate, you looked down to see Dagura running about, cooking a movie food in quantities that you had never seen before except at the end of the great battle at your original colony. This food was prepared though, was seasoned and cooked.

Great Failure

With no control over yourself, you smash you pincers against the grate, denting it until you could grip ahold of it. With all your strength, you tear the grate away and dive down, slamming into a plate full of season slices of meat, surrounding a bowl full of a thick sauce.

The Dagura holding the tray immediatly drops it at the sudden spike of unknown force.

“Who dropped food?! Who do I need to punish in here?!” Shouted a short fat Dagura wearing a tall white hat and wielding barbed whip. He had a silver band around arm.

“Please sir wait, it wasn’t my- Agh” the dagura who had held the tray began to say, before a barbed whip slashed their arm. Around their arm was a black band.

“you again?! Looks like the last lesson didn’t....wait, what the hell is that?!”


On the floor, you were greedily munching on slices of heavenly meat and bathing in the sauce that had spilled everywhere.

“It’s a Dron!” Cried one frightened Dagura girl, while another Dagura near her picked up a large red hot Wok

“Kill it before it gets away!”

Success

Watching the clumsy, untrained man swing his pan at you made you realize just how precise and dangerous the Dron you had faced before were. You easily scuttle to the side, watching the young man trip over himself as his momentum carried him forward.

“Everyone, grab something! We need to kill this thing before Lord Ilan or one of his people find out!”

Chefs and assistants began to grab anything they could. knives, pans, pots, one even picked up an entire waiter’s trolley and lifted it into the air.

Massive success

With a fearsome display of colors and hissing, your fearsome little pincers snip snap horrifically. Seven Dagura drop their weapons and bolt from the room, while two more freeze up at your display, including the Silver arm band Dagura.

However, the Dagura lifting up the dining trolly and three others seemed only emboldened by your hissing, letting out roars of their own as they charged in for an attack.

A dining trolley is thrown at you, along with a knife, a pan, and a meat tenderizer mallet being swung at you.

Near failure

The barrage of attacks nearly clipped you, hoping back to avoid the crashing dining car, stumbling to avoid the wild stabs, sliding under the pan swing, and getting grazed by the meat tenderizer, the blunt hammer shattering the marble tile of the floor.

The trio nearest to you were preparing for another attack, while the one in the back was picking up another Dining trolley.

Without even moving from your spot, you simply lean slightly in various direction, each time perfectly dodging an attack as if it were not a threat.

When the second trolley came flying towards you, you dodged and ducked in just the right way to have it slam into the unbalanced trio of cooks nearest to you, sending to the ground in a heap with a heavy trolley on their backs and a sheepish cook looking at the mess they had made.

With a burst of speed, you climb up the wall with your prize, the chefs to disorderly to immediately set upon you. By the time you were crawling across the ceiling towards the vent you came from, the chefs finally managed to pick themselves up. One of them immediatly ran and grabbed a broom, and began to try and sweep you off the ceiling and back to the ground.

The other chefs seemed ready to attack you once you came back down.

Near failure

The broom smacked you in the face, and kept smacking you as you tried to orient yourself.

“Come on you little shit, fall down already.”

“Try going for the sides”

“No, Push the broom under him like a wedge.”

The Chefs tried and prided at you, and you almost fell off, but when the chance presented itself, you managed to shoot forward and into the vent, the chefs watching as you disappeared with their food.

“So...we chucked it into the incinerator right?”

“Yeah, sure was difficult. Glad we stay and did our duty while that silver tub of lard ran away.”

“Yeah, we should let Kolem know. Maybe she’ll put a recommendation in for us for our bravery.”

“They’ed Better, we saved the ship.”

“Yeah nah i’m Out guys, hope your lie works out.”

The voices begin to fade, some shouting occurring before you got back to the intersection.

>10 Biomass Gained. X2.1 for well cooked and stat bonus. 21 Biomass Gained.

With your food devour, and after cleaning yourself, you set out once more to follow the path of the apparent mystery guest.

Scuttling for around ten minutes, you come to a large opening that lead to some kind of room that held machines and pumps, loud noises of machinery filling the room and making it hard to hear. The trail of blood lead behind the largest machine.

Great success

You move quickly and silently, almost forgetting you were moving with how silent you were. You began to near the end of the trail, and could hear labored breath. The blood was fresher now, and you could see a pool of it around the corner.

You came to the corner, and peaked to see who it was you shared this ship with.

Lying slumped against the machine, missing their legs and half of one arm, was Snow. Their eyes were shut, and they seemed to be focusing really hard on something, likely anything besides their missing limbs.

Delicately, you step out from behind the corner, intentionally making yourself heard with your approach. Snow flinched at the sound, opening one eyes to stare at you with at first, then relief.

>I-it’s you...you survived the Prince of blades...Tha...i’m Glad...

They said, their face softening for a little bit, before it began to shift to anger.

>Why didn’t you just come back...we could have...we’ve been gone before he came...I could have escaped...saved her...

Snows good arm began to convulse and crack, the tips of the finger sharpening as their face shuddered and cracked as well

>It’s your fault!

Their shout rattled your mind, and distracted you as Snow slammed their fist at the floor next to you. Their arm had shattered the thin a frail carapace that had been covering it, instead now be large and frighting, clawed fingers ripping open the metal and the fingers stabbing through the floor. Snow’s face wa spartially contored, one of their eyes bitch black with a red dot instead of the normal yellow.

The yellow began to return, and their slowly shifted back to normality, as their expression turned to sadness and they leaned back once more.

They closed their eyes, and shuddered as they let out a long breath.

Snow opened their eye again, and chuckled.

>”Did you now? And I assume you also became ruler of all Dron also.

You insist, telling them to look upon your memory for proof. They smile weakly, and oblige, watching the events that unfolded. They looked surprised, impressed even, but when the memory ended they chuckled and had to cover their mouth from losing themselves to laughter.

You chitter angrily

>I-I’m sorry little one, but your naïveté is just so endearing. You don’t know anything about the Prince of Blades do you?

You think about saying that you knew you killed him, but opted to shake your head instead.

>”Oh how lucky are you, to not know of his terror. What you fought was not the Prince of Blades, but one of his blades themselves. His blades are what the Dagura would call fleshy golems, imitations Created by the Prince to help in his hunts. The blade you fought is not dead, in fact, in all likilhood, he has merely been slowed down...

You take in that fact, then ask just who the Prince of Blades was.

>”He’s a Dron Prince who appeared on day, and started hunting down the Royals of the various colonies. He’a Destroyed 6 so far, each of them more powerful than the last....the latest being my own...

Snow sighed, letting out a breath to steady themselves.

>as for who ‘she’ is....My mother, the queen of the colony. She wanted to stay and fight, you claim victory over the Prince of Blades. She was arrogant, and I knew she wouldn’t exit her cacoon in time...Ryalkos said he’ed offer asylum for me and her...that we’ed be...safe...now she’s dead because we took to long...

You question Ilan, and Snow’s anger returns.

>”That greedy fool...he changed the deal at the last second, saying I needed 300 in order to turkey please Ryalkos...I trust him...the mortals...they...they do and say things that they don’t mean... that aren’t true...he never planned to honor the deal Ryalkos and me agreed to...if I make it to Ryalkos, I tell him what Ilan has done...Ryalkos won’t betray me...

>Lose ten Biomass.

Working the Biomass through your body, you heave the clear goo you body had changed all you’ve eaten into, into the waiting hand of Snow.

>”I don’t think anyone’s cared for refined Biomass, but desperate time...

They sound, taking a breath, and then bringing the Biomass to their mouths and eating it quickly to try and avoid the taste.

After fighting back the gagging noises, snow laid back, and sighed “I’ll have to enter a cacoon of my own...I will be stuck inside it for at least two days...one to heal, and another to focus myself. Will you be alright?

>How do you respond?
>>
>>2202192
"I'll be fine, do you want me to protect you in the meantime?"
>>
>>2202192
Yeah. i will move you to a vent and wait there until you finish up healing. I have got enough biomass to last for two days.

Anything you know about this ship?
>>
>>2202192
"ive made it this far, ill be ok, i may even change when your done"
>>
>>2202192

>>
>>2202192

>>2202195
>>2202197
can be combined into:
''It's fine I will be alright how about you? Can you tell me anything about this ship or about the one who injured you so badly?''
>>
one snow becomes a cocoon we have to relocate her to the vents, then maybe create a hole in the window or somewhere else to distract pursuers thinking that she went that way, if possible using a blood trail and getting snows help with this first before hiding her away in the vents

>That's a good plan, but I my cacoon wil not fit in the vents. I need a room about as large as this to contain my cacoon."

Snow said, gesturing to the room you stood in, which was around 15 feet by high with the ceiling.

>"I may not look like it, but I'm a little needy when it comes to space.

They say with a regretful smile.

>"But the rest of the plan sounds good. I think I have enough strength to make it back to the room they put us all...but after that I'm not to sure, you might have to drag me back.

>Go with the plan?

>Think of a new plan?

>Leave Snow to their fate?
>>
>>2202192
"What happened to Horn-Dron-Bro?"
>>
>>2202324
Have Snow bust the window and attempt to leave a false trail as per the plan. Then have her/it drag themselves into the vents and rest there for a time.

We should go scout for an abandoned room to place Snow in for her to form a cocoon. I have a creeping suspicion this room is the incinerator (and so might be checked) and they'll surely come looking in the first room we were in to see if any other Dron have escaped after our escapade in the kitchen.
>>
>>2202339
Actually I wonder if a chrysalis couldn't be secured to the outside of the ship somehow...
>>
>>2202324
God I really don't know where to put him
>>
>>2202342

>>
>>2202324
Ugh
We move to the vents with snow, we create a hole in the window or somewhere else to distract pursuers (before moving to the vents with him) we will also leave the blood trail leading to the room snow is in right now, but clean up the blood trail he will leave while moving to the vents.
When we go and explore the room up and see if it's safe for snow to cocoon in

This seems the current consensus

You tell snow to wait a bit, and scuttle off back towards the intersection. When you get there, you notice the voices down the path were gone now. Silence came from that direction. Directly above you was the room with the odd and heavy noises, they sounds far heavier and faster than the room you found Snow in.

Hopping up onto the duct, you climbed your way upwards, until you entered a large room, larger than the one Snow was in. In the center was a massive sphere that every few seconds would open up and reveal a ball of light brighter than the sun yet it was cold. The sphere would then close and resume humming.

To the left side of the room, there was a heavy door like the one in the room you woke up in, with a darkened window next to it that stretched to the side about five feet.

Numerous machines, all connected to both the walls and the center sphere, went about their functions, all of it beyond your understanding at the moment.

>Explore the room?

With a thorough look around, you find a few interesting things.

First, at the far back of the room, there was a tube carrying liquid to the sphere in the center. While the sphere was cold, the tube was very warm, and it also shocked you with static when you got near it.

Second, the door appeared to be welded shut for some reason, the seams melted and fused together to seal the door.

Thirdly, you discovered a weird box with smaller boxes that could be pushed to make images appear on it. Reading what you could, you managed to garner the words “primary”, “auxiliary”, and “emergency” with flashing bars next to them.

Finally, you found about four different things you’re pretty sure you could pull on, so they must have been controls or ways To interact with the machine.

With strength that makes Snow give you a shocker but impressed look, you help them up the shaft with only a little effort. Their significantly cut down weight likely helped but you didn’t want to say so.

You quickly clean the trail you left behind, noticing Snow wasn’t actually to big to crawl through the vents.

Finally, Snow settles in new the warm tube, letting out a sigh as they started to seem tired.

>Stay safe little one, I hope to see you when I wake up again.

They said, already constructing their cacoon.

You nod to snow as they doze off, their cacoon growing and growing around them. When you thought there was enough to completely engulf Snow, it kept building more and more and more.

After about ten minutes, the cacoon touched the ceiling of the room and was very wide. The cacoon was larger than the one you found back at Snow’s colony by at least double.

Standing in awe for only a short time, you turn and decide to continue you adventure through the metal vehicle the dagura dragged you onto.

Scuttling over to the window, you press your face up against it and peer in as best as you can. From what little you can see through the tinted glass, you can see more weird boxes with little boxes that are pushed inside the room, along with chairs that were folded that extended from the floor.

There weren’t any lights on though.

Deciding not much could be done there, you return to the air duct and hop back down, soon finding your self at the intersection.

You scuttle back to the storage room, still exactly the same as when you left it. Plus the window you broke for good measure.

The room was cold and the air was thin. While in the ducts, you could see a few golems, thinner then the ones you saw at the colony, trying to seal the breath in the ship.

The door you had seen earlier was wide open.

You spend a good five minutes trying to pick the lock with your little claws, but the act proves impossible fro your big meaty claws.

In fact, you think you may have broken the lock and made it even harder to open now. There were plenty more locks t try, but this one was done for.

Great failure

You slam your claws against the lock wildly, aggressively trying to break free whatever was trapped within. Instead of damaging the lock though, you just made a lot of noise.

Noise that attracted the attention of the two golems.

The two golems that held up a wrench and a weird device that let out a small blue flame. They began to walk towards you.

Quickly, you reenter the room that held your fellow Dron. Everything was as you had left it, except for the window. It seems a light was shining through the dark glass, and the door inside was slightly open.

Going up to the window and peering inside, you see that the consoles inside have been turned on, and the lights had been left on as well.

The door on the opposite side of the room from the window was slightly open. There was a small metal rectangle looking object left on one of the chairs.

>>2217968
Moving to the console, you find the screen to be flashing red.

>[Bio-Hazard alert: please alert nearest purification Golem.]

Below the message, it showed a map of what you assumed was the machine you were currently on. It was rather large, three stories tall and about ten rooms long. A flashing icon with an exclamation point appeared over a room labeled “Engine room” as well as on another nearby room labeled “Atmospheric control”

There were a dozen other rooms, though a majority were “living quarters” and the largest room was the “Main Hall” which was only a few rooms away from the Engine room.

With some experimentation, you figure out how to make the screen focus on certain rooms, causing numbers such as number of occupants, weather power is being supplied, weather air is being supplied, as well as a bunch of numbers and statistics you didn’t quite understand. There is a little white square behind a lightning bolt symbol each time you select a room. Except for living rooms with no occupants, which seem to have no power supplie dan shave a black square behind a lightning bolt.

Deciding to leave the console for now, you wonder back down the vents and towards the last path you hadn’t taken. Scuttling down, you soon came to grate as you heard voices below.

“Did you see that purification Golem that came by? What an old model.”

“Yes, one of the old empire models, so you know it’s well made. Though I wonder why it’s active, think some vermin managed to sneak aboard?”

“Could Be Lord Ilan’s little collection in the hold. Perhaps he’s finally disposing of those ghastly things.”

“I saw it to atmospheric control though”

“Ah, than likily some mold or something that grew while we were docked in the Manawastes. It’s no matter, it’ll be handled soon.”

Below you, the room has maybe five Dagura dresses in fine clothing, conversing calmly with one another in a large well decorated room. Soft music filled the air, nothing to dance to but merely to let blend into the background.

The vent continued on ahead of you, taking a sharp turn downwards.

Tapping and searching rapidly, you finally find out where the alert was activated. A little button at the bottom corner showed “Active purges”. You quickly selected and cleared the purge assigned for the Engine room, making it so then prufication Golem would not target the room.

However, it was likily only a temporary fix, if whoever activated it the first time does it again.

With a bit of grace and using your memory from the previous lock, you hear a click and watch as the lock snap open, the side of the container beginning to seperate as each of the other locks snapped open on that side as well.

With a hiss of cold mist and the smell of cacoon, an avalanche of Dron chrysalis poured out onto the ground. They seemed solid, but they were already seeming to thaw out due to the sudden difference in temperature.

The two maintainable Golems looked back, their eyes turning read as they lifted up their tools. “warning, bio-hazard detected. Master Dagura, please vacate the area for your own safety.”

The golems began to march forward.

Deciding the old laws of the Manawastes still stood, you left the weak and defenseless to die as you took the three lucky cacoons with you up to the Engine room, placing them near Snow near the warmth of the tube to help them thaw. Then, you went back down to the hold.

The golems were still smashing, but were nearly finished with the cacoons that had come from the crate, there were about ten left.

Smeared on the ground was a literal bounty of dead Dron and left over Biomass, all yours for the taking.

One of the Golems began to try and activate the flame tool they held in their hand.

Quickly consuming the corpses, you gain some Biomass and a little something more.

With that out of the way, you are once more free to explore, wondering what it is you wanted to do.

Suddenly, the ship shook and seemed

Climbing out of the vent, you saw that the three Dron has exited Thier cacoon and we’re in the middle of enjoying their freedom.

One was greedily taking bits out of a a machine with a switch on it, chewing and swallow the metal with no problem what so ever.

A second one as screeching at the window, the glass vibrating and cracked slowly under its vocal battery.

A quick whoosh revealed the third, Who was hovering in the air seeming to be searching for something.

The metal eating Dron bit into the machine again, and the lights flickered, turned off, then turned back on with a loud thunk sound accompanying it.

You smash your pincers against the dron, making themstumble back as chunks of iron fell from their shell. The Dron let out a hiss and turned to face you, slamming its blunt for elimbs against the floor, denting it and causing sparks to fly out.

(Exceeded damage threshold of armor, enemy armor decreases by 3)

The Iron back dron let out a chittering roar as it charged forward, seeking to smash its metal covered clubs against your body.

For autism you can orally administer some water to the person. The excess
water will conduct electircal impulses more efficiently, especially salt water. If
you don't like that you can also train disease bacteria to only eat chromosome
twenty one by isolating the cells in a vat where all they can eat is that, then they
will only eat that and then die off. This works for lots of other diseases too, but

Your strike while the Iron is hot, and smash your pincers against the weakened body of Ironback, sending him to the ground.

Iron back is stunned, only for a second, before getting up and limping away before turning to face you. Letting out pitiful and pleading squeaks, it lowers its head to you, lowering its club limbs to the ground.

It pleads mercy, your instincts tell you this. It is yielding to your command. It feels right, feels like it should have always been like this.

However another feeling it pushing against your mind. A feeling of...proximity. Something was close, and you were close to something. You felt as if on the edge of a cliff, and the urge to jump filled you. You could feel your pincers wants to fall down, and crash against Ironback.

You felt so close to something magnificent...

The turmoil in you mind clouds your thoughts, your instinct conflicting with your heart. The feeling of commanding a lesser felt so right, as if it was an embrace made just for you. But your heart screamed and thrashed, the yearning maw of curiosity at what lies beyond the precipice nearly drowning out your mind.

You could not hear, could not see, and eventually, something gave in. In a flash, you surged forward. In an instant you raised your limb into the sky over the cowering Ironback, and for a second you questioned the choices you had made.

>Coup de Grace, enemy slain.....

Iron back lies dead, Their blood spilling out onto th ground. It was odd. You felt empty now, the leap from the precipice bringing only a...weightless feeling as you stood over the corpse of that which had surrendered to your will. Worry fills your mind, and you feel the judging glares of the other Dron baring down on you.
Then is you landed. Light filled the room, causing the Dron to screech our in fear, their shadows burning into the metal as magic cascaded over your body. Your body, no, a cage now as you felt yourself growing beyond it.

The song grows louder in your chest, filling every part of you mind and soul as you begin to feel the world pulse around you. As it reaches its crescendo, you begin to sing with it, your new voice sounding like honey to your new mind as you began to stand.

You feel the old world shed from your body, and when you finally open your eyes, you see your form still shifting.
