*As she entered skittering and squeezing under the massive doors as a bat, she would hear the faint sound of something metal with the sound of whistling or hissing steam in the far distance though however faint, the sound of metal clunking like clockwork every 3 seconds clunk!.... Clunk!! Clunk!! It sounded heavy, she would see a stone staircase descended into an archway of doors that lead into the main chamber of whatever was below which was a hallway, that opened up into a larger room, that had a door way at the back the arch ways were taller then dwarves could ever be being at 10-15 feet each, even the doorways and hallways, were massive, this would lead to an open space which then revealed a grand city, if she decided to venture deeper into the fortress.*

*The golem would step patrolling in the far distance steam shooting out from its back every time it stepped it looked a little worse for wear almost battle torn not like it would have been its prime lumbering around aimless with no true goal other then to forever guard this fort.
Randy
*Sat on the carriage as he hugged himself waiting for ai to return, the skies grew darker as grey clouds rolled over the once open skies, and snow began to pick up along with winds, he shivered and his teeth chattering slightly, he sniffled, and looked up for ai, to see if she was returning anytime soon, shoving his hands and arms under his cloak and beneath his shirt, he hoped ai was ok but it seemed nothing was out here perhaps she had found people? He would yell back to Roku and make sure she was alright after confirming she was he would nod and look ahead waiting for his beloved to return to him.*
Jamie
*The noises perplexed her, and made her little bat ears twist every which way. Crawling along the ceiling, shed eventually fly towards the sound whilst remaining as high up to the fortress ceiling as possible. She ran into other bats, but the dialect was very difficult to understand. These were not the native bats she was used to. She could make out bits and pieces... What was a bat eater? The bat eater they said repeatedly... And then she saw it. The **Bat eater** With a stature of metal. Perhaps... If she wasnt a bat it could be reasoned with. 

Skittering on down to the floor, she hid behind a building and peaked out at it just a little bit, before quickly darting back around. Ok Ai... Ok... Ok... Not hostile... Right?* "...Um.." *She took baby steps, and had the tiniest voice.* "Excuse me..?" *That was only a whisper now but she'd creep on up and place a hand gently on its foot... Seeing as thats all she could reach.* "Excuse me..?" *She'd give a light tilt of her head as she tried to speak up but fear would only let her volume go so loud.* "I'm- I'm wonder- I'm- I'm looking for somewhere me and my family can rest. Do you... Do you live here?" *Her tiny hands balled up the material of her coat as she swallowed hard* "My- my name is... Is Ai. Do you- can you help us?"
Booker
*The pieces of gears and metal shifted within the interior of the golem, sometimes the gears would occasionally grind and cause the golem to stop in its steps and freeze before stepping again this had caused the pauses in loud clunky steps, the golem stood at an astounding height of 15 feet a giant in its own right, soon it stepped again steam shooting out of his back then chest with the rattling of metal it had bright light like flashlights on either shoulder turned on the one on the left began to flicker as if it was damaged, soon the sounds of creaking metal turned and it looked down with its massive chest bending slightly over, to the sound of a voice, sparks would fly from its chest as the sound of mechanical voice box began to fire up but it's words were static at first then jumbled speaking in dwarvish then elvish then finally getting her language.* `"T-t flesh... T... T flesh.. B-being."`

*It's words kept breaking with the sounds of gears grinding the robot trying it's best to speak. The sound of whining steam could be heard from the back of the robot then hissing followed.* "F... Fleshy... M... Ust protect... Danger..."` *It would be very careful to not squish the flesh being, it was long time since flesh being had been here it had been decades a century maybe or two? It's large arm reaches forward as piece of the ceiling came falling down it would collide with its arm the stone falling to the sides as it protected ai a green light would flash as it successfully protected her.*
Jamie
*She flinched at every unfamiliar sound and grind she had never heard before... Tilting her head like a German Shepherd puppy trying to figure out what it was he... She assumed he... Was trying to say. She couldn't understand the dialect, and wasn't sure it could even speak until it finally reached common.* "Flesh being?" *Someone else? Somewhere else? Why did everyone here speak with broken dialect! Forst the bats... Now him!* "D-do you mean the bat eater???.." *Danger?? She quickly looked around and readied herself to fight, and only saw the ceiling when it was too late. She covered her head and closed her eyes... Only to have bits of tiny rubble fall into her hair as she was saved by this friendly giant. Dusting the rubish from her hair, she stood and looked up at him with a smile* "Thank you. My name is Ai... What is your name?" *Oh, thats right. Her family. But they would never be able to fit through those doors, and she wouldn't be able to push those massive things open.*

"Well, I will return shortly. I have to go get my family.." *She would curtsey, before running off but stopping. She didn't think he would need much in terms of gold or silver... Not that she had any on her anyway. But she could give him something as a means to say thank you so she would run back over, and remove the white ribbon from around her neck. She'd tie securely around his finger, and then give it a gently pat before running off. Once out of sight, she'd shift into a bat to make it faster. Creeping through the bottom of the door, she'd notice the temperature drop and how dark it was. That's alright... Faedon was nice and warm inside so she wasn't worried. The flight back jowever was trecherous... She couldn't fight back against the snow or wind very well and eventually made it back to the carriage. A one, small fluttering bat in the night landed on Faedon's lap and curled up in a small shivering ball. Lots of squeaks... Probably not very nice words, came from her as she demanded to know why he was out

In this cold. Did he not remember being sick previously? More bat squeak curse words as she preened herself.*
Booker
*Knelt down slowly scraping metal hitting the floor and ear rattling sound of grinding metal, it would speak again almost glitching as the gears grinded again as it moves the voice box firing to life.* `"P-preserve fl-lesh... Being"` *Was all it could get out it didn't fully have understanding of her tongue only pre made words for that dialect it would require listening to more of her words to begin learning the tongue being an automaton it would learn pretty quickly.* `"Name..."` *It had a long pause as the flash lights on either shoulders would illuminate the area around her with extremely bright artificial light something that hadn't been seen anywhere in the world. As the little flesh being did a strange movement and began to run off the golem slowly began to rise as it's stepped forward shaking the ground a bit with it's step to follow her but it was clunky in its step and slow but made up for in how big it was being able to clear the distance of many long sprinting strides.*

*It would stop once more as she tied a ribbon around a piece of metal on its hand it scanned the ribbon on its finger as it was given a pat on its hand it followed until she turned into a bat it's sensors were losing sight with her as she was so small the golem began to make it forward until the door as it spoke.* `"Daaanggggerrr."` *It was long distorted robotic voice, it had a new directive it was programmed to protect any flesh being, she fell under the classification of a being it could protect, it would scan the bats seeking to find the shifter to protect it but it left it walked to the doors and stood there guarding waiting for the flesh being to come back.*
Randy
*Saw her come back as she landed on his lap he lifted her up and placed her close to his chest and wrapped her inside his cloak as he entered the carriage and closed the door, he was shivering with her as he heard lots of squeaks coming from his cloak he went to the fireplace and kneeled down on both knees his nose and cheeks red and his hands felt frozen along with every part of his body but he still moved he opened his cloak as if understanding her squeaks he smiles warmly.* `"I'm not in the carriage because I'm was worried about you, I was afraid something may happen.. I understand I'm sorry."`

*He bowed his head to her in an apologetic manner as he was being chewed out in bat tongue she wasn't wrong it was stupid of him to not go inside earlier he sniffles softly as he looked cute with his sad face and truly sorry for his actions he was only so worried because of the recent events he wss more cautious then ever for the both of them.*
Rafael
*As he came in she heard ai squeaking over and over she laughed nearly falling out of her chair, as she ran to the door and locked it she would see how cold faedon was and how frozen he looked she would look for the hot drink ai made and would place it back into the kettle and over the flame until it was hot enough she would bring hot tea and faedons drink to the two of them she gently karate chopped faedons head.* `"Stuuuupid you should know not to make mommy mad, or be out in the cold like that you are hard headed."` *She giggles softly but was slightly serious she was finally able to have some sense of normalcy to talk to him again.* `"Mommy did you find anything is everything ok with our new location?"` *She asked*
Jamie
*When Faedon spoke, she squeaked back. Too worried over his blatant disregard for his health to figure out he couldn't understand her fully.* "And another thing!" *She said as she transformed back into her human form, seated on Faedons lap by the fireplace. Her wings were severely frostebitten, and would take a day to heal. She would not be able to fly again this night.* "What will we do if you get sick?? We are in the middle of nowhere- who would take care of Roku? I love you but sometimes my love I want to just-" *To Roku's question, her eyes lit up as she jumped up from his lap to speak of what she had found.*

"It was eerie, frightening and scary. Not a soul! A whole abandoned town with no one in sight or within ear shot. And then- there were these great giant doors! I had to crawl under them in my little bat form and camouflage with the other bats on the ceiling. I jeard strange, metal grinding noises and they came from this! This..." *She had never seen one before nor.Coukd she understand it.* "This- entity of metal and fire. Of steam and smoke! He- it's a large creature of- of- of... Of gesrs and gadgets! Loud and squeaky it spits sparks! But it speaks! He is a nice host, and I do not believe he will harm us. He saved me from a crumbling ceiling piece.." *She was very descriptive with her arm movements to help her try to explain.*

"Come! Before it gets any colder. The Thestrals need shelter... I will take us. Roku-" *She hesitated. She was instinctively going to ask her to watch over Faedon but it was still pretty awkward. Instead, she would give her another task.* "In your school books, see if you can find anything on the creature I described. I figured if we could repair him in some way, he might tell us what happened, if there are others." *She would trust this to her before heading out to guide the carriage to the doors before the winter breeze got too strong.*
Randy
*Put his shaky hands near the fire as he looked at her frostbitten wings he was worried and wanted her to be warmer, he shook his head slowly* `"I know, i wont do it again i promise, I'll be there careful i would not blame you i can be so hardheaded."` *Smiling weakly from the cold, as she jumped out of his lap would feel roku karate chop his head* `"Forgive me little one, I will be better I will take care of Roku no matter what you know that mhm."` 

*As ai began to explain it was a fully abandon town nothing in it, even the fort, he tilted his head his hands reaching up to the table where roku put his hot drink and placed his cold hands around the glass cup feeling it warm his hands* `"Thank you ai... For making it Thank you Roku, I really appreciate it."` *He smiles softly to her, his wonder began to grow the more she explained.* `"The dwarves are known for the marvel in engineering... I don't know anything about those things, strange metal grinding?"` *He didn't know of anything about that either this would all be new and wonder for him as well.* `"A creature that has gears and gadgets my love you are certain it won't kill us? I can't fight something so mysterious... It made of pure metal..."` *This was way out of his skill set but as she said it saved her and was a nice host he would trust her judgement he sneezed softly turning his face away from her.*
Rafael
*She smiles softly as he took the drink she turned* `"Your welcome! And you better not or I'll ask mommy that you sleep on the floor until you take care of yourself!"` *She didn't really know of any punishment for him but she puffed her cheeks out upset and thought yes that was a good punishment nodding her head, but as she explained to them everything she saw she looked excited almost jumping up with happiness and wonder* `"I wanna see I wanna see! I want to see the being of metal and fire! And of smoke how tall is it how does it move does it speak! Does it have a heart? Is it a dragon of sorts?? Metal and fire."` *She said all excited she would hear Faedon also interested in it, as she said they had to go she would be given a task to look in her school books for the creature she described she would run to them with strides as she giggles* `"I'll do my best to find something! It is damaged..? If it's hurt... Then... What caused it to be such a way..."` *Then again if it's still alive it probably beat whatever tried to kill it.*
