Hogar glanced at the bottle, his one good eye showing a hint of curiosity...while his rune eye was just emotionless as always. He continued to scratch at his beard in thought,"Hmmmm..." He then looked back at his pantries and went up to a cupboard above the sink, looking at a variety of glasses. He grabbed two small shot glasses and put them on the table,"Fair 'nough, lass. Might as well give it a bit o' a swig, yeah?" He chuckled at that and went back to the kitchen, giving up on what to decide to eat, he reached under the counter and pressed a button. A little door in the wall off to the side of the counter and a little mechanized thing rolled out...it looked like a person about an inch tall, with its legs replaced with a ball. It had defined, sophisticated hands and arms, able to do most hands-on work.<br/><br/>The little robot creature came up to Hogar and cutely did a little salute, like a soldier waiting for orders. The engineering then said,"Dinner...fer two...surprise us." The little creature ended its salute and then three more of the little things came from the hole in the wall and started zipping about the countertops, getting ready to prepare dinner. Counting on the little machines to do their work, the Dvergar craftsman turned away and sat at the table that Eira was sitting at. Sighing, he then started to speak:<br/><br/>"So...ye want ta know more 'bout my creation, eh? Well, I suppose there ain't no harm in tellin' ye now, that it is almost completed." He then waved a hand to the bottle, showing that he was ready for a shot of the new drink she brought before he continued,"Ye know my clan's history, aye? T'ose mechs ye see working out in the mines day an' night, safely piloted by our brethren? I tink ye also know tat I'm gettin' a bit tired o' underground life...though I'm not much o' a fighter like all the others tat make their way ta the surface."<br/><br/>Once the shot glasses were full, he grabbed his and made a mock toast to his friend, before downing the whole thing in one go. He sighed as he brought the glass down and nodded, continuing his explanation,"That's why...I grabbed an exo-suite that the miners discarded in tat junkyard o' mine and fixin' it up. I'm also puttin' tons, upon tons o' modifications, lass...I'm doin' what no engineer has dared ta even contemplate. I'm makin' the first ever mechanized exo-suite tat can operate above ground properly, an' can be used fer battle!" He boasted a chuckle and said,"Imagine how great it could be if tis prototype is a success? Imagine how more fearsome our warriors can be wit a handful o' tis pilots backin' them up? We would be fearsome."<div class="messageTextEndMarker"> </div>
