Something huge walks through the woods toward the burned-down village/Church of Helios camp. There are flashing red lights and siren sounds coming from the box-like quadruped. It seems to be trying to make every creature in the area aware of its presence. Its long, spindly legs delicately maneuver around the trees even though it could easily just knock them down.

Hi everyone! I'm working up the will to finalize my signature, so... I guess this will be the signature for now
"Both." comes the voice again. "It has animal intelligence, but like most people, it requires a steady hand to direct it properly."
"Oh there are drivers. That's interesting." He flies around a bit more looking for an opening before landing and falling in step, "You are going to the village. Why?"
"To apply some pressure. Not to the village, obviously. By technicality, our company was banned from this town due to 'heresy,' but now we can rebuild the town ourselves and be in a prime spot to observe the phenomena going on at the Lord's Rest Inn."
*hunteros walks in the tavern* "can I get me some ale and some info?"
Sushi walks in with a basket of apples, "Yes, and then depends." She takes down a bottle of ale and tosses it over, "5 gold."
"Ill rather take the 2 gold I got from here last time. and the gold I give depends on the info. know a decent tenant I can rent from?"
"It's an upfront 3 gold starting price for information. We have rooms for rent." setting down the basket of apples she takes one and takes a bite, "You're in a guild territory, different rules, you're lucky I'm not asking you to pay in favors." Sushi laughs between mouthfuls

"And this machine will build it? How fast?"
"It is currently carrying a construction crew of about 30 humanoids with 30 automatons each. I estimate three weeks. I went with a 'three' theme for this project. Unfortunately, tripods are harder to build than quadrupeds, so here we are."

"A rule of threes. I understand." He attempts to tap on the machine, "But the town of Heresy will be under your control. Will you govern it peaceably, or take some form of revenge?"
"In a sense." The man says, "If a Mage gets out of hand, if a few takes too many kids, things like that, they send me."
*Thank you. I'm on mobile at the moment 😔*
"He takes kids?" She asked, brow raised.
*same, trying to keep stuff as short as possible lol*
"I've seen a lot in my years of work." He says
"Maybe you have, but ive seen more." She giggled "Leave them alone."
"That depends on their actions" He shrugs
"Well I don't like watching them get hurt." She narrowed her eyes.
"Feel free to not watch then." He says with what sounds like a smirk
She shoots a glare at him.
"Either way,I wouldn't kill them. That won't teach the lesson I seek them to learn"
"And that lesson is pain?" She snorts, shaking her head in disgust.
"Power is not a right. Ita something you gain to help people, not rule over them." He says simply, "I figured someone like you would understand that much."

"Revenge is a pitiable excuse to hurt one person, let alone a village." The machine stops and a door opens on the front. "Come inside. The loudspeaker takes power to run, and I'm hoping to save a few silver this quarter."

He manages to not fall over this time, somehow, despite how much smaller he is. Actually, he's a bit taller now. How did that happen?
