Tyto: “What do we do this guard he is out cold?”
Faraine: “See those boxes in the wall.”
Faraine: “Throw him there.”
Greyside: “They don’t seem to be jailcells.”
Tyto: “We can look over them later.”
Tyto: “Now then, if everything is connected?”
Tyto: “The pipes, if all the steam stuff is moving through.”
Tyto: “It will have to pass by the control room, right?”
Faraine: “I cannot fault that logic.”
Greyside: “Tyto pick a pipe, it should get us there eventually.”
Tyto: “That one! Is seems to have a lot of stuff moving through it.”

Lord Micesh: “As this year’s parade winner I will be pursuing a policy of…”
Lord Micesh: “Greater levels of scrap reclamation!”
Tyto: “Good, Kyaren seems alright.”
Faraine: “He does not have too many guards.”
Greyside: “Getting people crazy enough to follow one’s antics, isn’t easy.”
Faraine: “He is not trying hard enough.”
Tyto: “Those guards are pretty close to Kyaren.”
Tyto: “We can’t charge. They will use her as a hostage.”
Tyto: “If we can get her some free space...”
Greyside: “I can try for the other stairs, maybe.”
Tyto: “We can crawl in.”
Faraine: “Hmmm his speech, he wants to get his ‘glory’.”
Faraine: “Looks like it is my turn, go when I say BEHIND…”
Faraine: “LORD MICESH!!!!”

Faraine: “You are pathetically short sighted Micesh!”
Lord Micesh: “OH, I am honoured, Princess, come to marvel at my win.” He bows to Faraine
Lord Micesh: “Attacking the embassy, trying to assassinate me, TWICE and kidnapping Kyaren.”
Faraine: “Once we are done with you, I bet the assembly will execute you.”
Lord Micesh: “Hardly, The construct going rogue was Lord Aretha’s.”
Lord Micesh: “My guards merely helped Kyaren after she was assaulted by wrongdoers.”
Kyaren: “That is a load of pig fat!”
Tyto: “Look you got your win. Just let Kyaren go.”
Lord Micesh: “Oh Tyto, Kyaren is doing so well in my service, why ruin that?”
Faraine: “You killed the scrapper eight!”
Lord Micesh: “I HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT!”
Kyaren: “His cousin was one of them!”
The Guards: give Lord Micesh an unkind leer.

Faraine: “Then, there is the murder of my Grandmother.”
Lord Micesh: “Grandmother? You mean Queen Whisper!? What are… you.”
Lord Micesh: with a pale realization he stiffens his pose.
Lord Micesh: “That is why you were there in the first place.”
Faraine: “Yes, you were their mysterious benefactor.”
Lord Micesh: “Nno, no, no, ten years ago, impossible!”
Lord Micesh: “I was just a low-grade apprentice back then!”
Lord Micesh: “Let us make a deal Princess. I can give you a name.”
Lord Micesh: “And all of the messy stuff is forgotten.”
Tyto: whispers ”We can’t trust him.”
Faraine: whispers back “I know.”
Faraine: “You think you can get away with killing a queen?”
Lord Micesh: “Enough, no one will ever hear your spurious claims!”
Faraine: “You left the flap off that pipe you have been yelling into.”
Lord Micesh: “What are you talking about?”
Faraine: “Not that one, the one behind you.”
Lord Micesh: “WHAT!”

Tyto: “Be right with you Kyaren!”
Kyaren: “Sure take your time.”
Faraine: “What do you know MICESH!”
Lord Micesh: “Guardssss!”

Faraine: “Gods help me I am through playing around.”
Lord Micesh: “BAH! Fine! They called themselves Drothnii”
Lord Micesh: “They were a foreign merchant, tried to clean up the scrapyard.”
Lord Micesh: “Drothnii vanished along with the scrapper 8 years ago.”
Faraine: “Drothnii!, so they sent the her?”
Lord Micesh: “Her?”
Faraine: “The maid assassin!”
Lord Micesh: “I don't know. She only just showed up.”
Lord Micesh: “She had the embassy blueprints; the collision was her idea.”
Faraine: “So you just took advantage of the situation?”
Lord Micesh: “Only a fool passes a golden opportuni-”
Faraine: “What now?”

Tyto: “They are attacking us!?”
Lord Micesh: “NONONONO!”
Lord Micesh: “Those blind morons, scared of my ingenuity!”
Lord Micesh: “KYAREN! The fuel intake!”
Kyaren: “We have to get out of here.”
Kyaren: “Those spheres are filled with Azralens, they keep us afloat.”
Tyto: “They can’t hit all of them.”
Kyaren: “Tyto, this thing is an unstable prototype.”
Tyto: “Gotcha! Run for our lives!”
Faraine: “Micesh you are going to…”
Faraine: “Greyside what you are doing?”
Greyside: “You got the name; we need to go NOW!”

Faraine: “Where are we running to?”
Tyto: “I got a peek at the schematics.”
Kyaren: “Near the base there are carriages, which ride down the anchor chains.”
Faraine: “So we just ride one of those down!”
Kyaren: “Assuming they function as designed.”
Kyaren: “Here! Over here!”
Tyto: “Ugh the door is jammed.”
Kyaren: “Alright Azralens flow check, breaks are rusty.”
Greyside: “Tyto use your pipe.”
Tyto: “Give me a blink, to pivot it. Ready!”
Faraine: “On three!”
Faraine: “1…2…3!”
Tyto: “Everyone in! “Kyaren what now?”
Kyaren: “We just need to pull that leaver!”

Tyto: “This is actually fun?”
Faraine: “HAHA!”
Faraine: “Look at the shiny water!”
Greyside: “Kyaren seriously, maybe slow it down.”
