Field Report
Ses-Hath watches the machines as they travel through their twisted path. The land has been changed irrevocably since they came here. Their lights blind the birds. Their walls reach ever higher.
But not too high for her.
Their walls would be easy to deal with. The larger units provide excellent stepping stones. Simple to destroy, and simpler to use.
The problem is the entry.
The only way into the engine's fortress is through a portal. That portal is only opened when creatures filled with its power manifest... something. Multiple objects made of sharp curves and familiar energy. Troublesome, but she could and would strike them down.
However...
Once it knows she is here, it will surely do whatever it can to shut down its system. Limit access. Another problem. Another complication.
Ses-Hath traces the edge of her spear, and a hollow chuckling sound issues from deep within her throat.
The solution, as all things arrayed against her, will be simple. Simply wait, wait for her enemies to gather. Then, she will make her entrance and crack open the engine's domain with one fell strike.
