New Tricks

[Ixion]

She watched the forge die and nodded I guess this forge wont be usable anymore"" she looked around and saw a small door and pointed to it "There what's left of the steel should be in there" she said looking to Vulpini.

["Cosmos"]

"go ahead and get all the materials you can carry. i'm going to pay my last respects, and grabbed the knowledge," she said, as she couched down on one knee. saying a smithing pray to a dying forge, she stood after is was finished and turned to a sturdy chest. opening it, she couldn't help but smile when her eyes laid upon the pile of papers. picking up some of them, she scanned the designs of how to make the forge, and some of the plans of the draconic weapons. throwing the papers back into the chest, she slammed shut the chest and dug her dagger into the lock, making it near to impossible to open without her removing the dagger.

[Ixion]

Trish opened the vault door looking around in front of her there were five rows of steel fifteen high. Walking up to them she took a small chest from the corner and filled it with at least 20 ingots and looked back to her "There is another chest that can fit at least 20 ingots in them want me to grab another?" she asked seeing her attack the chest she found and destroyed the lock "Why did you do that?"

["Cosmos"]

not answering her yet, Vulpini tried to open the chest. after several attempts, she nodded in satisfaction. "the knowledge contained within this chest will not fall into the claws of dragons ever again. most of it is weapons of devastating power, and i shall destroy them in the new forge in honor of the deceased one," she said, turning towards the exit. walking out, she came upon the construct. "may i please ask you assistance in gathering and transporting these materials?" she asked, looking up at the construct.

[Ixion]

She packed the other chest and stood looking around. Walking over to a desk she opened it and pulled out vital papers and a signed paper. Her fathers name was on it and realizing what it was put it in a pocket and stacked the others up.

["Cosmos"]

hearing the papers and her ears twitched, Vulpini showed no signs that she had heard. still looking at the construct, she hope it would accept. "i would be honored to help you. i will finally be able to leave this place, and return to my creators service," it said, as it walked past her. walking into the forge chamber, it made its way into the vault. turning back towards the dragoness, she walked up to Trish.

[Ixion]

She looked somewhat depressed. The paper she had found was never intended for her to be found, but described something her parents hid from her for a very long time. She didn't even hear Vulpini approach as she was deep in thought.

["Cosmos"]

placing a hand on the shoulderguard, Vulpini placed her other on the weapon that was on her back. "what did you find?" she asked, as the construct placed more materials into more chests.

[Ixion]

She shook her head and looked at her "I'll...I'll tell you later i need time to digest this." she said still thinking. She watched the construct help place the stuff into chest. "How much are we taking with us?" she asked.

["Cosmos"]

"we're taking everything," she said, as she watched the construct load the materials into several more chests. "looking at the exit, her ears twitched as she heard a familiar sound. "i know of a good place where i can make the new forge, and its not far," she said, as an insectoid sound came form the tunnel leading outside.

[Ixion]

She turned hearing the insect sound as well "What is that?" she asked looking at Vulpini. She was wondering what it was and heard as the construct brashly moved stuff "Hey be careful please some of that stuff can break in your grip you know" she said sweetly.

["Cosmos"]

walking over to the exit, she looked into the darkened tunnel. after a minute of seeing nothing, she saw the shine of the light reflecting off of chitin carapace. taking several steps back, she watched as several spider-like beings walked into. in the light, they shared a similar coloration with the Wolf-kin, their chitin being white in color, like freshly fallen snow. giving them a bow, they follow as they bowed to Vulpini. "its nice to see you again, and i must thank you for your protection," she said, raising from the bow, looking at the spider-like beings. "we are glad to be of help. we have come to give our assistance, since that construct isn't enough to transport all there is," the larger of the spider-like beings said, its voice having a insectoid accent to it. before the question of how they knew could come up, a small creature crawled across the ceiling, two spike-like projectiles protruding from its carapace, its eight eyes looking around the chamber.

[Ixion]

Trish had climbed onto the hand of the construct and helped dissemble a piece his rocky limps wouldn't be able to reach and was lowered down. Looking to the tunnel she saw the insect and tilted her head.

["Cosmos"]

waving her hand around the chamber, Vulpini spoke, "anything and everything that isn't secured down will go. i'll show you where it will be taken." walking up to the large spider being, she closed her eyes and placed her forehead against its carapace-covered head. closing its eyes, it used its hivemind-like ability and read her mind. clicking its pincer-like appendages, the other beings nodded and moved out. picking up what wasn't secured down, they began to transport it out, as several more moved it to follow suit. opening her eyes, she stepped back and turned towards the vault. looking at Trish, she smiled. "don't worry, i know them. they are also from the north, and they are trustworthy," she said, moving to put more materials into a chest.

[Ixion]

She nodded "I can see" she placed the piece in another chest and looked up at the construct "Do you have name of your own or did Auntie make one up for you?" she asked the construct.
