"Well, count me in." Niles answers, as he begins to study to the robot's broken form.

"I came here to see the councilor in the first place. Besides, I'd like to help get Torch back in order if I can."

Niels can tell that the robot was (as its babbling suggested) originally meant to effect repairs on complicated machinery. Some past event (presumably the Rain of Stars) done screwed it up good, and it could probably have done little more in combat than flail about ineffectually. Honestly, it's a wonder it could move at all. Oh, and it was shut down by a dagger and an arrow within the last minute or so. And someone with a musket blew its head up.

Well, that was easy! Enlali puts away her bardiche and says, "Of course. Anything to help." She walks towards the dwarf and offers her hand. "I'm Enlali. Did the Councillor tell you what he expected to find under the hill?"

"Of course," Manzei responds quietly, nodding. "I'd be happy to help any way I can."
She glances at the little girl. "I'll find him," she says, more to Val than to anyone else. "I promise."

"Basically, a ragtag team of do-gooders blunder into the spooky hill," came a voice from the shadows. A pair of horrible demon eyes sizzled as the shadows were churned by some weird demon aura. A total babe with piebald and scaled flesh stepped into the lit part of the room, where literally everybody had gathered.
"Get torn apart by monsters, or felled by some other trap," she adjusted her hooded cloak in a prim and nonthreatening manner. "and leave the way clear for me to actually find Khonnir and bring him back. Alive." She gave them a level, unimpressed look. "Unless you decide to stop running toward screaming things. I can't possibly help you if you are always trying so hard to die."

Val probably gasped or made some other small, annoying sound. shadar looked in her direction and attempted to look sympathetic, and succeeded in a disingenuous cringe. "I bet you were going to go after him too huh? Right after me?"

It was obvious that Val and shadar iogoth have some contemptuous relationship, although there was no doubt that an addition to their party would be a good idea. Nobody had even seen her earlier, acting as if she weren't even there. Imagine!

Niles took a good moment before responding.

"...and you are?"

Harskgun scowled as Shadar appeared, he still didn't fully trust the demon-touched bard. "Shadar." Turning back towards the human and the somewhat-human, he continued, "That would be Shadar, the Councillor's other daughter, so to speak. Why she was lurking in the shadows, I have no idea. As for what Khonnir expected to find under the hill, he didn't really tell anyone about what he's found down there before, but as Val said he did bring that contraption back from one of his previous trips into the hill."

Val sniffs at Shadar. "Nice of you to come running. Harskgun had to round up some total strangers to save me from a rampaging killer robot." Then she sighs and smiles. "Thanks, though. All of you. For helping me and going to rescue Daddy. I...I was about to close this place up without him here, but you guys can stay. I'm sure Daddy would want that. Now.... um.... I seem to have some cleaning up to do. You should probably go talk to the Council or something, they'll point you in the right direction."

Although most of her attention is on examining the robot, both to confirm that it is indeed dealt with and just to get a better look at it, Manzei's response to Shadar is merely to give her a warm smile, before turning to Val. "Are you going to be fine now? If there's anything you need after this, just let me know, alright?"

"Well and good." Niles concluded, stepping away from the robot's shattered form.

"Though, if we're about to step bravely into the unknown together, we should probably introduce ourselves." He said, stowing his bow, and giving his collar a reassuring pull.

"I am Niles Iskarion. Technologist, linguist, and I've been crawling around Numerian ruins since I could, well, crawl."

"Harskgun Ironhammer, an employee of the missing Councillor," the gruff dwarf replied, his cigar in hand, "I'm a smithy, and the only priest of Torag in these parts. I also make cigars on the side."

Looking up from where she was attending to her musket, Manizei gives those a warm smile, her mismatched brown and grey eyes taking the others in as they introduce themselves.
"Manizei of Kelesh," she introduces herself. "Worker of metal and knight of Shelyn."

Shadar rolled her eyes during Harskgun's brief introduction, purposely trying to look bored but secretly relieved that her gloomy hiding spot didn't beg questions from the others. Although shadar's demonic nature and bard-given worldliness had granted her a pessimistic personality, she was absolutely right this time. Things were going to get shitty. She nodded in turn after each introduction.

At least shitty things make a hell of a story.

Pulling up to her (in her opinion) very impressive height, Enlali says, "As I said, I'm Enlali." Then, after a momentary pause she looks distant. "I, uh. I don't really have a title. Or a job. Oh! I like messing around with scraps of metal! And gardening."

She paused again. This introduction did not end up being as impressive as she'd hoped it would be. She scratched at her matted hair and added, "I also hit stuff real good, so don't worry."
