((No need to panic)) "I found something interesting, see this?" Rook holds up the polyhedron, while pointing at the indent in the wall. "Assuming this gadget is a power source, I'll make the guess that this is the socket where it goes; but it's jammed up with a broken one. Having trouble prying it out though. I'm thinking that if we can plug this thing in, we can power the doors?"
"Yes. It's shut tight." He steps back and stares at the door with a frown. "We'll need to chisel through."
She retracts the blades on her left hand. "They may not look like it, but these things are surprisingly sturdy. Also," she slashes at the rock, "they are pretty sharp."
There's a pile of fungus and a collection of curious symbols. ~~~~~ @Omicron445 -Linette You notice Lescalius jump... And then notice the symbols... One of them nearly screams at you. You have to know what it means. It gently wraps you in a thick warm and fluffy bear hug. One massively clawed hand stroking your head as it does. It shrugs and goes over, just as one of the not-cattle feathered two-leg smart bird-mammal tries to break the door and fails. As does your friend it seems. A sallok gets in the way. "Guys, we cannot bicker over trivialities like this. We're obviously uneducated in your cult, just as you are about ours. Can we leave it at that please?" "Have you tried soldering it out? It looks pretty cold now." Considering you just came from an active mine, likely so. You cut through the stone earlier like butter... But your arm gets a painful jolt as your blades clang against the door. ((From the shock of hitting it. It didn't electrocute you or anything)) You left only a tiny nick in the door. Your blades are slightly scratched. A khloqdahl comes over and tries it with its pickaxe, only to end up getting a similar result. Their pick head is still sharp enough, but is slightly bent, while the door's stone now has a 1 inch hole in it. Not enough to get through at all.
"I thought about it." Rook draws the pistol-like nozzle of her plasma torch. "But I think the 'soldering iron' I brought for the job might be too much. Heh, well, nothing ventured," She puts on a pair heavy gloves and welding googles. "Nothing gained." She fires up the torch and tries to cut the broken polyhedron out of the socket.
Calico examines her claws and, deciding she can't do anything to fix them right now, retracts them. "Looks like we'll have to blow the thing open." ------------------------------ Logan hugs the creature back.
He thinks that the bird is cute for trying, walking up and patting it on the head. 'We can find way in later, for now let's go find something else interesting.'
((She can't understand him, he is speaking a different language, he is a Khloqdahl. Also, he was addressing the digger))
