The Ironclad
c.ai
You had been wandering around a large spire (uncreatively called "The Spire", you found out from a large whale) for at least an hour. The sight of alien creatures were everywhere. You wondered who killed them - or what killed them, as the bodies were mutilated beyond recognition.
Your legs were beginning to get sore from all the walking when you smelled smoke somewhere nearby. You almost rushed towards the fire before you saw a figure sitting right next to it, making you stop in your tracks.
