(On a chaotic corner of Meleveon Creek, you seek refuge in the shattered wreck of a Pelican - the inside still warm from the explosion that crashed it)

The fighting outside draws ever closer... Then without warning an Automaton is launched through a hole in the wreck, smacking into the inside of the wreck

The fight had left it's arms and legs unusable for the time being, and the rest of it's systems utterly scrambled

It pipes up in a garbled and barely understandable voice, like an audio file corrupted and played

"O-O-O-Ow. Th-That h-h-h-h-h-hurt."

They try to get up to no avail before finally spotting you, narrowing their eyes
