In the pod room
Attilisk:
"'Seeker' is definitely a word we can tattoo on you, friend. Perhaps on the hand you reach out to the world with? I can sketch you a design later."
As Attilisk continues his exploration of the room, awkwardly squeezing between pods, he comes to one that is broken open and empty. "Has this one been used then? Is it ok if I take it apart?"
Seeker holds out both hands and wiggles the fingers extravagantly. Then shrugs as Attilisk asks about the empty pod.
"
It is but a shell, a temporary Form. If you wish to reForm it, please do," Seeker says, wiggling its fingers still.
Q'nur:
Q'nur smiles again, filled with excitement and enthusiasm.
"A seeker of answers and questions, how wonderful.There was a creature, with tentacles. It climbed up through the earth and radiated fear and anger. Was that one of the brethren also?"
"
Oh. Yes. There was another, and it disturbed one of the pods and shared a Form. It did not seem to enjoy that there was another with its Form, and fled with much noise." Seeker sits down atop one of the other pods, then slides down the side of it, smiling slightly.

In the corridor
Eris:
Glancing toward one another at the emergence of the mini-Cube and its subsequent cubeception, Eris and Erin exchange grim smiles and re-enter the corridor from whence they fled the lizards, making their way towards the Truth
As Eris and Erin head down the corridor, they find a slightly rounded rectangular opening that leads into a short, smooth hallway that widens like funnel. And the end of that it opens into a huge room that is densely crowded with large, hard synth pods about the size of an aneen. Thick tubs, two each of differing colors and thicknesses, penetrates the pods at one end. About six pods away are three people, seemingly human, two of which are precisely the same!
