*Aethelus remains against the wall, stymied, for a long time, staring at the ceiling and floor and counting the lines in the marble. After what seems an interminable amount of time that probably wasn't more than an hour, he hears noises coming from outside, and a group of strange-looking people enters the building. They are dressed in helms and armour with a stylised wolf motif, and they wear tabards bearing two symbols, one Aethelus doesn't recognise and another that he does--a Syberys Dragonmark of Making. Something else seems off about these people, but he can't place his finger on it.*
*One of them looks puzzled at the construct and at Aethelus.*
"The draezil scouts said that the Clank was deactivated by an intruder, but here it stands. You," he looks at Aethelus, "Are you the one who disabled the Clank?"
